Greetings and Nailutations,
It's a Digit-al Dozen week and this week our prompt is "Indie Love." I picked 5 manis that I've done in the last 6 or so months that have not had their moment on my blog or posted anywhere. (I'm on vacation, so I didn't have time to create new manis - but don't worry, I have some amazing manis to share!) Today I'm sharing the last mani!
Let's get to the details!
A journey through indie nail polish and nail art. Every story has a beginning, so that is why it is BeginNails.

Digit-al Dozen: All That Glitters Is...The Sun
Greetings and Nailutations!
We are now on day 2 of the Digit-al Dozen week prompt of "All That Glitters..." and I'm still going through my day to day life to identify things that glitter to me. Yesterday I talked about my ring (bling bling). Today is looking farther up - THE SUN! More specifically when it's starting to set and it starts glittering behind all the branches of the trees.

Digit-al Dozen: Futuristic Avatar
Greetings and Nailutations,
We are onto day 3 of the Digit-al Dozen continuing with our Futuristic prompt. Another movie that popped into my head was the one with the blue critters... SMURFS?! NO! I thought of Avatar. The 3+ hour feature film that was amazing, yet really long. I googled a few images and decided to make a mani based on their skin patterns.

Beauty Bigbang Watermarble Tool Review
Greetings and Nailutations,
*Press sample*
Today I am sharing a water marble tool I received from Beauty Big Bang. Water marble tools are used in place of pins, toothpicks and other pointy objects to create a water marble design with nail polish in water. They can be cleaned with acetone and can be used over and over (unlike a toothpick which can only be used a certain number of times before it starts falling apart on you).
