Christmas Nails

Hi, everyone!  Merry Christmas!  I did this really neat nail design idea from cutepolish - only I changed it a bit... Christmas trees!...













Really festive and pretty!  I used some red polish on my nails and then painted the tips with some gold glitter.  I made a Christmas tree on my ring fingers by drawing an outline of a triangle and filling it in with green polish.  For the Christmas tree lights, I used a glitter polish with some festive colors (red, green, silver).  And, finally, for the star (gem) on top, I painted a top coat on my nails and, while still wet, stuck on a silver gem.  Hope you liked this!  Happy Holidays!

Marbled Nails

Hi, everyone!  Sorry it's been so long since my last design - I really haven't been painting my nails much lately.  This month I promise you I'll have more posts coming!  I have a very exciting one to show you today...















It's a marbled design!  It looks so neat... I really don't think the picture shows it well enough.  I did a blue coat on my nails and then used a small piece of crumpled plastic wrap dabbed into a mint green polish and dabbed it on my nails.  I used a top coat to finish.  It makes a neat marbled design.  The colors I used worked really well - China Glaze "Secret Peri-wink-le" and Revlon "Minted".  Hope you all will try this!
