It’s Christmas, the stockings are carefully hung by the mantel, and your nails are polished to festive perfection. If you’ve achieved a shade of red or green nail polish (or other traditional Christmas nail polish colors), we recommend trying designs that are a little more jolly for the big day.
We’re feeling inspired by the custom Christmas nail art we’ve seen on the Internet, which includes designs you can easily DIY as well as ornate details you might want to have a professional execute. But what should you try first?
Fortunately, there are a plethora of adorable Christmas nail art options to choose from. This list of impressive manicures includes everything from candy canes to glitter and ornaments to snowflakes.
If a design on every nail seems too ambitious (or just too much! ), we also offer some designs that include accent nails (or a “party” nail) to spice things up without being too loud. There are also easier-than-ever nail stickers and decals for a quick holiday manicure. It’s certainly the season for glam.
Without further ado, here are the cutest ways to paint your nails this winter.
12 Best Short Red Christmas Nail Ideas Of 2022
Short Square Red Nails
One other important guest who will visit us along with Santa is Mr. Snowman. If Rudolf and our kind, chubby, old man are always depicted in numerous nail designs, this friendly snowy guy is always left out. Hence, why not dedicate this year to a special welcome for Mr. Snowman, too?
Short Red Almond Nails
This is a simple design that can be drawn on other nail shapes as well.
Short Red Coffin Nails
This one may look easy to do. However, if you are not dexterous, it is better to leave this to the professionals.
Short Dark Red Nails
It is funny to see only Santa’s face being portrayed in 3D. The pure dark red nails and fine white snowflake act well as complementary details to highlight Santa.
Red Acrylic Nails Short
DIY knitted mittens by our grandparents are very special. Knowing how much time they spend just to make you a pair of special Christmas-themed gloves, you should have these ideas drawn on your nails to surprise them.
Red And Black Nails Short
Instead of using pure dark black, you can try combining red with other lighter shades of it to create a much more playful design.
Short Red Nails With Glitter
I love the way the artist used glitter in this nail art. Instead of spreading it evenly on the nails, he or she decided to depict different shapes with it, very clever and creative.
Short Red Ombre Nails
Why stick with the classic red ombre using nail polish? Why not try red glitter instead?
Short Red Stiletto Nails
Dark red is alluring and festive at the same time. If you want to maintain the impression of a mature, fashionable woman, try this color!
Cute Short Red Nails
Bright red chrome is the most festive color for Christmas. Wearing this nail art means that you would like to go all out and enjoy your exciting night to the fullest.
Red And Gold Nails Short
Red and gold do not necessarily create a sexy design. This combination can also represent cuteness and minimalism.
Red And White Nails Short
This one reminds me of the cozy red sweatshirt that my grandma gave me last Christmas. If you have something similar, do not miss this opportunity to sport these two pairs of fashion items at the dinner at your grandparents’ house!
Although this time of the year only occurs once, our manicurists have brilliantly done everything they can and shared their most beautiful designs. Considering how much effort they put in and how big this celebration is, I do not think of any reason not to rock fabulous red Christmas nails on your New Year’s Eve. Hurry up and decorate your blank little canvas with these impressive pieces of art!
