I'm so happy to say that I now work for Disney! And in the department I'm based, I ALLOWED TO PAINT MY NAILS! I'm just so excited to be able to enjoy my passion again. Due to my job and shift patterns, there was never any point in doing my nails nice. BUT NOW I CAN DO THEM ALL THE TIME! Expect more posts!

Sooooo my earring collection is growing and I ran out of room. So I made this frame, like, it used to look like the first picture, and now it looks like the second. It's so handy, and also fits in really well with the style of my room!

I went to a hen do, and since I hate dressing up, I have no dressy clothes, so my lovely friend Emily helped a sista out. I copied the pattern on the skirt and painted it onto my nails.

Sorry I'm a bad person and never post anymore. I feel bad for saying this, but I think I'm starting to lose my passion for nail art due to the fact that when I can paint my nails, I can't keep them on for long because I have to take them off for work, therefore I never to anything fancy coz it seems like a waste of time. I really do look forward to having a job where I'm able to paint my nails and not have ugly hands. Anyway, I did this nail art a few weeks ago. It was my first go at using striping tape (as you can see, it's a little messy), I used to class striping tape as cheating (I still class stamping as cheating), but I had seen this look online a few times, so I thought I'd try it out myself. Again, sorry for never posting. I mightn't post as often anymore, but I will still post whenever I do anything crafts or nail art related. Thanks for still following!

Some nail updates. I'm loving this mustard polish, and the dark grey lines on the cuticle really make the colour pop! And I paired up this Sally Hansen glitter that my friend got for me, with a Barry M autumn colour. Both of these designs are so easy to do, and much more fun than a plain colour!

Soooo as you might be able to tell, I made a few Christmas decorations over Christmas, I had these bauble left over so I was like OMG, I can totally make a Frozen wreath. I made the little Olaf outta clay! I'm thinking of making more Disney and traditionally wreaths this year and selling them. So, watch this space!
