Yesterday's cookies got me thinking about other cookies... namely, Nutter Butters. Then, thinking about Nutter Butters (besides getting me hungry) made me think of actual peanuts... which, in turn, got me thinking, hey- that might be a fun nail design! So, I bring you- peanut nails! :-D Don't mind the shimmer, apparently nail polish manufacturers can't seem to make a simple golden/tan/beige creme with no shimmer. (or I just don't know about one yet- so if you know of one that is similar to Classic Camel without shimmer, LET ME KNOW!
I used China Glaze Classic Camel as a base, then mixed with MAC Rich, Dark, Delicious for the darker lines, and with American Apparel California Trooper to highlight. Topped everything off with Essie Matte About You.
My left eye is twitching, that can't be good, right?
Amazing manicure!
ReplyDeleteI would also like to know about a gold or tan without shimmer! Is that so hard to make?
don't get too close to any elephants!
ReplyDeleteUgh, that's it. I can't do peanuts, they're icky and they smell yucky. I just can't read your blog anymore, you've broken my heart with these peanut nails...
ReplyDeleteAhh, who am I kidding? I love your nails even when they're yucky peanuts!! *laughs* All kidding aside, this is fantastic as usual!
love the peanut idea. but if you look at your thumb a certain way kinda looks like bamboo lol just saying. i love reading your blog can't wait to see what else you come up with
ReplyDeleteI love nutter butters! And I was JUST thinking that same thought about the non metallic/shimmery beiges when I did my henna design today. Wow, that is really strange!
ReplyDeleteYour design is great! But it makes me hungry...
Wow. that's so cool! how long did it take?
ReplyDeletePeanut butter, yum!
ReplyDeletei discovered your blog few days ago, and looked at your works, i can't believe my eyes, i never thought to make such designs on nails, i wouldn't think that making that kind of desings on nails is possible =) but i deciced to try making something like you do =)
ReplyDeletebys.
I just remembered...does anyone know of a good DARK BROWN nail polish that doesn't have sparkles or anything?
ReplyDeleteTwich...twich... Awesome nails!
ReplyDeleteEye twitching = potassium deficiency! Go eat a banana! Or so I have been told. I am no doctor.
ReplyDeleteBut, peanuts are my favorite of the legumes so I love these nails!!!
Eye twitching can also be stress! That's what happens to me sometimes! I say go get a beer! =)
ReplyDeleteNice nails as usual!
Hello! I think you should do nails decorated with a theme dedicated to Keith Haring. His drawings are cute! I'm from Brazil and I love the Daily Nail, and I think super creative! Access to the site every day!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
I found some nail polishes that are tans/browns that do not look like they sparkle, i am not for sure but it doesn't looklike it has any glitter they are Sally Hensen nail polishes. Heres the link to the Sally Hensen nail site look around and you can find the brown and tan ones. http://www.sallyhansen.com/category.cfm?category=1

As usual, i love the design and am amazed at your talent. I have a Brown that doesn't have a shimmer,it's more of a chocolate brown it's OPI I'm Fondue of you. I did a Konad on my blog on Sept 10 for anyone interested.
ReplyDeleteI forgot about Nutter Butters! Oh my word, those were good cookies. Even as a chocoholic youngster, I fell prey to the charms of the Nutter Butter...
ReplyDeleteDid you find that squirrels were following your every move today? If you go to the park, I'd wear gloves. The little devils are quite thuggish this time of year...
AWESOME work. And amazing assortment of tools to work... Really great!!
