DIY: Nail Patterns

Who needs nail salons when you have scotch tape?!

What you will need:
2 different nail polishes
scotch tape
scissors
& your fingernails!!


First, apply a base coat of one of the colors.  We recommend using the lighter color on the bottom.


Let nail polish dry COMPLETELY before the next step!!

Next, cut tape into desired pattern.  You can use regular scissors to make your own, or you can use decorative scissors as shown in our picture.


Apply tape to all nails.  Make sure to press firmly on the tape.  You do not want your next color to run under the tape!



Begin painting your other color on your nails.



Let your polish dry completely before you take the tape off.

Once dry, remove tape and paint a top coat on nails.



Now you have a manicure that all of your friends will be jealous of!!
