An attempt at a OPI Spotted, water marble. Cute Polish is where I got my tutorial from.

31 Day Challenge: Inspired by Yourself

Now this, hands down was the hardest challenge for me. What do I inspire? No idea.

Ended up going with black magnetic polish with a circular magnet and a black rhinestoned nail ring.

Magnet is from MUA

31 Day Challenge: Inspired by Childhood

During my childhood I lived pretty much in the middle of a field. 90% of the time surrounded by sheep and occasionally by cows. When the sheep were lambs they would escape from the fields as the fences weren't lamb proof, sometimes I would come out of my bedroom and find lambs in the hallway. Which is where the inspiration came from today:

Polishes Used:
Barry M - Blueberry Ice Cream
