Oktoberfest

When I think of things like Oktoberfest, I naturally think of booze. Beer, though. Less exciting for me. A lot of different places have started throwing celebrations with the same name but Wikipedia seems to think this is essentially German. I hopefully didn’t pick any patterns that were too far off the mark. I decided to go with a lot of green because…I felt like it. Yes!

Five shades of KleanColor metallics to go and I’ll have used all twelve. A win for Team Lisa Wants to Pretend She’ll Use All Her Polish So Let’s Buy More. Woo!

I’m a little annoyed though. The metallic stamping stood out perfectly fine until I top-coated it. I think I just have to accept that KleanColor is only going to stamp well over a light background and Link is basically a jelly so that’s really only going to show up for me. Photography is so cruel sometimes.

So, yeah, I hadn’t thought things through and didn’t think to add this to the Nail Challenge Collaborative FB group until now. But it really does fit the autumn theme so…sorry…
