LOOK AWAY, BETTY. LOOK AWAY.

Fair warning, Dearies...this post is about nail wraps and not about stitching. (Betty hates it when I talk about things other than stitching, so I decided to give her a heads up.)

So here's my first set of Lily & Fox nail wraps after ten days wear:

(They still looked great, but I was bored and trying not to eat my face off, so decided to change them.)

First I removed the old set:

I dipped each nail for just a few seconds and used the little scrubby thing inside, and they came off like a dream in a matter of about ten seconds.

Then I put the new set called "Adore Me" on. For my middle finger and ring finger I needed to stretch the wrap a bit to make sure it covered completely, but this was very easy to do and I'm happy with the result:

I confess that the "accent nail" look is new to me, but in the spirit of getting out of my ruts, we're going with it.

To "seal" everything, I used this top coat, and I made sure to cover the edges:

And then, finally, I used this oil on my cuticles like I do every night like clockwork:

I'm not a spokesperson for any of these companies, but I do love their products! The very best part of this for me is that the nail wraps are very inexpensive compared to a salon manicure (or even a bottle of good polish for a diy). Three dollars is an indulgence I can afford every once in a while, and I love that I can look down at something cheery!

Back to stitching tomorrow, I promise!
