Waving bye bye

Before I started this blog my nails were never long. And I don't mean they were just short. There was nothing there, no free edge, nothing, because I used to bite my nails. Naughty! Now my nails are so long I wake up with them digging into my palms! Or I was.

I was cutting some veg for dinner and sliced a bit more then just carrots. I thought I'd be furious but actually I was glad. The almond shape, although so pretty, was boring me a bit but I just couldn't bring myself to trim it. But now I have no choice! Do you ever find that some designs look better on different nail shapes? I kind of do, and now that my nails are square I'm discovering a whole new world of possibilities.

This is my little twist on dry brush technique. Instead of sliding my brush straight down my nail I went from side to side and created waves! I really like it and the colours make it so cute, don't you think? This was inspired by a pattern I saw on the OPI Avojuice Violet Orchid. I ALMOST bought it but stopped myself in the last minute. I dont think my bank balance would appreciate that!

Thanks for reading! Xx
