Here is my take on some Valentine’s Day nails:

I was very frustrated with my polish today. The base coat was taking forever to dry. I would think it was dry enough. Then I would help the girls with their school work. A paper would brush up against them and make an impression in the polish. I had to redo a few, numerous times. After the base coat was finally dry, I used a red nail pen to draw the hearts. Next I put a coat of glitter polish on.

In the spirit of blog honesty, I will show you what my right had looked like:

I guess my left hand needs more practice.(It doesn’t that look horrible from far away, which is how most people see your nails)   I didn’t put on a top coat on because I will probably take it off in the next day or two.

If you have done your nails for Valentines day, I would love to see them. Just leave me a comment and I will stop on by.

I have a wonderful sister-in-law.  She happens to love doing her nails and she is very good at it. Exhibit A:

I rarely painted my nails before she came along but now I enjoy painting them.  She also got me started on stamping my nails.  I have only done it three times but I really enjoy the options it gives to the less talented artists.(me)  Now I wish my nails looked like my sister-in-law’s nails or my Pinterest inspiration’s nails.

I guess I will have to keep practicing.

It can be a lot of fun to step out of our comfort zones.  I never would have worn dark polish on my fingers before I was inspired.  Now I enjoy doing something different every once in a while.  I hope you will be inspired to step out of your comfort zone and try something new.  You just might really enjoy it.
