Hydro Dipping using Nail Polish
Because nail polish can be a little strong, I suggest working in a ventilated area. I used my garage with the door up. I urge you to plan ahead. You'll see why at the end.

| What a kaleidoscope of colors! |
After thoughts
- I hydro dipped beads in the past using a foam cup for the water and polish. Don't use foam. The polish eats out the foam and you'll have a big mess.
- I didn't use a sealant after the colors dried. I'm unsure as to whether it's needed or not. My item is being used indoors.
- Wear a pair of gloves not just one (like I did 🙁) You never know when you'll need the other hand.
I'm fond of azure blue but, not this much. Try as I might it has been difficult trying to remove this from my hands. That's why I said PLAN AHEAD. 😟
There's more than one way to hydro dip. Numerous items can be dipped such as tumblers, wine glasses, Christmas ornaments, etc.
Here are some links to videos of hydro dipping;
