Newspaper Nails

The post title says it all and the images show you how to get them! Super easy..I haven't added any text as I think the pictures are really easy to follow but......

You must:

• Make sure your nails are completely dry when attempting this. I waited a day for my nail varnish to dry before I tried this out.
• When holding the newspaper over your nails, use more than one layer. If you use one layer of newspaper the ink doesn't transfer so well and just turns soggy! 
• Hold your nail in the Surgical Spirit for at least 20 seconds. 
• After you've completed the look apply a top coat to lock the ink in.

Surgical Sprit and a newspaper.

Leave nails to soak in Surgical Spirit for 20 seconds

Cover nail in 2-3 layers of newspaper
(works better than using one sheet)

Add a top coat to lock in the print!

What do you think of these nails, have you tried them? I'm looking forward to experimenting with other colours! 

A Sucker for the Sales....

As much as I didn't want to spend any money on anything I didn't have to I've managed to pick up quite a few bits of jewellery this year! Not sure how or why but here is what I managed to pick up (on a second unintended shopping trip) from Topshop and Accessorize.

Bracelets Topshop were £18 now £4.50

Accessorize Nail Polish - £2
Necklace Topshop was £10 now £3.50 

Accesorize was £28 now £8.50

I've heard lots of good reviews about the Accessorize polishes so looking forward to testing that one out!

Anyone else been doing any unintended shopping recently, I know I'm not the only one!?
