nail art

It's all about DIY nails in the blog world at the moment so today I thought I'd share with you a little DIY for Aztec inspired nails. 

What you will need: 
4 x nail polish colours (I used silver, blue, coral and black)
a couple of tooth picks
a fine tip brush
clean nails


 Step 1: paint a light or bright colour over your entire nail. (I have used coral)
 Step 2: using the fine tipped brush, paint a contrast colour (blue) stripe across your nail near the cuticle and a create a V shape at the tip of your nail. 
 Step 3: using a light colour (silver) and the fine tipped brush, paint a second stripe near your cuticle and also mirror the V shape at the tip of your nail, leaving a band of the base colour visible. 
 Step 4: Using your base colour (coral) and black, use the toothpicks to add embellishment in the form of dotted lines and outlines to your design. 
Step 5: Admire your fun Aztec nail design!
