Happy 4th of July! Watermelon Wednesday

Happy 4th of July to all of my wonderful American ladies! Such a beautiful country we live in despite all the problems. Today I've got sort of an unconventional 4th of July mani for you all.



I'm in a Birthday Swap group on Facebook with some amazing, crazy ladies and we were talking and decided to do watermelon manis for the holiday and I couldn't wait to try it. Watermelon definitely reminds me of hot Florida summers, late nights, fireworks and the holidays so what a perfect idea. I have great memories sitting around my backyard watching the fireworks with a picnic and my family. A lot of you told me during my last giveaway that you'd like to see more nail art, and we aim to please so here goes!


For this mani, I used Floam by Nail-Venturous (which was a HUGE lemming of mine until I got my hands on it), China Glaze Love's A Beach and Nina Ultra Pro Black.



I pained Love's a Beach as a base on my index and ring finger and two coats of Floam on my middle and pinky. As the "rind", two light coats of Floam and little black seeds :) I'm still practicing so don't be to critical!

Here are the other ladies doing Watermelon Wednesday with me!
365 Days Of Color
Peace Love Lacquer
Jilltastic Nail Design
Munchy's Nails
Manicurator
Tall Girl In Heels With Pretty Painted Nails
DIY Polish

That's all for tonight ladies! I hope you all have a fun and SAFE holiday! I'm heading downtown to the fireworks show with an old friend!
