Australian shop owner Roz Borg claims the title of botanical nail artist -- which she's earned for herself by designing some incredibly innovative beauty accessories that have garnered her substantial attention on Instagram and media outlets like Mashable and the Huggington Post.
Standing out from others, Roz Borg creates her botanical nail art by carefully taking apart real plants so that she gets small portions of the blossoms that can fit into a sort of bouquet on her nail beds.
Once taking a selection of different colors, shapes and sizes, she carefully glues them in place. Roz Borg explained the start of her endeavor by saying, "I had been making real succulent jewelry and wanted to use the same application on something I had never seen baby succulents used on before."
