Makers Dozen's theme for October is Horror Movies. That's perfect for October, since it's Halloween! My favorite!

If you didn't know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. I know, there's tons of awareness months now, but Breast Cancer Awareness has been around my whole life! To commemorate this cause, Stella Chroma made a gorgeous trio AND she will be donating a portion to mammograms for women (see below). So not only will you purchase gorgeous polish, but you'll help people who can't afford mammograms.

So I totally wrote up this post for this past Monday and then noticed that it never published. When I went into blogger, it was totally gone! Le sigh. But I need to share this awesome mani with you! Again, I had so many people making comments on these! I only took them off to do my Bender galaxy mani, so I wore these for over a week (and then I chopped my nails off!). Neon forever.

Futurama Bender in Space Nail Art

Press Sample

Happy Birthday to my darling! Well, his birthday was this past Saturday and we had an excellent weeked! I always share what I wear for his birthday and I usually theme it. I've done so many manicures in his "honor"--sometimes he asks me to do a ceratin color or a theme. Well he loves The Simpsons  and Futurama. Since I've done many Simpsons manicures, I wanted to do a Bender nail art! We recently watched the episode "G-dfellas" and I loved the gorgeous scene of Bender in space and that was my inspo! I also made him a cake with Bender on it this year too!
