For my second Halloween mani this month, I’m going to show off one I originally made for the Lacquer Dreams Halloween challenge, but then I ended up dropping the challenge aspect in order to not feel overwhelmed between Halloween challenges, Mish Mash, and Tri-Polish and post Halloween manis on my schedule.

Glittery, Glowy Ghosts
StandardYay it’s October! Today marks the first month of three filled with fantastical holiday manis (Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.) I missed out on the holiday mani fun last year because it was during my unexpected hiatus, but I’ve managed to avoid burning myself out this year, so that won’t be a problem.
And I’m admittedly starting off with yet another challenge (but I have some looks that are challenge independent.) This one is put on by Lacquer Dreams.
Dotty Florals
StandardGood evening everyone! I’m here tonight with the first manicure for July’s Nail Challenge Collaborative theme, which happens to be flowers.
For my first flower manicure, I went with a simple flower dotticure (which I haven’t done before this mani, if you can believe that.)
Alien Puppies
StandardHello everyone! I’ve got an early morning treat for you guys! This is my final look for The Nail Challenge Collaborative’s Neon theme.
Sunday Stamping: Inspired by my Swimsuit
StandardHey everyone! I’m back with a Sunday Stamping mani! This week the challenge was to do a mani inspired by our new swimsuit, dress, or shoes. And seeing as the only one of the three I currently have at the ready is my new swimsuit, so that’s what I did.
Sunday Stamping: Inspired by a Fairy Tale
StandardIt’s Sunday, so that means it’s challenge day at Adventures in Stamping. This week’s challenge was “Inspired by your favorite fairy tale.” Well, I don’t really have a favorite fairy tale, so I went down the list of my favorite Disney movies until I came across one I liked that I could work with given my limited stamping supplies.
The At Home Salon: Freehand Nail Art Tools
Standard
(Couple items got missed in this preview collage since I’d forgotten about them until I started tagging my post, lol. Also, my brushes are missing from the post because they’re currently in storage, and I didn’t feel like going all the way there just to grab them. Also not pictured are my water marbling supplies, but that’s a plastic cup and some water.)
Another slightly different post from me today. I’ve built up quite the collection of nail art tools and supplies, but I don’t think I’ve ever spotlighted any of them. So today I’ve decided to spotlight everything I’ve got!
This is not going to include my stamping gear, that’s going to be in another post.
