Ladybug Toes

Thanks for coming back to see my nail art! It's toe nail art, but it's still cute. I came across the most adorable ladybug pedicure on Pintrest the other day and I HAD to re-create it for myself. Unfortunately because of all of the re-linking on Pintrest, sometimes the original link gets lost as with this photograph. So, I am so sorry I don't know who to give credit to. Here is my re-creation:

ladybug pedicure

Colors Used:
   ● SINFUL COLORS Ruby Ruby
   ● KONAD Special Polish in Black
   ● White Acrylic Paint

This is SO cute for summer, amiright?! I am super pleased with the results of my work and I love it. I first painted 2 coats of Ruby Ruby then using a small art brush I free handed the black half circles and line. With a dotting tool I added the eyes and black dots then after it was finished drying I topped with Seche Vite to smooth out the look.

I love jazzing up my toes because I usually can keep them the same for a few weeks.

Thanks for popping back in!

Memorial Day Weekend Pedi

Hello lovely readers. Oh my gosh is it a hot one today. Super sticky outside; I broke a sweat just watering my flowers!

To those of you who have foot aversions, this is a pedi post! You have been forewarned. I made my toes festive for Memorial Day Weekend with a traditional stars and stripes theme. Take a gander...

Colors used:
   ● ZOYA Sooki
   ● FINGER PAINTS Papier Mâché
   ● CHINA GLAZE Frostbite
   ● White Acrylic Paint

I started with a base coat of Frostbite on my big toes and white on the rest. Using my small art brush, I free handed the stripes in red and the stars in white acrylic. I used the acrylic for the stars because Papier Mâché is too thin to stand out against the bright blue Frostbite.

I hope you all enjoy your 3 day weekend with your loved ones. Remember to take a moment and remember those who have served or given their lives for our country and to honor those who are currently active duty. Send good vibes to their families as well whom they are separated from while on deployment.

Thanks for popping in!
