My wonderful sister-in-law bought me nail vinyls recently and I had so much fun with them!

Firstly, choose a base colour. I tend to go for white as it helps keep any colours you use on top nice and bright. When your base colour is dry, pop on your nail vinyls and sponge any colours you like on top! Peel off the nail vinyls straight away, and let dry. Finish it off with a top coat and you're finished! It's as easy as that.

For those interested, have a peek at the video tutorial below!

Doing your nails can be so creative. It is quickly becoming my weekly art!

I challenge you to have some fun with your own nails, and do something creative with them each week for a month! Upload a photo on Instagram, or FB and tag me so I can see your creations.

This week, using the same method I did in Nail Pop, I simply painted all my nails the one colour, and then used the sticky tape to create a heart shape, and painted over it. So simple.

You can make endless shapes, patterns and layers, with endless colours!

If you find that your nail polish doesn't stay on long enough to last the week, get yourself some clear Shellac and finish it off with a coat of that! Get creative, and give it a go.

Have a beautiful day,

When you work in admin, you see your nails a lot. Unfortunately they have been looking quite sad and miserable of late, so I thought I should probably fix them up a little! It had been so long since I had done them, that I couldn't decide on a colour! Dilemma.

So I picked out four!

This was simply done with nail polish and sticky tape.

Firstly, make sure your nails are cleaned, shaped and filed.

Then paint the lightest colour all over the nails. Once it's completely dry, stick some sticky tape across your nails, wherever you want.

Tip - It's best for the sticky tape to not be super sticky. Just dab it against your skin a few times so that it won't take your nail polish off.

Then paint the next lightest colour onto the nail. Then peel off the sticky tape to reveal your creation! Let it dry well.

Repeat with as many colours as you like! And then finish it off with a clear coat of nail polish.

Get creative, and give it a go. Then send me pictures so I can see!

Upside? Every time I look down at my fingers, it makes me smile!

Downside? I am craving ice-cream at all hours of the day!

Have a beautiful day,
