World Parkinson's Day
Hello everyone!
I'm a member of Nailpolis and they are currently running a nail art challenge to help raise awareness for Parkinson's Disease. World Parkinson's Day is on the 11th April and I've done some nail art based on the worldwide symbol for Parkinson's Disease - the red tulip :)

Jam Doughnuts! #NailartMar Challenge
Hello everyone!
Today I have the final theme for the #NailartMar challenge to show you - 'Drips'. This was one of those designs where I didn't really know what I was doing and I just picked a stamp design I liked and hoped it all looked good together lol! Also I wanted to try out my MoYou stamping plate I just bought! It all turned out well though and reminds me of jam doughnuts! Yum!

Rainbow Swirls! #NailartMar Challenge
Hello everyone!
Sorry for the lack of posts recently! I have had so much uni work to do but I should be back to posting more regularly after this week. Anyway today I've got the next 2 themes of the #NailartMar Challenge rolled into 1 nail art design to show you. Is that allowed? I don't know but I'm going to do it anyway in an attempt to try and catch up on this challenge! So the themes were 'candies' and 'neons' and this is how my nails turned out!

Hi :D
I have no nails. I bite them everyday and have done so for as long as I can remember. It may seem a bit strange then that I am here, guest posting on a blog dedicated to nails. This is because I'm determined to make a change. I will stop biting my nails, I will buy pretty pastel nail polishes and I will perfect nail art.

Nail Art Weekly Project - Week 5
Hello everyone!
It's the final week of the Nail Art Weekly Project started by Danni from Gingerbread Smiles and I can't believe how fast it's gone! I have loved coming up with different designs for each theme! This weeks theme is Glitz and Glam and I wanted to incorporate the negative space technique I've seen recently with glitter polish and here's how they turned out:

Nail Art Weekly Project - Week 4
Hello everyone!
It's Week 4 of the Nail Art Weekly Project and the theme is 'The month you were born in'. My birthday is in February and having just done Valentine's Day nails last week I was stuck on what else I could do. Then I thought of birthstones and star signs - February's birthstone is Amethyst and my star sign is Aquarius. Now I know not all people born in February are Aquarius but half of them are so it still kind of fits with the theme :) This is how my nails turned out!

Hello everyone!
Today I did some distressed nail art inspired by Chalkboard Nails. You can see her design here. They are so easy to do and take no time at all but look amazing and I was so pleased with how mine turned out!

Hello everyone!
It's week 3 (already!) of the Nail Art Weekly Project started by Danni from Gingerbread Smiles and the theme this week is Valentine's Day! I was actually so excited to do this one that I did the nail art last week at the same time as my Arrow-inspired nails for Week 2!

Nail Art Weekly Project - Week 2
Hello everyone!
So it's now week 2 of The Nail Art Weekly Project which was started by Danni from Gingerbread Smiles. The theme for this week is favourite TV show/film. I struggled this week trying to think of what TV show or film to pick because I literally have so many favourites! But I eventually decided on the TV show Arrow which I love and is one of my favourites at the moment! :)
