This photo shows the toes and fingers before beginning the nails. Do not draw
the shapes of the nails with anything - you will free-hand them with Mod Podge. |
 |
Using a very small paintbrush, paint a layer of Mod Podge in the general shape of the nails. It will be hard to see this first coat, as it soaks into the fabric a little. |
 |
When dry, add another layer of Mod Podge. It goes on white and dries clears. When dry, add a third layer. Refine the shape of the nails with each layer of Mod Podge. |
 |
This photo shows the nails with three coats of Mod Podge. |
 |
Next, paint the final nail shape with flesh-colored acrylic paint. Leave a little of the dried Mod Podge visible around the edges of the nail. |
 |
Now paint a fine line of white at the tips of the nails to create that French manicure look. |
 |
Add one more layer of Mod Podge over the paint. |
 |
The finished nails. You can see why drawing the nails first is unnecessary. This is more subtle. |
