So...  Yesterday I caved and placed a small order with Ninja Polish.  Couldn't help myself with all of the pretties she was posting, plus the chance to get my order free or a with a little extra something just made it incredibly hard to pass up.  So I got my shipping label, and while I didn't get my whole order free, I did get a freebie Mystery Ninja Polish.  So WOOHOO, I WON!  😃  Can't wait to see what it is.  I am so very excited, you have no idea.  😃😃😃

And YES, I ordered one of the bootie polishes!  LOL  I just had to.  😃

Ooh, another parakeet egg!

Ooh, another parakeet egg!  I read to expect as much.  I just think it's pretty cool.  🙂

Decided to do my nails last night and...

Decided to do my nails last night and I'm finally wearing my Secluded Beach!  Woohoo!

I guess I'm just in the mood for glequins, so I used them again.  I wanted to decorate this paint job somehow, but not hide the color I tried for months to get, so the glequins worked out.  😃

Last night before I took my other paint off Shaun convinced me to matte it.  I did, and I liked the way it looked, so I tried it on this.  I don't like it on this so much.  For one, there is just something really neat about matte black and for two, the glequins I used last time weren't iridescent, so it didn't take a lot away from them.  I feel like the matte totally kind of kills this, though.  Luckily, it's easily fixed by just applying another shiny topcoat.  😃

So which do you prefer?


This nail polish is shaped like a butt! LOLz

I really have to have one.  At least for the bottle.  Oh my gawsh.  😃

Polish freaks... this site is awesome.

Polish freaks... this site is awesome.  If you want anything, looks like today is a good day to order.  😃  I don't have the cash to buy a bunch of stuff (oh, how I wish I did!), but if anyone is interested in getting anything, I'd be willing to put it on my account and see if we've won the order for free.  Also, if we can hit $40, we get free shipping.  😃

I just found a parakeet egg!

I just found a parakeet egg! What do I do?

I feel like it's been FOREVER since I've done my nails.

I feel like it's been FOREVER since I've done my nails.  I've been really busy around the house lately.  I did these late yesterday after cleaning the house off and on all day.  I really wanted to use my new Secluded Beach, but I didn't want to waste it on a boring paint job, so I decided to wait since I didn't have the brain power for anything too fancy.  I was tired!

So... I'm not the hugest fan of black nails.  But I think that the flesh gaps and glequins make all of the difference because I'm really digging these!  I think I've finally found a way to wear black and like it!  They look really nice in person and even though they all match, they are NOT boring.  I am pleasantly surprised!  I think I will try something similar closer to Halloween.  In black and orange, obviously.  😃

So these were pretty easy.  I just cut tape into squares and put the corner edge down, painted black over it, and pulled it off.  Most of my lines came out crisp, but even if they hadn't it wasn't a big deal since I was going to cover the edges with glequins anyway.  I also think that colored striping tape (now available at Wal-Mart!) would look nice instead of glequins.  I just don't have luck with getting that stuff to stick down for more than a day or two.  And once it starts peeling up, I pull it off, so the whole paint job is usually ruined pretty fast.  I really like the way that stuff looks, but I tend to avoid it for that reason.  😕
