Holly Dead
Yeah, I really didn’t get in enough Halloween nail art this year. So I’m giving extra love to my stamping plates that mix it with Christmas. It always feels like a bonus to give a nod to Nightmare Before Christmas, no matter how abstract. The main feature of today’s look Read More
Ode to Mermaid
MerMay seems to be more of a traditional/digital artist thing because I haven’t really seen any of the nail challenges acknowledge it for a few years. Luckily the Saucy Mani Squad was looking for prompt suggestions for May and June and I was watching the group chat at the right Read More
Magnetic Purple Roses
Today’s look is brought to you by the color purple, the subject roses, and the strange feeling that we kiiiinda posted something similar not so long ago. However, the use (finally) of a purple magnetic polish I’ve had for years hopefully brings enough of a different element to this so Read More

Rainbow Christmas part 1
The holiday season sapped my blogging energy and so I find myself with two designs that were posted on Instagram in December and one that was not. All three are from the #pantone2019winterchallenge and ended up being monochromatic. I rather like the theme and think I will finish it when Read More
