Hi!
For this week, we had to do nails inspired by our children, a special child in your life, or our pets. I chose to do a simple mani inspired by my children - I have three boys. The eldest is 11 and the twins are 2.
I kept it very simple and used one coat (this is ONE COAT!) of A-England's Let Me In from the To Emily Bronte collection, then used Sally Hansen Game of Chromes and a dotting tool to do a heart for each boy on my ring finger. I sealed it with a coat of Essence Gel Topcoat.
For the background I used a notebook I got in TK Maxx with the slogan All you Need is Love on it plus a load of scribbles that the boys did when they got hold of it, so it should give you a sense of what the kids are like!
I still can't believe that I only needed one coat of the A-England, I adore their polishes. I have four now and I love every single one of them, the latest collection is stunning.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful. It's the simple manicure that make the most statement sometimes. I haven't been keeping up with A-England but that is a very pretty polish. I can't believe it was one coat!x
ReplyDeleteHey, I didn't know you had kids :) I love your hearts :)
ReplyDeleteA very cute and simple manicure for your three children :)
ReplyDeleteOne coaters are the best! I like how elegant and simple this is :)
ReplyDeleteNEED that polish. So pretty!
ReplyDeleteThree...boys....twins...OMG!
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty! <3
ReplyDeleteThat polish is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful (post/message and your work). Simple, but it says so much.
ReplyDeleteI love that you have done a heart for each of them. I only have one child (also an 11 year old boy), so I don't know how you cope with that (and the pre-teen hormones!) and two-year old twins, *and* still have time to paint your nails and to blog. Good on you!
