Q. No, not gluing on fake nails. How do you draw even squares on your nails like this: http://th01.deviantart.com/fs27/300W/i/2008/154/f/2/Checkered_Nails_by_Rain8ow.jpg
Where do you get smaller brushes? My friend said use toothpicks for nail art but I think it'll make it all bumpy...


Answer
Usually people go to the salon for this kind of stuff, but you can also do this:
METHOD 1:
Apply a clear coat of nail polish before you do anything to prevent stains or anything that might damage them. Make it at least two coats.
Draw squares all over the nails with a white marker, like a checkerboard. Fill in the squares you want to be white.
Fill in the remaining squares with a thin black Sharpie marker.
Wait a few minutes or until dry.
Apply a clear coat to prevent erasure.
METHOD 2:
Apply a coat or two of white nail polish.
Draw squares all over the nails with a black marker, like a checkerboard. Fill in the squares you want to be black. You will not need to draw white squares because of the nail polish.
Wait a few minutes or until dry.
Apply a clear coat to prevent erasure.

TIPS:
Don't make the squares too small or too big. If they're too small it will be hard to make them checkered, if they're too big they might look hideous.
Practice makes perfect, don't expect them to come out perfectly nice the first try, but don't give up!

Make sure the Sharpie is dried completely before you apply the clear coat finish, as by doing so you might make a Sharpie mess, in other words, it would not longer be checkered, it would be white with purple stains. So wait for it to dry.
Do not sniff the Sharpie
Do not swallow the nail polish, remover or any other item used for this.

How do you get crazy glue or super glue stains out of granite countertops?







I recently helped my daughter with her art project which involved super glue and paper. We placed the paper with the super/crazy glue on the granite countertop for a few days and when we picked it up, it looks as though the glue left stains where it seeped through the paper. They aren't big pieces of glue so I can't scrape it off. It looks like it either dried the countertop or left a stain. I have no idea how to get it out without damaging it. Please help!


Answer
well, acetone dissolves super glue.. you can probably use nail polish remover to dissolve it. as some removers contain acetone.
