By Prerana,
Few days back while traveling in metro train I saw a checkered nail art design on a girl’s nail. Her nail art was so precisely done that I couldn’t resist myself to rush back home and try out my hand in drawing this art on my nails. I thought, thought and thought a lot how to start and finally I succeeded 

Here it goes
Step 1 .All u need is any two color, I’m using yellow&red.So, apply yellow nail paint at the root of your nail horizontally.
Step 2.Draw vertical lines with red nail paint brush over the yellow base. Here I didn’t use any bindi brush coz I don’t want thin lines, rather I want thick lines to make checkered design
Step 3-Now apply red nail enamel horizontally next to yellow line so that all the vertical red lines meet the red line at its base. Oh, I’m sorry to teach u mathematics of vertical & horizontal lines here!!, 
Step 4-Now repeat step 2 with yellow color here. Over the red color draw thick yellow vertical lines, and join them at the base by same yellow horizontal line.
Step5 -Now again repeat the steps as written above and draw red lines over yellow color.
Step 6- Go on to repeat the steps till you reach the tips of your nails.
Step 7 – Do it in all the 5fingers and it will show up something like this..
Beware, it took 45min for me to do this nail art because the nail paint have to be completely dried up before proceeding for next step. But do try out this design, it will be real fun
