So....I wanted to try a splatter mani. If you haven't seen this yet, the lovely Jen over at The PolishAholic has a tutorial
HERE, and has done several beautiful ones.
Here's the polishes I chose, as I wanted to do kind of a retro one.

| L to R: WnW Toss Me A LIFESAVERS, Essie Sand Tropez, Essie, Coat Azure, Essie Little Brown Dress, and Color Club Uptown Dash. |
I showed you
Color Club Uptown Dash yesterday, that's what I used as my base color. I need to remind myself to get some smaller straws and attempt this again.
2 fingers with Essie Sand Tropez (forgot to take a pic until I started on my next color). of course I taped around my nails.
Now enters Essie Little Brown Dress.
I should've really stopped here, but didn't. I wanted to follow through with my original idea.........even if it turned out to be a fail.
Essie Coat Azure.....actually I think this looks fine. THIS is where I really should've stopped.
Lastly, WnW Toss Me A LIFESAVERS
Here's what it looked like after I removed the tape. A HOT MESS!!! I didn't even bother doing any clean-up because I removed this right after I took the pics.
Next time I'll definitely try with smaller straws.
TOODLES Y'ALL!!!
