Fun Manicures

Manicures seem to be the theme of the blog this week, and such a hot trend right now! Although I do love doing my own nails and see it as a form of therapy, I wish I was talented enough to do the elaborate designs I see on other’s nails. Unfortunately, my hands can be pretty shaky – especially using the left hand, so I don’t think I will ever be that successful. However, that doesn’t mean I can’t collect some of my favorite creative and fun manicures to day dream about.

  That one steals my heart! I need to find a good neutral b/c I think I may *possibly* be able to do that one!

    if you put tape across your nail and leave the tip free you can get a pretty straight line for the tips

Pretty! I can’t do it at all, either! I wish I could, but I can barely even do solid color without it looking funny. <3

  I know there are tools at Target to make perfect dots or stripes, which may make it easier! All the times I’ve tried have been free hand, and well…the results have been *interesting* to put it mildly.

Aaaaah I love lovveee the 3rd & 5th ones!! I gotta find someone to do my nails now, although I think derby would ruin them very fast.

  I paint my nails every week and derby doesn’t really do all that much damage, but then again, you are in the “big girls” group so I’m sure you work harder than we do

  I have way too much nail art pinned in the hopes that one day I’ll magically be able to accomplish one of them.

  I do not know. This picture was found on Pinterest. I imagine that it was done with individual glitter pieces.
