NOTD: Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween guys! Although we don't celebrate Halloween in Turkey, I did a Halloween manicure today =) I hope you like it despite my limited artistic ability =)
The most important part of this manicure is the thumb. When it was just an idea, I thought it would be easy, but turns out it's not! =D I thought of giving up a while after I started arranging the beads, but finally, I managed to put together something decent. I used orange beads for the Jack-O-Lantern face, and a green flower for the stem =) I thought of painting the stem in green, but then I got lazy =D


Thumb detail:



The other nails from pinky to index: Konad Special Polish in Silver and spider web from BM13 over black, bats from BM13 in black over Flor Mar Neon #04, a ghost in black & white creme over Rimmel London Blue My Mind, and finally China Glaze Spellbound.
Have a wonderful Halloween! =)

Cadılar Bayramı kutlu olsun =) Türkiye'de kutlamıyoruz ama, bence çok sevimli bir gün Cadılar Bayramı. Bir Harry Potter fanatiği olarak büyücüler ve cadıları çok seviyorum =) Bu güne uygun bir manikür yaptım, umarım kısıtlı sanatsal yeteneğime rağmen hoşunuza gider =D
En çok başparmağıma yaptığım desen uğraştırdı beni. Turuncu boncuklarla Cadılar Bayramı'nın simgesi olan balkabağı yapmayı düşünmüştüm, ama yaparken gerçekten uğraştım ve zorlandım, hiç kolay olmadı. Ama sonunda çabalarım sonuç verdi ve ortaya bir balkabağı çıktı =) Boncuklar ve tepesindeki yaprak yerine geçen yeşil çiçek Feryal Bijuteri'den.
Diğer tırnaklarımdaki desenler, soldan sağa: Siyah oje üzerine BM13 diskindeki örümcek ağı (konad'ın gümüş rengi ojesi ile), BM13 diskindeki yarasalar (Flor Mar Neon #04 üzerine siyah ile), Rimmel Blue My Mind üzerine beyaz ve siyah oje ile hayalet, son olarak da China Glaze Spellbound simli oje.
Eğer kutluyorsanız, eğlenceli bir Cadılar Bayramı geçirmenizi diliyorum =)

  4. I'm guessing you are a patient person, arranging the beads to look like a jack-o-lantern! :) It looks super awesome!

  9. Thank you so much, @LuvMyLacquer and @Dhini =))))
    @Katrina haha, don't tell me! =D I had to retrace their way with black polish, because the base was long dry! and they bleed when I try to seal them with topcoat... =/ When I finished, I immediately took a picture, because it was likely to fall apart any moment =)

Ben tek basina suruyorum yani bir rengin ustune degil, ve diger renklerin yanina cok yakisiyor =) turkiye'de icinde boyle buyuk simler olan ojeler yok ama bulursan turuncu ve gumus renkli simli ojeler alip birbirine karistirabilirsin =)

  49. first of all, thank you so much everyone =) you make me feel so warm and fuzzy inside =)))
    @my leetle nails the thumb took me about 20 minutes, and the rest took another 20 minutes =)
    @rosein, altinda henuz kurumamis bir oje varken hafifce bastiriyorsun, o oturuyor... eger oje kuruduysa ben altina fircayla cok ince bir hat halinde ayni renk oje suruyorum, sonra bastirarak uzerine oturtuyorum. =) saglam olmasi icin uzerine cila da surebilirsin ama genellikle boyasi cikiyor oyle yapinca =/
