Creative, no? Unfortunately, I leeched this creativity off my sister who, I assume, leeched it off someone else who leeched it off someone else... and so the story goes. Where is the originality in the world?! Just kidding. Kind of.Preparation:
1. Tear or cut (depending on if you have OCD or not) pieces of newspaper a bit bigger than the size of your nails. Try and aim for pieces with a lot of writing.
2. Pour a small glass/shot glass of Vodka (or any other spirit).
3. Pour another one to use for your nails.
4. Paint your nails with two coats of colour. Bright colours will work the best. Light colours like a nude or a white will also work. Dark colours won't show the writing. You don't need the nail polish to be completely dry before you start. If you touch your nail, and it leaves a fingerprint instead of smudging it, you're pretty much ready. It can be completely dry, too, if you want. This is a free country.
Let's make some magic:
5. Dip your nail into the spirit for ten to fifteen seconds.
6. Pull it out and press the newspaper over it for five to seven seconds - no longer or else you'll take off your nail polish with the newspaper.
7. Gently pull the newspaper off your nail.
8. Repeat for your other nails. The more times you do it for each nail, the more writing there will be - obviously. I did it twice for each nail.
I'll say it again - creative, no?
You're welcome.
P.S. - excuse the messy job in the photo, and whoops if you didn't see it before I mentioned it.
