I did this NOTW last week during st. patty's day. It was the perfect color. China Glaze- Four leaf clover(le). Also used a bit of fimo clay and various art deco polishes. The flash really shows the blue tones in this polish. It's a gorgeous green color though..
I didn't go out drinking or anything on that day. It's actually my dad's birthday..I took him to dinner but on that friday...

NOTW: 3D art
I tried my hand at 3d art with fimo clay and some small silver beads. I ain't gonna lie, these little beads were a bitch to work with. Too tiny even for nail tweezers. So I ended up just scooping the shits out and sprinkling them like sugar. Don't know how much I will use those due to how hard they are to decorate with. Fimo clay can be my friend sometimes. It's really only my second time using them and I had some curl up on me because I didn't put a top coat right away. I'm liking the 3d effect but it takes a little time to get use to the chunkiness. I got my uv lamp last week along with my gels. I have yet to try it out though...
My apologies for the sloppiness of the CG polish..looks yuck.. It was 12am and I wasn't trying to get it perfect at that point..

Lack of updates is basically laziness. I've been busy but I've been on twitter all the time too so I'm not that busy. I'm just to lazy to upload pics and blah blah blah. Anyways...
I made homemade lasagna, deviled eggs, and sauteed garlic spinach maybe 2 weeks ago. No recipes to jot down though, I just thought I'd post some food porn. Also made some pan seared salmon, baked potato, and broccoli.
The flowers were from a thai restaurant that my dad and I went too. It was made out of radishes. how pretty!
