Though I've never met Kristen Bell, I believe that if I did, we'd immediately feel a kinship. This is based on one fact alone: Kristen deeply loves sloths, as I do.

I'm not sure how my sloth obsession began, but at some point in college I became enamored by the cuddly animals. When looking for a job after graduation, I heavily considered abandoning my life in New York so I could move to a sloth reserve in Costa Rica. There, I would make minimum wage as I cleaned the babies' cages while (as I liked to imagine) becoming their new best friends.

Though I've given up on that dream for now, I'm paying homage to these sweet, sluggish creatures via my favorite medium: nail art. If you, too, record Animal Planet's Meet the Sloths on your DVR and fantasize about meeting one in real life, read on! You're bound to get inspired to doodle one of these little guys on your digits.
