Description

Just cause I was bored. head up...I'm super duper messy when I do my nails.

Instructions

  1. Small img 20130122 094813

    White nail polish base colour? Whatever you want...I even did a contrast nail (unusually fancy for me)

  2. Small img 20130122 094917

    Grab your contact paper Cut a bunch ton of really skinny strips. There should be an edge on the contact paper where the backing extends further than sticky side...It's a good idea to shot for that side. It'll make peeling them off the paper easier

    Put em on your nails. My strips were waaaay to long, so I trimmed them and re-used the ends...now I have all these extra strips -_-

    Paint yo' nails black. I did two coats.

    Pull of the strips while the polish is still wet, whether its your first or second coat. Make sure you pull it back on itself. i.e. Grab the tip of it and pull it straight back towards your cuticle

    Topcoat I had to do touch ups on the other hand with acrylic paint and a really tiny paintbrush that was before the topcoat, obviously. keep it in mind though, jus' saying ya' know.
