Spring Is On My Nails

Gorgeous weather in Texas today (after a HUGE downpour of rain and assorted thunderstorms yesterday)! This calls for a springy [self] manicure!


What sparked this idea? I bought BON BONS NAIL POLISH at Walmart. Um, did anyone else collect these like I did back in the good ol' days? And of course, it's mini-size and I adore all things mini.


Here was my inspiration via Pinterest and this website:

And here's what I did to copy:

First, I painted all my nails the same color [this soft pinkish/goldish is noticeable enough but not TOO much: very delicate and romantic for spring!] And please forgive me for the marker on my fingers... I do teach Kindergarten :)


I painted only my ring fingers with the glittery glitter nail polish... Again, just subtle enough! Not overly glam... Although compared to my inspiration photo, it looks like I need MORE glitter! Ha!


Super cute! Or am I five years old? If I'm wrong, I don't wanna be right!

  2. OMG! I totally collected the bon-bon little bottles of nail polish! I wish had a steady enough hand and could paint my own nails, but I just can't :o( they look great though!

  5. so cute!! do your nails last very long?? I feel like as soon as I paint my nails the next day a few are chipped and then I just ruin them all! Maybe I should keep trying!
