Types of monograms
Monograms are drawn in several ways, and we have collected the simplest of them.
With powder

All the excess powder will fall off the nail and will remain only where the polish was, thereby forming a beautiful pattern.
With glitter
The master performs the same manipulations, only he uses sparkles as a material for the design.
Acrylic paints
