Here’s this month’s nail art style. It’s quite girly and blingy.


I love these nails, they’re my favorites so far! They have a pink base with black tips. The large jewels were put on first then the multi-coloured jewels and little balls to fill in the gaps. The last stage was the gold argyle pattern on the pink bits. Very sparkly and very attention grabbing!

I love this kind of nail art, super bling for the win!

Yum yum pancakes!

I forgot to post about this, it actually happened quite a while ago… like before Christmas!Anyway James‘ friend Wouter came from Holland to stay with us for a while and we all went out to dinner at the Pancake Manor.

James being silly!

Wouter trying to enjoy his dinner!
I loooove pancakes, some girls would be all dainty about eating fatty foods like pancakes. Well I say bring me a funnel! Knives and forks are for suckers! Only joking of course I behaved with complete restraint like a good girl 😉Me trying to eat!

I take thee hammer: adventures in diy

My introduction to fixing things and diy.

Today I bought a little pink portable nail polish dryer. It’s quite adorable but as it only cost $10 it’s not the most well make piece of craftsmanship in the universe. It wasn’t exactly made in the alps by blind virgin monks in solid gold castles.

So after taking it out of the box I noticed an annoying knocking sound when the fan turned.

I got out my tools and set to work. Yay for floral tool sets!
Fixing things has never been a talent of mine but after half an house or so of tinkering my little dryer work brilliantly!The only problem is that after gloating and rubbing my awesome talents in James’ face I noticed that I have 3 screws left over…Oh well! No one needs to know!After all that hard work I decided to have some fun and deco the little guy. Who doesn’t love Decoden?Meet my deco’d finger eater, NOM NOM NOM NOM!Unfortunately I ran out of jewels half way through, I’ll post some photos once I get around to placing another Strapya order.
