Get into the spirit of Wimbledon with these fun nails

Get into the spirit of Wimbledon with these fun nails

The second week of Wimbledon gets underway today and we're still resting our hopes on Andy Murray. 

To get you into the spirit for the tournament why not try this fun nail art design?

British Stawberries are in season, so now is the best time to eat them, plus you'll get them much cheaper. But why not try wearing them on your nails?

Paint just one nail if you don't have the time or patience to do the rest, or pain each one so you have your own little bunch of the delicious fruit. 

I started with a base coat and then two layers of Barry M Bright Red. 

I then used my Rio Nail Art pens from the Silver collection, the green and yellow to draw on the design. 

I started with the green part and drew a jagged edge about a third down the nail - this can be as low or high down the nail as you like. The difficult part was following the line around the bed of the nail, but it's much easier to follow if your red is in perfect shape. 

Fill in this area with the green pen. A couple of layers will most likely be necessary to make sure all of the red is covered. 

Then use the yellow pen to draw little lines/dots as thought they are the seeds of the strawberry. 

Let the nail dry and then apply a top coat to seal the colour. 

Repeat on all or a few of the nails as you wish.
