You Will Need (3 things)

  • Nail Polish
  • Black Nail Art Pen or black nail polish and very thin brush
  • Clear Nail Polish (optional)

Steps (4 steps, 10 minutes)

  1. 1

    I always use a clear polish as a base coat, but it is not necessary.

    Next paint your nail any color you want except black. In the video she used a red base and for a more "Spiderman" look, but I wanted a more Halloween one so I chose Sinful Colors in Courtney Orange that I picked up for Walgreens on sale for 99 cents. It is sort of like the poor gals Opi.

  2. 2

    Draw a vertical line and a horizontal once one nail with the black nail art pen or a very thin brush with black nail polish. I picked up the pen off of Ebay for around $1.

  3. 3

    Draw and X through the vertical and horizontal lines.

  4. 4

    Sorry for the blurry pic; my camera doesn't handle closeups very well.

    Draw slightly curved line in between each of the lines you have drawn to give it a spiderweb look.

    I have to keep my nails shorter for work as I type quite a bit, so on most of my nails. If you have longer nails you could get in more lines for the webbing.
