Favorite Fridays: Easy and cheap map nails tutorial!


Wow, very overdue for a FF post! This week has been sheer madness thanks to a very sick pup (and throw in some surgery with it) and it has been an exhausting week. It was nice to sit down and try to blog a bit.

On Pinterest, I found a tutorial to do map nails:
 The premise seemed rather easy. However, it was nightmare, and only 3 of my nails really turned out. I was super bummed. Yesterday, I discovered this gem at Walmart for a mere $2.68. It caught my eye since it had "map paper":


 
The directions are crazy easy. First, cut the paper in the shape of your nail. I know, mine looks sucky, LMAO!
 
 
Second, paint two coats of nail polish. I did mine in White Hot from Sephora. Obvi wait for it to dry.

 
 
                       Now that your polish is dry, take off the film from the paper, dip it in water and press it on to your nail for 10 seconds. Slowly peel it off.


                                Now it should look like this. Top it with your favorite top coat. Continue this with all your nails.


                                             Finished product. BOOM.
This was so easy, and trust me, I am not good with my nails. If I can do it, anyone can! Happy Friday!
