Foxes and Nails? Perfect.

One of the many reasons I love blogging, is that you can discover such wonderful new things through your favourite writers.

I have totally stolen this from Zoe, but I am so absolutely in love with these bad boys that there was no wayyy I wasn’t going to share them with you :)


Nail Stickers! Firstly, they’re FOXES; they already have my immediate, undivided attention.  I really need to own everything that has anything to do with a fox, so if you wanna throw some foxy stuff my way, be my guest ;)

Although I love beauty, when it comes to nails I completely freak out. I can just about paint them, but when it comes to nail art, or anything that isn’t just a standard easy polish, I SUCK. So I was a little apprehensive to try nail stickers, but what’s the worst that could go wrong eh?
Luckily for me, nothing! it was so easy :D *insert fist pumps here*.

Step 1: Paint your nails. Make sure that you use a light colour for the nails that will have the stickers on them; they may not show up if the colour is too dark.

Step 2: Cut out your sticker. You don’t have to be too precise; I just cut mine into a small square.

Step 3: Peel the sticker away from the backing. The sticker itself is very fine, so if you have long nails, great; if not perhaps use some tweezers. Be careful that the sticker doesn’t roll up; if it gets stuck together it will be really difficult to unstick it!

Step 4: Place the sticker on your nail. Again, be cautious on application, once it’s stuck down, it’s not going anywhere! Tweezers come in handy here too.

Step 5: Apply a top coat, to keep the sticker firmly in place. I applied an extra coat the day after too.

And voila:


These babies are designed by the lovely Jan Christie; and cost a teeny £1.80. The images are based on their own photo's to avoid any copyright issues; & I believe you can send in your own images to these two ladies to get your own individual sticker! That's pretty cool, non? I’m so impressed with the quality & ease of using this product. Plus, they popped in a few extras for me to try FOC, how lovely is that? Including, a cat, a horse & a pug!



What do you think? Are you a fan of nail stickers? Did I do an okay job? :)

    I'm usually crap at all this nail art palaver but these ones seem too irresistible to resist! They look so cute and quirky on the nail and I like the background colour you have used! I'd love to try the black cat ones being an award winning spinster and all!

    video to make your point. You clearly know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could be giving us

    Awesome blog! Do you have any helpful hints for aspiring writers?
    I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
    Would you advise starting with a free platform like Wordpress or
