HOW TO; newspaper nails

I had a lot of people asking me too do a post on how I did my newspaper nails so here we go!! :)


All you need is; A newspaper & some vodka



Cut up the newspaper into strips that will cover your whole nail paint your nails too a colour you want, (but id use a lighter colour so the newspaper print shows up better!)

& leave them too dry




Once there dry, put some vodka into a little bowl, and dip your fingers in one by one.

Once your nail is fully soaked take it out, grab a piece of the cut up newspaper and press it tightly
onto your nail for around 15-20 seconds.

Remove the newspaper and the newspaper should have printed onto your nails!
Go over the top with clear nail varnish so its less likely too chip!

The end result;
