So many projects, old and new!

Welcome!

There are so many things I have been wanting to catalog here long before I even decided to go ahead and create this blog. It's difficult to pick a jumping-off point but one has to start somewhere.

I will start with my nail polish collection. I just added 8 polishes to it on Friday. I had purchased two new colors at Sally's and happened to walk into Payless for the first time in months and was shocked to find out that for one day only, all of their polishes were FIFTY FREAKIN' CENTS! I only bought six, shockingly enough. A lot of what they had, I already had something similar.

I am pretty proud of my collection. I haven't counted lately, but I must have 50 or so colors, around 50 stamping plates, a zillion microbeads and gemstones, etc etc etc. All my polishes are stored in a Goodwill Rescue CD rack. The shelves are made of marble tiles that I had cut to fit. As much as I love this piece, I'm thinking about upsizing to a media rack. When I first made this, you could see all the polishes on each shelf.

Without further ado... my nail collection... so far... lol

Every 6 days, I do my nails. It has been an idea of mine to keep track of my designs for quite a while and so many designs have been lost. With that said, I am going to *try* to post every design right here.
