Hello and welcome back! Hope you are all having a wonderful Tuesday! Today I am actually guest posting over on the Heroine NYC blog which I am super excited about! So if you want to see step by step photos of how I did this mani be sure to head over here to see it!

Over here though I thought I would go into more detail of how you paint and or draw holly, because I don't know about you but I feel like the leaves can be a bit tricky! So I thought I would share my step by step process.

Step by Step : How to Draw or Paint Christmas Holly

Step 1 : Make 3 circle! I like to do 2 on top and then one centered below the first 2!
