For my Holiday Treat manicure, I was going to do Russian Tea Cakes. My mom made these buttery, walnutty, pale green balls of deliciousness for years, and so I thought a reminiscent manicure made a lot of sense. I had layered all of these polishes, using shimmers, nutty little brown glitters, pale green sheers, and voila! The worlds most boring manicure.
I had to improvise; my manicure looked practically white, booooo-ring! So I busted out my handy striping brush and got to candy-caneing my nails!
I like how the uneven strokes on my nails match the uneven stripes in the cane; let's call it "on purpose", shall we?

Next, holiday song. My maternal grandfathter liked Jimmy Durante a lot, so every time I hear his version of Frosty the Snowman (you can hear it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2joERYGHEo) I think of him, and of my family, which is an association I really enjoy. So, with my trusty stamper and Kleancolor Metallic Navy over Pretty n' Polished Sno'mans Land, I have Frosty nails!
