Well, I didn't get as many Halloween manicures done as I wanted to this year, but I have today's and another to show you today. The one from last week was done using the Color Club Cast a Spell set of Halloween minis along with some Halloween Art Club rhinestones for Halloween, both of which Color Club sent to me.
The mini set has a black, orange, holo, and dark purple shimmer (the same purple as last year, I think). The really cool thing it has is some fun decals. I was just playing around with it and did an orange manicure with a black accent nail, then applied the decals to the orange nails and a line of orange rhinestones to the accent nail. This is what I came up with.

For today, I did a simple manicure, but it's the scariest one for me. I'll even tell you the little story of why it's the scariest (if you don't care, feel free to skip to the paragraph after the story). It's spider-related, so if they care you skip it.
Six or seven years ago, I lived in new house on the edge of town, in a neighborhood that was being developed in what used to be corn fields. Now, I've always been terrified of spiders, and when the construction guys would dig a new lot out of this corn field, the spiders and bugs were everywhere. So gross and scary... After a few months of panicking at the sight of a spider, I decided I'd be all Zen and not kill them anymore, just ignore them and go about my business in order to get over my fear of them. Good plan, right? I soon saw two spider webs in the corner of the bedroom a few feet from my side of the bed, and for a few days was all pleased with myself for ignoring them. Pleased, that is, until I woke up one morning to zillions of tiny spider dots all over two walls of the room and squished all over the bed. The two spiders had mated and the eggs had hatched overnight. I have never again felt compelled to peacefully coexist with an arachnid, and am more freaked out than ever about spiders.
Back to the manicure! In honor of my scary spider story, I decided to do a spider in a web on my left ring nail. For the base color, I decided on Chanel Rouge Noir - it's a good dried blood color, and sufficiently Halloween-y on long nails. For the web and spider, I used stamping plate BM13, white for the web and black for the spider, both Konad Special Polish. To make my spider even scarier, I added a red dot (Zoya Lisa) to its back to make it a Black Widow.

I really like this manicure because it's not overtly a novelty, the accent nail is more like a little surprise if someone looks closely. And I couldn't handle more than one spider on my nails, lest they become friends and make zillions of tiny spider dots.
So, that's the update on Halloween manicures and your scary Halloween story to start out the day. I hope you have a great day today, and until next time, love and nail polish to you!
