Today's nails are inspired by the ever yummy candy canes. I have to admit, though, I prefer the cherry canes to the minty ones but really it's all good.
For today's nails I used a base of 2 coats of China Glaze Glistening Snow - this is so pretty with it's holographic glitters. One day I will learn to take a blurry photo so I can show that off. I then did freehand stripes using China Glaze Ruby Pumps for the red and a green glitter from Stripe Rite. I usually don't do stripes freehand but I just got a huge set of nail art brushes in the mail and wanted to put them to good use. On my stubby nail (which is growing!) I did stripes in rhinestones. I picked up a cool tool at Sally Beauty the other day that makes placing rhinestones so, so easy.
I love these nails and they really shine and sparkle in a blinding way in the right light. I just wish I would have been able to get my camera to pick it up.
