St. Patrick's Day: 7 Polish Manicure

Did my final round for my St. Paddy's Day manicure. I'm pretty sure I ended up going a tad overboard with polishes. I used a total of SEVEN! And I didn't even do any water marbling either. Ho hum.

The first one that I did [link], only used a total of four. I swear though, after this post, I'll get back to doing reviews!


Polishes Used
Base Coat: O.P.I. Nail Envy (Not Pictured)
Top Coat: Sally Hansen Insta-Dry Topcoat

From Zoya: Apple, Tanzy and Ivanka
From Wet n Wild - Fergie: Gold Album and New Years Kiss
Sinful Colors: Snow Me White
Hard Candy: Teeny Greeny (used as an overlay)

Happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone! 

In my house we celebrate our heritage around the clock, every single day. I'm very proud to be able to tell people that my Grandmother had been born and raised (until she was 6) in Co. Wicklow and that we still have family in Dublin.

Without further ado, onward to the eye of the day!

Holiday: St. Patrick's Day Inspired Nails

With St. Patrick's Day just around the corner, I wanted to get this up before I change my nails tomorrow (Saturday) night with another St. Paddy's Day nail.

I actually ended up doing this around 1am in the morning, a bit delirious so I didn't think of doing a still photo tutorial, but it isn't difficult AT ALL. A quick note, I have always done free hand nail art/design. It's something that I love doing, and have been doing for 11 years. Oddly enough, my right hand normally comes out 10x better than my left, I'm right handed though. It's a quirk of mine.

And can I just say that, my pinky has a mind of it's own? Seriously, it doesn't want to line up with the rest of my fingers. Apparently, it wants to go to it's own drum beat and go off to left field. I'm working on it though.
