Nail Night 5.0

In the middle of August it was time for another nail night with me female colleagues. It has fortunately become a cosy tradition. And with my Partner in Crime it is easy to make nice nails on all of them in one night. We decided to do it a little different this time, with pre-made themes, which we had given names that were not easy to guess: Kiss Kermit, Niagara, FlowerPower, Ladybugs and Summer.

Previously, we have laid a lot of things on the table for inspiration, but since it takes such a long time for them to decide and since they are not that willing to try something new, we thought it was time for them to try something new. I had made stickers with the theme names and put them under the coasters, so we didn't know who got which theme. Here are the colours we used for all the manicures lined up on a tray:

Here I am making ladybugs (please ignore my double chin):

We talked and laughed and had such a cosy time - and some studied the process intensively:

We also talked about some serious subjects:

Hanne had some spare time, so she offered to help me. So she put SIXTY black rhinestones in my ladybug manicure:

When I got the idea of the black rhinestones, I didn't gave it a thought that it was SO many.

Here is Hanne making Niagara, which of course is the waterfall technic which she masters, in summery colours:

 Hanne's FlowerPower theme:

My summer theme (lots of holo, texture-glitter and rhinestones):

My Kiss Kermit theme - green polish with dark green dots:

I loved it so much I made it on my own nails the next week.

And the ladybug theme with the 60 rhinestones:

Hanne and I met the day before to finetune the themes, find the polishes and tools we needed for the manicures and for once I got my nails done:

Hanne made newspaper nails on my nails, and I LOVED them all week. Thank you so much, dear. :)

And thanks for a really lovely night to all my great colleagues. We'll definately do it again.
