Week 01: Easter

01-easter

So Pintrest and YouTube and Instagram are full of ideas for Easter nails, but I wanted to keep things pretty simple. I love the look of polka-dot nails, so I went with a skittles mani in spring colors and simple dots. It didn’t take too long, since the dots weren’t fussy, and I like how it came out. I only photographed the one hand, but my right hand has the same base colors in a different order, and different colored dots, so they’re not exactly mirror images.

A year of pretty hands

So my friend Becca and I have recently got into nail art and have gone a little wild with polishes and manicures. I’ve been reading a lot of nail polish blogs, and many of them commit to a new manicure every day, or at least several a week. That’s way too tough for me, but I wanted to try something fun and ongoing. So Becca and I modified the 31-day challenge to a 52- week challenge, taking a lot of the prompts and adding our own. Each week, we’re going to post pictures of our manicures. Mine will be here and on Instagram, and Becca’s on Instagram.

Here’s our challenge list! I’m pretty excited for a year of pretty nails.
