Christmas Leftovers - Poinsettias and Dots

Another leftover mani that isn't the best. I only wore it for one day, but I thought I'd post it anyways.
I used Refresh-Mint, Ruby Pumps and Meet Me Under The Mistletoe.


This was the last of my leftover manis!

Christmas Leftovers - Red, Green, White

Here is another leftover holiday mani I did for my mom. She had seen some nail art where dots were used to make a diagonal stripe and she really wanted that design replicated. I used Ruby Pumps, Meet Me Under The Mistletoe, and Winter Wonderland.


Not my favourite Christmas mani I have done this year.

Christmas Leftovers - Lights

So I figured that since Christmas is over, I'd round up all of my leftover mani's and put them in a bunch of posts while I am still on vacation.

For this first "leftover" post I will show you a Christmas lights design that my mom requested that I do on her nails.


Not perfect, but festive!
Hope your holidays were awesome no matter what you celebrate :)

Gingerbread Man Nail Art

Today I thought I'd show you some nail art I did a couple of days ago. This was done on my mom's nails :)


It's not perfect, but she wanted something cute. This design is similar to something i saw on YouTube.

Sorry for the lack of many pictures, my camera isn't working very well.


Happy Holidays!

China Glaze - Peace on Earth and Party Hearty

To start with, I just wanted to let you guys know that I won Zombie Claws' celebration nail art contest! This is the first nail art contest that I have ever entered, and the first I've won :)

But onto my recent mani. This is Peace On Earth, and Party Hearty, both from the collection 'Tis The Season To Be Naughty Or Nice by China Glaze. ( I really wish that the collection had a shorter name, so from now on I'll call it Naughty or Nice.)

Peace on Earth is a beautiful metallic olive colour, with a bit of gold too.
I honestly thought that this colour was ugly when I first saw it, but now it's one of my favourites!
This is one coat!
I added Party Hearty to make it a bit more festive!








As a bonus, here is a bottle picture of Party Hearty!



I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays!

"Suit Up" Tuxedo Nail Art

Some more nail art done on my mom's hands. Recently we began watching How I Met Your Mother on DVD, and it wasn't until part way through this mani that I realized what it reminded me of.

 I used:
 Wet N' Wild - French White Creme
 China Glaze - Little Drummer Boy
 Sally Hansen - Disco Ball  Blue Rhinestone

After Glitter
