Snow, snow EVERYWHERE

Okay, does anyone know how many more days until spring?!?!?

This snow is getting a little bit ridiculous. Here in Massachusetts I think we have at least 4.5 feet of snow or more outside AND there's more coming tonight! I can't even deal. If you've been around this blog for a while you'll know that I'm absolutely not a winter person, but I do like the snow.... or so I thought! It's getting old now -_- LOL 

But, when life gives you snow, make snow nail art!!! ;) 

I started off this design with a base of Color Club Eternal Beauty, one of my absolute favorite polishes. When it dried I used Bundle Monster plate BM-407 and stamped over each nail with PMTG White Undies. Finally I sealed everything in with Seche Vite




While I may be over the snow outside, I'm not quite over it on my nails! I absolutely loved this design, it was interesting and the holographic sparked was just AMAZING! I don't think I will ever get tired of holographic polishes ;) 

What do you think guys? Do you love the snow or not?

Thanks loves :)

Let It Freaking Snow.... PLEASE

What is this? 

It's January and we still haven't gotten a big snow storm. What the heck! 

Most of you know I'm not winter's biggest fan... or even smallest ;) But I do actually really love the snow, I always say if it's going to be cold it might as well snow! But lately I've been noticing less and less snow, this year we haven't even really had a snow storm! How depressing :( So while you guys take a look as my nails I'm going to be in the corner doing some ridiculous snow dance okay? 

For my nails I started out with a base of Color Club Over The Moon. When it dried I stamped over each nail using Polish Me To Go White Undies and Bundle Monster plate BM-323. I cleaned up the excess, sealed everything in with a coat of Seche Vite and that was it!




If these don't make you wish for snow I don't know what will! So simple yet so, so much fun. Now if it would only snow outside.... still dancing!! ;) 

What do you think? What's your favorite season?

Thanks loves :)

Snow Flakey

Hello December!

I know I've already posted once this month but I was in such a rush I didn't have time to say my welcome! Not that I welcome every month.... but December is such a festive month I think it deserves it. 

It's no secret that I hate winter, I think I say it 34894368950793 times every year, but there are two things that I do enjoy about the season, snow and Christmas! I'm going to be doing quite a few festive designs this month, or that's the goal anyways ;) And I'm going to start it off with a chilly design featuring a special polish from my brand The Little LacquerBean. Read on if you want to know why it's so special!

I started off this design with a base of The Little LacquerBean Let It Go. When it was dry I used some snowflake nail vinyls from The Little LacquerBean and fit them to each nail. I trimmed off the excess and applied Essie Good To Go to finish it off. 




I LOVE blue and silver together. Actually my Christmas tree has had a blue / silver theme for the past 3 years, even though I'm changing it up this year shhhhhh ;) This design is so simple and easy to do, it took me about a half hour to complete, yet it looks so fun and festive. 

You guys still here? I'll let you in on a little secret if you are. This polish is a part of a special collaboration. I have been asked to be the guest this month for The Glitter Box, a monthly box from Fat Lacquers that features a different guest each time. As you can guess I was ecstatic! Especially when I found out this month's theme, Frozen! I'm a huge fan of the movie (child at heart FOREVER) so I was pumped to create TWO polishes. Yes that's right, there will be TWO boxes this month! The boxes will go on sale December 5th so keep an eye out I'll have some proper swatches coming soon! 

What do you think of that secret?! Will you be purchasing one, or even both, of The Glitter Boxes?! 

That's all for today, talk to you guys soon!
Thanks loves :)

So Blue Without Snow

Let it snow! On my nails anyways ;)

It's no secret I'm not the biggest fan of winter... or a fan at all, but one thing I do like is the snow. I love to snowmobile and cross country ski so snow is a good thing around here. Annnnnnd it's supposed to snow today! So why not paint my nails accordingly? 

I started with a base of Color Club Over the Moon. When that was dry I created the gradient using Color Club Over the Moon, China Glaze So Blue Without You, and Maybelline Color Show Navy Narcissist. When that was dry I took some white acrylic paint and a toothpick to create the dotted gradient to resemble snow. I finished off with some Poshe top coat and I'm ready for the snow!






I'm hoping to get snowed in today so let's see how that goes! If not at least I've got a snow storm on my nails ;)

How do you feel about winter?
Thanks loves :)

Blizzard Warning!

Good morning!

So some of you may not know but I live in Massachusetts and there is currently a blizzard warning out for us. I've read a few reports of snowfall up to 40 inches....that's over 3 feet! And what am I doing? Why getting ready for work of course! -_- Because people need money in a blizzard right? Grrrrr! Oh well I've got a blizzard outside and a blizzard on my nails!


Colors used:
- Wet n Wild Black Creme
- Pure Ice Silver Mercedes
- Claire's White stamping polish










I used three different Bundle Monster plates to create this "blizzard" ;) And my pinky isn't really that muddy I promise! I just love how the silver stands out on the black! 

Because we are supposed to be getting this blizzard I'm anticipating my power going out... which means I may be sparse on here :( I'm keeping my fingers crossed that that isn't the case but if you don't hear from me then you know what happened.

And to all my lovely readers and bloggers out there affected by this storm, stay safe and warm! 

So what do you think?

Thanks for reading guys! :)

Walking in a winter wonderland!

Good morning!

I've had the idea to do "winter wonderland" nails for a while now and I finally had the chance to try them out! I'm a little sad because it doesn't look like we are going to have any snow for Christmas this year :( But I suppose snow on my nails will help right?! :) Take a look! OH and before you say anything I KNOW my fingers are covered in glitter -_- I'm sure you all know how difficult it is to get glitter off!! LOL 


Colors used:
- Wet n Wild Metallica
- China Glaze Agro
- White Acrylic Paint










I had a lot of fun doing this mani, albeit it was quite messy LOL. I really like the whole artsy / spongy / messy-ish look. It was pretty easy to create. I started out with a base of Wet n Wild Metallica and then ripped off a small piece of sponge and sponged on some messy green triangles. After that was dry I sponged on the snow at the bottom with a larger sponge dipped in white acrylic paint and then grabbed a teeny-tiny piece of sponge to do the snow on the trees. 

What do you guys think?

Thanks for reading :)
