This is my first Polish Days Post, I had been umming and ahhing for ages whether or not to sign up, in the end I thought ‘why not?’ and went for it.
Polish days is a fun monthly ‘event’ that loads of bloggers get involved in, and each month has a different theme.
Although technically, last month should have been my first one, illness stopped me, but I wasn’t going to let that happen again, so excuse the photo fails, I took them late last night to make sure I managed to get it done and I don’t really have any good lights for picture taking.
So, this months theme is BLING. Everyone loves a bit of bling, and when I first found out what the theme would be, I had loads of ideas going through my head, as it got closer, these ideas dwindled because bling is something I tend to fail with monumentally, so my final mani was a last minute type of thing and to be honest, it looked much better in my head than it did on my nails.
I used a base of Barry M Denim (lush matte blue-until I added top coat) then I took an old silver necklace and cut bits of the chain off in small lengths. I then added some top coat and stuck them on differently on each finger.
Then I took out my micro beads, I have loads of beads in the wheel that had mixed together, and in the wheel, they look really pretty all mixed, so I poured them on in between the chain curve on my ring finger. These took a LOT of re-adjusting. Then of course, I added the top coat.
I do like this look with the chains on them but think I will plan it a bit more next time I attempt it.
Hope you like them.
