Outline Nails

Another really simple nail art design that has been doing the rounds on Tumblr recently is outlined nails. Although it creates a striking finish and is an interesting twist on plain nails it can be quite tricky to get those lines to look neat and tidy. This shows my first attempt which is pretty messy and this definitely isn't a design I think I'd opt for very often, I much prefer my triangles!

Thank you for all the lovely comments on my Domino Nails last week, did anyone try them out?
I'm trying to start posting nail art regularly so if you have any ideas or designs you'd like to suggest let me know in the comments!

  3. This looks really cool. I've seen the Tumblr photos and wanted to give them a go but yeah it looks tricky to get perfect. Yours don't even look messy though! x
