Purple Sparkly Nails

Happy Thursday Friends, 

Can't believe it's Thursday already.  This week went really fast.  I am having a Crazy Hat Kentucky Derby potluck on Saturday for the race and really looking forward to hanging out with friends and just having fun after the crazy that my personal life has been the last month. 

I have many nails to show you in the next few days.  I am determined to get caught up with my blog posts by the end of this weekend.  Tonight I am going to show you a mani I did last week.  I do have a gradient mani to post too that I did do a little tutorial on.  Hoping to get that one posted tomorrow night.  Right now I am watching one of my all time favorite movies ever on TV, The Lost Boys, the vampire movie from the 1980's, back when vampires were still bad ass and not sparkly, LOL.

Anyways, on to the nails.  I used a base of Orly Bonder, two coats of Fresh Paints "Glastonberry" and one coat of Polish Me Silly "Freckles" on my thumb and ring finger accent nails, then I did one coat of one of my Melly Mixes that I made mixing different polishes together to get a fun sparkly top coat. Then I finished them off with one coat of Seche Vite Quick Dry Top Coat.  The first pics are the truer to color pics taken in a more yellowish light and the bottoms ones were taken in the bright light of my kitchen.  I love this simple, yet sparkly and pretty mani.  Glitter, it just makes me happy, yay.

Orly Bonder, Fresh Paints "Glastonberry", Polish Me Silly "Freckles", Melly Mix, Seche Vite Quick Dry

 I forgot to take a pic of Glastonberry on it's own, boo, it's a really pretty purple and I love these orchid shades so much.  Will use it again and get a pic of it on it's own then. 

I am working on getting back into regularly posting again now that life has settled down and some form of normalcy has come back in my life.  I have had a lot of changes and things to accept and move on from which I may get into one day on my blog, but, don't want to right now.

I leave you with my fur babies, Buster and Miss Betty.  I love my fur kids so much, they really have been and continue to be my furry little rocks during this weird and transitional time in my life.  A life without kitties in it is not a life I ever want. 

I'll talk to you all tomorrow night and I look forward to posting more regularly again for sure.

Polish, Purrs & Peace,

Melly
