Broke girl...who is desperate to create better nail art! (I'm sure at least one person can relate, I hope.)

Anyways, I can only find one general size~costing on average $8-15 for ONE. Can anybody give me some ideas where I can search and destroy? Or if there is a DIY tutorial?? I'm open to any suggestions. I used to use bobby pins before I got my dotting tool set :) Now, on to bigger and better...stripes! I haven't tried a nail art pen yet. But, I can't wait until I use all of the polish before using it for different colors. Don't hold back, any suggestions are helpful thanks! xxoo

Yeah, I can't wait. Too impatient. Most of that stuff comes from China and then 5 weeks later gets shipped out. Happens all the time with me lol.

If you have any old nail varnish bottles, clean the brush thoroughly with cute remover/acetone, then cut the brush accordingly.

Well for diy, you can use an old poliah and take the brush out, clean it really good and cut the fibers off to a proper size, you can also take an old liquid eyeliner & clean the brush and there you have a new striper. I wanted to make it myself too. Search up cutepolish on youtube and check out her tutorials.

Try using a fan brush from Michaels to make stripes easy.

Try an eyeliner brush. You can usually find them cheap at any dollar store.

I got a lot of mine from places here like hair world or beauty world...cheaper than sally...I also use inexpensive craft brushes.

Look at dollar stores for nail art polishes, they're regular nail polish with SUPER thin brushes. I absolutely love them!! You can get them for $0.99-$2.00.

Thank you for all of the great ideas! I think my best bet is to clip down an old nail polish brush. I can't wait to do some heavy duty...nail art 😛👌
