Daisy Inspired Nails

I'm not sure what's wrong with me, but I feel so exhausted & tired after a pretty long, stressful week. I even went to bed shortly after midnight *gasps*. (Usually, I rarely sleep before 2 or 3 a.m. - I'm a real night owl :-D)


Anyways, due to my drowsiness I don't have any new make up looks for you, but I'd like to share a new nail art with you.


Last week (or maybe it's already 2 weeks ago?) I saw the first daisy of spring in our garden:




It inspired me to do the following nail art:








I used Illamasqua "Milf" as a base, sponged with Orly "Mint Mojito" (nearly invisible) & Nubar "Forest" & dotted the daisies with OPI "Alpine Snow" & Misa "Happy Happy".


BTW: I'll do a tutorial on how to sponge as soon as I can, but I really suck at things like that, so please bear with me ;-)


3 days ago, the first duck (a male :-D) visited the pond in our garden & comes every day since *yay* 
During mating season, ducks always like to visit our pond & I really love it! They are so cute :-) They know they'll always get something to eat: chicken feed & (unsalted!) peanuts, so they're eagerly waiting for that, too. Sometimes they even knock at our door to make sure we don't overlook them *lol*

  4. Ooh! Mandarin duck! How cute!

    And my dear, do you happen to work as a manicurist? Cos your designs are really really really lovely! I love the different shades of green in the background. The daisy there looks as if it’s a ring!

    I’m a night owl and recently i’ve been sleeping a little over midnight too. It’s extremely early by my standards.

    Es gibt doch sogar diese kleinen echten Mini-Blüten, die man in den Nagel einarbeitet. Blumen auf Nägeln find ich toll!

  46. The first daisies are popping up here, too, and they made me think of your nails :d I WANT THEM TOO. And I wouldn't mind doing rituals skyclad (naked} but there hasn't been a right time or place yet :p Maybe on Beltane, that's 30 April and the boy and I are planning on doing a 'greenwood marriage':d long ago people used to go into the woods and get a greenwood marriage that lasted a year and a day. Haha I'm a sucker for stuff like that! And I didn't knew Knut died :( He had such a sad life, his mother didn't want him and all... Aww, I truelly hope he's in a better place now.
    And tarot cards are indeed complicated, I still learn every day because every card can be interpret in such different ways :d I suck at math but when I really want to learn something I'll do everything to be good at it haha :d

    And I bet they have it in Germany! It's from the LIDL, that's a German shop, right?
    How come people don't like Tara McPherson? I showed it to my friends and they liked it :d Plus it's kind of meaningful, I mean all these girls with their hearts ripped out... Says so much about the relationships nowadays.

    It's cool how your boy has been to Japan! I bet he feels bad about the situation there :( He 'knew' the country. And aww the tattoo with your face on it!!!! So adorable. Mine wants to have tattoos too. He better has my face tattood too! :a

  47. oh well, you understand it completely right. But in my opinion, destiny is just a though, so if you believe in destiny is because you have an "ilusion" for living that destiny. I dont really know how to explain it hahaha
    Btw, you are amazing doing this things!
