Over the summer my friend sent me a picture she saw on Pinterest and said it's be cool if I'd tried it. Thing was I had so many nail art things I also wanted to try so I didn't get round to it. But her picture fit the striped theme perfectly and I went and gave it a go (unfortunately I don't know where or who created the design, but theirs was snazzy).
By the way I'd love to have Pinterest but the long and short of it is that, I know if I got it my life would be spent on Pinterest, which wouldn't be so great for me right now ;)
Sorry my hand's so weirdly coloured, my lighting was being weird |
I showed it to my friend in school and she said she thought it was nice and was glad to provide me with inspiration ^_^ Bless her.
I painted a stripe of colour with the brush of the nail polish, then drew some thick-ish lines in black. I don't know why this reminds me of bandages. But the lines going in different directions is pretty funky.

Thank you for reading and I hope you have a fantastic day, look forward to seeing you for animal print!! :)
This look great (: It look good on you (:
ReplyDeleteThank you!! :) :)
DeleteThis looked great, you shouldn't be so hard on your self! :D
ReplyDeleteAnd YES, pinterest is SO addictive, now day's I have no life.. hahaha :D
Aw thanks, I guess I can't help it, the perfectionist in me comes out ;) Haha I'm told how addictive Pinterest is, I know I'd love it, but that would be the problem, loving it too much, therefore as you said having no life :P :)
DeleteOh I love this! I suppose it's cutty placements sure looks like bandaids! Rather than that, I was just seeing them as patterns, until I read bandaids and I was reminded of a shoe I kinda like but my brother said it looked like I had bandage on my feet. Hahaha! guess what? It's mostly black and coloured stripes! I still think the shoes/sandals was really cool and comfy! That said, so I really like this nail art! :D
ReplyDeleteHaahaha!! I was just about to ask you to hop on pinterest! ;D It sure was addictive at first, but when greed takes over, you'd be craving for more. Well, it was like that for me at first. Addictive. Overtime I realised there are a lot of repins and same repins over and over.. I kinda prefer seeing more new stuffs around. Soon I wasn't that into pinterest anymore. Etsy most likely or I'd follow some pinners who pins awesome stuffs ;P So they'd be the ones doing the findings and I only have to logged onto pinterest to see/admire those! Hahahaha! Sneaky me :3
My point is, pinterest is worth it! XD Getttttt it!!! :P
Haha thanks, that's a weird coincidence!! I can see the shoe thing, like the black strips are straps. The colours making it more fun :D
DeleteI know one day I'll probably give into Pinterest, but maybe when I'm less busy. I have learning to do and Pinterest will take away learning time haha. I get how things could get re-pinned over and over and seeing new things could become rare, good thing I'm already addicted to a million other internet things :/ ;) I love looking at indie polish on Etsy, I could (and do) spend ages there. Maybe I'll do the same as you to get the most out of Pinterest!! :)
