"my nail beds suck..."

it's no secret that i like to do things for myself. i never want to ask for help, even when i know i really need it, and if i can figure out how to make something myself, i sure as heck won't buy it. so it's natural that i have always tried to do my own nails. i went about a year going to the salon regularly for fill-ins and pretty polish -- but then i moved out and had no money so i was back to doing it for myself. i used to paint my nails a lot in high school, then sort of fell out of it once i got to college. well now, for whatever reason, i have found my way back to colorful shades and teensy brushes. here are a few of my recent nail endeavors.

i have several ideas for more manis -- and it's fun because you can choose something for every occasion. i am by no means a professional, or even that good, but i don't think they're too bad to wear out in public. enjoy. :)
