Howdy, everyone! Today has been kind of bittersweet for me. It was my last official day working at the pet store. I'm going to miss all the dogs and their owners a lot, but it was the right move for me. I'll have a more regular schedule now with weekends off, which is pretty darn exciting.
Anyway, on to the nails! I've got sort of an Easter skittles thing going on here, I think. This was tons of fun to do, but it took f-o-r-e-v-e-r! Hopefully, it was worth it. What do you think?
I'm in love with the little chicks on my index fingers lol They turned out so cute I can't stand it! I'll put a polish list at the end of the post, it's too much to go into here. My thumb and middle fingers are water marbled, which is what took so long. I had to redo my left hand about 4 times! I added some dots on top of the marble with a dotting tool. I did the bunnies on my ring fingers with the same dotting tool which was also used for the dots on the "egg" (my pinkie nail). For the zigzag on my pinkie and the edge of the eggshell on my index nail, I used pinking shears to cut pieces of tape. Then, I placed the tape on my nail, painted over it and pulled it off while the polish was still wet.
I have to say, I'm pretty proud of this one. I sent my boyfriend a photo of it last night and his response was "Holy cow!"...if he's impressed, I know I've done a good job lol
I hope you all have a lovely Easter, if you celebrate it. If not, have a great Sunday :) Thanks so much for reading, and don't forget to enter my Sinful Colors Giveaway!
