I was filming the water marble nail art tutorial
the other day and I got this amazing idea

I realized that if you let the polish completely
dry on the water, you actually get these cute

little stickers that you can stick on any
flat surface that you want.

You can decorate mirrors, windows or candles
like me.

And of course you can play with different
colors and different designs.

Today I created a heart, a circle design,
a flower and a star.

Water marbling is a cool technique used in
nail art.

You drip drops of nail polish to the water
surface, draw a design and then dip the finger

However, in this tutorial I'll show you how
you can use water marble technique to create

stickers to decorate your room or any flat
surface, such as glass.

Instead of dipping your finger in the water,
just leave the polish on the water surface

In this video you'll learn how to create different
designs, how to take the dried polish out

of the water and how to crop the edge to get
this super cool sticker.

By the way excuse my crazy nails in this video,
I was filming some nail art tutorials and

that's why my nails are full of different
designs.

Before it was rather boring, but now it looks
so much better!

The coolest feature is that the sticker is
semitransparent and it glows in different

Also, you don't need any glue to attach the
sticker to the surface -- water in combination

Now let's see the water marble process step
by step and make different designs.

Start off with room temperature water and
drip drops of different colored polishes on

Not all polishes work with water marbling,
so test which ones you can use first.

I have a video on my channel that gives you
a lot of tips on water marbling, so check

When you have your bull's eye ready it's time
to draw some designs.

For this you need a pointy tool like a needle
or a toothpick.

Drag the toothpick from the center out like
so and repeat this step all the way around

This time drag the pointy tool towards the
center!

Remember to start dragging from the third
ring of the polish.

But again - you can find all these rules in
my water marble for beginner's tutorial.

And this is how you get a beautiful flower!

To make a heart design, simply drag the toothpick
in a straight line through the polish.

Or you can just let the polish be and you'll
get the circles design, which looks awesome

Now we need to leave the designs in water
until they are completely dry.

I like playing with different colors when
making these decorations, the brighter is

When the polish dries it normally gets a bit
wrinkly on the edges, but don't worry, as

soon as you pull it out of the water these
wrinkles will disappear.

Carefully take the water marble design out
of the water and you can instantly stick it

I like to decorate these simple glass candles.

As long as the back of the sticker is wet,
it will stick firmly to any flat surface!

It works especially well on mirrors, windows
and other glass surfaces.

Here I didn't trim the outer edge, but it
still looks just as lovely.

Later, I'll show you how to trim the outer
edge to get even more polished design.

Even though the sticker is very thin it is
actually not that sensitive.

After several hours the sticker sticks so
firmly to the glass that you need to use an

Ok, now I'll show you how to make the decorations
even neater by trimming the outer edge.

What I like the most with these water marbling
decorations is that you don't really need

And we girls normally have plenty of those
at home, right?

So these awesome stickers are super easy and
simple to make and the best part is that they

Also, these decorations are done in no time
and always turn out cool and unique.

When the sticker is completely dry, take it
out of the water and start cutting the outer

Hold the sticker very gently so you don't
tear it apart.

I find that small scissors made for trimming
nails work best for this task and give you

See how neat and cute this sticker looks!

You can also cut out the heart when you are
making a heart design, or a star.

You can basically make any sorts of shapes
and designs with them.

Especially since here in Norway winters are
very long and dark I like the cozy and warm

I am seriously in love with this water marble
room decor technique.

You can also decorate vases, brush holders,
flowerpots.

I have been having so much fun with all of
these lately.

And look how cute this DIY looks in front
of a burning flame!

The sticker shows most of its charm when the
lights are off.

It gives that romantic and relaxed feel to
your room.

The light coming from the candle will reflect
colors of polish you've chosen for water marbling.

I hope you'll give this cool technique a try.

I was decorating all my mirrors and candles
with these stickers!
