Acrylic Chick Nails Design for Easter
Materials Needed:
- Acrylic nail kit (includes acrylic powder, liquid monomer, and brush)
- Nail forms or tips
- Base coat
- Yellow, orange, white, and black acrylic paint or nail polish
- Small detail brush
- Top coat
- Dotting tool (optional)
1. Prep and Shape Nails
Before we begin, make sure your nails are clean and dry. Push back your cuticles and file your nails to your desired shape. If using nail tips, apply them to your natural nails following the instructions on the package.
2. Apply Base Coat and Form/Acrylic Layer
Apply a thin layer of base coat to your natural nails or nail tips. Next, apply a form or use the brush to shape a small ball of acrylic onto each nail. This will act as the base for our chick design.

3. Create the Chick Body
Using yellow acrylic paint or polish, paint an oval shape at the top center of each nail and leave it to dry.
This will be the body of our chick.
4. Add Wings and Feet
Using orange acrylic paint or polish, create small triangle shapes on either side of the body for the wings. Then, using the same color, add two small lines at the bottom of each nail for the feet.
5. Detail with White Acrylic Paint
Using white acrylic paint or polish, add small dots for the eyes and a line for the beak on each chick. You can also use a dotting tool to create these details if you have one.
6. Add Finishing Touches
To complete the look, use black acrylic paint or polish to add tiny pupils to each eye. Let everything dry completely before moving on to the last step.
7. Seal with Top Coat
Once your design is dry, apply a layer of top coat over each nail. This will seal in your acrylics and make your design last longer.
Now you have adorable little chicks adorning your nails for Easter! These designs are perfect for both adults and kids and can even be customized with different colors or accessories. Have fun experimenting and showing off your festive Easter nails! Happy holidays!
Additional Tips:
- If you’re not comfortable using acrylic paints, you can also use regular nail polish to create this design.
- Play around with different colors for the chick’s body and details. Pastel shades are perfect for Easter!
- You can add a touch of shimmer by using a glitter top coat over your design.
- If you want to make your chicks even cuter, add tiny bows or flowers on their heads using the dotting tool.
- Don’t worry about making your chick designs perfect. The imperfections add to the charm and whimsy of this holiday look! Happy crafting!
