Bestie Twin Nails with @Nails_by_Charlie

Hey y'all! So @Nails_by_Charlie and I decided that we wanted to do Bestie Twin Nails together! I have been trying to find someone around the same "skill level" as I am, and willing to do some nails together for quite some time. But that was really difficult. Either everyone I came across was either way outta my league, or wasn't quite there yet. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't judge anyone on their "skill level", I just didn't want someone outta my league, because maybe they would want to do a really difficult design that I wouldn't be able to complete, and be proud of. Or...I would be the one choosing a design that someone who isn't quite up to my "skill level" yet, that may not be in their comfort zone. So trying to find someone with the same "skill level" was a challenge in itself! lmao.

 So you can imagine how excited I was when Charlie asked if I wanted to do them with her! Which, by the way, she is an amazing person! Be sure to follow her on Instagram, and check out her blog! So anywho, we exchanged a few ideas, and decided on a SUPER cute design by @Saraxbeara...and I think we did a pretty damn good job! See for yourself!


And here is our inspiration...


See! Pretty damn good, right!? lol.

I had so much fun doing these cute designs. I really hope to do more Bestie Twin Nails in the future! So if you're interested in joining me, please don't hesitate to contact me! I swear I don't bite! ;P

1, 2, Freddy's Coming For You...

So, as y'all know, a few weeks ago I created some Freddy Krueger/A Nightmare On Elm Street nail art for a friend who had requested them. She figured, if I could do it on my nails, I could do it to hers. So I did, I went on to paint my nails, and try to perfect this Freddy mani for her, and this is what I came up with...


Which, I fell in love with! I definitely could've done wayyy better on my Elm St. sign, but I had been working on them for so long, that I just gave up. haha. I knew I could do better on it if I was going to paint them again. Which I did for Brittney last Thursday, and this is how they turned out...


So cute! Her signs were definitely better than my original, and I was proud! She wanted these nails really badly, because not only is she a big fan of Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger), she was going to Comic Con in Dallas that upcoming Sunday to actually MEET Robert Englund IN PERSON! She wanted to show him her nails! HOW COOL, RIGHT!? haha. I honestly didn't think too too much about it, though. I figured she wouldn't be the only one with some cool themed nails, right? (Oh, and I also made her a small nail polish ring with Freddy's sweater stripes on it, which you will see pictured when you keep scrolling through.)

Well, she went to Comic Con, and a few hours later I see that I got tagged by her on FB. I figured it was some pics, or something, so I go, and look, and find this...

I'm assuming she meant *show* lol

I was all like, "WWWHHHAAATTT!?!?!?!?!?" I won't lie...I freaked out quite a bit! It was unbelievable! Robert Englund liked my nail art so much, he wanted a fan to return to show his wife!? If that isn't big news, I don't know what is!!!!!!

EVEN BETTER...Brittney is sooo awesome, she got pictures for me!!!!!!!!


Yes, I tagged the picture out the ass, but I didn't want someone else to try to steal my amazing news! lol. Paranoid much? But yea, so here Brittney is showing off her nails, and that nail polish ring I was telling you about earlier(; And how cool is it that Heather Langenkamp TOOK A PICTURE of MY nail art!? I've been scouring the internet, and social media to see if she has uploaded it. I wish so badly that I could've been there. I want to know what they would've said to me about my art. But since I couldn't be there, Brittney was awesome enough to document this huge accomplishment for me! I am so thankful!!!!!!

All in All

Paint on! Seriously! Do NOT get discouraged if you think you're "not good enough". I've had PLENTY of nail fails the past year I've been doing my nails, and it's only proved to make me a better artist. I've got an entire page dedicated to My Nail Fails to try to help motivate y'all, and to show you that you CAN get better! You just gotta practice loves! Practice makes progress!!!

All you have to do is make sure you are following me on instagram (@w0nderlandbby), and leave a comment on this post stating your instagram user name, and that's it! I WILL be checking if you are following me, so there's no use in lying. If you lie, you will be blocked as well (I don't like liars).

The third entry is to recreate one of my mani's. ANY of the ones listed here. Make sure to tag me, and #w0nderlandbbysgiveaway on your recreation, or it will not count! And we definitely wouldn't want that to happen!
