Anyways the lovely Ladies over at Show Me Your Topcoats are doing a Christmas challenge that happens once every other day until Christmas. Now I'm participating in this like <I then made a Lindsay Lohan joke that was really bad and made me feel sorry for her>. I'll do the challenge when I can.
Anyway today's challenge was Candy Canes! I've been wanting to do this for a while now so I jumped at it. I did plain and red and white candy canes using Claire's Snowball and Fright Nights Claw Polish in Voodoo. I used a combination of striping tape and, scotch tape for the lines. I also made them uneven on purpose. You know those candy canes that have some stripes larger than others. I love how those looks!
Ps. I don't really like candy canes.
Pps. All those candy canes that are in the photos were free. You know take one from the basket. I took 3 handfulls. Merry Christmas suckers!
Ppps. I give them away when I see people. See I'm only mildly horrible.
Those turned out perfect! Great job!
ReplyDeleteLooks great, they really look like candy canes! :)
ReplyDelete3 handfuls is completely justified when you need them for background in a nail art photograph :P
ReplyDeleteI love, love your mani - and also dislike Candy Canes, unless they're the ones that taste like cherry!
I love the stripes - even more so since they are varying. Candy Canes I've never tried, in Switzerland we are more into chocolate (now who would have guessed ;-)) and tons of Christmas cookies
ReplyDeleteI love you candy cane nails, so cool!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteWow, this is awesome!!! Hahaha "Merry Christmas Suckers."
ReplyDeleteHaha your posts always make me laugh! This looks so amazing, perfect stripes :) I'm starting an xmas challenge too!! My first one!
ReplyDeleteThese look amazing, Kas! You really did a fabulous job of getting all your lines crisp and even, and I love that the pattern subtly changes while still looking cohesive and balanced throughout. ♥
ReplyDeleteFree candy canes FTW, suckers!!
I actually love that you did thinner and thicker lines! But how the heck do you line them up so perfectly?
ReplyDeleteThis mani is so cute!
ReplyDeleteI love stripes :-) Very cute manicure, well done! :-)
ReplyDeleteWow that looks so good! Love the different sized stripes! It looks just like a real candy cane :-)

SO awesome! I have to get out my tape and play with it some more!
ReplyDeletethis came out great!
ReplyDeleteYour nails are perfect! The look good enough to eat. Lol! :)
ReplyDeleteMe encantó, se ve muy dulce, jaja
ReplyDeleteI dig! I love how clear the stripes are. :D And taking handfuls of mini candy canes from the basket it a-ok. Unless it's, like, a charity basket. You know, a thank you for donating to Salvation Army or something. But if it was a business, heck yes, you can straight up rob them of their candy canes and still be classy.
ReplyDeleteLove this, it looks exactly like the real thing!
