         6 . A method of displaying a strip of nail appliqués, comprising the steps of:
 inserting said strip of nail appliqués into an envelope, said envelope having a transparent or translucent segment; 
 rolling said envelope and said strip held therein to form a roll, said roll having an external circumference; 
 inserting said roll into a cylindrical package, said cylindrical package comprising elongated walls, a floor and an opening, said cylindrical package having an internal circumference that is larger than said external circumference of said roll; 
 aligning said appliqués to be substantially parallel to said elongated walls of said cylindrical package; 
 and covering said opening of said cylindrical package with a cover.
