Hold my Hand

Sorry I've been so busy lately...
I have an obsession...no an addiction, to nail polish!
My collection boasts a whopping 60 polishes.  Maybe I need to start putting my $$ towards something else? Who am I kidding!

:These are some of my favorite nail polish colors and funky nail designs:


:Turquoise and Caicos by Essise:

:Roja by Megan Miller:

:Sally Hansen Nail Strips are fun, easy, and mess free!:

:Jade is the New Black by OPI:

:Newspaper Nails are my new OBSESSION!!:
How can you get this look?  Follow the instructions below...

Materials:
  • 1 Small glass
  • Rubbing alcohol or vodka
  • 10 Strips of newspaper (big enough to cover each nail)
  • Any light colored nail polish (whites and pastels work best)
  • Clear top coat polish
Process:
  1. Polish your nails with your desired coats and let dry
  2. Pour some rubbing alcohol/vodka in the small glass
  3. Dip your (dried) nail in the rubbing alcohol/vodka (make sure you wet whole nail)
  4. Place and press a strip of the newspaper on your nail and hold firmly but careful for 30 seconds. (do NOT Move the strip around)
  5. Remove strip and repeat on each nail or a select few nails if desired
  6. Finally, polish your nails with a good clear top coat to seal the deal.


Let your nails be your best accessory :)...
