Basketcase


Hi there, readers! It's another attempt at a WAH Nails creation this time - 'Basketcase'. Now I don't know about you guys, but it automatically made me think of Green Day's song of the same name. Which is a much loved old favourite of mine, so this design is bringing back the nostalgia a little bit. So, this is what you need to do; paint your nails pretty much any colour you like - although I suggest you choose a relatively bright colour so that the basket weaves show up. I used my trusty Avon Nailwear in 'Viva Pink'. Next, using your black Nail art pen, start at the base of the nail and paint a slightly diagonal line from the left to the right side. Do three of these. Once dried, create three more lines but from the tip of the nail and at an almost right angle to the first set. Finally, paint three more lines in the gap to create a triangular, woven basket effect. Finished! Oh, a tip with this one: try to maintain the same pressure with the Nail Art pen to make sure that the lines look even. This just makes the design look a little bit tidier!
