December

I can't believe this year is almost over!

Here it is already December and I feel like we should still be somewhere around late October.

I haven't updated in a couple of weeks, either, so there are a couple of recent manis missing from this blog. Oh well. On with the now, eh?

Here in Minnesota, we've only just been brushed with snow, thankfully, but I'm sure it's coming!

I've been wanting to do another jelly stampwich for a bit, so that's the inspiration for today's mani.

(Sorry about the crappy picture)

I need more snowflake/winter-themed stamps! :)

Nails and Knitting

I'm still on quite a brown kick. I just love the warm shades of almond, coffee, chocolates... Oh wait, those are food. Well, you know what I mean. ;)

Today's mani is a simple one, but I'm happy with the end result. I chose a basic floral silhouette and stamped it in pieces on the bias over my nails.

I'm also showing a little bit of knitting I've been doing. A friend of mine asked me to make a hat and mittens set for her mother in law. Hopefully the mittens will speed along like the hat has!

Salted Chocolate

Drive by posting today!

I have a busy afternoon and evening but I squeezed in a mani - fresh nails always make me feel better!

There's a discontinued OPI polish from a couple of Winters ago called "Holiday Glow" that I desperately want, but I can only find it as a part of a mini set. Today's mani is kind of a "close as I can get for now" homage to it. ;)

Polishes used:

Revlon Colorstay Gel-Smooth Base Coat

They kind of remind me of delicious Salted Chocolate candies! Very Autumnal = ❤
