Agatha Christie

Continuing the book trend for July, Agatha Christie book cover nails. These were based off the Harper Collins re-issues, I think the covers are really great. On the left hand from thumb to pinkie there is By The Pricking of my Thumbs, Five Little Pigs, The Regatta Mystery, Body in the Library, and Nemesis. On the right Taken at the Flood, The Hollow, Sleeping Murder, Sparkling Cyanide, and Miss Marple's Final Cases. Added a picture of the covers they were based on for comparison.

Lord of the Flies

 Book nails, May/June 2015: I recently decided that Lord of the Flies is probably one of my two book soul-mates (thanks to books-cupcakes photo challenge on tumblr) and decided to do nails to match. On the fingers a stylized conch shell, on the right thumb the pig head from the cover of my copy, and on the left thumb “Lord of the Flies” written in grey and red to mimic the colours on the pig. I actually used a small paint brush for these rather than the small brushes in nail art polish bottles and I think I got a lot more control out of it. Something I'll have to look into doing on a regular basis.

End of the Season

April 2015 - I did these at the end of April in support of Bayern and the Canadiens, unfortunately it was not to be and Bayern lost on aggregate in the Champions League while Montreal lost to Tampa in the playoffs.
