Advent Challenge

While surfing the internet I found this really cool challenge by Happy Hands Nail Polish, which can be found here Advent.  I'm a little late to the game but I think it would be a really great project to try.

Holiday Lights

One of my favorite holiday traditions is driving around and looking at Christmas lights.  We (meaning my husband and I) moved from an apartment complex to a small town nearby.  Boy do they know how to do Christmas lights!  We have a neighbor nearby who went all out and decorated every inch of their yard, from trees to the roof...they did it right.  These nails remind me of a dark winter night and all of the bright lights around our quaint little town.

I used two coats of OPI Baby It's Coal Outside and two coats of OPI Rainbow  Connection.

Glitter and Smarties. Glarties.

I have been nomming on Smarties and painting my nails with Orly "Sunglasses At Night" which was sent to me by one of my YouTube besties ArcadiaNailArt cos she's cool and safe and mental and completely awesome.

I love to arrange things in rainbow order. Especially Smarties.

I was feeling a bit nostalgic. Remember when Smarties had plastic different coloured lids with letters on? I used to collect them and write rainbow words. I didn't always have every letter though so they'd say things like "hip hup hop" or "dip dap dop"...

I always ended up with lots of p's and d's. Or are they both the same? H was quite popular too...

And then the B@$T@7D$ changed them and now they have paper lids. No more fun games where you whack the empty tube on the table and see what you hit when the lid shoots off. They still have the plastic lids on the big tubes, like the one I'm holding here, but it's just not the same. My lid was orange today and had a picture of a raccoon on it. I can't spell anything with that!

DAMN YOU, SMARTIES!!

I still love you though, because you're rainbowy and sweet. And you DO always have the answer. You're who I turn to in my hour of need.
Thank you, Smarties.
Your lids will always be missed, but your sugary goodness will still always be nommed.


   
Thank you. Please enjoy Smarties excessively and irresponsibly this Christmas.
