So I did my 4th of July nails differently than most people. I've been really into anchors recently so I decided I would do nautical nails in red white and blue (:
I used Revlon 080 "Delicious" for my red, China Glaze 948 "First Mate" for my navy and NYC 134 "French White Tip"
I wanted my main color to be red but you can try any color you like. Once it's dry you're going to take plain scotch tape and cut strips of equal width and place them on the finger nail(s) you want to be the accent nail(s). Then paint over the tape with the Navy. let dry for a few seconds and slowly peel the tape of very very slowly then let it all dry. 
Now comes the tricky part! To make the anchor I took a tooth pick and cut a tiny bit of the tip off so it would be flat and dipped it into my white and again very very slowly drew my anchor. I will admit I drew a few on a piece of paper to see which design I liked best. I wanted something simple and cute but next time I think I'll try something a little more difficult. Then all you need is some top coat to seal it in and you're good! (: This will hopefully be your end result!
Ta Da! Nautical 4th of July inspired nails (:
