Rainbow Candy Nails (for lack of a better title)

Posted by Erin on 10/2/11. Filed under: , ,

Please excuse my lack of posting for the last 5 days or so. It's getting colder and I'm trying to hibernate through the wave of depression that wants to swallow me whole. (That sounds really emo, doesn't it?) I am one of those people who gets incredibly lethargic and down when summer ends, and in my head it's got nothing to do with the weather, but it must considering how often history repeats itself.

I only mention this because it's affected my desire and enthusiasm for blogging. "I'll post it tomorrow" or "I'll take pictures later" have been my attitude. But I'm determined to push through it and get back to a regular schedule. Which is why I got myself an iced coffee the second I woke up this morning and started on this blog. Feeling sorry for myself only wastes time.

Here are some (bad) photos of a design I did a few days ago. I've been wanting to do a sweet rainbowy design for a long time, but couldn't put together anything that looked presentable until now. I love this and plan to do many more renditions of it in the future. But I have to make a note to buy some more polish thinner, because the silver striping polish I used was waaaaaaay too goopy.




I told you that the photos were bad. I have some swatches lined up for later today or tomorrow, depending on what the sky looks like, and I promise that the photos of those will be decent.

    I absolutely love this! How was this done? With tape or just a very steady hand?

    I used a striping brush for all of it actually (except the white base color). The glitter covers up any uneven lines :)
