Day of the Dead

Unlike Cinco de Mayo, the Day of the Dead is a holiday that people from Mexico actually celebrate. And it’s not only five million times more fun than Memorial Day, it feels more meaningful too. The most we ever did was go to the graveyard and clean the family tombstones. Read More

I had a more elaborate design drawn up for today’s mani, but as a I stamped parts of the bone piles on the ends of the nails as a kind of French tip I realized I didn’t want to do more. The magnetic polish I used is super stuffed with Read More

Universal Studio's Wolf Man nail art w/glow in the dark yellow nails, "wolf", full moon, & silhouetted Wolf Man plus crackle polish accents.

I’m scared to go back and try to watch the old Universal Studios movies since so many old movies just make me mad culturally speaking. But my brain apparently had no problem throwing my money at Moyou London so I could get my hands on every single plate from their Read More

Spooky gnome nail art with spider webs and three gnomes dressed as a bat-loving witch, a ghost, and a cobweb covered spider lover.

Halloween Gnomes

Gnomes have become the thing. I’d say their popularity has really grown the past two years and they’ve taken the place of the unicorn plates everyone had to make. Only for some reason gnomes fit in everywhere so you can get a regular plate with a few gnomes thrown in Read More

Pumpkin nail art with black and white pumpkins spelling "harvest" against a bright fuchsia nail polish w/orange glitter and a Halloween cat.

Did you think I was done playing around with bright backgrounds and black and white subjects just because I painted Scarecrow vs Crow? You would be wrong, although possibly today’s look has satiated me for a while. We’re starting with a bright fuchsia/magenta nail polish with orange glitter and adding Read More

It’s the time of year when US kids are heading back to school. The kids back in my old state are already in class while the kids where I live now only have a few weeks of summer left. So I thought I should paint some back to school nail Read More

Neon fair/carnival nail art w/stamping decals of balloon animals, hot air balloons, and a rollercoaster on a holographic rainbow background.

Neon Carnival

August 27, 2023 Lisa 0

It only started to look like I was getting into fall colors because today’s look is neon, neon, neon. And finally using the ManixMe plates from ManixMe’s December 2022 Fun Fair box. I am so behind on those boxes. 😭 Anyway, I am also a big fan of the condom Read More

Shark nail art on a dark purple to pink to orange to green ultrachrome with Jaws da-dum shark nail stamping. Jaws movie nails for Shark Week.

Waves of Jaws

I’m so sad I missed shark week, but finding the mental space (let alone the time) to paint last month wasn’t happening. But I found a way to fit sharks in as soon as I could and it’s even on my natural nails. Which should explain the tip wear. 😅 Read More

An alternate glow in the dark sunset nail art with dandelion silhouettes stamped on top. Sunset: purple to pink to orange to yellow to green.

Dandelion Glow

My kids are both back with their bio-mom now (😭) so I guess now is a good time to start posting again. Today’s look is brought to you by a set of falsies that I’d painted with a purple glow in the dark for a mani that I never painted. Read More

Star Wars nail art for the Rebel Alliance w/stamping images of "May the 4th Be With You", a rebel fighter, and the Jedi order's framed symbol.

I don’t know why my Star Wars nail art always turn out very simple. Possibly I’m holding back in case someone is looking for inspiration to paint their own Star Wars mani. It wouldn’t be much help if it was impossible to repeat. So here I am with five stamping Read More
