It’s almost Christmas!

Lots of glitter and handpainted robins and baubles this year, and not all of it red!

It’s almost a brand New Year and a fresh new start for me. I’m away on holiday from 8th – 27th January then after that, I get my head down and get stuck in! I am booked on a couple of new courses to further my skills, one for nail art and one for lashes. I need to get the main site finished which I hope to do over Christmas…fingers crossed!

Have a great Christmas and Best Wishes for 2015

Christmas Nail Designs

I finally managed to get down to some new Christmas designs. I’m not doing ‘cute’ and definitely no minions! I have a list a mile long of other Things To Do, as I cross one off  I seem to  add another. I still need to finish this site, get a price list sorted and move forward.  On a plus side I have organised all my stationery, client record cards, storage and all Christmas cards are written.

no limits to achieve

Easily sidetracked

I’ve had a few days home alone (he was in Malaga!) and had a great time prancing about in a tidy house – apart from my studio which ended up in a glittery pigmented mess! Susie has asked for Robins on her nails for her Christmas appointment so I had a play with them too. This time she had holly details on ring fingers.

I created an advent calendar last year with different nail art each day. Looking back is interesting but I have to move forward! These are the swatches for this year. Below these are some previously designed swatches I painted for 2013.
