A while back I joined a group on Facebook called Polish-aholics Anonymous, which was created by Traci from The Trace Face Philes. It’s basically a group of women who love polish and nail art who came together to share their obsession. It’s a great place to chat about nails if that’s what you are into and what I like most …

The other day I wanted to try something cool with some Lego stickers my husband had. I was going to paint my nails white and add the stickers to the nail and put a topcoat over, it was all very cool in my head. It didn’t work out quite as I had hoped… The stickers were a little too thick, …

I’m really milking this giveaway win, aren’t I?! I loved these polishes so much I wanted to try to do something fun that included all three. Cute, huh? I just love it! I really like dotting, I can imagine it would be even more fun with the proper dotting tools, rather than my homemade jobbies. I was going to take …

Here are some swatches of the polish I won from Traci’s giveaway. In case you missed it, these are the polishes I won. Pretty hot, right?! This is two coats of It’s Up To Blue. I really like this color a lot! I’m so weird about blues at the moment though after getting serious staining (even with a base coat) …

I can’t believe I didn’t share my photos of the Veluwezoom! I was looking into the archives of my blog to find the photos and realized I never posted it, how can that be? Back in November Xander and I got together with our friends Candace and Fran for a photo walk through the Veluwezoom. It was so beautiful and …

A while back I saw some Cherry Blossom Nail art by Kayla Shevonne, and I loved it! I may have pestered her a bit asking for a tutorial and last week she totally came through! She made it look so easy, but she is an evil trickster! I tried twice and mine didn’t look nearly as good as hers. I’m …

I won my first giveaway! Sweeeeet! I was one of three winners in Traci’s 200 Follower Giveaway! Today a received Orly’s It’s Up To Blue, Oh Cabana Boy, and Shine. I love the bottles, with the rubbery handles… I need to think of something cool to do using the three colors together. To be honest, after filling out so many …

Wow, a lot of firsts on this blog… guess that’s part of being a newbie! I’ve been reading a lot on Facebook and other people’s blog about ‘Frankens’ … basically, polishes that people create by mixing existing polishes they already have. I don’t have a lot of polish but I did have a few old ones that I never use, …
Read More »This is Some Politics I Can Get Behind!
A few years ago I plowed through the entire series of The Wire and absolutely loved it. I tried to get my husband to watch it with me but he can be quite difficult when it comes to trying to nail him down to get him to watch a show. There are very few that can capture and keep hold …

Before I tell you exactly what the product is, let me give you a bit of a background… We’ve always known that our dogs bark when we aren’t home and would always try to be out for 3-4 hours at most, so that they could go in their crates. They love their crates and are happy and silent when they …

This bottle has been hanging around in my stash for about two months now, and I kept meaning to give it a go but each time there was something else I’d get distracted with. Today I finally got around to trying it and I’m a little torn. On the one hand I really like the green and the glitter, but …
