    Step 7

    BEFORE IT DRYS
    before your clear nail varnish dries take one of your jewels/ pearls and press it lightly onto the middle of the bow. watch you don't press your finger into the nail varnish.

    I only chose to put a jewel/pearl on my thumb on each finger but you can put them on them all if you like.
