Hello again!
I was thinking my life would slow down a bit after I got one group presentation out of the way, but that was a joke! I'm still busy as ever and it seems like I can never catch up on my sleep! The good news is that I'm getting the word out about my Storenvy store, so hopefully I can start making some sales!
I also have a giveaway going on right now on my Avon Facebook page which you are all more than welcome to join and enter! Also, feel free to join my Facebook group for my creations!
Now that I'm done self promoting, I'll get to the core of this post, which is this manicure. I want to point out that I'm trying a bit of a new posting style and I would love to hear your feedback on it!
I actually just took this manicure off today and I was really sad to do so because it was so adorable!

What you need:
- Base Coat (Avon Ridge Filling Base Coat)
- Black Polish (Wet N' Wild Black Creme)
- Nude Polish (Avon Gel Finish Barely There)
- Dark Pink Polish (Sally Hansen Unnamed)
- Light Pink Polish (Avon Nailwear Pro Cotton Candy*)
- Green Polish (Art Deco)
- Gelous (Optional)
- Top Coat (Seche Vite)
- Small brush/dotting tool (I got mine from avon*)
*Products marked have unfortunately been discontinued
As always, first paint on your base coat to protect your nails.
After your base coat dries, apply your nude polish. I only needed one coat of this polish.
Once that dries, paint your stripes and dots, alternating nails. I will tell you that my brush was too thick in my opinion and I would have preferred thinner lines.
Once those dry, take your dotting tool and put quite a bit of your hot pink polish on it. Use that polish to create 3 large dots on your nail. You may have to apply more polish to the dotting tool, because you want to make sure that there is a blob of polish on your nail. Immediately after creating your dots, place s drop of the light pink polish in the center of each dot and swirl it around with your brush. You may have to do this a couple of times to get the perfect swirl of color.
Then, take your green polish and using the detailing brush, add some small leaves to the flowers. There's no exact number as to how many I use, I just did what looked good to me!
Once this dried, I applied a coat of Gelous so that it would last longer. This is totally optional!
Finally, apply your top coat and clean up your nail beds!
I would love to see your recreations at: #countryclassdiy
Let me know what you think!
