Last night was my first go at this fabulous nail treatment. Above, the results. It is purposefully blurryish because I made lots of little mistakes and don’t want you looking at my nails too closely. Looking forward to trying again in a week or so. Still pleased with them overall.
The book pictured is The Collected Stories of Deborah Eisenberg, which is fucking fantastic.
As for the nails: I dug through my recycling to find this article from the NYT about BEA to use as a transfer, thinking it would be nice to see book-related words winking up at me from my fingers—but they transfer on backwards, so it actually doesn’t matter what you pick. Oh well!
