Happy first day of December! I decided that since it’s officially “let’s get ready for Christmas” month I would try my hand at Winter and Holiday nail art. Now as you all know I am by NO means an artist or professional when it comes to my nail art. Unfortunately Instagram and Pinterest give me delusions of grandeur and I have these preconceived visions in my mind that my nail art will look exactly like the inspiration pictures. Every now and then I get a win. And when that happens I look just like this:
Now last week my poor little turkey nail art looked more like a “turdkey” to me than anything. I know most of you were being kind with your comments, but trust me that brown blob looked crazy. LOL Now on the other hand when my nail art is more of a “fail” that excitement and celebration tends to be more like this:
I was so excited about this week’s snowman and I even let it dry for quite sometime before I added my top coat. But in the end I’m still proud of my little snowman. I did have a “moment” though when his one eye and carrot nose smeared…LOL! I used Wet n’ Wild Chambray Showers for the basecoat and just white nail polish for the snow and snowman. So what do you all think of my little snowman? Just makes you want to bust out singing “Do you wanna build a snowman” doesn’t it…haha!
I’m linkng up to Well Shut the Front Door and Simple Nails & Beauty!

Frosty is cute, but leave him on your nails and away from my front yard!
Coily Locks says
LOL! Didn’t Frosty already come to visit you? You know he’ll be knocking on your door soon enough…haha!

He’s melting! Melllllltiiiiiiiinggggg. 😉
But seriously, this is a great mani! And your post had me laughing the whole time. I too am susceptible to Pinterest’s delusions of grandeur. Haha! Love the bright blue and your dots are perfect! Sometimes, that stupid polish is determined to smudge. Grrr…
