Peacock Rainbow - Hermit Werds

Peacock Rainbow

August 25, 2016 Lisa 5

I started with the base colors in a gradient (except for the black) so that I wouldn’t have to worry too much about full coverage with the glitter. Then I dabbed on the glitters with a sponge and top coated. And then top coated a couple more times (at some Read More

F is for Food - ABC Nail Art Challenge - Hermit Werds

‘F’ is for Food

August 24, 2016 Lisa 0

Here is another nail art I got out too late to participate in the inLinkz. Plus I had nowhere I wanted to post my nail art back then. I apparently have a thing for food nail art. Whenever I see a nail stamping plate with food on it, I want Read More

P is for Pair - ABC Nail Art Challenge - Hermit Werds

‘P’ is for Pair

August 19, 2016 Lisa 4

I threw around a lot of ideas for the letter ‘p’, everything from penguins to pencils. In the end, I went with word play and decided to do pairs of things starting with ‘p’ with the exception of a single pear. This one took a while. I had a lot Read More

Zagging Summer

August 18, 2016 Lisa 0

My new Ejibaus plate arrived so I really wanted to play with it. I grabbed colors that looked pretty summer-y and started splashing them around. As fun and glittery as it was, this just wasn’t a favorite. None of the patterns really felt like they meshed. I feel like I Read More

‘G’ is for Grain

August 13, 2016 Lisa 0

This marks the first back-post of the ABC Challenge. I have been following it since it started, but was too lazy to get a blog started when it meant work and getting my sadly broken computer functioning again so I could edit the photos. I’ve decided to go in reverse Read More

O is for Opal - ABC Nail Art Challenge - Hermit Werds

‘O’ is for Opal

August 13, 2016 Lisa 6

I’d originally planned to do Ocean for the letter ‘O’, but when it came time to paint my nails, I decided I wanted to do something quite different. I’d recently come across a tutorial for opal-like nails on pinterest and decided I wanted to do that instead. This also coincides Read More

Neon Jelly - Hermit Werds

Neon Jelly

August 10, 2016 Lisa 0

I apologize for the bite marks. I have a bad habit of not taking my photos early enough and destroying my nail art pretty quickly. This was originally going to be the background for my ‘J’ is for Jackalope nail art. Unfortunately, while I started with a white base to Read More

N is for Neko - ABC Nail Art Challenge - Hermit Werds

‘N’ is for Neko

August 9, 2016 Lisa 4

Most of the people who know me would be surprised to know that I skipped on ‘C’ is for Cat or ‘K’ is for Kitty. I mean, the banner on this blog right now is a picture of my personal demon, Midnight, and I make no secret of being a Read More

M is for My Little Pony - ABC Nail Art Challenge - Hermit Werds

‘M’ is for My Little Pony

July 30, 2016 Lisa 1

This week’s letter is ‘M’ and I had planned on a My Little Pony nail art despite the massive struggle I had when we were on ‘E’ and I chose Equestria Girls. I’d like to say it was in celebration of season 6 of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Read More

L is for Lemons and Limes - ABC Nail Art Challenge - Hermit Werds

‘L’ is for Lemons and Limes

July 25, 2016 Lisa 2

I’ve been wanting to experiment with transparency with a citrus-y manicure and so the letter ‘L’ in last week’s ABC Challenge was a perfect time to play with some lemons and limes. Here’s a quick look at the nail polishes I used to create the look. Jelly Polishes: Sinful Colors’ Read More
