New Years Manicure

Happy New Year! Hope all of you have a great 2012!

I wanted to create a special manicure to help me ring in the new year.

I started with two coats of OPI DS Magic. Sometime I'll have to take a picture of it alone. Unfortunately this time I was a little too lazy.

Next I applied a coat of Cult Nails Clairvoyant (aka Unicorn Puke). This was my first Cult Nails polish and I absolutely love it. I can see myself buying many more in the future.

Next, I painted 2012, one number on each nail, on my index to pinkie nail. I replaced the zero with a picture of the new years eve ball they drop at midnight in New York City. I used a combination of silver polishes to create it. The rest of the numbers were done with black polish topped with silver glitter. For the thumb nail I tried to make it like confetti was being thrown using OPI Rainbow Connection.

(Hope you can make the numbers out clearly)

Anyways, hope you had a great year and even better year this year,

I'm not one for making many resolutions but I have a few ones for this blog:

1.) I definitely want to post more often and be on a more organized schedule for it.

2.) I want to take better pictures and make sure I have enough light for my photos.

3.) I want to create a distinct image for this blog with more uniform posts.

These resolutions will definitely be a work in process over the year but I hope I can say I've accomplished them by the end of year.

Did you celebrate the new year with a themed manicure? What are some of your resolutions?

On To The Next Polish,
