polish organization!!

no swatches in this post sorry

one day i was reading some nail polish blog and i came across this lovely idea for color organizing polish
i ordered the swatchsickles off ebay, and did it
it worked perfectly and its a great way to view the colors of your nail polish

here are the pics

the yellow gold group

the white/top coat group

here if you hold a clear coat over another you can see the effect

 the green and light blue group

the dark blue and purple and black group

my favorite

the "chocolate" group

mint chocolate chip!!

hey lovelies!

this polish today reminds me of mint chocolate chip ice cream every time i wear it!!!
maybe sometime i'll do a base of this and sprinkle brown sparkles on it

here we have OPI Gargantuan Green Grape
i looked up gargantuan and it means enormous

this was a 3+ coater with a slightly streaky formula :( . Not what i would expect from OPI.
A good time to wear this nice color is in the summer or any time when the sun is shining. Otherwise the green isn't as bright or cheerful.

As you can see, I randomly placed a silver hexagon sparkle on all the nails...Unfortunatly the one on my ring finger fell off :(
 I think it adds an extra sparkle

excuse the chipping, this was taken 1 day after i swatched it

earrings

Hi all!
To take a break from my usual swatch post i decided to do a post on some earrings I made. These were a special request from my mom. I started out with some supplies I had gotten from Michael's...

and they came out like this!!!!!

I think they are nice but i would have preferred them in an abalone blue...

other wise good formula

ZEBRA stripes!!!

hey lovelies!!

today we have a lovely konad manicure....

Zebra Stripes!!!!!!!

usually I'm not for the girly pink and black looks but i think this is kinda cute :)

i used an orly mini sheer pink for the base and stamped with my usual black

Then i added one coat of essie's matte about you

i think it would of looked nice matted or glossy
