With summer creeping up faster than we can shed our winter layers, it'll be time to show our fingers and toes some much needed love. While manicures and pedicures can be costly, why not opt for DIY summer manicures to save some cash, learn something new and have fun making your nails your latest summer accessory.
From bright hues, to summertime themes, to simply expressing your inner style and seasonal likes, nail art can be a great way to add flair and a pop of color to any outfit. So pick up a couple of summer colors, create a funky pattern, mix hues, or try out a new polish collection and who knows, maybe you'll become so great at painting nails all your friends will pay you to paint theirs too!
