StepByStep - [Episode1] Arabic Acrylic Nails

OMG...I had been so sick & bed-ridden to post. Now that I'm fiddly-fit again, here's whatz promised... the Step-by-Step of the Arabic Acrylic Nail Extension design posted earlier.

Basically this design was inspired by the black-silk & gold curtain, known as the kiswah, that covers the Kaaba. The band of gold-embroidered calligraphy runs around the whole Kaaba, about two-thirds of the way up. The text includes the Islamic declaration of faith.

I'm not Muslim, but was fascinated by the documentary on DISCOVERY about their annual Hajj Pilgrim to mecca; especially the part where the pilgrims goes around the Kaaba, it's a massive number of people at one place... quite worrying to watch. Maybe I'm thinking too much but I guess I'm worried about a stampede happening.. haha.
Anyway, back to the step-by-steps...I've posted the nail extension part first.
The rest of the nail design.. after I return Singapore.虹
