birthday nails
after i wrote my it's okay post and realized that i had my nail polish on for 2 weeks, i thought it was about time to change them. that week i received a very wonderful package with some nail decals from my wonderful friend over at lavender biscuit.
she gave me bird decals & succulent ones, both are so cute. so i tried my hand at then, super easy and instant cute nails! i think next time though i will paint my nails a color and then put the decal over them but i thought they were so cute and got tones of complements on the decals. (thanks ruth!)

Yes! I hate taking nail pictures. I think it's one of those angles that is just too weird taken by yourself. Those little birds are pretty damn cute. I want to see the cacti!
ReplyDeleteYea i think tom should take them next time. I am going to try the succulents next!
DeleteThose decals are adorable! I love the polka dot you did to complement the decal. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteI don't like taking pictures of my hands, because they end up looking like a giant's hands.
I think nail pictures always look angry, or like claws! Haha
DeleteLove it! The birds are so cool and yes, I agree, it can be so weird to take nail pics, hahaha! so glad to know that someone else thought that was weird too. :)
ReplyDeleteI actually found an etsy shop that sells FRIDA nail decals and ordered some last week... I cannot WAIT to receive them and have frida nails.... although I doubt they will last since my nail art/polish chip and peel in about 30min ha!
xoxo!

Tell me tell who this amazing store is!!!! I want!!!!
DeleteEveryone's pretty nail DIYs are making me want to paint my nails. I've only tried once and I think it makes my hands look weird. I have creepy stubby old man hands. Maybe it a light color they'd look better. I love your birdies!
ReplyDeleteIve learned what colors look good on my nails because if u try it for the first time and its a color that doesnt go well with your skin then i think it could totally turn you off. Try it!
Deletesuper cute! I wish I could polish my nails better than I can. My left hand always looks nice but my left hand looks like I polished it with my feet.
ReplyDeletePS Elfland is pretty good so far (Im only on chapter 3), but the writing is a little contrite. However one of the main male characters is named Jon so I just pretend its Jon Snow and picture him in the book....that may be an over share....but if I cant over share with you, who can I over share with!?
I will look this book up! I am soooo glad you can share your nerd book wormism with me!!! Keep it coming!
DeleteThose are so fun! If I ever painted my nails I'd definitely use those. I don't know why I don't paint my nails, I just never really have been into it. I think the drying part takes too long for me, which is pathetic because it's not actually all that long.
ReplyDeleteThe nice thing about decals is you just put top coat on and u can get quick drying stuff too which is what i use! I can very impatient!!
DeleteThese are gorgeous! Love them! Haha I totally agree on nail photos... I always think my hands look super uncomfortable in photos =)
ReplyDeletehow perfect are those??? oh my GLOB. and i totally hear you on the nail photos - i always feel like i have a deformed claw hand. <3
ReplyDeleteI love that you said GLOB!! Yayayay! Yes deformed claws is totally what they look like! Hehe
DeleteI love them, so cute! The sun has finally come out here so I'm painting my toenails pale green. Taking photos of hands full stop is crazy hard! I would find it easier to take pictures of my nails if my cuticles were in a better state tho, haha! :) xo
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! I'm so sad that I can't participate in the Shabby Apple give-away, I love their dresses, but I'm in Europe, so no dress for me :-(
ReplyDeleteOOoooh BIRDS ON FINGERNAILS!!! I love it! Sarah xxx
ReplyDeleteput a bird on it! hehe
DeleteI love the nails so cute! I just found your blog and it is absolutely lovely! I love the background of the enture blog. Really unique and fun.

thanks carleej for finding me!
DeleteThat's so cute! And I agree, it's so hard to photograph your nails without them looking like claws or old granny's nails, ha ha!

they are so pretty!!!! i did a post featuring those birdy transfers a while back and have swooned for them ever since. fab job, they look great girl! polka dot perfection too :) i sometimes feel like a fictional character called "the angry, vengeful claw" whenever my hands try to make poses for the camera. cheese is not in their vocab i'm afraid. ha! xo ♥
ReplyDeleteyay, they look fab! You're so welcome & I'm so pleased you love them honey; and yep, photos of my nails always look tres bizarre too (Happy Birthday again sweetie) xox
