Halloween Photo Diary

I hope that you all had a great a safe Halloween last night. I took the day off from work to be able to go to a field trip to a farm/pumpkin patch with my son, my daughter had two Halloween parties, and we all went trick-or-treating as well. Just like two years ago, my kids decided to dress up as almost the same character: Spider-Man and Spider-Girl.






This month, I will be participating in a big blogging party called National Blog Posting Month with Blogher. This is my first time participating in this event. This is a exercise and challenge for bloggers to get them to post something everyday. There are different topic discussion and questions to blog about. Not that we necessarily have to do them but it also lets us do our own thing if we'd like. So I hope you'll check back on a daily basis to see my NaBloPoMo posts!

Blood Drip: Halloween Nails

Halloween is just around the corner and if you're not into makeup or getting dressed up, you can always decorate your nails accordingly. Nail art has been all the rage for awhile now. I don't remember when I started seeing it just about everywhere but I would say it has picked up within the last year or more. I've always been into nail art since I was a young teenager. I would go to the salon and get my nails done with a full set, air brush, or sometimes nail art. I would pick 3 colors and tell the stylist to do whatever design they wanted to create. But I stopped going to the salon because it was just damaging my nails.

For this nail art I used 5 things:

I used two coats of Black on Black. I used a toothpick to dot the Framed in Red and dragged the polish down to my tips and did sort of a french tip so that they looked like they were dripping down from the tips to the cuticles. 



FYI: I did this semi in the dark because I didn't want to wake up the kiddies. Gotta stop doing late night manis. 

I bet this would look great with white nails. I think I might try that sometime this month. 

Have you tried or are planning to try any Halloween nail art?
