The Lacquer Files: Leafs

Hi everyone! I had a nail break couple of days ago and decided to file them all down. I was pretty sad about it but then I remembered I had the Bundle Monster plates lying around and apparently the design are super small. So why not test it with my super short nails?!

OPI Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow Suede stamped with China Glaze Cherish and Bundle Monster Plate 19 finished with Essence Nail Art Glitter Mix

Well, they are small. Really small. I don't think they would have fit on my long nails. The Bundle Monster plates have really cute designs and they are a nice addition for the ones who love to play around with Konad and Fauxnad. I started with the leafs pattern on BM plate 19.

My base colour is OPI Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow Suede and I've stamped with China Glaze Cherish. Stamping with the Khromes and Romantiques is great. I like them better than the Konad stamping polishes. After that I put on some flowers from the Essence nail art glitter mix. These are sooo cute! They're blue but they change to lavender when you wiggle your fingers - and of course when you're moving your hand.

I've played a lot with the Bundle Monsters plates today, so you'll be seeing a crapload of these designs flying by, probably so much that I'll still post designs over two weeks from now. Sorry! :o)

I love those plates and have the same design on my toes right now. I see what you mean about your small nails and I love how you centered the pattern. Im going to have to try this now, you've inspired me.

Ohh it still looks cute! I still like it short :)

Have you tried the essence SOS nails repair line? It works really well! Right now I have three (three!!) patched nails and last time I patched them, it easily held longer than two weeks.

The glue by itself holds the pieces together very well but they also have pads that you use together with the glue to also keep the nail stronger (I only use the pads for index finger nail).

Thanks Thifa! I've tried the SOS nails repair line and other stuff to wrap my tips and all that jazz but I think it just isn't me. I can't stand breaks and my first response is to take it all off haha, without going having trouble of patching 'em up. I'm too clumsy for stuff like that. ;)

Aaaaw, this mani looks very cute! I love BM plates but they do make me angry sometimes cause they are so small... Such a shame. :D But I love the designs. And I like your pretty nubbuns! <3
