NAIL ART ROUND-UP - Halloween 2017 + UPDATE

I've been incredibly slack about posting here but I've been a busy bee throughout the month of October doing lots of Halloween nail art. This is a quick round up of my manis - you can see more pics on my instagram using the #bilbypawshalloween17 

I've also decided to try and use this blog as more of a waffling / how-to set-up that is going to move a bit away from the image-based, "look here is this thing I did" format. That's what I'm using Instagram for. I know a lot of bloggers do this to try and monetise their blogs / get stats on hits but I'm not that. I will never be a swatcher who can do a quick turn around because of my health. 


I'd rather focus on getting something right, and I want to share the things I've been learning. So after this I'm going to attempt to do a series of 'Things I wish someone had told me...' with different polish-related topics, as well as do some run-downs of photo lighting set ups based on my experience as a photographer and the learning curve when intersected with nail photo-taking.

Anyway, for now, here are all the manis I did. I will make each image a clickable link to all the relevant details on IG because I hate repeating myself.
