aesthetic nails

Hello! Today I'm going to be sharing this super simple nail art inspired by "aesthetic type tumblrs". I see a lot of posts that have these black and white grids and decided to take it to put on my nails.
Unfortunately, it had slipped my mind to take pictures of the process, but I think you can figure it out. Two nails white, two nails black. On the thumb (or whatever accent finger you want), paint it white and then make thin straight lines in black evenly spaced to get a grid effect. I used an old small paintbrush but you could try a striper, toothpick, or anything else. You could also probably use strips of tape to cover up the white to get a more precise line, but I'm way too impatient to use tape in nail art (it' always ended badly). 
I hope you liked this simple tutorial-ish post. If you recreate this or paint your nails in another cool way, I would love to see.
