You gals have some serious nail art going on. I am a bit too old for that.
I usually paint my with a pale color and do a top coat. I have to keep my nails trimmed very short or I can't play the guitar.I don't go to the salons as I am too scared of getting a nail fungus.

I used to have the fake nails but found out I am allergic to the glue. My nails are starting to grow out better and I have a cheap polish on them. Wet and Wild Shine in a burgandy color.

That's better than my first attempt. If you pull the outside edges in towards the middle, you can get cool flower like effects, like this:

If you check out good ol' google images, you can see some really great colors to mix. There are so many I want to try. I love, love, love doing it. As messy it is, looks so pretty. Wait till you master it and they come out PERFECT and with a clear coat to give it some shine, its awesome.

thank you! Those are pretty neat! I am thinking I'm going to try a flowery design next time and use some whites and pinks! I need someone elses nails to try out too! LOL!
I tried it again last night using a light turquoisey color, white, and a bronze color. I like them, but they dont seem as springy!

Oooh! I love how the baby fingernail came out! I always have a favorite nail by the end of it lol.
Some more pale colors would be perfect. Light pinks, blues, purples and of course white.

I really like doing black with one alternate color as well. For halloween I had an awesome black and purple dress, so I did black and purple marbling, it turned out awesome. Got a lot of compliments.

Here is my experiment with the black crackle polish by China Glaze




My favorite combos are when it's over a nude polish so it looks like leopard print, and when it's over dark blue polish.

I have long nails - well not claws, but a good 1/4 inch beyond the ends of my fingers. And I am so very right handed that I make a total mess out of using my left hand to paint my right, soooo.......

I found this great nail salon a couple miles from my house and they will paint my nails for $5 for fingers and $7 for toes! I can wear polish about 2 weeks and so for $10 a month plus $2 in tips I can have great looking nails!

I'm trying to take some pics, but not having much success with the cell phone, so I'll get the camera out.

Currently I have purple grape nails with glitter! Love it!
