Classy Claws: ombre

Beware Paint Fumes!

Hi there! Thanks for checking out my little space here.

There are probably hundreds of nail blogs out there, many of which are fabulous! So why do my own? Well, number 1: it helps me keep track of what I've done. Number 2: I use mostly inexpensive drug store brands of polish, so anything I have you can easily have too. And number 3: I am not a professional, I make a lot of mistakes! If my struggling and fighting with some designs can make someone else not feel so bad about not getting it flawlessly executed, but still feel like they have a fantastic manicure, then I am a happy girl!

Grays for winter days

I have been having a hard time lately picking polishes I am content with. I sometimes have been changing my polish multiple times a day. And haven't been posting because I wasn't happy with any of the results.
Finally though I was able to settle on a gray gradient a few days ago. I used striping tape to block each color.

Grapey Ombre Polka Dots

I'm not yet ready to accept that fall colors are appropriate, but feel like it's time to begin moving away from the summer brights. I wanted to do something quick and simple, but bright.

I mixed different amounts of the medium purpley color that I used for the largest dots with a bright pink to get the different shades.

Turns out to be a good transitional season color scheme I think.
