Weekly updates of my intricate hand-painted nail designs. And yes, those are my natural nails. :)
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
1/1/12 - 2012 disaster nails. the thumb has the 2012 movie logo, then the fingers have volcano eruptions, tsunamis, earthquakes, and tornadoes.
…”Merry Christmas” on the thumbs with bells and ribbon! (sorry for the blurry picture!)
12/18/11 - reindeer on 8 fingers and…
12/3/11 - Genies coming out of their lamps. I think I re-watched Aladdin around this time and thought genies would be neat.
11/19/11 - Cave paintings. I don’t remember the inspiration. I thought it might be cool for that week’s nails! (sorry again for the crappy picture quality!)
11/12/11 - Pokemon! A friend of mine suggested Pokemon for this week’s nails, and frankly, I feel silly for not thinking of it earlier! Can you name them all (without looking at the tags)?
10/29/11 - japanese kanji for “fun” with funky gold tips. I was a Japanese woman for Halloween, so I painted my nails to match my dress.
10/15/11 - French tips of an elephant shooting water out its nose (with a tiny beach ball!). This is one of my more playful nail designs :)
10/8/11 - A rocket ship leaving earth and traveling to another planet (the astronaut gets out and is scared away by a big alien on my other pinkie)! I liked this nail theme because it told a story!
9/17/11 - Paradoxes. I felt like writing something on my nails that week and I can fit 3 words per nail comfortably, so the two paradoxes I wrote were, “Ever wonder what happens if Pinocchio says ‘my nose will now grow’?” and “Ever wonder if God can create a boulder so heavy even He can’t lift it?”
9/10/11 - Soda cans. I picked the coolest and most popular logos I could think of from the soda world and put them on my nails. Note: picture quality gets a little iffy sometimes because some of the pictures I took with my iPod… sorry!
Thanks for the cool suggestion! There are 7 wonders of the ancient world, of the medieval world, and of the natural world, so I could mix and match to get 10! I already promised next week’s nails to my brother’s idea of the Mandelbrot set, but your idea might be next!
9/3/11 - Giant movie monster nails for the first week of college: the Kracken! (Mostly inspired by Pirates of the Carribean).
9/3/11 - Giant movie monster nails for the first week of college: Gort from “the day the Earth Stood Still”.
9/3/11 - Giant movie monster nails for the first week of college: Godzilla, with his name written in Japanese down the side in red.
