Simple Plaid

These are just a simple plaid that I added to a manicure that one of my fellow nail students did on me. I think I would have made them a little less simple if I were to go back and do it again, but I was exhausted from a long day at school!

After I did my first plaid nails I decided that it was worth trying to come up with a slightly easier plaid design. Above is the result! These are about a million times simpler than the first one because they only require one really skinny straight line.  On my middle finger I was experimenting with doing a thicker black line, but I ended up not liking it as much. What do you think?

My friend Erika has an affinity for plaid. I know a lot of other people share this  love of plaid with her, but I am not one of them. However, I am one who loves a good nail art challenge, and plaid never seemed easy to me. The difficulty is that you have to be able to do incredibly straight parallel lines which is really difficult when YOU HAVE A TREMOR (like me). But I had to chop off all my nails and when I have short nails I have like nothing to work with (I have really short nail beds, so I just have little itty bitty nails) and I thought plaid might be a good design to try out. Well, I ended up really liking these. I think  plaid looks great on all nail types! But it is definitely not the easiest design. It took me quite a lot of patience to do these (especially on my dominant hand), but I think they were well worth it!
