My first Splatter Mani :)

Hello everyone! :)
I miss blogging already....I count the days til the end of the month, then I´m free and I will have more time for my blog :)
Some new trend in the nail polish community is the so-called splatter manicure. It´s so easy to achieve and it creates an awesome effect on your nails. So I started with a gold-beige shimmery polish as a base, it´s S-he 320.The color is something in between picture 1 and 2. I did 2 coats, the application was flawless and it dried super fast! After 5 minutes I accidently bumped my index finger against my table and ...nothing! It dried completely. I was fascinated :D
To create this effect, all you have to do is, take a straw, dip it in some nail polish so that it creates a thin layer over the hole. Now you have to blow (from the other side of the straw :D) and the nail polish will scatter all over your nail. Make sure to tape off the skin around the nail, just so you don´t have to clean up that much :) Repeat this step til you like the result and your done :)
How do you like it ? :) Have you tried a splatter mani yet?
Thanks for reading and have a great day!
