Unfortunately I am dealing with some personal family issues and my store will not be opening until they are resolved.

To name two issues, (1) my husband was in a motorcycle crash and has had surgery to put his leg back together. (2) my perfectly healthy 41 year old brother has had a heart attack and is recovering.

Right now, 100% of my focus is with my family and dealing with these and other issues that have happened. I am sorry if I am not returning messages but I just can't right now.

Sorry, Tracey

Fingerpaints Special Effects Polish

Oh my...this line is perfect for me because I love a great flakie polish and this collection includes FIVE of them.  I was able to pick up all five of the polishes at my local Sally's.  I have read around the internet that this polish line is hard to find or has been sold out in alot of places.  Glad I went when I did!!

Here are pieces I am working on for necklaces and key tags:  I knew these polishes would look fabulous in jewelry:

Twisted

My girl Krista (@headacheslayer on Twitter and craftyangel on etsy) gave me the tip to mix all 5 polishes together and look what happens:  a flakie orgasm!!!!



all 5 polishes mixed together

Although I love the Fingerpaints Special Effects polish line...my favorite flakie polish is still Cult Nails Unicorn Puke. :0)  just stunning!

"Nail polish jewelry from GingerKittyDesigns. I have a polish bottle-shaped necklace from her that I tend to wear to beauty shows, and at the International Beauty Expo in Long Beach, I saw Nail Files reality TV star Katie Cazorla wearing a GingerKitty bracelet that was actually created using Cazorla’s own The Painted Nail by Nubar polish line. (It’s real polish encased inside the jewelry.)"

I am a terrible blogger and have not posted in forever!  that is why I leave the blogging to you ladies and I just design jewelry instead.

I do have a few updates...so here it goes:

(1) My jewelry was worn by the gorgeous Katie Cazorla of the "Painted Nail" (and the great tv show the "Nail Files") to the Video Music Awards!  I still can not believe that three pieces of my jewelry (necklace, ring and bracelet) walked down the red carpet!  Big, huge, giant thank you to Katie for trusting me to design here some fabulous jewelry!

(2) Cult Nails Clairvoyant (formally known as Unicorn Puke) nail polish will be available on the website this weekend!  For those of you who have not seen this amazing polish....here is what it looks like in jewelry: 

(3) I am having a Black Friday Sale for all who follow me on Twitter or my blog :0)  Use the code FRIDAY for 25% off your entire order!

(4) I wanted to thank all of you who reached out to me when my husband was let go from his job this week.  It was a total shock and heartbreaking that his company let him go the week of Thanksgiving and a month before Christmas!  I was devastated when it happened but you were all amazing to reach out by phone, email and twitter to me.  I am truly blessed to have amazing friends and customers!  I am very thankful for all of you - thank you!

Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!!!!!!

OMG...Katie from the Painted Nail loves my nail polish jewelry!

While I was sitting at home reading everything I could about CosmoProf and tweeting with a few of the bloggers that were there experiencing it all (while being jealous and kicking myself for not going!)...I saw a tweet from Melissa @dailynail that she had just met Katie from @thepaintednail.  I responded that I loved Katie's show "The Nail Files" and her nail polishes looked fabulous and then the most amazing thing happened to me!


I started to receive some really fun tweets from Krystal at @Polish_Galore.   She was telling me that Katie Cazorla from the Painted Nail loved my jewelry.  They all all had dinner with Katie later that night and look what they sent me:

Yes...that is Katie (from the Nail Files) holding a keychain I made for Jen from @thepolishaholic.  Isn't Katie a knockout?   (I am already planning some amazing designs using The Painted Nail polish (Katie's own line of nail polish) that I am buying this week.)

The next day Katie was wonderful enough to this tweet and I almost feel off my chair!  Made my whole day (thank you Katie!)

A HUGE thank you goes out to Krystal from http://www.polishgalore.com/, Jen from http://www.thepolishaholic.com/ and Melissa from http://www.thedailynailblog.com/ and of course the amazing Katie Cazorla from http://thepaintednail.com
