1. Make a clear acrylic or gel nail in a stiletto shape and use a 180-grit file together with a 220-grit file to refine the shape. Buff it, then cover the surface with a nude acrylic color.
2. Glue seven white-glitter stones vertically up the middle of the nail.
3. Decorate the nail with a comma-like design on both sides with a pure white sculpting acrylic.
4. Embellish the design with tiny golden or silver decorative dots. Cover with top coat for additional and long lasting shine.
Finish your display by surrounding the mounted nails with a gold braid and tassel in a matching frame.
