I know it’s a little early for Thanksgiving nails, but I had an idea and I wanted to implement it so I thought it best not to wait before I forget it. The result is what you see here. This time I also tried not speaking during the tutorial because when I looked over it later, I thought it was pretty self-explanatory. I then got my husband’s feedback on it, and he agreed so this is what I want with. If you would prefer a voice over or a written explanation for each step (something I was planning to try out as well), please let me know. I always really appreciate any feedback that you give me as I’m still trying to figure out this whole video thing. 🙂

I knew what decals I wanted to use for this manicure and I knew that I wanted to pair them with the coppery holographic polish because I liked the orange tones of it and I thought the sparkle was pretty festive. From there it was only a matter of figuring out what base to use for the decals and since I wanted them to stand out, white was the obvious choice for me. I also wanted to add just a little bit more sparkle on the nails with the decals so I used the gold foil for that purpose.
Oh, one more thing, I’m trying out a few different photo styles so the last 4 photos are simpler than I usually do. Could you let me know if you prefer photos where I’m holding things or the one ones where it’s just one hand with or without a background?
Thank you for reading/watching. Be you. Always.

October 6, 2019 at 8:48 pmThe Thanksgiving nails look beautiful! It is never too early to get inspiration. The copper color goes perfectly with the decals and I love the gold foil. And I think both types of photos look beautiful!
