Hands-down the BEST nail blog I've found.

Hands-down the BEST nail blog I've found.  For some reason she just abruptly quit in June, so that's sad.  🙁  I hope she's ok.  But she does some beautiful, interesting stuff!  Read back through her archives when you have time!

This is what made me so happy.

This is what made me so happy.  I have a Konad stamping kit that Shaun got me for my birthday. It is SUPER fun.  I can now stamp tiny images on to my nails.  I know that none of this matches each other or go with the colors I have on, but I don't care.  I HAD TO TRY IT OUT!  And sorry my hands look so grody - I was cutting metal before I left work today.


Shaun made me the happiest girl in the world today! 😃

He gave me the birthday present I was dying to have 3 months early. 😃 It's a nail stamping kit! 😃😃😃

Pardon my scary midget hand.

Pardon my scary midget hand.  I found out last night that it is really hard to photograph your own hand with shiny, metallic nail polish on.  😳  While I'm not digging the frilly girly colors this time I do like how they turned out.  I just kind of wish now that I'd skipped the silver in the swirl - not only was it a pain to get off around the edges, but it doesn't go with the white.  I'll have to remember to match my swirl completely next time.  I think I would like it better.  This is the first time I've swirled my own - I tend to like the zig-zaggy look a little better for me.

Well... 7 dogs washed....

Well... 7 dogs washed. I think it's my turn next! 😃

Home early from the dentist...

Home early from the dentist - gonna wash some dogs and scoop the yard.  If I'm a good girl and do all of my chores I might change out this very cool shredded look on my nails to a swirly one!  😉

I was a girl tonight and did Janet's nails.

I was a girl tonight and did Janet's nails. I think they turned out pretty nice - this was my first try at water marbling!
