Aqua Teen Hunger Force Nails!

Hello friends! A few weeks ago I ordered some new nail art tools from Ebay and after waiting (im)patiently  they finally got here!  I have been wanting to do an Aqua Teen Hunger Force manicure for the longest time and now that I finally have the right tools..and LOTS of tooth picks, I did it! Check it out! (Pic heavy!!)

Ignignokt...Frylock..Master Shake...Meatwad..Err

If you aren't familiar with AQTHF it's a show on Adult Swim and it's Hilarious! It's got that so dumb and ridiculous that it's funny vibe. Completely up my alley! I have been watching this show since high school and I still laugh just as hard as I did when I first saw it. Yeah...I am not going to grow up anytime soon. :p

My favorite...Meatwad. What can I say, Meatwad make the money see..Meatwad get the Honeys G!

This manicure took me a long time but it was COMPLETELY worth it, I am so happy with the way it turned out.



The aftermath...in nail art tooth picks can be your best friend!



You know I couldn't forget Ignignokt and Err..so rude! I love the way these little guys talk completely reckless to people and just don't give an ef! Ha! What do you guys think of this manicure? Let me know I really appreciate your feedback. :)

Thank you for reading! Happy Friday! I hope you all have an awesome weekend!

Cupcake Nails!

Hello sweet faces!  Anyone want an aquadelic cupcake? I am sure you have seen this manicure all over the place it's  just so fun I couldn't resist!

I wanted to Jazz up my China Glaze 'Aquadelic' Manicure so I decided to add some super cure cupcake accents. 


:)

This is one of the easiest freehand manicures ever. It's all done with nail polish no acrylic paint for this one, a tiny nail art brush and a dotting tool for the sprinkles.

Up close and delicious!  
I have to admit that I am loving this sickeningly sweet. It's so cutesy, I can see doing this manicure for my kiddos Birthday party or something. I hope you guys like this one! Are you guys enjoying my hand painted manicures? I am really having fun with them. Any suggestions? I would love to get some suggestions! If you have any just let me know! Thank you so much for reading. Until nest time!

Luck of the Irish

Hello Friends! I have really missed doing custom hand painted manicures. I have been wanting to do more but I just didn't have the correct tools, so I finally decided to purchase some new brushes and paints specifically for doing custom painted manicures. I am a bit rusty and working with new brushes, so bear with me while I get into the swing of things.(is it bear with me or bare with me? hmmm hahaha!) Why not start things off with a St. Patricks Day Manicure!

I'm holding 'Treasure Chest' from China Glaze a beautiful chunky gold glitter in a clear base. I used some of this gold gem for the glitter gradient on my middle finger. I use mostly acrylic paint for the designs, it dries super fast and is great for color mixing.

A cute leprechaun..gold glitter gradient..a rainbow and a pot of gold! Cute! 

I think my favorite is the pot of gold. :)

I hope you guys like this one! What are you going to be up to on St. Patricks Day? Anyone going to be enjoying some green brew? Whatever it is you do..Be safe and have fun!

Cute Halloween Nails!

Hey Loves! Halloween is just around the corner! Check out these hand painted and bundle monster stamped Halloween nails. 

I am holding China Glaze Zombie Zest  and I have it on my thumb nail over a coat of black polish.


Little Frankenstein Guy and Jack-O-Lantern hand painted using Migi Nail Art Pens. 

I haven't used the Ghoulish GLOW from China Glaze yet but out the bottle after I charged it by holding it up to the light.

AWESOME! I need to play around with this and see how it shows best on the nails. Do you think I should use a white base to make it pop? hmmmmm. What do you ladies think?

Thanks for reading!

Fun Tips!

Hello friends! I was recently playing around with some polish and came up with this fun french manicure. I rarely just focus on my tips but my nails are getting long enough to play around and experiment with manicures like this. I hope you like it.

Kind of Cheetara-esque don't ya think? hahaha That was NOT my intention and I didn't realize that until after. 


China Glaze Hope Chest...Migi Nail Art Pen in Black...China Glaze Happy Go Lucky

I  painted the yellow on free hand, I may pick up some of the french manicure stickers to use as a guide next time so it will be more even.

Just the tip. ha!

What do you think? I can't wait to try more color combinations and designs. What do you guys have in mind? Any cool suggestions for a fun french Manicure? Let me know! Thank you for reading and I hope you all have a great weekend!
