gold plastic bag method.

Ok so Finally I promised you a design today and you're going to get one!  :)  There are really only two things polish-wise that I REALLY can't wait for this fall.  One is of course Halloween so I can do some Halloween designs, and the other is definitely OPI's Skyfall collection coming this fall!!!

 So today's design is inspired by the star of the collection... "Man With the Golden Gun" Which is a gorgeous 18 karat gold leaf top coat.  Today's manicure is inspired by the swatch show below:

 

Here is my attempt at a similar effect however I forgot my purple is way darker then it looks in the bottle, and especially darker in a picture.

Supplies:

-A dark purple, a color even lighter than the one I used would be best because for the most part mine looks black. (I used OPI's "Siberian Nights")

-A gold (I used OPI's "Symphony in Gold")

-A base and top coat.

-And a some cling wrap (Amount doesn't really matter I used the full width of it but just a few inches long.

1. Apply a base coat and allow to dry.

2. Paint all of your nails the purple color.  Before moving on be sure that this is completely dry.

3. Roll up your cling wrap.  Be sure that it's "even" on top so you don't only get one line of gold.  (If anyone has suggestions on better wording please comment and I'd be glad to change It I just don't really know how to word it.)

4. With a polish brush that isn't to heavy with the gold polish paint on the top of the cling wrap.
5. While the gold is still wet dab the cling wrap on your nails but be sure to test it on paper first so you don't just cover up all of your base color.  Also be gentle so that again you don't cover your base color completely.

6.  Finish with a top coat to seal in the color.

Nail Polish :)

Today I have a poem for you written by a friend of the blog, Taylor Wilhoit.  :)  Oh and P.S.  I'm planning on posting a design later today!!!  :)

Nail Polish

By: Taylor Wilhoit

I eat cherries and as I chew,

I paint my nails neon blue.

Or red, or pink, or green, too.

I never paint my nails with glue

That's just ew.

When I was home with the flu

I painted my nails midnight blue,

Or like the zebra from the zoo.

Whenever I make stew,

Or wash my hair with shampoo,

I see my nails and shout woo-hoo!

Want to know my favorite color, you?

It's purple.

Oh and P.S.  I'm planning on posting a design later today!!!  :)
