In a do-it-yourself[ tutorial uploaded](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpgLTgBPsF8) to YouTube, makeup and nail art expert Natasha Lee shows the world how to create a miniature version of the toy out of softened acrylic, and then pin it to your nail. Not only does the mini fidget spinner spin, it even glows thanks to a backlight-reactive UV top coat. “I couldn’t resist joining in with the fidget spinner craze,” Lee said on her YouTube page. The science is still out on whether [fidget spinners](http://time.com/money/4762207/fidget-spinner-inventor-catherine-hettinger/), as claimed, offer [therapeutic benefits](http://time.com/money/4766890/fidget-spinners-what-to-know/) for people with ADHD, ADD, anxiety and stress. Parents and teachers have complained that the toy is too distracting, and some schools have [banned them](http://time.com/money/4750498/fidget-spinners-toy-craze-focus/) from classrooms. But the spinner’s popularity is showing no signs of waning. The “finger spinner” may be over the top, but the creation sure is ingenious.
