How to create a playful pineapple manicure with roses

Some nail art designs require fancy brush strokes and a lot of skill. With practice you can hone your skills, but what can you do in the meantime? This playful pink design uses stickers and charms, so all that you have to do is paint the base color and apply the top coat.

Nail stickers come in all shapes and sizes. To add a little variety to this design, place the roses in different locations on each nail. The stickers press on initially, then they're sealed in with a coat of gel. Golden pineapples and round beads give the manicure a little extra sheen.
