One of my favorite things to do when I get bored is my nails. I love to do little, mini art that a ton of people see and compliment. Yes, I’m fishing. So, when I’m not cooking or napping or doing homework, I’m either looking for new ways to do my nails, or doing my nails!
I would absolutely love a Konad for some AWESOME designs, but since I don’t have one, I’m going to feature some videos that I’d love to try (or have tried!) that I think look cool.

This one is a splatter design that I hope to try soon. I did something similar two years ago, but I just dotted the nails and did some drip and pull type stuff. I like this more-random look. Plus it looks a lot easier than what I did!

This one is just epic. I have a brush now, so it’s theoretically possible to do, but my nails aren’t long enough, and it’s super intimidating. Hopefully sometime though!

These are just cute. I’m a big fan of penguins, and I think they’d go really well for a winter look. I’d totally do blue nails with white snowflakes and these cuties on the index fingers. CUTE!

I just found this one and fell in love. It’s cute and simple, and if I didn’t just do my nails, I’d try it.

This is what’s on my nails right now. I always loved Lisa Frank when I was little, but plain and non-licensed notebooks and folders were cheaper so I never got any LF. I actually still like like it, but can’t justify buying any. I guess my nails will have to do until I have a daughter to spoil. Or a niece. Which will be hopefully soon, because my best friend just found out she’s pregnant and I’m really hoping it’s a girl (so sick of my friends having boys!)
Do you like nail art as much as I do? How do you feel about Lisa Frank? Do you think it’s going to be a boy or a girl?
