Practical Magic

I’ll admit that to me, Practical Magic is a Sandra Bullock movie. I know, I know. The cast also has greats like Stockard Channing and Nicole Kidman too. I promise I love them as well. But over all I’ve loved more of Sandra Bullock’s movies and characters so she tends Read More

Anti-Valentine nail art w/candy hearts ("meh" heart) and a llama using an umbrella to deflect hearts on a purple base w/red to black flakies.

“Meh” Hearts

Part of the reason why I’ve painted so much Valentine’s Day nail art is because I’ve been following @glamNailsChallenge’s prompts for the month. They could be interpreted in other ways, but I rather felt like leaning in this year because… Past Lisa kept buying Valentine’s-focused stamping plates with the thought Read More

Lace half moon nail art embellished w/bronze, rhinestone-studded nail charms on a purple (cold) to hot pink (warm) thermal. Flipside hearts.

Lace Stilettos

The world has moved on from Valentine’s Day, but I have not (yet). Today’s look is very simple lace half moon, but it comes with a super cool thermal polish from purple (cold) to hot pink (warm) on my super long stiletto falsies. (If you don’t have a thermal polish, Read More

A gorgeous milky aqua polish with hot pink hex glitter and flakes covered in swirls of love potion and potion bottle for Valentine's Day.

Love Potion

I’ve really been hitting the whole Valentine’s Day thing much harder this year than I usually do, but sometimes it’s fun to just go all in. Except in colors. I just looked back at this month’s progress and I haven’t exactly been indulging in soft and sweet love-y pastels. Well, Read More

Love bird nail art with tons of newsprint, hearts, "love" and two sweet blue birds in flight on a grey/blue or holographic blue background.

I really wasn’t sure if I would ever get around to using the Maximalist ManixMe plates that were in last year’s February box. They kinda fell under things that are useful, but aren’t particularly my style and so it’s a dice throw if I will think to use them. Luckily, Read More

A hot chocolate nail art with reverse stamping decals of marshmallows leaping into a hot chocolate mug and people holding warm mugs of cocoa.

Hot Chocolate Weather

January 26, 2024 Lisa 0

It’s already so warm where I live that I’m not sure a hot chocolate mani really fits, but a prompt is a prompt and I already had this painted. Two days ago I noticed the first snow drop bud in my yard. I went to take a picture of it Read More

A shimmery orchid and ogup sewing nail art with nail stamping about the forbidden fabric scissors and cutting patterns from fabric.

Not the Fabric Scissors

January 7, 2024 Lisa 0

It is the age old battle between protecting your good sewing scissors from the depredations of the non-sewing heathens who will dull them gouging open cardboard boxes and the excuse of I can’t find any scissors. I am fortunate in that my spouse understands that you treat nice things nicely Read More

An art deco Christmas nail art w/a green magnetic holo background and nail stamped art deco lady, Christmas tree, and framing flourishes.

The great thing about not prioritizing getting all my finished Christmas nail art posted (many tasty things were made instead) is that now I’m ahead when it comes to next year. Woo! Today’s look is all sorts of Christmas, but I’ve decided to share it anyway since it’s part of Read More

A pink boozy ho ho hammered nail art with wacky-acting Santas who may have had a little too much eggnog while getting ready for Christmas.

Two years ago I purchased a set of pink jelly gel polish from Born Pretty thinking that I loved jelly polishes and pinks are so pretty so for sure I’d use them. This is…the first time. Yeah, it’s been a rough two years for spending time on this hobby so Read More

A sweet candy cane nail art for the Christmas season with peppermint candy canes and holly on a dark olive green holographic polish.

Candy Cane Splendor

I have been trying to finish this nail art for two years. I painted the base in December of 2021 and stamped the images. Then I painted a clear polish over them to turn them into decals and got distracted. Christmas was over. I’d only managed to fill in half Read More
