Traditional Turkey Toes
Golden Brown Turkeys
Nothing says Thanksgiving like a plump, golden-brown turkey, and you can recreate that on your nails too! Start with a base of nude or light brown polish. Then, use a small black brush to paint on an oval for the body and a smaller one for the head. Add a few white dots for the eyes and a small orange triangle for the beak. Finish off with some black lines for the feathers and golden stripes for the tail.
Festive Pilgrim Turkeys
Celebrate the history of Thanksgiving with these adorable pilgrim turkeys. Paint a base of white polish, then use black and brown to create the pilgrim’s hat. Add a small orange triangle for the beak and a few white dots for the eyes. For the turkey’s body, use a light brown polish and add a few darker brown lines for the feathers. Finish off with a cute pilgrim’s buckle detail in black.
Quirky Turkey Transformations
Cartoon Turkeys
Let your imagination run wild with these cartoon turkeys! Start with a white base polish, then use colorful polishes to create the turkey’s body, head, and feathers. You can go for a bright and bold look with primary colors, or keep it more pastel and whimsical with softer shades. Don’t forget to add a few googly eyes for extra cuteness!
Animal Print Turkeys
Spice up your Thanksgiving nails with animal print turkeys! Choose a base polish in a neutral shade, such as beige or brown. Then, use a black or dark brown polish to create animal print patterns on the nails. You can go for classic leopard print, chic zebra stripes, or a fun cow print. Finish off with a touch of orange for the turkey’s beak and a few white dots for the eyes.
