Stained glass

Good evening guys! I'd like to show you my stained glass mani. It was really supposed to be circles, I wanted to do Nailnerd's blue balls but then I got a little playful with the black outlines and so the end result. My two-way nail art pen is also to blame as it spurts out polish all of a sudden. I badly want a new one!

My pinky nails got the thickest outlines! However, I'm still happy with the end result. It looks nice from afar. Looks really wonky up close. So please, don't zoom :)

I tried it in 5 different colors - Purple, Blue, Green, Yellow and Pink so I can have different options. After a while, I decided for the green group to stay.

I will post the full nails with green stained glass design right after I publish this. Keep posted!

What I did during the brownout. . .

As many of you may know, the typhoon Pedring caused brownouts over many cities in the Philippines. It was frustrating as I cannot do anything - no TV, no internet. But I gotta be thankful because we weren't affected by floods. Ondoy was enough for us.

To pass off time, I decided to do a rainbow mani. Very timely. As the song goes, "...there's a rainbow always after the rain." I love the rainbow! Here it is,

I know the lines were uneven. It was hard doing this kind of mani with no sufficient light! Pictures were taken under artificial light, after the brownout of course. I altered the colors on some fingers. Only the thumb and the ring finger got the full rainbow colors. I thought it would look too much to put all the rainbow in every nail.

To finish off the look, I drew a black umbrella on my thumb.

Hope you had a great weekend! Goodnight!
