For anyone who's interested in nail stuff...

For anyone who's interested in nail stuff (Nancy, Morgan), these are some of the stamping plates I've got so far.

I have a folder full.  Don't judge me.  They are cheap, some have been gifts, and I can re-use them forever.  😛

Bundle Monster set BM-301 - BM-325

Red Angel set RA-110 - RA-121

Mash set Mash-26 - Mash-50

Cheeky set CH30 - CH55

Winstonia set W101 - W120

I'm sorry, but this is NOT a comprehensive list.  I have a few random Konad's, some without a name, some weird ones I bought from ebay...  It would be hard to name them all.  But, the sets listed all work pretty well so if you're just starting out I would definitely recommend any of those.  Red Angel would be the bottom of the list, but that's because their full-nail designs are pretty small.  That's kind of a bummer.  😐

Most of these sets can be found on Amazon so just go on there and see which one has more images / designs that you like and then go for it.  Sometimes the photos are really too small to see well - so in that case look it up on YouTube.  People make videos showing the plates and usually do a short demo on how it works / how well the plates work so that would be really helpful.

Once you get your plates all you really need to purchase is a good stamper.  You can use an old gift card or whatever as a scraper and since it's plastic it won't scratch up your plates.  I hate with a passion the metal scrapers.  😳

Anyway, let me know if you have any questions!  If I've done a manicure with an image in particular that you like let me know and I'll look up which plate it's on for you.  🙂

So the Anniston Wal-Mart...

So the Anniston Wal-Mart is re-vamping their cosmetics isle.  HOW EXCITING!  They are expanding their polish area and it's all very nice and well-lit with LED's.  😃😃😃

Also, they now carry dog nail polish.  😃

Also, I discovered a Riteway Beauty Supply near my house last week.  It was closed when I stopped last weekend, but it was open today.  They have some OLD ASS goodies in there.  Very exciting!  😃

This is what I'm wearing today!

This is what I'm wearing today!  I did everything to them.  😂  Was in the mood for purple for whatever reason.  🙂

Nobody pinch me tomorrow...

 Nobody pinch me tomorrow - I'm wearing my green!  😃

Who didn't see this coming a mile away?

Who didn't see this coming a mile away?  In honor of my first wildlife rehab call.  😃

This took a while to do...

Hey Emily... remember that cool nail idea I had?  I didn't forget.  😃

This took a while to do, but it was fun.  The colors are all new Hard Candy colors except for the black and the white.  I'm pretty happy with how it all turned out, except for the "pow" on the middle finger.  I don't know if something was up with my image plate or what, but that one didn't transfer nicely AT ALL.  Oh well.  I still like it!

Zebra stripes on one of my new Hard Candies!

Zebra stripes on one of my new Hard Candies!  Pardon the big black hair on my pinkie - I'm pretty sure that is from Nappy.  She rubs all over my sweater every day so there's never a shortage of dog hair on me.  😂  When I saw that I thought "I'll just re-take the photo" and then I promptly knocked a chunk of paint off while cleaning the roach water dish.  So, it is what it is.  😃

For anyone who's interested in nail polish:

For anyone who's interested in nail polish:  Walgreen's has some cool new stuff.  They have these cake-pop looking bottles of pretty colors with sparse glitters (I used one in my last photo of nails), and also the new textured Milani's.  Wal-Mart also has new Hard Candy polishes.  They are so pretty that I WANT THEM IN MY MOUTH!!!  😳  I noticed that they have picked up a few new brands like that Salon whatever it is and a couple of others that I can't remember, but that drug stores usually have.  ALSO, K-Mart is closing in two weeks so all of their stuff is 50 - 80% off right now - including the polish.  And finally, I scoped out what Publix has.  Nothing that any other place doesn't already have, but their OPI's are cheaper.  🙂

So I went for something different...

So I went for something different.  TOTALLY DIFFERENT.  😂

Michael Jackson nails

Michael Jackson nails.  These did not last long.  I was popping off studs left and right.  😂😂😂
