We love this idea because it is super cute for St Patrick’s day but you could also wear the colors for different occasions. You could recreate a similar look or maybe just use green glitter.

Shamrocks are symbols of Ireland. Our next idea features a glam shamrock design. 3 of the nails are painted in a vibrant green, one nail is covered in gems and one nail has a small shamrock design. There are a few ways you could recreate nails like these. You could have all 3 designs or maybe just choose one you like. Either way gems and shamrocks are perfect for a St Patrick’s day celebration.

3. Polka Dots and Shamrocks
Next, we have another cute shamrock design. Instead of just one shamrock two of the nails have a repeat pattern. You could create this pattern with a stencil or with stickers. We love the colors used and like the use of polka dots as it gives the nails a unique look. For your nails you could just have the shamrocks or have a go at the 3 different designs.

Nails like these will also look stylish after the celebrations because the clover design is subtle.

Next, we have one of the coolest nail designs. These nails were created with shamrocks or clovers. The shamrocks were picked and pressed in a notebook for a few days until dry. Then they were placed onto the nails. This is a fun and unique idea!
