Pumpkins and spider webs..

Ok so I totally bombed on craft Thursday this week... :( I promise I will never let this happen again ;). Instead of doing a home craft which I was beating myself up about, I decided to do a nail design. I wanted to stay with the Halloween theme so this is why I chose the nail art. Every home craft I wanted to do I couldn't find the supplies in time. And even this I was late on, but I'm posting so who cares!!!

Any who I did spider web nails with two girly pumpkins!!! I think they came out so cute so here goes... To start this is what you will need.

A base coat, orange nail polish, black nail polish, a top coat, toothpicks,and a piece of paper or something to dot the black nail polish.
I used a pointy toothpick
and on the other side I cut it with the nail clippers to be round.
I applied my base coat, and then two coats of orange nail polish.
on the thumb and ring finger I drew two triangles and a mouth with the pointy part of the toothpick..
Then I filled it all in with the round part..
on the rest of my finger nails I drew lines expanding from a point in the corner..
I also did this with the pointy part of the toothpick, if you have those stripe nail polishes with the thinner brushes this will be a lot easier...
Then I drew hoops connecting all the lines.
cover with top coat and here you go.. the finished product :)
I added flowers on the pumpkins.. which is why I called them "girly pumpkins"

Be sure to check back every Thursday to see what type of fun crafty stuff we are up too. We are also hoping to add more days and themes... I'm thinking recipes!!!
