Tutorial Tuesday...Nail Tips Second in the Series

Hi Everybody, today is Tuesday and it is time for the second video in my Nail Tips Series.  As you know, the Band played at the Hard Rock this past Saturday...I got to bed so late Sunday morning and slept until about 4pm.  Needless to say, I had a lot of things to do around my house that I just was not able to do.  So glad that I was able to post Sunday In Blog Land for you though. Unfortunately, I was not able to do a Mani Monday post.
So...with today's post, I will include the mani of the week as well as the video.

Have a beautiful week and I will be back soon!

Much Love,
♥♥♥

Mani Monday And A New Video

Hello....today I bring you another Mani Monday.  I had been sporting two looks this past week.
One is what I call Carnival Nails.  This look reminds me of a carnival or circus tent.  The two colors are "Royal Cloak" by Revlon from the Masquerade Collection  and  "Shock" by L. A. Colors Color Craze Collection.



I adore these two colors together, probably because I have a thing for the Circus and vintage like carnivals

The next look is much more elegant and is the color "Kim Pletely In Love" from Nicole by OPI .  It is the perfect color for Spring and Summer!

I also have filmed a video to share showing this nail look and discussing a few new Lip Butter's I now have in my collection.




I hope you have a a beautiful week♥

Much Love,
♥♥♥

Mani Monday.

Another nail look....How I met your Magenta(Wet and Wild) this color is a fast dry polish...Yay!!! I will recommend at least three coats if you like a full coverage, as it is very sheer.

In addition, a second look for the week...Natural Nails.
 

Always a lovely alternative.  Do either buff with a shammy for high shine or wear an amazing Top coat like this.

Have a Beautiful week!

Much Love,

Mani Monday...Nails Of The Week

Hi Everybody! How was your Easter? Mine was so lovely!!!! We spent the day with family and enjoyed a very nice dinner with Jimi's Mom and Brother..then off to my Dad's to visit for a while. It was truly a nice day. Earlier, I had delivered a basket to my oldest daughter and my grand baby...they were invited to an Easter egg hunt so I had to make my delivery early. I mentioned to Summer that the Easter Bunny dropped her basket off at "Grammy's" which is why I had to bring it over. She did not care..she just wanted the bubbles that were in her basket, which by the way were in a carrot shaped container..so cute!
Today is Monday and I have decided that I am going to be posting Mani Mondays when I do a Monday posts from now on. Here I will share my Nails of the week and the products used to achieve the look. If you have any questions about colors or products, please comment and I will answer. I do hope you enjoy this new idea for Monday posts.
Below is the look for my Nails of the week.


Much Love,

First OOTD Video and Belly Dancing

Over the weekend, as usual we had a Band Gig. I decided to make a quick video showing the outfit that I chose to wear for the performance. It was fun to make and I am thinking that I should do more of these....time will tell. Anyway, below is the video.



Also, I am wearing pink nails this week. I love the color, it is like a bubble gum pink...so pretty!!!! I have not worn this color since the Summertime but was really wanting to wear it again, so I am.
No glitter, can you believe that?

Just wanted to also mention that I has not posted a Sunday in Blog Land because my Uncle by marriage, passed away this past weekend and we had to leave shortly after our gig to get to the viewing and funeral. It was a very emotionally and physically draining weekend, but we got through it.

One last thing I want to mention is that I have joined a Middle Eastern Dance Class....belly dancing to be a bit more clear. Love it!!!!! I will be busy with this for the next six weeks. What a workout!!!! It is a very intense class....for those of you that have taken belly dancing, you know what I mean. You must be able to concentrate in making your body move in such a way that is not as easy as it looks. Below is a video that shows how incredible this form of dance is.



Have a beautiful week and I will be back soon.

Tutorial Tuesday..It's Valentine's Day♥

Hello on this years Valentine's Day!!! So excited as today is my Wedding Anniversary to the most amazing Man!!!! We will be celebrating this evening by having dinner at a very romantic place. I am so looking forward to it! I hope your Valentine's Day will be just as lovely. If you were thinking about doing a super easy and fun look on your nails, I have created a video for you and will explain in further detail below.



Enjoy your day and have fun. I would love your comments on how you celebrated your Valentine's Day or if you tried this tutorial how you liked it. You could also send me your pictures....that would also be great.
Valentine's Day Inspired Nails♥
Start with clean unpolished nails.
File nails to shape.
Gently push back cuticles by using a gentle cuticle remover
or lotion.
remove any traces of remover/lotion with a cotton ball that has nail polish remover on it.
For best adhesion, gently buff nails with a fine grit buffer or nail file.
Dust off nails again using the wet cotton ball.
Now apply the base coat.
Next apply one or two coats of Red Polish.
Then apply one coat of the fine glitter polish to all nails.
On the Ring finger, apply one coat of the chunky glitter polish.
Now apply nail gems to the ring finger using any sizes of your choice and any design of your choice. Pick up the gems with either a tweezers or an orange wood stick. If using the stick, it is easiest to dip the end in clear polish to be able to pick up the gems.
(I like to apply the gems when the nail is still tacky.)
Finish with top coat to seal your nails and the gems.
....and there you have it.

Well, I have to start getting ready for my day. Have a Sweet Day!

Much Love,

Tutorial Tuesday and A New Nail Look of the Day

Hello there! Today is Tuesday and I have a tutorial to share with you. I have not really given this project a name but the finished product is a frame like creation that you can either hang or place on a picture easel.

Lets Begin!

Materials needed:
Clean Jar lid
Photocopied picture
Glue Stick
All Purpose Glue
Glitter
Paint Brush or paint sponge
Hot glue sticks
Hot Glue gun
Small ribbon roses
Faux pearls
Diamond Glaze



Using the jar lid as a template, cut your picture to fit the inside part of the lid.
glue picture in place using the glue stick and press to secure.
Next apply a thin coat of Diamond glaze with a small paint brush or paint sponge(this product
will make your picture appear as it has a glass finish.)
Apply several thin coats one at a time of the Diamond Glaze. Let dry between each coat. Determine how shiny you want the picture to look and continue to apply the Diamond Glaze until the look you want is achieved.


Next, apply a thin coat of all purpose glue to the back of the lid and sprinkle glitter to cover. Let dry.
Now apply the small ribbon roses and faux pearls using the hot glue gun to the outer rim of the jar lid.
Complete by hot gluing a cord to the back of lid or simply place in a picture easel for display.


....and there you have it!

Also a new nail look of the day using Petites Nail Polish color "Baby Blue" and a glitter polish by L.A. Colors "Starlight" on the ring finger.



Give them a try.....I would love to see your finished projects and Nails of the Day.

Have a beautiful week!

Much Love,
♥♥♥
