The Little Mermaid

So my nails are still pretty and haven't chipped yet, so no reason to change them! However, as a true nail polish fan, I can barely go a day without touching my nail polish bottles. So what happens? Well you know, I make mini pictures on big huge fake nails. Yay!! plus the beauty of these, they are tiny and easy to keep.  Not that Ill ever wear nails this long. If I were to wear these, I would have to chop it in half!



Well anyways, I figured I would start with Ariel from The Little Mermaid as it is one of my favourite Disney movies. I used to sit on this big rock when I was young and sing my heart out, thinking I sounded as good as she did. Boy was I ever wrong! At least I remember the people walking by smiling at me, although I'm pretty sure my mother used to explain to them what I was trying to do.

Anywayyyyyss.... If you were wondering what nail polish colors I used, because yes, I use nail polish, NO acrylic paints, the list can be found below. BEWARE, it is MAssive!!

Well I really hope you've enjoyed this design, I have a few others already which will be coming up from Disney. Anything you would like to see, leave me a comment.

Circle, Circle, Dot! Dot!

 I have a little surprise for you guys.. The same design in two different color schemes. Why? Well why not?  It is an amazing design that is super fun, and little quirky and yet can be so elegant and modern.

The toes you see here in green are one of my friends toes. Her only requirement to me painting them this time was that they had to be lime green. I think the color scheme for this one is a lot of fun, and I am super pleased with it. I had originally planned on keeping the design with the pink dots full, however after testing the pinky toe we decided having them partially filled in with the blue gave it a little more edginess. 

The colors I used in this design were; Limestone by Sally Hansen,  Gaga for Green by China Glaze, Guava by Revlon and Violet by ACO.  Different size dotting tools were also used.

After creating this lovely design for her, we started talking about color schemes this could work with, and I just knew I had to try a more modern look with it. And this is what it turned out to be.  For this one, I altered the design slightly by having the mini circles in both colors. I think I prefer it that way! What are your thoughts on it? Do you prefer the first design on the toes, or the one on the hands.

For this design I do have to give credit where it belongs. I absolutely love Linda165's designs, and she makes some super easy and pretty tutorials to follow. After watching this video, I loved the look of it, but wanted to add my own spin on it.

In this design, the colors I used are; Wet Cement by Sally Hansen, Hook and Line by China Glaze, Friar Friar Pants on Fire by OPI, Tuxedo by ACO.

P.S. I just received my ring today from Ebay, SO HAPPY!!! (does the happy dance), its big and chunky and really cool looking! So this top picture was really all about showing off my new ring :)

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Nails

Crab Apple Flowers

Original design was created by chickabiddy (click the name to see the original post). I believe the credit for the design idea is hers. Sorry if I am mistaken. The picture of these nails in this post however are mine.

I did these nails after going back through my likes on Tumblr. Found her picture with this design and immediately fell in love with it all over again. So I knew that it was time for me to have these nails. Plus I needed a change from the bright and colorful nails I had been sporting recently.  This first picture was taken inside. 

I know, I know this picture is not me actually outside, but it was too lazy to step outside to take a proper one. Sorry guys!

Okay, well here is an actual picture from outside, I had to go get groceries so I decided to take the picture while I was out. for a different lighting. 

Please don't mind the pinky finger, I moved the gem before it was fully dry :*( and again, since I am lazy, I didn't feel like starting over. So I just endured it for the next couple days. Hope you liked these nails! Let me know if you guys want to see anything specific.

Materials Used;
Base Coat; Calcium Nail Hardener by Revlon
Top Coat; Quick Dry Top Coat by Revlon

Owl Scales

OWL's SCALES

I am so in love with this design, I wore it for more than a week!! One entire week!! Can you believe it? Cause I can't!   I'm calling these my owl scales, I know owls have feathers, but scales sound WAY cooler. And after spending more than 3 hours ;) doing it, I am entitled to call them whatever I like :). 

Well I hope you guys like this design :)

Tiger stripe manicure

Oh how I love this design! I did this for a friend of mine who absolutely wanted tiger stripes. We had previously done the entire nail, although this time I decided only the tip might look good. I am so pleased with them. I will definitely try more french tip manicures. 

Fun and classy all at once, its exactly how I I feel right now.

I used a few different colors for this one; from Sally Hansen I used Mellow Yellow and Sun Kissed for the tip color, and Petal Pusher for the base. For the stripes I used a small thin brush and Black Satin from Rimmel.
