Watercolor Madness

Hey friends!

I don't know about you, but the watercolor effect is one of my absolute favorite designs for the nails. It's so beautiful and looks complicated, but it's really just as simple as a few polishes and a plastic bag! I've done a few different watercolor designs in the past and wanted to try it out again with some light pastels for spring! Check out what I came up with (and see some vintage pre-piano hills designs, too!) Products will be listed below.

I'm loving a middle finger accent nail lately!
This design is so easy! Just paint your nails a light color, then take that color and 2-4 more and drip polish sporadically on your nails. Take a plastic bag, lay it over the nail, and gently press/rub. Lift the bag up and you should have this swirled, watercolor affect on your nails! I used a white, pink, and gold polish for this and love how classy it looks!


Now, ready to see some watercolor I did in high school? :)


These are the nails I took inspiration from. I love the color combo on these!


You can also take a piece of crumpled up saran wrap and dab it over a thickly painted nail like the picture above to achieve a different watercolor affect!

As always, thanks for stopping by the blog! Some St. Patrick's Day designs will be up next!

More Spring Flowers...

Hey friends!

I know, I know, another flower post, but I just love them so much! And with the weather (slowly) getting warmer, I have to start doing nail designs that mirror it! For today's design, I did a few little daisies. Check it out! Products will be listed below.


I did a nail design last year that is very similar to this one and wanted to recreate it. I've included a picture below!


I don't remember the products for the older photo or I would include them. Sorry! I can't decide which design I like better! I like both in different ways. Which one do you like better? Let me know in the comments! As always, thanks for stopping by the blog!

Spring Blooms

Hey friends!

So today is a very exciting day (at least for us here in Wisconsin,) because it's MARCH! And that means we are getting very close to at least normal, humane temperatures! :) To celebrate I've done my first spring design to bring some happiness and inspiration in this still very cold, very snowy weather, featuring two of the new Wet n' Wild Wild Shine polishes. Check out what I came up with! Products will be listed below!

I LOVE doing flower designs!


Thanks for stopping by my blog! If you live somewhere chilly like me, hang in there, we're just a month away from getting warmer, and if you live somewhere warm, I hate you.
