Hey Dolls,

I know i haven't been doing my weekly nail art posts that i said i would do :( since the weekend starts tomorrow, i thought I'll share with you girls what nail art design I'll have on my nails for the weekend :)
Basically, this design isn't my own, i was inspired by a YouTube video i watched and i was interested to give it a go.  I have to say it's really easy to do and you need is :

♥ A dotting tool

♥ 6 Nail polish colours of your choice

Steps: (See pictures below)

1.Start of by painting your nails with a base coat to protect your natural nails.

2.Then paint the nail with the colour of your choice, I painted my nails purple.

3.Next taking the dotting, create 6 small dots to form a small circle using White nail polish.

4.Once you have done that, create 7 small dots using Yellow nail polish   next to the white dots.

5.Repeat step 4 but this time using Green nail polish and Dark Blue nail polish.

6.Once it's all done, place a small dot using  Red Nail Polish in between the white circles that you have created at the beginning.

7. Paint off with a top coat.


  


Final Look :)



Hey Dolls,


I went shopping with my mum on Sunday afternoon to our local supermarket to get a few products that i was running out of (my daily bath products), and i thought I'll show you what i got.  Apart from my 'daily bath &body products' i also bought four new products that i had to give them a try, after much  recommendations from my relatives and friends who are currently using these products, and there are - Palmolive Aroma Therapy (Sensual), Palmer's Olive Oil Formula Smoothing Shampoo, Nivea Shower Cream (Starfruit & Aloe Vera) & Vaseline (Total Moisture Aloe Fresh). I'm super excited to try them out, and might be doing a review on them just to share my opinions :) so stay tune for that...

Hey Dolls,

For the weekend  i did my long awaited and requested nail tutorial - Peacock Nail Art.  Since i finally bought the required nail colours for it, i thought i should give it a go, and the photos below are all done on my my first try and must say that i did get pretty good compliments on my Facebook page :) 

Product Used


♥ Turquoise nail polish by Nail LACQUER
♥ Gold nail polish by Constance Carroll - Sandcastle
♥ Blue nail polish by Aisai
♥ Dark Blue nail polish by The Face Shop
♥Dotting Tool
♥ Toothpick

Steps:

 Apply a base coat to help protect your natural nails.

Start off by painting your nails a solid turquoise colour.

Then using your dotting tool, take some Gold colour to create some large circles.

Next go in with the Blue polish and create small circles.

The final circles will be smaller Dark Blue ones on top of the Blue circles.

And the last step is to take a toothpick with the turquoise nail polish and create a small line at the bottom of the dark blue circles.

Finally add a top coat to protect your design & that's it :)

Hey Dolls,

Here's yet another mini project that's really cool and fun to do and i really wanted to share and teach you girls on how to achieve your very own Bow Rings at a lesser cost.  Plus it's also  perfect gifts to friends and love ones.  So basically, what you'll need is four things :

-Ribbon (1/4" or 1/2")
-Needle & Thread
-Hot Glue
- Rings (Found in craft stores)

Steps:
1.  Taking any preferred colour ribbon, cut two & half inches of the ribbon.

2. Then bring the ends together,as your doing that do fold it so it kinda outlines the shape.

3. Next taking your needle and thread, go through in a in-out sequence for about 3 times. (see picture below)


4. Then you're gonna wrap the string around the ribbon a few times so this helps secure
the shape of the bow. Once done, keep that aside.(See pictures below)


5. Cut out another small piece of ribbon and fold it into two, glue the folded side.

6. Taking the bow, wrap the small piece of ribbon and glue it down firmly. 

7. Finally glue the bow to the ring and  allow it to dry ...

Vola and you got you're  very own  Bow Ring  :) Sorry that i forgot to take pictures of step 5 & 6, but by follow the steps mentioned i sure you'll be able to get it right :)

Ps: Do let me know  what you think about this D.I.Y project and if you do give it a try let me know xx

Hey Dolls,

I'm gonna teach you a way that can help jazz up your bedroom walls, cupboards, or maybe as a gift to someone etc. by doing your every own collage of the things you fancy, love, inspire, like basically anything of your choice.  It's really simple to do and inexpensive, plus you'll have an amazing time doing it :) So the things you'll need to get started :

• Some old magazines
• Scrape Booking Paper
• Scissors
• Glue
• Blu tack

 Start off my going through the old magazines looking for interesting pictures and wordings that captures your attention.

Using a pair of scissors cut out the selected pictures and wordings. Once that's done, arrange them on the scrape booking paper so it gives you a rough picture on how you'll want it to look like and to see if you need more pictures or wordings to fill up any empty space.

After sorting the final layout, glue the pictures and wordings on the scrape booking paper and allow it to dry. Take some blu tack and stick it on to the back of the paper so you'll be able stick the collage anyway in your bedroom :)

Ps. the collage I did is a fashion/food inspired collage. The ones I took from the web may help you get started on one :) So do let me know if you did try this mini project out :) xx
