31 day challenge update-

Ok haven't given up completely, it's just gonna take me more than 31 days to complete! Which is ok with me, I don't like feeling rushed- it makes for ugly nails!

I also don't think I'm doing my best because I know that it's just gonna come off the next day... So I've decided to just take my time with the rest of challenge.  

Anyways here's one from last week...

Day 10 catchup ~ gradients 

Hmm don't totally luv any of these, the middle finger is cool, and I like the idea of the pinky finger- just didn't come out very clean. Anyways I had no idea what I was going to do when I started painting, been using a lot of purples lately, so strange, I normally don't use purple for anything. Hmmmm!

In other news I got my new iphone5s..

It's supposed to have a better camera, so we'll see if my pics come out any better from now on.. Yay!

Tribal Nails! 

I have never attempted this type of design before- so I was a little nervous. 

I would like to try them again with different colors and shapes.

The pictures look awful, again- becuz I paint my nails at night and there's no good lighting in my house. . . 

 I'm trying to just keep up now- and once I have some free time I will go back and do the ones I missed. 

Here's my first attempt at day 16:

They look much cooler in person, but still not my favorite. A little messy. Thats what happens when you are forced to throw toys for your dog while painting your nails. I will definitely be trying this again soon. :) 

Day 16✔ 

#31dc2013 day 13 animal print

Skipped a few but will get back to that soon! 

Here's day 13's animal print nails. 

I wanted to try something besides my usual cheetah print... 

Zebra print is harder than it looks. Too thin, too thick, vertical or horizontal,  its hard to get a good balance...

Despite the fact that I do my nails while in bed- on top of zebra print sheets- I still kept gettin lost on the design. 

I went crazy at Walmart and bought some cool glitters- seen on the ring finger. The directions state to paint ur nail then dip into the small cup- so I did, without thinking, next thing I know I'm overflowing the lil cup and glitters everywhere! All over my bed- awesome! 

Day 13✔ 

Will be going back to do rainbow, gradient and striped nails later tonite or Sunday. Excited to try floral nails again!

#31dc2013 Catching up, day 6

Day 6: violet!

Trying to catch up here, got put behind a couple of more  days... 

Here's the nails. 

Glitter, gradients, & lines, oh my! 

#31dc2013 day 5

Blue Nails for day 5.

Slowing catching up here! 

 

Not much  to say not in a good mood, which I guess goes with the theme here: Blue!

 I had to chase a mouse around my kitchen for an hr with my roommate, who finally smashed it with a dustpan. (We tried to shop-vac the lil guy which worked great to get him outta the cupboard but once the vacuum was off he climbed back out the hose! Not okay with this, and also not okay with Jake screaming louder then me becuz of a tiny lil mouse. Lol. 

Onto the nails- I'm tired and too lazy to do more cleanup- especially since they'll be off tomorrow anyways. Bummer. Also terrible lighting and picture quality! 

Blah blah, feeling blue. Re do this again later! 

Day 5✔

Day4 re do!

 Couldn't sleep putting out such boring nails for day 4 of the 31 day challenge. Had to re-do! And no- "hop" nails still have not happened. 

Ninja Turtles!! Yessssss! Totally rad dude!

Here's something I made to post to IG, after learning my roommate (only two yrs younger) didn't know the ninja turtles theme song- or all their names!! Jeez I guess I'm gettin old! ;) or I'm just a dork.

 Also decided I'm going to be a ninja turtle for Halloween, (not sure i can make that into a "slutty" costume, but I'm getting too old and flabby for that anyways). 

Anyways it'll be perfect, I always have to work Halloween & I work at a pizza spot- how awesome is that. If u don't know why,  then yeaah ur either too young or too old for me bro! ;)
