♥ S.H. 'Radish' & New Franken ♥

Pictured; 2 coats on my toes of my newest franken in the square bottle.... and a bottle of China Glaze 'Spontaneous', just for comparison....

By Wednesday evening I will be finished my sewing / hemming marathon, and I am super-excited to have time to get all my newest creations and posts in here. Today's toes are of a franken I made, along with many others LAST week. On Saturday July 18, I whipped up 9 new frankens using nail polish I had purchased around the end of April and Early may..... HERE is the post I made about them. at the moment the photos of the process on how I "created" this pretty matte purple are lost in a file of a zillion photos, so I will add it to this post sometime in the future. The origional polish, Sally Hansen 'Radish', is posted below this expertly photo shopped toe pic's. Using 'Radish' as the base of my Franken, I have used; Pigment = ( ancient Caboodle body shimmer dust ), a Sally Hansen Plain white polish, and a little bit of Sally Hansen 'Peanut Shell'.

Ahhhh.... I Love purple, I was delighted to find four of these bottles of Sally Hansen 'Radish' at a lovely little pharmacy in my neighborhood for only $1.25 each. Finding these polish's was awesome. I have created some lovely frankens, The 'Radish' polish is sooooooooo rich, it looks almost black but it is a very deep, deep purple. The SUPER-DUPER-AWESOME-SQUARE-BOTTLES are from those 'Party-Toez' from the olden days..... I found a bunch of these on sale. in previous post I have whined about finding and ordering square bottles with a normal brush, so far, all I can find are empty bottles like this but with the nail art stripe brush. These bottles hold 8 ml of polish, which I estimate is enough for.......wait, I gotta look up my own research on that one.

Any-hoo..... I must get back to my sewing machine, I am packing all my sewing goodies up on Wednesday at 3:00 p.m. until it is time for Fall/Winter sewing. While I have been extremely busy I do read everyone's blog, however I do not have time to comment as much as I would like to. i do want to say though, that I am sooooooo grateful that I found nail blogs, and make-up blogs, after a quick business trip, I had like, 3 days of blogs to catch up with and it took me 3.5 hours to read everything....... That is the kind of entertainment I like. So thank you soooooooooo much for making those posts peoples!!!!!!!!
