Nail Art lucky cat Maneki Neko and Chinese lanterns

Chinese culture is very fascinating, so full of special symbols and traditions , that's why I wanted to revive it on the nails with this Maneki Neko lucky cat nail art and Chinese lanterns.

In this immense state, red is the predominant color , and animals represent symbols , just as the Chinese calendar and zodiac signs demonstrate. In this sense we find the lucky cat known as "Maneki Neko", which means 'calling cat' , also known as 'welcoming cat', 'fortune cat' or 'money cat', often in porcelain or pottery, believed to bring good luck to the owner.

Another fascinating element linked to this Asian culture are the Chinese lanterns, once used to worship the deities , today they are a 'party' symbol and are hung outside homes or carried by children into the streets with an auspicious meaning .

Are you like me also fascinated by Chinese culture? Find out with me how to make this nail art with Maneki Neko lucky cat and Chinese lanterns: I will explain step by step all the steps to recreate it!
