11 Random things about me!

 

1. I love horses.  My favorite breed is Arabians.

2. My favorite color is red, and it’s so weird but that is the color I have the least of in nail polish.

3. I have a niece that is 4 and she always has to have animal print on her nails when she comes to my house. 

4. I have to sleep with a fan on.  Not really to keep cool but to circulate air.

5. I wish I could have rainbow hair like Melanie Dawn Harter (Wisely-Chosen on Flickr).

6. I have a giant container of fluffy pens on my desk and my clients play with them all the time.

7.  I am a Taurus and can be extremely stubborn at times.

8.  I majored in Anthropology in school because I love people and culture. 

9.  I am currently in the process of trying to learn Italian. (Any Italian speaking nail art fans out there…. I’d love some advice).

10. I have a ton of jewelry but really only wear two rings religiously.

11.  I absolutely love looking at nail art blogs maybe even more than writing my own blog.

 

Shelby’s questions:
 

1. What's your favorite guilty pleasure? I’ve been watching a lot of Vampire Diaries lately… usually when my man is gone because he thinks it’s dumb. 

2. Which store do you visit weekly? Hmmm… I don’t really go out to shop all that often but I do like to visit Sally’s Beauty a lot. 

3. Favorite nail polish brand? I think my favorite brand might be China Glaze.  They are really easy for me to find in my area and I do love the colors.

5. What polish are you currently wearing? I am currently wearing China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy with Piper Polish Spectraflair topcoat.  All the holo and neon goodness!

6. How do you store your polishes? My nail polishes are currently stored in large plastic containers on the floor, though when I do my nails I usually take over the table.

7. What inspired you to not only create your blog, but keep up with it? I guess I started my blog by seeing everyone else’s blogs.  I absolutely loved nail art blogs and wanted to become a part of that lovely group.  I wish I could post every day or even every other day but with everything going on I just try to keep us as best as I can.

8. Who is the last person you called on your cell phone? The last person I called or texted was my man Jeff.  J

9. What's your favorite hobby, besides nail polish? I love to draw and I love to read,  though I rarely have time for hobbies any more.
