- dotting tool

If you’re painting multiple keys, simply repeat the process.
Once both keys were semi dry, I went back over them with a second coat of nail polish and allowed them to fully dry.
I used a blow dryer set on ‘cool’ to speed up the drying process. Once the second coat of nail polish was dry, I started to add designs to my keys.
I used my dotting tool to add dots and I went over one of my keys with silver glitter nail polish. After the design layer of nail polish dried, I added a coat of clear nail polish.
I created a different design for each of my keys and I just love the way they turned out.
