How is your year going so far? Got that retail area spruced up and plans for making the restroom seem like a part of the salon instead of a convenient store stop? Have you seen anything interesting with your nail eyes yet this year?
My husband and I decided to get our son tickets to Monster Jam for Christmas and the event was this past Friday night. You know that my nail eyes were feeling like a kid at a candy shop with all the cool custom graphics and colors on the trucks. The Hot Wheels truck grabbed my attention the most often and even after leaving I could not get it off my mind. I tend not to be happy until I interpret an idea the best I can on nails whether it be mine or someone else’s. This leads us to a new video in which I am going to show you how to make your own decals!
Making custom decals means custom pricing and it also helps eliminate the need to have less cool art on your backwards hand because by creating a decal it can be the same on both hands. I have used Shellac in the video since that is something I work with often, however this can be and has been done by other people using other mediums so be sure to have a go at it with whatever you use!
