Squiggly freehand nail art
Hi everyone!
Well, it’s been a while. Seven long months to be precise. It turns out caring for an infant while trying to finish grad school during a pandemic takes up a lot of time – who knew?

Baby Boy Animal Nails
Hi everyone!
Today I have some pretty blue nails to share with you, inspired by a cute baby onesie. I got a onesie in a gift box from Amazon that had cartoon animals on it – the animals plus a blue background made for some fun baby boy nails!

Hi everyone!
It’s officially winter here in Minnesota! We’ve survived the season’s first snowstorm and had some gorgeous icicles hanging from the roof of our apartment. Perfect weather for some nail art!

Hi everyone!
In the wake of all of that crazy Polish Pickup swatching, I was in the mood for some nail art. Despite the fact that it’s cold midwinter here, I had a craving for some freehand floral nails. I accidentally managed to make these look just a little Christmassy, which was not my intention, but I like them all the same!

Hi everyone!
It’s day 4 of the Digital Dozen does Holo! As always, this week is flying by. I feel like Digital Dozen weeks go faster than any other time! So far this week, I’ve shared a holo needle drag, some holo-on-holo rose stamping, and a Christmassy holo water marble.
Today I’ve kept the Christmassy theme going, although I’ve used a not-quite-traditional colour scheme. I really like the look I’ve done for today and I hope you’ll enjoy it too!
Candy Corn Nail Art
Hi everyone!
I have a fun Fall/Halloween look to share with you today – Candy Corn nails! Even though I’m not a big fan of candy corn – and I’m not sure anyone is – it’s perfect for nail art. It has a distinctive look and fun colours!

Hi everyone!
It’s Digital Dozen week! This week’s theme is Inspired by Each Other. We were originally going to do something a bit different for the month of May, a rotation week where we’d each do a guest post on a different member’s blog each day of DD week, but sadly that didn’t work out, so inspired by each other it is. For my first look of the week, I’ve done an abstract floral inspired by this look by Marisa of Polish those Nails. (more…)

Hi everyone!
It’s day 2 of the Digital Dozen does Mythical Creatures! I am really loving what the other DD members have come up with so far – I’m looking forward to the rest of this week’s nail art! Yesterday, I started the theme off with some freehand dragon nail art. Today, I’ve gone for a far more delicate mythical creature – the fairy. (more…)
The Digital Dozen Does Mythical Creatures | Dragon Nails
Hi everyone!
It’s Digital Dozen week! This week’s theme is Mythical Creatures. I am so excited for this one – I love fantasy and the mythical creatures that go along with it. I also think I’ve done at least a couple of good nail art looks for this week that I am excited to share with you! For my first look of the week, I went with the first creature I always think of associated with anything fantastical or mythical – the dragon! (more…)
The Digital Dozen Does My Home – Jacarandas in Pretoria
Hi everyone!
As I mentioned in my snowy Minnesota home post earlier this week, I’m at an out-of-town conference this week so I wasn’t able to do all 5 Digital Dozen manicures for the ‘my home’ theme. This is the second one I was able to finish, and it’s for my childhood home. I grew up and spent most of the first 2 decades of my life in Pretoria, South Africa. Pretoria is known as the Jacaranda City for its many streets lined with Jacaranda trees. (more…)
