Thanksgiving Nail Designs 2022

Let’s have a look at the two main questions that come to mind when we are picking out a new nail style. First, let’s focus on colours.

What nail colour is good for Thanksgiving?

When you are wondering what colour to have your nails done in, there is a variety to choose from. The traditional colours of the Thanksgiving holiday are orange, yellow, brown, red, and green. Any combination between these festive colours will capture the holiday spirit that you wish to acquire for this fall season! Or you can always go with a single one or maybe two colours for your nails, but be careful with the red and green combination, so you don’t end up with Christmas-themed nails!

There is a saying that the colour orange is for the pumpkin, yellow is the corn, brown is the turkey with stuffing to adorn. Red are the cranberries, green are the beans—five delicious colours in a feast of my dreams! Hah! So pick your colours and design the nails of your dreams!

You can also add some sparkle to mix things up! I personally like more simple and elegant designs, preferably in red, as that is my all-time favourite colour! Burgundy red and gold sparkle never looked better!

Another elegant nail design that you can also do at home by yourself! Paint each nail in coppery orange. Then add some sparkly orange polish to two or three of your nails and finish up with a top coat. Stylish and festive at the same time!

The length and shape of the nails is can also be quite important when choosing the colour and style that would best suit you. Some designs just look better when there is more space to work with. This year, it appears that most of the nail trends involve ballerina/tapered coffin-shaped nails. However, if you are like me and can’t grow long and strong nails, you can always shape them in a rounded or square shape to keep them in better health.

Now let’s touch upon the second question—decorations.

What decorations to use for a thanksgiving nail design?

As Thanksgiving is a celebration that occurs during fall, there is an abundance of ideas for decorations to pick from! From colourful leaves to pumpkins, mushrooms, and even turkeys! What more says Thanksgiving than a little adorable turkey painted as e decoration on your nail?! This is a little tricky design to do by yourself, but if you think you have the skill, go for it!
