Day 3 - Gift Wrapping and Rudolf the Reindeer

This week we set our Christmas tree (though we don't celebrate Christmas, it is for New Year's Eve), and I felt like the time for gifts is getting closer! YAY! So I decided to have gift wrappings on my nails and remembered that Simply Rins had a reindeer design and a tutorial. Therefore, I had to have a Rudolf too. Here is this weekend's nails. :)

 My index finger turned out really complicated, I didn't like it.

 I thought that my thumb turned out the prettiest, I liked it a lot. :)

And here is my right hand, I didn't want to try so hard on it so I just painted them like shiny wrappings' colors. :)

 Here is our tree and my gifts. :) Hopefully, there will be lots of gifts right where my fingers are in the left top photo. :)

 Yes, this is my extremely pink room and computer, I decided to make a difference this week and took a picture of the polishes I used.

I used Essie - Watermelon and Pastel - 31 for my thumb, Pastel - 52 and Sephora - 51/Leather Boots for index, Pastel - 74 for middle finger, Flormar's white and acrylic paints for ring finger, Pastel - 37 for pinky, plus Flormar Nail Art white and gold and Flormar - 003 on top on all of them.

I hope you'll like it. :)

Day 1 - Snowmen AND Snowflake Nails

You might have heard about the new challenge, 12 Days of Christmas Manis. When I saw it on Sonoma Nail Art, I thought I totally should join it. And the thing I love the most about this challenge is that the rules are so free, you don't even have to do days in order or finish on time. Since I get to do my nails from weekend to weekend, I asked her if they would let me join and if I could do 2-3 topics at once. She told me that it was okay, so here I am with my "Snowmen AND Snowflake Nails".

This was my first attempt of using acrylic paints on my nails, so be easy on me. :)

This design was inspired by Simply Rins' Snowman Parade design. You should take a look at her's too, she also has a tutorial.

Look at how cute they both are! When I was photographing, I saw this white puffle and I was like, "OMG! I need a picture of them together, white puffle freezes stuff so they must look good together!" I am such a geek. :D

 Experimenting with different angles. I think this photo turned out really artsy. :)

And to make you see how glittery this mani is. :) Excuse the wreckage on my index finger, it had a little accident till I took pictures and I couldn't fix it.

I used Flormar 423 as the base color, snowflakes and snowmen were done with acrylic paints and detailing brushes. The glitter polishes I used don't have a brand. After I did these nails, I realised how much I missed snow (AND holidays!).

I hope you'll like it :)
