Once upon a time, this would’ve been the day that I spent dyeing eggs. But since I gave up animal stuff, I don’t take part in that tradition anymore. Instead I spent the day decorating my nails!
SpaRitual Truth "Eggs"
I tried to file them in a bit of a rounded way, and used the SpaRitual Truth collection because the colors just looked so Eastery. I bought embossing tools from Michael’s for the spots, and used thin strips of tape for the stripes.
The spots turned out fairly clean, but the stripes took a few tries and still look like they were done by a child. (More authentic then I suppose!)
Anyone have fun Easter plans? Egg hunts, basket exchanging, candy gorging? Entering Colour Coated’s Easter Giveaway if you haven’t already? Exchanging nasty old bottles for some new Zoya polishes?
peace love polish 
Absolutely LOVE your easter egg nails. 🙂 No big plans, I’m more into May Day. Glad to see you posting again, missed you.
Thanks so much! I’m glad to be back and catching up on your blogs. 🙂 I’m curious to hear more about your May Day traditions.
I LOVE them as well! Embossing tool? I gotta check this out!
Thanks! It’s called an embossing and stylus set, and they look like this: http://twitpic.com/4qdys2
They’re basically just 5 sizes of dotting tools. I found them in the stenciling aisle at Michael’s, and they cost less than $5. 🙂
Love the egg-nails! Very eggceptional. (Sorry, had to do it.)
