PERFECT HEARTS – Cheat Code for V-Day Nail Arts
Valentine Day means hearts are a stock theme for everything, including nail-arts. I know how difficult it is to draw perfect hearts with painting brushes and toothpicks. So this is my attempt to make things simpler and easier –
All you need is red nail polish and opaque white nail polish. Paint the nail with either white or red. Both look good.
Steps –
1. Take a small piece of slightly hard paper. That is, not just thin as normal pages, but not thick like cardboard too. Chart paper or art paper will be good.
2. Measure the width across your nail (individually if needed)
3. Note the measurement down, in millimetres preferably since it is the smallest unit of measurement in common household measurement tools like rulers and tapes
4. Draw a square with that measurement of the four sides each
5. Fold the square vertically in halves
6. Draw half a heart in any of the half, such the whole figure is contained within that area.
7. Maintaining the doubled fold, cut out the half heart. Since the paper remains folded along the middle, a perfect heart will be cut out with both sides symmetrical
8. Cut out the square box from the whole paper keeping a little margin on all sides.
9. This is how the box with the margin looks with the heart shape cut off –
10. Place the stencil on the nail and secure the ends with cello tape or micro pore on the inside of the finger
11. Make sure that the heart shape is positioned right in the middle of the nail, or wherever you want it to be
12. If your nail is red, paint over the stencil with white and conversely, if the nail is white, paint the heart in red.
13. Let it dry completely and then take the stencil off. The working principle for this is same as that in French manicure
14. Either combination looks good, so feel free to experiment.
