Floral Today

I was supposed to post this clear back in April. It was for a challenge. With a collage. The only colors I could use were purple and brown and I did a fairly decent job even though I was trying to come back from a painting drought. But I kept Read More

Squirrel nail art with reverse stamping a realistic squirrel and some walnuts and leaves but mostly a tree pattern in a fall rainbow.

Today’s squirrely look is a fall rainbow starting with spring green and running all the way to plumy violet. Living in a different state now, I actually see squirrels fairly often as they barrel through my yard. They have managed to plant many walnut trees according to my weeding. I Read More

A bright yellow hibiscus and pineapple nail art with a "sexy" censored pineapple stamping decal to make it tropically funny.

Sometimes when you get back into a hobby after a long absence you just…mess up on things a bunch because you forgot some of the “checks” you normally do. Today’s false nail set were stamped upside down from my usual. Honestly, I orientate my nail art the way I do Read More

A Blue Moon nail art using a cobalt blue stamping polish with porcelain patterns over a white jelly nail polish with pink shimmer.

It’s been a while since I painted nail art for the full moon, but today’s look isn’t to make up for one of the moons I missed. Instead, we’re giving some time to the second full moon in August: the blue moon. Blue moons can occur in any month but 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.

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.

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

Bear Moon nail art to celebrate the full moon in February on a gorgeous magenta nail polish and snowflakes and icicles in the background.

It’s time for another full moon and another mani to go with it. Like the others, this moon has many different names including bear, snow, and hungry. Since I’d already rather touched on the snow theme with my Frost Moon mani, I was planning on just focusing on bears, but Read More

A cozy, matte scarf-wrapped fox nail art with more stamping decals of winter gear, roses, and snowflakes on a copper magnetic base.

Am I going to jinx things if I say that I’m still trying to use every image on the Nicole Diary Fashion Trends ND-002 stamping plate? Because I am and today’s look puts me at the halfway mark for the larger images. I even used my favorite image: the fox! Read More

Chinese New Year nail art for the Year of the Rabbit with holographic red, deep mustard, gold, and black polish + rabbit cutouts and bamboo.

I’ve been painting nail art for Chinese New Year since 2018. It kinda terrifies me that I will have to paint for five more years before I can rest on my laurels and just repost the nail art I already did (optionally, mean 😜). In previous years I painted at Read More

Fox nail art of an art deco fox on swirling patterns, fox prints, and a woodland fox patern on a dark blue and green thermal.

Sometimes I think about all the times I count a stamping plate as “used”, when I didn’t use my favorite image on it. The one that made me hit “add to cart”. It definitely makes my stamping plate usage spreadsheet look worse. LOL But with today’s foxy look, I’m hitting Read More
