How to do DIY picnic nails at home
Whether you need manicure ideas for short nails or your long almondetto ones, picnic nails are sure to stand out this summer. To create an easy-breezy gingham pattern base, prep your nails first by filing the edges and buffing the surface. Apply a base coat, followed by a light pastel color of your choice, such as baby pink or sky blue. If you want a neutral shade, white and light cream work as well. After the coat has dried, using a thin brush, carefully paint two vertical stripes and three or four horizontal stripes in a slightly darker hue. For a multi-dimensional effect, place a dot on the corners of the stripes to achieve that picnic blanket effect. Once the polish is dry, apply a top coat to set your artwork.

Now that you’ve mastered gingham nails, try your hand at drawing fruits and vegetables. One TikTok user had the brilliant idea of using the tip of a bobby pin dipped in polish to create the perfect rounded shape for strawberries, lemons, and cherries. Then, using a super-fine brush, you can add details such as the stems and seeds using a vibrant green and white for highlights. Once you’re done with your picnic nails, celebrate with a fun outing and show off your creation that is sure to have everybody running to their nearest manicurist.
