What is even happening here? ➡️ Roll for Nail Polish is a series I’m doing for fun, inspired in part by elements of BrynneMarie’s ‘Color Me Monday’ and Adventures in Aardia’s ‘Roll for Sandwich: I love both series dearly, I need a hobby, and this helps take the decision-making out of doing my nails (which is a care task to help keep my fingers away from my teeth: if you don’t struggle with stuff like this, I love that for you and ask that you hold space for experiences outside of your own) 🥰

Thank you for being here!

Happy to be here, and looking forward to spending a special and chill day/weekend with my little family 💕 my “champagne birthday” was my 11th birthday in 2001, and that was kind of, like, not the priority on that particular day… So I’m cashing it in 25 years later!! Cheers to all that 11-year-old me couldn’t even fathom about what our life is today! I’ve learnt so much in the first 36 years, and I’m hoping to be blessed with at least 36 more!

I can’t believe we’re already on episode 10 of Roll for Nail Polish!! 🥳 thank you for being here, I’m having a great time and I hope you are too!

HOW TO TEABAG PATCH YOUR NAIL:
1. Cut out a small piece of teabag that will fit over the broken area
2. Gently file the area of the break
3. Apply a drop of nail glue to the area and allow to fully dry
4. File again
5. Glue & dry again
6. File again
7. Apply a drop of glue and your piece of teabag, and allow to fully dry

I’m pleased to report that the teabag patch actually does hold up if you let if FULLY dry! It doesn’t hold up against being actively picked off, which makes a world of sense. But it saved me when I needed saving!

Highly recommend!! I got tired of the little baggies the diamond art gems come in, and how they spill/need to be contained, so I did this 🤷‍♀️ zero
regrets, it’s been incredible!

Got the containers at Dollarama and used double-sided tape to attach tiny labels I made of each colour’s symbol and corresponding code-name haha. I think it took less than an hour once I got into a good flow!

It's worth the effort to get it right 🫶 and what a seasonally appropriate roll! Feelin’ like pumpkins, spice, and everything nice this week! 🥰

Make Dolly proud by making YOU proud! 💖

“I hope everyone gets a chance to be who and what they are" is a beautiful sentiment, and we can only become who and what we really are by doing what we know is right for us regardless of what everyone else is doing 🫶

(The full version of this video exists on my channel on the video app with the red play button logo, idk if they'd shush me for saying its name on this app haha) 🤣

For Mr Gorithm (hey al!!) - nails mani Monday nail inspo

Mistake? Or happy accident?? (both?) 😅 This week I went too far: story of my life!! But as always, we made it work 😎

Don’t write yourself off over a couple of small mistakes, or even over a few big ones. We’re all learning, doing our best, and worthy of patience as we do so.

Don’t forget to be kind to yourself and others today, even if you feel like you fcked something up 😅🫶
