Random Crystal Placements

Today I am shattered after 4 hours of driving. Trearddur Bay and back in a day.

So it was just trying some of the closest colours to hand, and throwing some crystals together.

On the left TGB Khaki base, two premade gems – the circley thing at the top and the bow underneath. I added some golden shadow gems to the clear spaces to finish it off.

I’ve used Crystal Totalis to fix these gems as the fixing gel wasn’t holding them.

Next to this is the same Khaki base. This time I opted to try the design I have been practicing a lot recently, but in teeny tiny format. It looked a bit bare, so added a cuff of small gems too. The blinking caviar bead at the top of the centre piece moved!

For the third nail, I decided to get the TGB BIAB Mistletoe out – I love this shade. I applied it super thinly and this is 3 coats. This was just a mess about – I am trying to find perfect fitting gems to go inside the silver rings. Did ok on the bottom one, and then totally picked the wrong (smaller) size for the top one.

Instead of caviar beads I used silver rivets – think in this design caviar beads would be better.

Lastly I used Frozen BIAB from TGB for the base, this time I kept it shiny and just stuck two pre-made gems on it. A star with black crystal centres, and a wand with clear crystal centre.

Just too shattered!
