 | Step two:Using black paint and a round brush No 2 , draw leaf shapes onto each nail. Let your imagination run free. | |
 | Step three: Using white acrylic paint and a detail brush, introduce a thin "edge" to each leaf. From this white border, introduce light white strokes towards the middle of each leaf. | |
 | Step four: Fill the area between the leaves with white circular "bubbles" of varying sizes. | |
 | Step five: Now shade the gaps between the "bubbles" with white colour to create a "web" effect. | |
