Art Deco Nails


Wanted to share this very easy nail trick. 
Start with the lightest color (I used o.p.i. Did you 'ear about Van Gogh?). Paint a base coat, then two coats of the light color. 
Wait for it to DRYYYYYYYYYY!
Using blue painter's tape, make straight lines in different patterns. Paint the next lightest color (I used o.p.i. Monsooner or Later). 
Wait for it to DRY once again.
Then make new patterns using more blue painter's tape, and paint the last darkest color (I used o.p.i. Ski Teal we Drop). 
Put on the top coat and BAM! Done and done.

So basically, the secret to this trick is........ 
Blue Painter's Tape. It's made for the purpose of not peeling off previously painted walls, why not use it for previously painted nails?? Glorious.
