Tropical breeze


Hello! I am so very happy Spring is here.  I was due for a renewal of some kind.  I always find Spring reminds me of Hope.  I thought this was perfect for Spring.   There was a pleasant breeze of orange blossom scent when I was taking this picture.  I used China Glaze OMG in GR8 for the base, Sally Hansen intradri in Mint Sprint and SH insta in Orange you fast and Konad plate 36  BTW: Somewhere over the rainbow by IZ is playing in the background- all that is missing is a tropical Mojito in my hand.

Essie Sexy Divide & m9






     Hello! I saw Essie at TJ Maxx a couple of months ago for $3.99 and decided to give it a try. I was impressed it was so sleek and buttery, plus no chipping for days.  NOTD: I used Essie Sexy Divide as a base and Konad princess polish in hot pink with the m9 plate.
     Pic 3 is what I bought at TJ Maxx. I'm trying to get my nubbins to grow. I'm not a biter, they just don't grow. When I was younger my grandma told me "Mija, rub garlic on your nails and they will grow". Umm, it didn't work.  I think she might have been trying to keep the boys away from me-that did work ;) I have tried Nailtiques and Sally Hansen to no avail. I'm giving Billionails a try. What helps your nails grow?

Konad Image Plate storage idea








I have been using Konad for a few months and thought I would share my storage idea.  I use a small 3x5 photo album that I purchased at TJ Maxx for $1.99. The sections were very wide, so  I sewed a line down the middle to fit two plates.  I also photo copied the image of the Konad plate so I could tell which plate was behind it. I got the photo copying idea from Konaddict (I love her blog).  I enjoy nail stamping, but I am limited in which images I could use due to my nails being short.  I am hopeful that one day they will grow *rubs solar oil on nails*.
