My Valentine's Day gift from Hubby has FINALLY arrived!!!

Yay! I just got my gift that I purchased on Ebay! A huge set that has 60 pieces of nail art decorations! I also got a couple of extra items to go along with the decorations. I purchased this set from Tamanala's Ebay store.

The set contains 5 different types of decorations with 12 colors of each one! It was a really great price even though I must say her shipping charges are high. When you add the shipping with the extremely low price you basically come out even but I still think it was a good price. The whole set came to about $25 including shipping. Decorations included in the set are glitter dust, steel mini beads, glitter strips, small round glitter and large hexagon glitter.



The other thing I got was a 20 piece set of eyeshadow mineral dust to add to my acrylic to make colored acrylics.


Well Ladies, hope you all enjoy the haul video I've made! And definitely watch out for some more tutorials and experiments! Thanks so much for all of your support and interest. Happy Friday and have an AWESOME weekend!!!

All That Glitters



Hey Ladies! This is the design I decided to do on my own nails. I liked it so much that I decided to use it in another nail art contest! Luxuriousnails is having a nail art contest here so check it out if you're interested. For this design I made the gold glitter acrylic that I used for the disco queen design.

On that I did two different designs. The 1st was done on the pointer, middle and pinky finger. That design was a large 3mm black rhinestone surrounded by gold mini beads and then I put a smaller 2mm black rhinestone on each side and then a gold mini bead on each side of the smaller black rhinestones.

For the second design which I put on my thumb and ring fingers I created a bow out of black acrylic with black glitter. I made this acrylic myself with clear acrylic that I put black eye shadow dust from L.A. Colors {yes the L.A.Colors that you can get in the Dollar Tree (^,^)} and then black glitter that I got in a sample pack from Michael's craft store!

I really hope y'all like this design! Have a great week! Enjoy the tutorial.
