Tabla Nails and Black & Silver Tips

It's been a while since I've posted, but I haven't stopped doing my nails!  Here are the designs I had over the last couple weeks.  (Some of the pics are from my phone camera)

Black and Silver Tips - I saw this on tv and then I saw online again, so then I tried it out.  

 Harmonium Nails - This was for a performance where I was playing the harmonium. 

 Tabla Nails - For my first real tabla performance! It looks white, but the other nails were actually yellow.  

Blue Jewels

I had an exam on Friday...so on Thursday I painted my nails as a way to relax.  I started out with just a few dots on the ring finger, but my brother said it looked like a 'J' and that I did the design for Justin Bieber's birthday.  That definitely was not true.  So I just filled in the whole nail since I finally got a dotting tool! (and a little sparkle)  

BMW Nail Art

I love BMWs.  I have yet to own one, but I do dream of having a BMW M6.  I don't know if it'll ever happen, but I can still wish, right?

So in honor of that beautiful car...

I'll admit that this is probably my least favorite creation because of how many things that are wrong with it - from the misshapen '6' to the wrong shade of blue.  Gotta keep trying til I get better at it though!    

Sunshine on a Cloudy Day

I was in a good mood on this post-valentine's cloudy day and this song came to mind...

So here's a design based on it...

First Attempts at Nail Art

My first attempt was so lackluster that I didn't even take a picture of it.  Orange nails, ring finger glittery gold with a 50 in orange to celebrate my uncle's 50th birthday at his surprise party.   

So then I thought I would be ambitious and try something for the Superbowl (even though I strongly dislike football) and came up with this...

The picture isn't very good quality and the work is sloppy, but I was proud of my first attempt and surprisingly received positive feedback about it.    

And now I took on a real challenge and wanted a design of something I loved for filler until I did a Valentine's Day look.  So I thought I would do a Google theme (because I love everything about Google) and I found an incredible design at http://foryournailsonly.net/2010/09/what-are-you-searching-for.html. (Thanks for the design!)  I knew I couldn't come up with a simpler or better design than that, so I just replicated it and added a bit for the other hand.

    

Since my color collection is limited, the colors are all acrylic paints and white is Pure Ice Super Star.
