I'm not sure what to call what I'm looking for. I'm wanting to be able to print out nail forms, I guess....sorry, I'm bad at explaining this. You know those Sally Hansen Solon Effects. They're basically the size of your nail but flat? I would like to have something like those that I can print out and use as stencils, basically.

I'm wanting to be able to do some nail art more easily. I've seen where people cut out lace or put nail polish on a plastic baggie then cut that to the right shape for their nails. I've tried it, but I always have a heck of a time doing that actually on my nails. I thought having a stencil that I could print out would make it easier.

Does anyone know where I could find something like this, or have an idea of how to easily make them?

 
Have you considered checking a local craft store like Michael's for tiny stencils? Also a lot of the girls use Konad to add pictures to their nails.

 
That's not really what I mean.

You know how the nail wraps come in different sizes for each nail....basically, I want to make my own nail wraps, but I need the right sizes to do that. I guess I could just go buy a set of nail wraps and trace them. But then I can't use the nail wraps (at least the Sally ones) because they dry out and loose their stickiness.

You can buy decal paper online that you can use in an inkjet printer. This is what people use to make their own nail art decals.Print your art onto the decal paper and then spray with a coating like Krylon. I would just play around with paper to get the correct shape and fit. Make a pattern off of those. There is a girl who sells these decals on Etsy and you can probably find her pretty easy by searching for nails.Then search for  'waterslide decal paper' on Ama....n. Is that permitted for me to put here?
