Bacon Nails
These are the paints and tools you'll be needing. I decided to go with acrylic paints for the red and browns because I don't have these colors in polish. Basically I just mixed a little brown in with the red to get the dark red color, and I mixed a little white in with the brown for a nice light brown.
First Step: Paint your nails white. I didn't take a picture of this step because I figure you know what white nails look like.
Second Step: This step is easy because the lines in bacon aren't straight and they're streaky! So, paint the dark red in fat, squiggly lines and little wiggly triangles up and down your nails. Leave some spaced apart and others nearly touching.

Third Step: With your light brown paint, paint more squiggly lines in between the red ones, but don't let them touch. It should look something like this.
Finish it off with your top coat and voila! Bacon nails good enough to eat.
