Splatter Nails: Harder than Expected

Maybe it is the perfectionist in me, but splatter nails or as some call them, Jackson Pollack nails, are harder to recreate than I thought! I have little nails which didn't give much room for a satisfying splatter and a few times I accidentally had a big blob of polish land right on the nail. Here are the pics from my first attempt.

I did continue on to finish my entire hand, but that fumes must of gotten to me and I forgot to take pictures of them! But, trust me, I think this first nail looked the best. 

**Note that I used electrical tape, which worked out just fine for protecting my skin from wayward splatter. I was just to lazy to go to the store to buy some plain ol' fashioned scotch tape.
