Wolf Man

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

Fall nail art of negative space oak leaves in a dusty blue over a flakie yellow (warm) to pink to orange (cold) thermal polish and oak trees.

I’m pretty happy with how many fall looks vs Halloween that I’ve managed to paint this year. I love fall and I’m always missing out on painting more looks for it because I get focused and then burnt out on Halloween. So November tends to be a light nail art-ing Read More

A practicing witch/wizard nail art with decals of potions, wands, crystal balls, etc. on a thermal brown to lilac flakie filled polish.

Wizard School

I know a lot of us have…additional feelings about anything smacking of Harry Potter since Rowlings can’t keep her mouth shut about what a transphobe she is. So this was a hard collab for many and some of the people that would have joined in didn’t. And some of us 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.

Harvest Pumpkin

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

Scarecrow nail art with a bright blue & green background of flapping crows with cute black and white scarecrows stamped on top.

Scarecrow vs Crow

September 10, 2023 Lisa 1

The leaves are already turning in my trees so fall is here for me at least and the nail prompts on Instagram are definitely fall-flavored. Scarecrows can be out when a crop first starts, but it’s when we’re ready to harvest that they become relevant: scaring the birds away from 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

A Halloween-esque Christmas mani w/spooky pastel stockings hung up against pine boughs + bone reindeer on a red to clear thermal w/flakies.

It’s Christmas Time

I have been posting a lot and kinda crashed a little, but there’s more Christmas nail art to post so it’s time to dust myself off and share today’s look: a nod to my favorite Christmas movie The Nightmare Before Christmas. I don’t have a Christmas tradition that I perform Read More

Happy International Tea Day! A soft tea nail art design in creamy colors featuring stamping decals of cute cups and different kinds of tea.

A Quiet Cuppa

I’ve painted so much coffee nail art over the years, but tea has been sorely neglected by comparison. Much like what’s in my cupboard! I moved and then all my habits of drinking tea went out the window because it was always easier to make the coffee. I’ve started drinking Read More

A cool blue pool party mani with stamping images of watermelon floats and ladies relaxing at a pool surrounded by giant palm fronds.

Keeping Cool at the Pool

I really thought I’d post more last month. I had all this nail art I wanted to do. And instead I’m posting one of the last two things I painted super late. Well, it’s summer and we’re not only getting the kids all to ourselves but we had a bunch Read More

A layered landscape mani of a woodland with a path running through that a woman is biking down. Includes secret Sasquatch/Bigfoot.

Woodland Bike Ride

Today’s look was a lesson in how difficult those layered landscape nail art designs are. Also, I am kicking myself because I forgot a few plates I had that would have offered a few better options. Oh, well. I learned a lot from painting this one and still love my Read More
