My attempt at using plastic wrap to create lines to put on your nails.  This went pretty well, actually.  I painted a squarish area of some plastic wrap with China Glaze - For Audrey, waited for it to dry, and cut out stripes with an Xacto knife and laid them over my nails (I tried to peel the polish off the plastic wrap only successfully do it once-on my middle finger).  Then I added some dots with a brush to practice that technique, just because.
This is really a not very “me” manicure so it only stayed on for a day or two but I can see others who like lighter colored nails definitely liking it.
Colors used were Sally Hansen - White On, China Glaze - For Audrey, Milani - Purple Gleam, and Orly - Sweet Peacock.

60/40 manicure.  OPI’s A Grape Fit & China Glaze’s Lorelei’s Tiara.  I don’t have too many OPI polishes but this one is awesome & makes me want more.
