Baby Did A Bad Bad Thing

By Chris Isaak.. There isn't too much to say about this song other than I think it is super awesome. I like when he sings kind of quick.. Good stuff!!

St. Patrick's Day nails.. Yeah, I will post mine up! I still have just under an hour to appreciate this day..

I actually watched the video posted by Dollface22772 and figured I would try this water marbling thing out.

I liked it.. I didn't do it to perfection.. I have a nail that just wouldn't accept the polish and some air bubbles, but it was a lot of fun and I have gotten a bunch of comments about them just because they are different. I snapped photos of both my left and right hand.. I do apologize about my cuticles though, my hands are very dry. Work has been vicious the last couple of nights via cleaning products and such.

 Left
 Right

My right hand is worse off than my left, but still not overly horrible for a first timer, right? Haha.. Oh, I used OPI Alpine Snow, OPI Jade Is The New Black and OPI Green-Wich Village.
I think I am about to go take this off and give my fingers a few hours to breathe.. I'll paint something tomorrow because I have plans for Friiiiiday.

But for now I think it might be sleepy time.. I am exhausted!!

Goodnight all - hope you had a spectacular St. Patty's Day!

Your Comments... ANSWERED!!!
  • Tierney - Ahh yes, I do remember that!! I had been listening to the tune for a little while and then saw it used on the show - I pretty much fainted - It was a great routine as well!! Thank you, I thought it looked pretty neat as well.. And thank you again, they are pretty adorable and I love their names as well!!

Canada Day - Saran Wrap Style

I had said the other day that I would be using the Saran Wrap method again soon.. And I really did mean soon. I figure it was the perfect way to celebrate Canada Day (nail-wise) without over-doing it.. I mean, I'm fairly patriotic as a rule, but sometimes sporting a Maple Leaf on my fingers isn't exactly my style.. ANYways.. See? The love is there with the red and white.. I know I said the next time I did the saran wrap method, I was going to try with three colours.. But, I think I will maybe leave that experiment for tomorrow - today is only about these two colours! So.. How I get to this? Well, allow me to show you. Start off with the colours of your choice - one as the base, and one as your.. distress-er? And some saran/cling wrap. I take two pieces and ball them up.. You could use more or less.. But I figure two hands, two, er, balls. Yikes. After your base has COMPLETELY DRIED (you can do these a couple of hours in advance, the night before, or even use some

Dry Marble Technique

Hey everyone! Yes.. Dry marble technique.. well.. technically I am water marbling, but allowing the polish to "dry" on the water.. then using it as a nail decal. Does that sound confusing? It might. But. I think this will be my next video. It is actually a lot of fun to do. And while I think this first attempt is grand, it could be better. I used: China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat Sally Hansen Bubblegum Pink Sally Hansen  Babe Blue Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow Water Dotting Tool Bowl Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat I will probably film a video for this within the next week - so I will post up that gem soon. Or, there are probably a wealth online for you to look up in the mean time. Super fun technique without all the hassle of legit water marbling. See you all again soon!

Splatter Floral Nails

Hey everyone! Last night, after I did these nails and when I went to bed - I was quite pleased with my nails. When I woke up this morning, though, I wasn't overly crazy about them. I thought of a few things I could change so that I would really like them.. I am very tempted to take how I want them to look and recreate them before work.. I might just have to do it. Anyways! Really, there is nothing wrong with them.. I just sort of find them.. boring? Ah well! I used: Lime Crime Milky Ways China Glaze White On White OPI My Favourite Ornament China Glaze Highlight Of My Summer China Glaze Sweet Hook OPI Mod About You Formula X For Sephora Infatuated Orly Liquid Vinyl China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat I made the roses with a "main" colour and white, then I did the details with the "main" colour and black mixed together. Again, I don't dislike these bad boys.. I am just not amazed by them! Also.. did you
