Sweet Tooth Heaven

24 Feb

There are time when my nails are just too short to do anything, so I bought a pack of full tips to design to my heart’s content. Ten tips each ranging in sizes 0 – 9. You just glue them on and BAM! you’ve got some great tips :) Since these were my first, I had some trial and errors. However, they turned out beautiful and I received plenty of comments.

I used the sweet cake fimo pieces I got from my holiday haul and just used white acrylic powder to make the bows and lollipop sticks. The bows are hard to make and definitely takes time, patience and a whole lot of practice. If anyone has used acrylic powder, you know what I’m talking about!

Any suggestions on what I should do next or what I should try? I was thinking of using buttons and bows next, but I need to stock up on materials. I’m quite particular about appearance and functionality while having the nails on, so I don’t want anything too bulky. So far, I’m liking this full tip pack I bought. My only concern is…what do I do with all the sizes that don’t fit me?

Such a cute video. I know fashion shows don’t focus much on nails, but since they are trending these days it’s nice to give them a little focus.

NYFW 2012: The Fiercest Nail Art

NY Fashion Week F/W 2012: The Fiercest Nail Art ~ Full Post

Deborah Lippmann’s “Fade to Black” & “I’m Not Innocent” for the Kate Spade show

One of my favorites on the list. Polka dots are trending for sure! If you want to get the look, check out my tutorial for Polka Dots.

You can see that this season is all about the shape of the nails and of course color. The shape is rounded and elongated to make your fingers slender and more feminine. You can dress them up, dress them down or keep them neutral. Whatever it is, nails are definitely becoming a hot accessory!
