Day 5: Garland and Day 6: Elves

Hi all!


I started out doing Day 5: Garland.  I thought this was going to be an easy one, but my color choice turned it into a major fail!  Ha! We all have our down days.  I used a base of Essie Case Study (an ugly pretty color) and Sinful Colors Call You Later as the winding garland.  I thought it would look like a garland running up the side of a brown house but... it just looks like swamp weeds. Woops! I'll share the pictures though, perhaps they can be a learning experience for somebody else who wants to try these colors together.

I can't bear to end the post on that note, so I'm going to add in Day 6: Elves to this post as well.  Now this... this is cute.  This is something I'm happy to wear on my hands. :)  My boyfriend thought this one was clever and called me a real artist.  

Colors - Ulta Limelight, Wet n Wild Red Red, Zoya Shay, NYC French White Tip, and Wet n Wild Black creme. 

I really wish blogger had a rotate picture function!!

Hope you're a little bit more in the Christmas spirit than you were five minutes ago :)
