And that’s it- your Halloween nails are ready to show off! It’s such a fun and simple way to get festive without a ton of time or supplies. Plus, it’s a great excuse to use up those little vinyl scraps you’ve been hanging on to. I hope you give this a try and have as much fun making them as I did. Happy crafting - and happy Halloween!
