army wife

Army wife. That's me! (Creepers)  Army toes. I did these for Memorial day. 





 I did the red white and blue also for Memorial day. 



(yellow paint on my fingers. Haha. I make a mess)



After I took the red, white, and blue off, I painted camo and army to match my toes. I wanted this design to last longer than it did. My dog bit me while I was trying to get her to take an antibiotic and chipped polish. She gave me a boo-boo so I didn't paint my nails for awhile until it healed. She is mean, hence the name Loki.




nail night

It was nail night at my house awhile back. My friend came over and wanted Jack on nails. She was growing them out for a month just to get Jack. Yep, my straight lines are not so straight. I need to replace the paint in my bottle. Oh well.



After I finished her nails, I painted butterfly wings on mine. I used the saran wrap method (dots and smooshing them together). 





swatching

 Just trying out some new polishes. 



The chrome is new polish. It is called push and shove. It came with a special base coast that is needed to apply before the polish to make it chrome. It didn't last that long on my nail tho since a top coat couldnt be used. 



Testing out the purple. The purple on all my fingers is the same color. I put purple-ish blue glitter on the nails along with stars. 





The grocery store I go to has a make-up buy out and it was all $1! So I picked up 4 new colors. The orange is gel like and has a matte finish. It chipped A LOT in the time of 1 day so needless to say, I took it off any probably won't be using it very much.

finally updated!

little tiny flowers that i did while watching the game of thrones last week. this design lasted ALL WEEK before i picked it off. it was inspired by my laptop which has multi-colored flowers all over the in and outside of it. 







ahoy!

i usually wait until summer to do anchors but i got the snazzy red, white, and blue glitter and had to try it out. (ive gotten patriotic since hubby deployed.) and i was wearing a striped anchor shirt to work the next day....


i forgot to take a picture right after i did them and like how my nail polish on my pointer is yellow. yeeaaahh.....i need to quit smoking :/





easter

i am far from a spring fan. allergies. rain. muddy yard. dirty floor from the dogs. pastels. UGH! i wish it could be fall and winter year round! that would be nice!

so yeah, eggs and bunnies. i painted a white base on the egg nails and then put big drops of different color polish on it and smooshed (sp) it all together with saran wrap. the nail with the bunny is the color changing polish and i was told by a student in my reading class to MAKE SURE THE BUNNY IS BLUE!











see? it changes colors!


abstract flowers

this design has been all over my instagram and so, i wanted to give a go at it. i REALLY liked this design. it was fun and sparkly and i got the change to use colors i would never regularly use (green, blue, yellow).
