While much of the holiday nail art you see on Pinterest or Instagram is incredibly intricate and takes time and patience to create, there are tons of easy manis that look just as good. From using tools like pencil erasers, tape and confetti to make simple designs to sticking with basic nail art techniques like wrapping paper stripes or a festive French manicure, these nail designs take only seconds to create.
