Holiday-Ready Nails: Modern Christmas Nail Designs You’ll Love

I love seasonal nail designs and I am always looking for new, more modern takes on seasonal nail designs that don’t feel really overdone and incorporate modern colors.

Thanks to social media, I found so many festive Christmas nail designs that play with traditional colors like green and red but also designs that use fun colors like baby blue.

You’ll definitely find something you love in this list.
