Help with clipping my hedgehog's nails?

clipping her backfeet is no problem, but I can't get her front two paws. she rolls into a ball or runs away everytime I try to touch them. they're starting to get pretty long so it is necessary to cut them, but I don't want to have to go to the vet for about $50 to get them done. any ideas to how I can cut them?

This may work for larger animals, but I keep a rock under my hamsters' water bottle to keep their nails worn down. You could also attach a bit of sand paper onto the wheel, but ONLY allow that for 5 minutes, as it can hurt their pads after a while.
