The Digit-al Dozen Does Fairy Tales: Bookshelf


I am super excited to announce my joining The Digit-al Dozen group this week! I've followed many of the group members for years, and am close friends with one, so when Debbie asked me to join her awesome little nail art cult, I was ecstatic to accept!

So from here on out, I'll be posting five days out of the month with a different theme; we post the second full week of each month. My first DD theme is a challenging but fun one: fairy tales!

I went more general with my mani today.

To begin this week of fairy tales, step over to the bookcase of wonderlands, and select your favorite novel.



I tried to write bits of titles on the books, but it was pretty difficult. I'll give you a few, see if you can find them! On one book, I managed to get "White" for Snow White, and "Oz" on another. Then a book laid open on it's spine as a thick French tip on my thumb.






I used a ton of polishes in this mani!
Back of the shelf: Zoya Louise
Wooden shelves and wood lines: Zoya Dea, Flynn, and China Glaze Mahogany Magic
Red: Sally Hansen Rapid Red
Pink: OPI Kiss Me I'm Brazilian
Yellow: Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow (original formula)
Orange: Sally Hansen Orange Impulse
Mint: Sally Hansen Mint Sorbet
Teal: Sally Hansen Mint Sprint
Light Blue: Deborah Lippmann On the Beach
Dark Blue: Sinful Colors Endless Blue
Purple: Wet'n'Wild On a Trip
Sparkly thumb base: Formula X Magma sponged and topped with Sally Hansen Snow Globe, plus large, loose, iridescent hex glitters.
