Grandma's Wallpaper

Tuesday night might just become my new favorite night of television! Hart of Dixie, New Girl, Raising Hope, The Mindy Project... I'll stop there, because if I listed all of the shows I actually watch on Tuesdays you'd think I was crazy.

As you saw in my last post, I recently bought a bunch of new polish. And I'm determined to use it all! I kinda  threw this one together, and it came out really well! I think it looks like some vintage wallpaper you'd see in your grandma's house. Or at least my grandma's house!


I started off with a base coat of OPI Did You 'Ear About Van Gogh?




Then I added some OPI Thanks A Windmillion polka dots.



Finally I stamped on some lovely China Glaze First Mate flowers!






I also tried a matte topcoat. Usually I hate them, but I feel like it goes well with this!

Bonus Post! Crazy Matte Mani

Yesterday I got too lazy to finish the rainbow nails on my right hand, so I did.. this.. instead. It might be hard to tell, but I actually used a matte top coat. I've never really been a fan of this, but I'm giving it another try. This one came out ok. Putting it over glitter kinda makes the glitter look crazier. Hard to tell from the pics.
