I know I just said the posts might get scarce this month, but I already had this basically done except for writing the blog post itself. And I actually have two more posts after that before I have to put painting effort forth or I have nothing to blog about. Read More

A jack-o-lantern and bats nail art with tiny bats delivering jack-o-lanterns on a dusty teal flakie-filled background for Halloween.

Pumpkin Delivery

I didn’t have a bat prompt for this Halloween, so of course I had to find a way to sneak them in because I love bats. I had this design sketched up last year of little bats delivering pumpkins so when the jack-o-lantern prompt came up, I knew what I Read More

A trick or treat nail art with cute candy corns dressed up as bats, devils, witches, mummies and more with Halloween candy on the side.

Woof! I had a few days there where I just couldn’t get myself to paint and then I got cold-sick for the first time in many years. Blech! But I’m mostly better and back with a cute candy corn nail design because candy corns dressed up to go trick or Read More

A sweet fox nail art using watercolor-esque fox water decals on top of a pale yellow crelly base with metallic floral prints stamped on top.

It’s funny how we associate different things with different seasons even though they often exist all year round. Like…pumpkins being a fall thing makes sense because that’s when they are ready to be inserted into your face or plopped on your front stoop (this year I’m seeing a lot of 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

A toasty nail design that combines stamping decals of jamming out to rock music and jam on toast for January.

January Jams

I do love alliteration and so does the host of the collab I painted this nail art for. And yet I’m such a literal person that I had to have both jam and a musician jamming in my design since they were both fair interpretations of the prompt. *sigh* I Read More

A high fashion runway nail art design featuring slick abstract runway models in dresses and an orange/purple thermal polish full of flakies.

Here’s something that should have been posted clear back at the beginning of November (but at least I only have one last catch-up post left!). Today’s look features an orange and purple thermal polish that I wasn’t sure I would love until I tried it and now we’re married. LOL Read More

Abstract peppermint nail art using a white crelly filled with red glitter and petals of red jelly using the petal technique.

My brain tends to be a very literal creature. If you give it a prompt for tiger, there will be an actual tiger. Maaaaybe I will do a tiger print. Or maybe I will think of a tiger lily, but reject it because that was not the prompt giver’s original Read More

A gingerbread nail art with a Christmas tree and gingerbread people, house, and reindeer stickers on a crelly full of golden brown glitter.

Today’s look is so simple that I felt a little lost when I was done so quickly. And yet…it totally didn’t go as planned. I found these cute Christmas nail art stickers in 2021, and I was determined to use them this year. There’s more on the sheet than just Read More

Dinosaur metaphor nail art about the stresses and pressures of Christmas shopping as the dinos battle it out on red backgrounds.

Shop to Win

Black Friday has changed a lot over the years, but generally speaking I think it’s gotten less deadly but ultimately not more relaxed. The stress of it has just stretched out across the whole month. A kind of long wander through sales with a few extra good prices tucked in Read More
