I have been building a new account online to be creative and share my projects that are now expanding past just nails and baking! I started digital art and share my cross stitch hobby on my new Instagram account which you can find here: The Polished Pepper. I am also working on a new website which will connect with my new account and I look forward to sharing this growth with you! Hoping everyon ..read more

As many people know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. In honour of this cause I did some pink themes Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbon nail art. This was very easy to do and could totally be done freehand. Freehand isn’t my strong suit and I happen to have the perfect stamping plate. Konad stamping plate m63 was just right for the ribbon design. I haven’t been online very much lately because I was dealing with a difficult loss of a close friend. Understandably I hadn’t felt very into nail art or any of my fun hobbies. This month’s focus on Breast Cancer Awareness finally seemed like a w ..read more

I recently found and ordered this amazing set of flavoured K-Cups! This is the Two Rivers Variety Pack and it has 40 different K-Cups. I got it on Amazon for about $27 which was a great deal, and I am so excited about this purchase! The Two Rivers Variety Pack is a mystery box full of unique K-Cups. The box itself is adorable with little coffee and flavour designs all over. It has a pop out portion on the bottom that allows the K-Cups to come out, sort of like a gumball machine. One of the things I was most excited about was the fact that I would get a new, different flavour each day without ..read more

Good morning friends! Today I have this super cute easy DIY Donut nail art to show you! This was so simple to do and didn’t take any fancy tools or skills. I have very little freehand talent (mostly I use nail stamps) so if I can do this, anyone can! Super Easy DIY Donut Nail Art Super Easy DIY Donut Nail Art The only tool I used was a dotting tool but you don’t even need that.

Good morning! As some of you may recall I have been participating in some Instagram nail art challenges, and one of the ones I completed during the month of May was an animal print theme! Each Friday for the whole month there was a different animal, so today I complied all 4 easy animal print nail art designs that I did! This challenge was started by Dimension Nails. The 4 weeks of animal themes were Leopard, Zebra, Giraffe, and Tiger. For all of these designs I used stamping plates because my freehand skills are not the best. I’m going to cover the supplies used very briefly for all 4 animal ..read more
