Aloha!!!!

Hawaii in my mind is a very different place than what the average person thinks of. I grew up visiting Hawaii often because I have family there. So when I think of Hawaii, there are a lot of great memories from my entire life. It has a very special place in my heart (cheesing it up here, sorry!).
The past couple times I went there, I painted my nails with a Hawaiian theme. This is the first time I made a design across several nails and I loved how the island chain turned out! It's probably one of my favorite designs now.




I had a great time and I'm looking forward to the next time I visit!

Marble Nails

I found out how to marble nails just last fall and I am obsessed! It's simpler than it looks, I promise! I learned by watching YouTube videos. (I highly recommend searching it) And I've introduced my friends to water marbling nails :) A few of my friends were curious how I did it and once they learned they loved it. It's such a good feeling to spread the love of painting nails! haha

Here is my most recent water marble:

Happy 4th!

This was posted a little later than I intended, but here's my nails for the holiday! I had to do something patriotic for Independence day, so I painted stars and stripes (with a hint of glitter!). Yay, America! :)


 Hope everyone had a great 4th of July!

and just a tip,
don't text and paint your nails. I just noticed I have blue nail polish all over my phone. lol

Nautical Nails

I love the trend of the nautical theme, probably because I love the beach. Nautical nails have been on my list of things to do for soooo long! I love stripes and anchors! They're so fun and summery! :)
So here is what I came up with:

May Flowers

Floral is one of my favorite nail designs to do, especially in the Spring. They're so classic and fit any occasion. I try to limit the number of times I do floral nails or else I'd do them all the time!
I did these some time ago but I'd like to try painting them again, but better.

Sanrio!

 I LOVE LOVE LOVE Sanrio! I've been meaning to do these for a while and I'm mostly happy with how they turned out. I wish I could draw more than just their heads, but this is the best that I could do. If only my nails were bigger. Can you name all the characters? haha


Simple Orange Designs

I did these nails a couple months ago. I was trying out these new stencils that I got but they didn't work out so well and they ripped very easily :( But most of them turned out alright here! And a couple nails I did free hand.
