Good morning all! I hope you are looking forward to the day. 🙂 I actually love Mondays, if I haven’t told you already – Sundays and Mondays are usually the two days off a week that my husband has. 🙂 So Mondays make me happy!
I have for you today a gathering of my favorite nail art throughout the year. This was really hard for me to narrow down! I hope you’ll forgive the pictures – I’m just realizing how far my pictures, and my manicures have come in just 8 months. Because there are so many pictures (believe me, I narrowed this down quite a bit!), I’ve included a jump break. Click through to see all the manis!
One of my first nail art manicures that’s a favorite is this one from May. I literally could not stop staring at this pretty mani!
Next is this Marimekko inspired manicure, for sure a stunner:
This post wouldn’t be complete without one of my most favorite “fails”:
This following manicure was the first one that got really good response from instagram and tumblr, and in my opinion, it’s not hard to see why:
This next manicure, I loved so much, I even put it on my son’s nails! (He asked!)
This manicure is one that I really pushed myself on…I did it on both hands!
Next up is a manicure that had a lot of personal meaning for me:
Totally switching gears, this next manicure was my absolute favorite Halloween manicure:
Next up is my very first watermarble – how could I not include it on this list?!
This next manicure is one that I simply adored for its lightness and femininity:
Peanuts inspired nail art was big on my blog this year; from Halloween, to Thanksgiving, and Christmas.
I ventured out into some tattoo inspired nail art with this Sailor Jerry design:
Lastly, I was inspired by Calvin & Hobbes snowmen:
Phew! What a year it’s been! I hope you’ve enjoyed this look back on 2013. 🙂 Which one of these is your favorite, or is your favorite not here? Let me know in the comments. I am so excited for 2014, and can’t wait to have more nail art fun! Until the next time,
These were all great! Nice fave nail art for 2013~
Thanks so much Lisa! 🙂
Have to say, my favorite of all of them is still your C&H Snowmen. Too funny and very true to the inspiration.
Thank you Ali! They still make me giggle when I look at them. 🙂
I love the first floral mani but I think my favorite is the Calvin & Hobbes Snowmen.
Thank you Cindi, I heart those little snowmen too! 🙂
Your skill has definitely grown this year! I love these kinds of posts, it’s so fun to remember manis from yesteryear (well, this year… just… yester-month). xoxo, here’s to another year of more great nail art!
haha, it is fun to remember manis gone by! 🙂 I had a blast looking through old photos, even if I was cringing a bit at the quality of them. LOL
lol, I just made a 2013 retrospective, too! I know what you mean!!
I LOVE Mondays too!! I LOVE these! You can definitely see the improvement from the first mani to the last one!
Thanks so much Autumn! You are seriously so encouraging! 😀
I love your favorite fail. I kept wanting to scream: WIIILLLLLSSSSOOOOONNNN!
ROFL!!!! You totally crack me up!
I love your nail art skills! The Halloween one is my fave!
Thank you so much! 🙂 I love those little Halloween dudes. 🙂
