When we opened Dogwood a few months ago I realized my hands might be center of attention – ahem- unless maybe I wear a very low cleavage-enhancing top 😉 BUT mostly, my hands are pouring drinks and delivering food and gesticulating wildly as I speak to customers and friends… and I want them to look …
Eyeshadow French Tips with DIY glitter nail polish
The glitter nail polish I made last week has recently become a favorite. Yeah, I say that with each manicure I do, but this one has stayed on like nobody’s business, with very little chipping. I’m sure it has something to do with the fact that I used a base coat, but who knows. About …
