I'm not dead yet!!

Just working like a busy little bee.  I should have some fun updates on SuperSpoon (hey, hey supernatural sets) and of course, some swatches.  I'm waiting on a few orders to show up, but I do have some others that I've been working on.

That being said, there will be little to see of me until the 23 of the month. I am currently working on my California's teacher credential and I'm writing one of my assessments for the state. Needless to say, these are some big doings in education land. I hope to be done sooner than later and get back to some more swatching and SuperSpoon-ing!!

Holos and glitters and pigments and thermals.

I love all kinds of polish, but honestly, it's the uniqueness of indie polishes that makes them my favourite. I recently scored "Am I Ginger?" By LynB, and as a Whovian, I was stoked. Not only one of my favourite lines from Tennent, but also a gorgeous and vibrant holo. I couldn't wait to use it in a mani.
I decided to pair it with both Lucky 13 Lacquer's "Gallifrey Falls/ No More" and Leigon Lacquer's "I Fell for Fall". Leigon makes some of my favourite glitter toppers and I figured, you can always use another Who reference!!



Here's the full mani, notice the lovely thermal effect of Gallifrey!


The bottles!! I'm so smitten with these three.  They have a great application, very smooth and easy. I used H K Girl's top coat and had no shrinkageat all. They're wonderfully brilliant and stunning. Very sparkly as well.


I love the little TARDIS image; it really made the bottle for me. So cute and clever! This polish took 2 coats to be entirely opaque, and it's very, very vibrant. The photos don't do it justice, believe me! It has a great, smooth application and, my favourite part, doesn't glop off the brush, even from the top!!


Here's a close up of Lucky 13 " Gallifrey Falls/No More". This one took 3 coats, and they had be thickish, but it's a lovely chocolate that shifts to orange. Great homage to the Time Lord painting! It has a really nice subtle shimmer as well!






I don't just paint nails...

I make jewellrey, too! Stefanie, of Supernatural Lacquer fame, is a dear friend of mine and we've been plotting like evil villains. For you see, we've decided to combine our powers and talents to bring you some of the cutest accessory sets the world has ever seen! Will there be world domination? Possibly; they're pretty cute.
I'd like to introduce "SuperSpoon", the collaboration of Supernatural Lacquer and Teaspoon Studios! Each set comes with a limited edition, hand mixed polish and either a set of handmade earrings, or a handmade necklace! You're polish might have an adorable name, sure. But now, we offer matching accessories to go with it! We will also be offering custom orders for your occasion or fancy!

Here's a sneak peek!



Stay tuned for our upcoming, debut Valentine's set!!
