Blast From The Past: reusing a post from my other blog to launch the new blog.

This post was originally posted around Christmas 2012. Since then I have tried only one more Pinterest nail design. I did not take a picture of the outcome, but I rocked the design for a few days. Of course for this blog I will be adding pictures of more nail designs from my board the Whimsy Claw. 

Here is the original post with minor changes:
 So, recently I removed the acrylic nails to give my nail-bed some air and a little TLC. This also allowed to save some money for Christmas gifts or gift. The upkeep on acrylic nails is pricey! Anyways, in the spirit of given I decided to use the money on others instead of myself, see I'm nice.

The thing is I still really like to have fun flashy nails, so I decided to reconnect with my inner artist and paint my nails myself. I could have been really creative and make up a design, but that is what I have Pinterest for.  Thankfully, I have been preparing for such an event as this by pinning every amazing nail picture I ran across.

So after searching through the pins on my board is called the Whimsy Claw, you are welcome to go look at the rest of my pins, I decided to try something I had seen on Pinterest before. I was unable to locate the exact pin at the time and decided that I would wing it. I remembered the picture showed a red and white polka-dot combo and that was all I could remember. Here is the pin, I really should have searched a little harder...

Beautiful Pinterest Photo (hand models know how to rock the camera) 

...and here is the final result.

 My lousy attempt

 I guess my memory is a little off. Nevertheless, I rocked this for 2 days before I completely destroyed the paint job when I washed the dishes.

Well there is my first pin, hope everyone enjoyed it. I will have more to come, so stay tuned.
