Mad Hatter nail art on a soft sage polish w/stamping images of the original Alice in Wonderland illustrations of the tea party from the books.

Mad Hatter’s Tea Party

March 3, 2024 Lisa 0

I love Alice in Wonderland. It’s so open to interpretation and the world is already crazy. Lately I’ve been watching a lot of music videos and there are quite a few that have drawn from Alice in Wonderland. An older favorite is Gwen Stefani’s crazy music video for “What You Read More

Hot pink llama nail art with a crazy sweater print background and stamping decals of llamas kissing and llama puns for Valentine's Day.

Llama Llovin’

February 5, 2024 Lisa 1

I feel like we transitioned very suddenly from desaturated winter nail art to a neon punch in the face and I can’t apologize. It’s February and pink is in the air. Today’s look is all about loving llamas and llamas in love. I don’t know where my love of llamas Read More

Monstrous family portrait nail art with a sweet green wallpaper background and reverse stamping decals of framed monster strewn with cobwebs.

Dead the Halls

January 8, 2024 Lisa 0

Today’s look just didn’t want to come together in my head. The prompt was Dead the Halls and I had plenty of ideas that I could paint for it, but nothing really stood out to me. My sticking point was that I had this monster Christmas wreath image I wanted 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

A brightly tacky holiday nail art with a rainbow of holographic nail foils and black holiday patterns with trees and flowers stamped on top.

Tacky Holidays

December 31, 2023 Lisa 0

There’s always at least one ugly sweater prompt floating around Instagram for December. It’s tradition and it’s fun if you’ve embraced the truth that ugly really means tacky. And I love tacky. The more I look at these nails, the more I love them. I’m always one for rainbows, but Read More

A Christmas-y plaid nail art using a magnetic thermal polish that runs from red (cold) to green (cold) and a green/copper plaid on top.

Magnetic Plaid

December 4, 2023 Lisa 0

It’s a very plaid time of year and I’m back with another plaid look. Now I’d finally caved and purchased one of UberChic’s fantastic plaid layering plates (03 if you must know), BUT it wasn’t going to arrive in time for the plaid collab on Instagram so I used my 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.

Runway Fashion

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

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.

Art Nouveau Foxes

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

Happy Hanukkah nail art featuring menorah and dreidel stamping decals on a rich, green patterned background.

Happy Hanukkah

December 5, 2022 Lisa 1

It’s incomprehensible to me why anti-Semitism persists in existing, but it really feels like it’s shouting a lot louder right now. So even though I am not a Jew (or a Christian or anything but someone who can cherry pick any holiday they want), I thought it was time to Read More

A lovely red, pink, and gold multichrome magnetic nail polish paired with tiger paper cut stamping images for a Year of the Tiger zodiac mani.

Year of the Tiger

February 2, 2022 Lisa 0

I sadly ran out of steam when it came to posting a Year of the Tiger zodiac nail art on the exact day of Chinese New Year. On the other hand, the celebration typically lasts 15 days so I think I’m still within relevance. Nail art products used Base Polish: Read More
