Haul and picket fence nails?(photo heavy)

I went to work out at the gym this morning, then headed down to cosmo prof on the other side of the city to check on a couple things. First I'll show you guys the stuff I picked up, plus a couple things I got from ebay in the past week, I have a few more things arriving but they haven't yet.

Here are a few nail art items I picked up. They were each 2.99$ the crushed shells were regular 3.50$







Everyone has been raving about seche vite and I just hadn't gotten around to trying it or even really checking if my supply stores had it, I managed to spot it when I was looking for cuticle oil and grabbed it.


Finally got some cuticle oil since I believe my last one is gone.


This I'm actually considering returning, it was 15$ and they usually have good priced little china glaze boxes like this but I pay 3.25$ a bottle for china glaze and with this box set I'm paying 3.25$ plus 2$ for the box/beach ball, plus I already have one of the colors. I may return it or try to sell them, I'm not sure yet.
The colors are: Sour Apple, Bad Kitty, Dreamsicle, and Blue Hawaiian


Here are 3 china glazes I picked up, I've been wanting to two from Up and Away collection and just got around to picking them up, the gold is from the Wizard of Ooh Ahz Returns collection




I needed some new tweezers for picking up some nail art stuff like rhinestones and whatnot, my old ones the tip broke off on one side so they basically became useless. I bought these off of ebay.


I couldn't find my nail art polishes that I bought when I was in nail school over 3 years ago, and so I found this set on ebay and bought them. Well I found this bag of a lot of my nail art stuff from school when I was going through my closet so I'll probably sell these to a friend since I have all these colors already.


I really don;t know what I was thinking when I did this, I was trying to do flower petals, and it ended up looking more like a picket fence. Oh well.


Oh after I did the nail art I decided to go ahead and give seche vite a try and wow, it dried faster and smoother than I thought possible. The top coat I got addicted to in school is starting to bubble on me, and I bought some Daby at the premier show in Orlando in June but I'm hording it because unless I want to pay 13$ for a bottle I have to wait until next summer to get more for only 5.33 a bottle.

In the bag I found most of my nail art stuff, I also managed to find my 3d nail art brush, and while I don't like having acrylic nails on I absolutely adore doing 3d nail art, its so much fun. So once my new colored acrylic gets here I'll probably start playing with that more, at the moment I just have clear/pink/white plus a shimmer blue and red but I can't have much fun with 2 colors. Here is a picture I have from when I was in school, we had to do a project with nail art and all but 2 of mine were 3d.

Lemon, banana, orange, cherry, pear

plum, grapes, pineapple, strawberry, green apple

Hope everyone has a happy 4th!
