Colours of the Forest

Colours of the Forest is a pop up nail bar where you can select from 22 nail Polish colours all relating to cultural and heritage aspects of the Forest of Dean. Wear the essence of a place on your nails!

Come get your nails painted and have a chat!

The colour palette of nail polishes specific to the Forest of Dean was a project originally commissioned for FOD Fringe in 2024. The bespoke colour palette was developed and informed through a series of sessions led by the artist and working with year 11 at SGS Forest High School, Cinderford, the Hilltop Craft group with Two Rivers and wider community members.
