Choosing a favorite was very difficult. Every day that I tried something new made me like something new. So, I decided to pick the Polka Dot manicure. This manicure made me realize that I actually had the manual dexterity to actually paint designs. It is what gave me the confidence to bette daring with my designs.
I decided to use the Lomasi Gel system. This manicure should last 2-3 weeks. That's great, so I can really focus on knitting now.
The colors used are Meditation, Humble, Pleasant, and Snort.
Enjoy!

I stamped white ghosts onto my dark nails, and added a skull. I think it's more cute than scary.
