Zoya Vienna, December Color of the Month

Press Sample 

Well, I guess Zoya is now sending me their colors of the month and I am not mad at that. I cannot figure out definitively if these are only available for the month of the release or until sold out. I noticed older ones are not on the site but that November's color is still available so if you did not grab that one, you can now grab both! I just got an email that you only have a few days left to get this, so here ya go!

Starbucks Cup Christmas Nail Art

Press Sample 

Well, I am so behind on posting. hoops! Every year, Starbucks releases, a fun pattern holiday cup. This year they did a motif with hot pink. Every year, I collect the cups in hopes of doing nail art, and sort of never get around to doing it.  So I was determined to do it this year.

Hanukkah Ornaments Nail Art

 Press Sample

Hi all! This is my final Hanukkah manicure for 2023 and I had fun this year! Tonight is the seventh night of Chanukah so that means tomorrow is the last night. I wore festive Hanukkah sweaters this entire week at work with matching festive earrings. It is important to me that I represent my holiday and religion and show that we are a strong group of people. I hope you enjoyed my nail art over this last week.

Abstract Hanukkah Swirls Nail Art

Press Sample

Like my plaid look, I like to do a few non-literal festive looks. I do these for most holidays. Sometimes I like a color scheme rather than intricate art. Last year, I did a simple Halloween manicure with orange swirls and I loved it so much, I decided to do it in Hanukkah colors!

Hanukkah Dreidels

Press Sample

Ok well I guess I do a dreidel look every year. I have to! When I put on KBShimmer Freeze the Day, I knew I wanted to do a Hanukkah look with it since it was this gorgeous bright blue. And I love how gold and blue look together so this was a winning combination! Tonight is the second night of Chanukah so I wanted to get in this fun look as we go into the weekend.

Hanukkah Nail Art Compilation

 Contains Press Samples

Hanukkah nail art is always pretty difficult because there are not as many symbols as there are for other holidays, such as Christmas. And the symbols that do exist, are super intricate! Most nail art online shows Star of Davids, but that is a symbol of Judaism, not Hanukkah. After so many years of blogging, I decided to compile some of my favorites and I might actually recreate some! Since Hanukkah (Chanukah) starts tomorrow night, this might kick you into gear to change your nails!
