Snowy Tree Silhouette Gel Polish Nail Art

[@greerzzlybear]

SO, antlers have velvet (that's the technical term for the fuzz) on them as a way to supply blood to the growing tissues! They are the fastest growing bones on the planet (horns are made of keratin, antlers are bone) and take a lot of nutrients to grow. The velvet falls off eventually just in time for the rut where males compete for mating rights with the females. The males are so worn out by the rut however that they shed their antlers just before winter, but after the rut, so they can survive after having neglected their needs for food, water, and sleep. Female reindeer keep their antlers through winter to protect their young and fend off predators and only after having the safety of a herd and babies that can run will they shed their antlers. So Santa's reindeer are actually female ;) Thank you for coming to my ted talk, yes I am this much of a nerd about nature.

[@wonderwonder30]

What a great Tedtalk! I love this kind of stuff, learning something new everyday is fun 😊

[@CJGray-ib5tk]

Interesting. I already knew some of this but not all. Thanks for sharing this info 😊

[@perfectlyimperfectpressons]

I knew some of this information because it applies to whitetail deer as well. I grew up in the country and just about everyone that I knew hunted, so I know a bit of knowledge about whitetails. But it's so interesting to hear this stuff about reindeer!!

[@KirstyMeakin]

Wow this was so interesting to read. I’ve learnt so much about reindeer wow thank you 😊

[@ella_cinder4361]

Which also means; all of Santa's reindeer are female. Just thought I'd add a little more... interesting information. 😏

[@kristineolver3268]

I love these nails.. antlers have velvet on them while they are growing and it sheds in the beginning of fall.. deer rub the antlers on trees and such to get it off and it bleeds... it's actually quite a sight

[@kathytarman2302]

This design is so cool. I love it. You are so talented. You are a true artist. Thank you for sharing your wonderful designs. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@janfranklin2114]

The fuzz on a deer's antlers is referred to as velvet. They shed their antlers and when new ones grow generally larger each year the rack is larger than the previous year. This is a stunning design.

[@EK-wi2me]

One of my favorites

[@Nailaddictweirdo]

U r the best, awsomest, most wow ever, I keep dreaming about making one perfect nail in my lifetime🙈

Love these nails, my sad would love them too, as he is a hunter, he was also a coal miner, retired now thank heavens. The color reminds me of coal and slate. Also of the old chalk boards they had in my say at school. Beautiful just beautiful!

Fay has Matte! Wouldn't it be Awesome if Fay started to love matte top coat and then always wanted it? Merry Christmas to Everyone!

[@missbabyj9119]

I have been watching ur channel for a long time and u have created some AMAZING sets but I seriously think this is my fav... idk it's hard to choose but this is so cool and beautiful 😍!!! U should try this technique with skulls and smoke, I think that'd be awesome and this look would be perfect for that. Or even like a spooky graveyard scene!?!

[@erintraicene7422]

This is just stunning and could be implemented in so many designs.

[@cherylstevens4256]

It is pronounced deer. Even when saying pleural it deer. Lol. These are absolutely awesome

[@Uqgwocuqmspwnxyalc]

Hey kirst! I love your videos you’re so creative I love this look so much ☺️☺️ Merry Christmas!!!! I ordered your nail lamp and I can’t wait for it! I have a few of your gel polish’s but I mostly have beetles, I was wondering if you already have a video of what bands work well with your lamp? If not would you consider making one? I am planning on getting a lot more of your polish’s btw they are the absolute best!

[@scottydoggymama]

Merry Christmas

[@yvonneburns2786]

It's called velvet on the antlers, until rutting season.

[@nicolemartinboone5699]

Antlers ARE actually bone and not made of Keratin like hair and nails. They do however have a fuzzy velvet coating, and they have many blood vessels running along the surface of the bone. When they shed it can be quit a gruesome scene. The bloody, exposed bone with ropes of flesh and fur dangling is a pretty gory sight if you’re lucky enough to see it.

[@justjona3968]

So just wondering how else could you use this design through out the year. Like could the be a spring field version?

[@Nails_by_mathilda_]

What do you mean stamper? It's free handed, full tutorial on her instagram

[@user-oz7oz3nz5f]

Hey, sorry for the dumb question, but if you matte top coat over sparkles, will you still get the sparkle from the sparkle, if that makes any sense at all, or will it just go dull ?

[@Nails_By_Kimberlee]

It won't be as sparkly after matte. Just depends on what kind of sparkle you're talking about, honestly. But most of them (glitter, foil, mylar, etc) will still have a shine under the matte. It's best to try your intended design out on a practice tip first so you know.

I always get so happy when I see a new video from you. However, Ficken youtube sucks, and I'm not getting notifications again.

[@shannajenkins6289]

I love love love this design but I just feel the matte top coat takes the wow away from the design, it always reminds me of how your toe nails look after you've been in the sea and the polish has been worn away by the sand!
