Make Your Own Nail Stickers

So I love making these cause they are just so cute and handy so I'm going to tell you all how! These are cute little nail stickers that can be made using any mini punch with a cute picture in it.
Here we go! These are the supplies you'll need:
Toothpicks
Ziplock bag (or any surface that is plastic or wax paper)
A razor or flat surface to peel with
Mini punches
Nail polishes (make sure they are opaque and good cremes we used Wet N Wild brand, which is an awesome brand) :)



Now let's get started! First paint a rectangle of nail polish onto the surface you are using. Let the first coat dry then add two more the same way on top. The thicker they are the easier it is to punch the pattern. Make sure they are COMPLETELY dry before using them.





Next, peel of the patches of polish with the tool you chose.





Insert the patch into the little punch towards the edge so you can use it several times.





Next, push down the punch and out will pop a cute little sticker to put onto your nails! To get the rest of the sheet out if it gets stuck in the punch just use a toothpick. :)



Here's ours. You can also do two-toned ones just like that orange and pink cupcake or the orange and pink hearts. We did several different ones as you can see. :)



Now to apply them to your nails put down a top coat and place it on while it's still wet. Wait for that to dry then add another coat on top and then you're done! These punches are pretty cheap and make cute and easy nail stickers. We got ours at Walmart's craft section on sale for 99 cents a piece. If you don't have the punches though you can use the same method. Instead just draw the design with the polish onto the surface, wait for it to dry and peel it off! Just make sure to draw it small enough to fit onto your nails. Hoped you liked today's tip! :)

Oh and isn't my mom's manicure just awesome? She used Revlon Cherry and Northern lights on top. :)
