Mixed print for Easter and Spring

Two things. First I'm totally not ready for Easter. Seriously I ran to the store at midnight last night just to put baskets together for the kids. Today we're swinging by the store to pick up the desert we're supposed to bring to the family get together. Woefully unprepared.

So yesterday, in between all the hustle and bustle, I was attempting roses. I keep seeing these super cute mixed print manicures featuring roses. I, um, painting flower-like things? Basically I need a little more practice on the technique. However, I am at least facing this unprepared day with a manicure. I'm sure you can attest to how that can be a huge help.

The second thing. I never wear yellow. So I'm a little bit proud I stepped outside the box and wore it, because I love the color combination! The four colors I used are Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow, Sally Hansen Green Tea (the mint), Zoya Cynthia (the blackened teal), and Essie Mojito Madness for the leaves.

Happy Easter and Spring everyone!

Happy Easter!

It's been a slow month in terms of blogging but a fast and furious month in terms of life. So here's my skittles Easter mani. For some reason skittle manicures have just been popping out to me lately. It's like my new accent nail. Maybe it appeals to my, "I have so many ideas! Oh look! I have so many fingers!" mentality. That or I get distracted easily. Which could be the very case. Hey look glitter....anywho Happy Easter to everyone!

A spotted egg, an egg with stripes, a mottled egg, a fuzzy chick, and an egg with stenciling. I loved seeing all the natural eggs and the sophisticated eggs on Pinterest and in flipping back through my Martha Stewart magazine from last year.

I mean look at those! I love the idea of eggs - the new life, new hope, new beginnings. No matter what you believe or what your walk is that is something that just rings true. It's a beautiful message that I take to heart every year.

So be blessed today in your celebrations and in making lasting memories with your family. Happy Easter!
