How to Make Fun Nail Art with Klutz Books

If any of you have little girls in the house who are constantly asking you to paint their nails then I have the most awesome product to show you today.

I have one 4 year old and one two year old who loooove to paint their nails, and let's face it so do I...it's a great way to spend some mommy-daughter time with them! Since I am part of the Klutz ambassador program (more on that here) we received the book Nail Art from Klutz books it was right up our girlie girl alley.  This book is great for their age group (and older girls too, of course!) especially Eloise, my two year old, since she is more fidgety and doesn't like to sit still for long.  The paint dries super fast :-) 

The book has Klutz brand's new packaging which keeps the products right with the book so that they are easy for wrapping, storing, and stacking.  This Nail Art book comes with 6 different nail colors so you don't have to buy an array of nail polish colors to start designing your own pretty nails.

And the bonus is that the nail color is peel-off, water-based, and non-toxic.  So it makes painting the nails of small children easier...and waaaay less smelly!

In true Klutz fashion, the book comes with great color graphics for mixing your own colors...

And teaches you basic techniques on how to apply the nail color.  It also shows you how to work with glitter and other nail add-ons using Klutz's fun and quirky humor.

There are quite a few pages of nail inspiration to try....this will keep our nails pretty for quite a while!

And of course there are tons of step-by-step tutorial on how to make designs like teddy bears!
Here is more about the book from Klutz:

Nail Art
A fully photographic instruction book, packed full of tips, techniques, and hundreds of designs to paint on fingernails (and toenails, too). No artistic genius required. Comes with six non-toxic, peel-off nail colors — our exclusive formula. And as we embark on a second decade of nail art mania, we've updated the book with a fresh, new cover and kept the time-tested, full-color, inspirational photographic feast inside just as it is.

Comes With: 6 water-based, non-toxic nail colors

For ages 6 and up
Price: $21.95


This book received a huge seal of approval from my little Penelope.  She loved flipping through the pages and picking out ideas for her and her sister.  We have wrote out a list that we are going to try every week and are most excited about the Christmas nail art options the book offers :-)

And don't forget, Klutz is launching a Wrap It Up with Klutz! Sweepstakes this fall.  They are giving away 1000 prizes over the next 10 weeks-10 fans each week will win a prize pack featuring 10 Klutz Books!
The best part is, you can enter once per week, here, on the Klutz Facebook page to win a variety of titles from Klutz.  The weekly sweeps start every Monday and you can enter through November 26, 2012.

You will see a few more posts from me over the next few months highlighting more of these great products.  If you want to see more titles from Klutz click here, and make sure to keep up with Klutz on Facebook here!

Fun! I actually got that book as a gift when I was in my early teens, they've updated the cover/packaging but the book looks the same as I remember inside! It's a classic! Well I mean not a classic novel but a classic Klutz book. ;)
