Whether we like to eat fruits or not, it is certain that once we have taken a look at the way these fruits look on our nails, we will want it!
There is a certain element of fun that fruit nail designs bring to the over all look of a person. And if you happen to be in college or a less strict work environment, this is an awesome look to sport. It’s best if you however have long nails to sport this fun nail art. To be more specific, today we will show you a fruit basket nail art. If your nails are short then you can keep the basket very narrow or skip the basket part totally. However, this nail art looks really nice with the basket drawn at the tips of your nails.
Here we are using different slices of fimos for the fruits but, you can keep fimo slices to specify to a certain fruit like only strawberries or only bananas or only oranges to depict your love for a specific fruit. The choice is totally yours. Here we go!
If you are using a base coat then use 2 coats of base coat on to the nails before starting this design. Now after the base coat dries, use 2 coats of shimmer pink color nail polish. Let it dry completely before moving on to step 2.
When the nail polish is properly dried, take a nail art brush and a bit of yellow paint. Paint up the tips of the nails in a curved fashion. It’s like a form of French tip but just with yellow instead of white. You can also use your yellow nail polish for this one.

Let the paint or the nail polish whichever you are using, dry completely before moving on to the next step. Now take your nail art brush or a clean striper and paint two way diagonal lines with your brown polish or a brown acrylic paint. This will give it the design of a basket. Let this dry completely.

Now take some fruit slices of fimos in different variations like apple, banana, kiwi fruit, strawberry, oranges, lemon, watermelon, etc and stick them up with a transparent polish. You may be using fimo stickers, which have built in glue to their back. But these will not stay on long. With a slightest touch of your clothes these may come off. Use transparent polish to stick the fimos properly. When the transparent polish dries, the fimos will become very firm. They will not fall out easily. Now take transparent polish again and cover each of the nails with at least two proper coats. This will seal in the whole design strongly and also give it a desired shine.
