* Nail Art *


Hi all,
Since moving to Spain required me to leave nearly all my things at home the one thing I really do miss is my nail varnish collection :( Why do they have to have weight restrictions?? I love being creative with my nails and since I won't be able to until I go home for my birthday then I thought i'd share with you some designs I did over the summer. Hope you all enjoying your all enjoying your sunday dinners ... I miss the little things :(

♥ D.I.Y Glitter Nails ♥


Hey lovlies thought I'd share my amazing idea with you all. Lately I've really been into glitter nails and I've been desperate to achieve the look. My inspiration came when I saw a picture of a Lynnderella nail varnish which you can read about in my previous post here.

So I decided to buy craft glitter and got down to business...


This is all you will need to achieve glitter nails and this glitter is so cheap to buy too so its really worth it. This pot cost me 50p but I've used hardly any of it so it will last ages.

As I wanted to try this out to make sure it worked first I don't have pictures of a step by step guide but its so easy. 
First you should paint your nails with a clear coat of nail varnish so its easier to remove later on.
Then it gets fun, make sure you have a magazine or some paper under your hand not to pour glitter everywhere and that way it's easier to return the excess back into the bottle.
Now you have to apply another top coat and immediately before it can dry pour the glitter onto the nail, then just shake off the excess.
Do this for each nail and once satisfied paint on a top coat and your done :)
I also painted on a glitter top coat just to add extra shine but its really not needed.

Its that easy and here's how they turned out...






I'd love to see pictures if any of you try this out and just thought I should say that the glitter I bought was a purple colour but once I added the top coat it went much lighter so you might want to consider that if you buy some. Hope your all enjoying your day :)

Lynnderella ♥



Long time no speak... I've been a little busy lately and haven't really committed to my blog :( but time for  a change.
I came across the most fabulous girly nail polish on instagram one day and I just had to find out what it was so I immediately researched googled :) its name. Turns out its made by a fellow blogger Lynnderella (hence the post title), you can find her blog here. She hand makes all these beautiful nail polishes and I have to get my hands on one, but it's quite hard. I found out that it was sold on this website llarowe and that you have to create a wish list and then you get sent these nail polishes but they no longer stock llynderella :(
I've found some on ebay but they are hundreds of dollars :( and she also has a shop on ebay which I don't think she's started yet so I'm going to keep my eye on that.
Do any of you own one of these polishes? I'd love to see what nail creations you've made and maybe include some tips on how to get my hands on one :)

Look how pretty they are...

all pictures taken from more nail polish, check out her blog here.

My First Post :)

Hey, so this is my first ever post and as I love being creative with my nails I thought I'd make some of my designs my first post. Most of the designs have been taken from nail art ideas but I hope you like them :) so is anyone else being creative with their nails? Which is your favourite?
