So pretty! I wish I could find nice nail pens to do decorations here, but the only ones I can find have these awkward tips that make everything look fug.

My pen tips aren't amazing, but I use a nail stick to sharpen things up.

So pretty... *.* I feel like crying since I can never do anything to my nails because I can't wear have anything on my nails (plus I should keep them relatively short) because of work... T___T;

Oooh, PRETTY. What kind of sponge do you use? One of those little makeup ones, or? And I love the bronze; I may need to acquire some myself.

I used a makeup sponge, but I think something a little coarser might actually create a better pattern. It's what I had on hand, but I plan to pick up some new supplies soon.

Whooooooa, pretty. O_O *stares* And you have pretty hands too! It takes skillful people to add small details to such a small canvas.

Unfortunately, I am not such a person. Don't ask me how I managed to get nail polish on my elbow because to this day, I don't know either...

Thank you.

It takes practice. I've been doing stuff like this since junior high (although I took a break for part of high school and most of college).
