As the blossom season approaches, I feel my inner nature lover stirring me to come out into my garden and start planting. However, as I’m the one with less-than-stellar gardening skills, I’ve found another approach to enfold the beauty of spring: cherry blossom nails. Luckily, recreating these soulful designs doesn’t require any gardening experience—just a visit to the salon or a little effort at home.

As the season blooms, I can’t resist one floral motif out there: cherry blossoms. This nail art originates from Japan and is known as Sakura in Japan. These delicate floral designs also symbolize revival and the arrival of spring. One more thing about the cherry blossom nails that never fails to captivate me is their romantic pink and white hues.

Cherry blossom nail art isn’t just popular in spring but all the year-round. Moreover, it truly shines during the beginning of the Chinese New Lunar Year and the peak bloom period from late March to mid-April. To celebrate the beauty of these cherry blossoms, I’ve collected the prettiest cherry blossom nail designs I could find on Instagram.

Ahead, I’ve curated 7 charming cherry blossom nail ideas that scream blossom loudly. With these designs adorning your fingertips, get ready to embrace the season of love and let your nails bloom with the charm of cherry blossom flowers.
