Manicure Monday - Olympic Ring Nails

*OMG, so somehow I accidentally saved this as a draft instead of publishing it on Monday! Sorry for the late post!*

Hi everybody! As I'm sure everyone knows, the olympics have just begun, so this week I decided to do a special olympics manicure. I love getting in the spirit of the olympics and basically camping out at my tv for two weeks! This manicure is surprisingly pretty easy, so I hope everyone tries it out before the olympics are over!

Step 1: Paint on a white basecoat.


Step 2: To make the rings, you are going to need some of those small coffee stirrer straws (they are usually red). First you need to take a piece of paper and plop a bit of nail polsih on it.


Step 3: Dip the tip of the straw into the polish. You want the polish to just cover the circumference (outside) of the straw - if it creates a film that covers the whole circle, blow on it so the film collapses into the straw.


Step 4: Press the straw onto the nail, making sure to leave enough space for all the other rings.


Step 5: Repeat with each different colored ring!


There you have it! Easy olympic ring nails. Enjoy these and the olympics this week!
