If you’re still soaking in the summer, this summer nail hack is probably your vibe! Follow along to create these cute, DIY summer nails with me.

Tools and materials: 

  • Peach, green, orange, light pink and white nail polish
  • Clear top coat

1. Paint your base color and green lines

Apply a peach polish as your base color on each nail and allow it to dry. Then paint on 3 green lines for petals at the bottom of each nail.

They don’t have to be positioned exactly in the same way. The asymmetry is part of the fun!

2. Add the centers of the flowers

Using a few, fun summery nail polish shades, paint a dot for each flower’s center.
