Christmas designs

Many people think Christmas the greatest time of the year. Personally, I think summer is the best, but Christmas is still
AMAZING.
Plus there are all sorts of cute nail designs to do for Christmas. :)
Before I checked the blog and saw that Maria had already done snowflakes, I did them with Claire's Cosmetics and a Sally Hansen Fine Tip French Manicure Pen. To add a snowy sparkle, I topped it off with two coats of N.Y.C. White Lights Glitter. I love this polish because the glitter doesn't have a specific color-- you can use it on any nail design to add sparkle!

I did the snowflakes awhile ago, before my thumbnail broke...I noticed that there was a pretty big tear in my thumbnail, and I have no idea how it got there. But it was annoying, having to be super careful with my thumb in order to not get it caught in my hair, bedsheets, clothes, etc. So I decided to just clip the entire thing off. Unfortunately the tear was so close to my skin that I couldn't even file it, so it looks a little ragged in the photo.
Anyways, these candy cane nails are done with two coats of ORLY Softest White, then N.Y.C. Big Apple Red for the pretty candy stripes.

I've got one more Christmas design that's on my fingertips right now-- I just need to get a photo uploaded and write a blurb and blah blah blah, I'll likely post it this weekend when I have a bit more time!

Meanwhile I hope you're having a very merry Christmas season so far. <3
