Nail Art A Go Go Challenge! ~ Day 11 Wallpaper

Hello Dahlings!

 

Today we get to show you our wallpaper. I had this great idea based on da bathroom wallpaper our landlady had when I was like 4, but it didn't work. I then tried another method hoping to get the result I wanted...no go. So I came up with a 3rd idea that I discarded & ended up doing this...

 

My Flocked Wallpaper

I wanted to do a stereotypical 70's, mid-west, eye-talian,

red flocked brocade on white, whore's boudoir motif...

but just couldn't get it to work.

(This isn't meant to insult anybody living in da mid-west

or of Italian decent, it's just a particular style

that was popular back then tho it was probably called something else.)

 

 Da line up ~ Ruby Kisses French White,

Recollections Party Pink flocking powder,

Orly Top2Bottom & chevron French tip sticker forms.

 

I started with 2 coats of French White & a coat of Seche Vite.

I applied da stickers to all my nails

then applied da T2B to one nail,

peeled da stickers off & piled on da flocking powder.

At least this is what I did for my pinky. ring & middle fingers.

When I got to my index finger I forgot

to take da stickers off after applying da powder

...guess what? More of da powder stuck to my nails!

I peeled da stickers off right after I powdered my nail & got better results.

I did da same for my thumb.

This flocking powder was really scratchy & I didn't like how it felt. 

I used a dif brand of flocking powder last time I did this

& it was much softer & stuck better to da polish.

Good thing I only wore this for one day

cuz by da next morning, most of da flocking had rubbed off.

Blerg. 

 

 

 

Tomorrow's nails are much more to my liking...Camouflage!

Must run away from da fuzzy nails...

...before dey eats my cuteness!

 

Thanks for stopping by & please visit da other ladies!
