30 Day Nail Challenge - Day 19 - Galaxy

 Well, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to recreate my previous post of galaxy nails, so I tried to do it in different colors and I'm pretty happy with this! I did a black base coat and then cut a skinny piece off a makeup sponge to sponge on purple and light purple... Then sponged on a black with silver glitter in the dark spots. For the stars, I used 2-3 holo dot cut outs (the eyes that punched out of my playboy heads, I saved in this little jar). Then the pointy side of an orange stick for medium stars, and the pointy side of a sewing needle for the tiny stars.

For some reason, it doesn't look glossy despite my efforts with 3 coats of Beauty Secrets Top Coat!! Maybe its the color combo?? I'm going to add a few more coats tonight, so maybe I'll switch out the pictures if it works... :-/

Starry Night Sky

So, I've been away from my blog because I've been hardcore crafting at my house- sorry! But I will def be posting more as my BLOGIVERSARY is a week away!!

I did this design as a rough draft for my girlfriend who is coming over on Wednesday to get her nails done.

I did two coats of a dark blue, sponged on some light blue polish in certain spots to look like night time clouds, or overcast or something... then I took a toothpick and a sewing needle to make really tiny random dots all over with white polish. I'm pretty happy with the results of this and I'm sure my friend will be too on Wednesday!

Also, that's my awesome Fernet-Branca zippo that I'm holding. :)
