    FIMO NAIL ART CANES - CHANEL & MY MELODY


    I got these in the mail today and am really excited to put them to use!!! (^_^)

    Thanks to Ms. Stephanie over at Makeup Babble, she directed me to these nail canes and ignited my nail art needs.  LOL  Take a look at her recent nail art!  It's gorg!

    I am lookin' into getting a UV lamp and other nail gel necessities so I can start doin' my nails from home.  What's funny is that when I was back home this past October, I visited the lady that use to do my nails and she kept telling me that she would help me purchase everything I would need so I could do it myself.  She didn't want me spendin' dough in Japan because she knew it was ridiculously expensive!  Good lookin' out right?  Too bad I didn't have time to link up with her before I came back.  Boo!  Anyway, time to get started up again so be on the lookout for the next coming weeks.

    Here are the goods!

    I ordered them on Dec. 1st and received them about two weeks later... from China.  LOL

    Stored in lil round containers that I use to use for pigments!


    Total FAIL on the slicin' & dicin'!  Whatta waste!  LOL


    Stay tuned!

    XOXO, ~L

    Mama, you got 'em! I still haven't gotten a response from that etsy seller :( But I ordered something for you so hopefully it's at home waiting for me and when I get back home I can mail it out to you. I'm in Santa Monica right now looking out at the pier from my hotel room...I'm in love.

    Binosusume on YouTube has the best nail tutorials I think! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66qa8XS2Pag and there should be all her nail videos on the right.

    I loooove making my own UV nails, my hobby! Super time consuming, but it's fun! Art in a whole new way yenno?

    Good luck!

    excuse the stupid question im about to ask but what are these nail stick things? are u supposed be put on ur nail as decoration? lol. theyre so cute i thought they were erasers. hahahahaa

    L said...

    @emimonster: HAHAHA! And rightfully so! I died last year when I first came to JP! Summer and Winter was a shock! It rains a lot here too! Boo!

    Not a stupid question... ha! These things are fairly new. I just learned of them recently as well! You set them on your nail for deco! I have a picture up via Twitpic right now but my nails are so short/damaged from gettin' acrylics when I was in CA. I'll be doin' a post on it shortly though! :)

    To all the ladies inquiring about these fimo canes, the seller no longer has them. As soon as I put up this post and had email inquiries, the seller ran out of them.

    Sorry ladies!
