Hook 'Em and Cook 'Em!
Hey, everyone!
This design has been sitting in a folder for over a month so I suppose it's time to let it see the light of day! Can you guess what this mani is based on? Keep reading to find out!

2 Spoopy 4 Me!
Hey, everyone!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! As much as I would've loved to do dozens of Halloween themed manis this year, I suppose just one or two will suffice. At least I got to wear these for a few days first! Keep reading to find out how I achieved this spooktacular look!

FIRE IN THE HOLE!
Hey, everyone!
Funny thing about me and video games - I know quite a bit about various games and even gameplay, but I rarely play them myself. I like to consider myself an observer rather than a gamer. And when it comes to Overwatch, I absolutely suck at playing, but I still love it to death! So I wanted to create some nail art to honor my obsession/love of this game and everything it entails. Keep reading!

Daisies of Darkness
Hey, everyone!
It's finally Summer break for me, which means no more substitute teaching until the Fall! It also means I'll be helping my grandparents move out of their large home and property as they prepare to move into a smaller house in town, so that will be quite the adventure! Anyway, check out these nails I wore last week!

Butterflies Glitterfied
Hey, everyone!
I think this design is fitting to post today (although I wore it about a week ago) because we finally have some intermittent sunshine today! It's basically been dreary and raining on and off for the last week and a half in addition to having flood concerns looming over us all. So some nice cheery butterflies are just what I needed! Keep reading to find out more!

Life Update & A Special Legacy
Hey, everyone!
I'm sorry I've been MIA this week. You may have seen stuff about Oroville Dam and its damaged spillway(s) in the news recently. Well, my town is downriver from the dam, and there has basically been an evacuation order (downgraded to an advisory) in effect for the entire past week, just in case the (already full) river breeches the levees and causes a massive flood. I haven't been able to go to work because all the schools are closed, and it's been a really stressful week. The storm system this weekend is only putting more pressure on the issue, but the updates this morning seem to be good ones. So I'm trying to catch up on some posts until they possibly tell us we need to get out!
Update out of the way, this mani and this post are very special to me. My academic advisor from college recently and suddenly passed away. We were very close, since I was one of only two graduating chem majors in my graduating year, and he was simply put the most lovely and genuine gentleman I have ever met. I will tell you more about him in this post, but this mani is what I wore to his "celebration of life" service. Please keep reading for more!

Today's post is a little late going up, but it's worth the wait! I was inspired by the ever-talented Sveta Sanders, who shared this technique a while back and I just knew I had to try it! Keep reading to find out what I did to get her look!

Hey, everyone!
This nail art is a bit funky. And by "a bit" I mean it's "very" funky! It's inspired by a tropical bird! But not a pretty parrot. Keep reading to find out what bird I took my inspiration from for this mani!
