The French Come to Bed Red

Can you believe today marks Day 1, Red, of Chalkboard Nails 31 Day Challenge 2014? I know I can't! I'm going to try my best to finish the change, even if I need to create a few twists or extensions of my own.

Easter Egg Inspired Faux Tape Manicure (+ Tutorial)

Hello lovelies! I'm truly hoping someday soon my health will not hinder my life so much and I can get back to doing more fun & intricate nail art as well as blogging regularly. My beautiful polishes sit in a corner (in addition to boxes under the couch...heh) and get used by my friends more than myself. Today's nail art is from just before Easter. I never got around to posting it because I didn't think it came out quite how I was hoping; but the more I see it and know how much I struggled to sit up and finish the look I feel it needs to be shared, because I was so proud I finished them.

Spring Into Watercolor Flowers

I am really excited about today's post. I have been wanting to do a floral watercolor design for a while and with spring officially here, it seemed like the perfect time. I decided to go for a doodled wallpaper design, which came out just as I had hoped. If you like these nails, please follow my link to vote for them in the Nailpolis Spring Contest by March 31st.

Best of 2013

Hello again! What better way to start off a new year of nail art than reflecting over my favorite designs from the previous!? So, I scrounged through my archives and found my top twelve (with some help from you, my readers, and your wonderful comments/likes/repins/etc.). Without further ado, here they are in no particular order...unless you consider my wanting them to look great for the line-up.

31DC2013 : Sleepy Hollow Nails (+Tutorial)

Day 29 of Chalkboard Nails 31 Day Challenge 2013 is a Supernatural theme. I instantly knew I wanted to do some sort of legend, whether it be mermaids or unicorns, etc.; but then thought I could make it a Halloween themed design as well. I then happened upon this mystical tree image and knew I wanted to do Sleepy Hollow nails.

31DC2013 : Catching Fire Nails

Day 24 of Chalkboard Nails 31 Day Challenge 2013 is here and my nails are Catching Fire with this Book challenge. I really enjoyed reading the hunger games series and after seeing Chalkboard Nails Smoke Nail Art I knew I wanted to try using the watercolor technique for a flame effect. How do you think it turned out?
