My Nail Kit


This is the current organization of my nail stuff. I find this way practical and organized. It is very easy to just grab my kit when I want to do my nails. I got the fabric bin from either Big Lots or Target. Lets take a look at what I have in my nail kit.

Picture Link



 The first item is Shany Cosmetic's 48  Mini Bottle Nail Art Kit. I purchased this on Amazon but it is available online at Shany Cosmetics. It is $12 on sale (originally $14) on the online Shany store and it happens to be $13.95 on Amazon. I'm in love with this nail art kit. It has many different types of decals to decorate your nails. TIP: To apply the decals; place them on the nails when the top coat is still wet then when first coat is dry seal the decal with another top coat.


Here I have a glass jar full of nail files, nail clippers, and other tools. Keeping these item in this jar help from all my nail clippers and files from getting lost of the bottom of my bin. If you don't have a glass jar try using a plastic cup or a clean can.

Here are my nail dotting tools! I love the color of these...don't you?! I purchased these on Amazon for only $3.95. I have yet to use these but I'm excited to.

I have a small container for when I want to do water marbling, two different cuticle lotions, a little pumice stone with a brush on the other side (I use the brush when I smooth my nails or file them), and I have a couple buffer files. I do not know where these items were purchase sense I've had them for a few years now.

Here I have a baggie full of nail stripping stickers that I purchased on Amazon for $1.75. The other baggie has nail stickers. I'm not sure where the nail stickers came from.


Here is a container full of little gems for your nails. I purchased these on Amazon for $2.10. Some of the gems were mixed when I received this but only a few. Also it says it came with 1200 gems which I read the reviews before hand and people said there were not that many. I wasn't a huge deal for me so I purchased it. I love the size of these gems and I does come with a lot of gems as you can see. TIP: I apply these gems the same way as I do with the Shany decals. Place the gem on a wet top coat then once first coat is dry seal the gem in with another coat of top coat.
Here is my nail brush set. I purchased this set on Amazon for $2.82.



I keep some Q-tips in a small baggie in my kit so that I can clean up mistakes.


Although I don't have these in my kit I have them near by. The CVS brand 100% acetone nail polish remover is my favorite nail polish. It takes off your nail polish so fast! Some disappointments would be the price and that acetone is not good for your nails.

That is all that is in my kit. Please feel free to use this as inspiration for your own! All items were purchased by myself. All opinions are my own.

Fall/Halloween Indoor Decor

Oh it is my favorite time of year! The leaves are beautiful colors, the air has that crisp fire place smell, tea is a hundred times better. The warmth and comfort of sweaters and scarfs just add to the enjoyment. But one of the things I REALLY enjoy doing during the fall is decorating! The decorations for fall are so cute it's hard not to buy everything in store! With that said I'm going to show you how I decorated my room for this time of year.


My mom really enjoys this time of year as well so she likes to pick things up. This leave decoration was from Family Dollar. I looped it in and around my mirror. The mirror already has some leave and flower detailing but I love how this decoration made the mirror look.




As you can see in my mirror in the other photo the bookcase on the other side of the room has spiderweb. I got a bag at CVS which was 2/$5. One bag goes a longgg way. I placed the spiderweb in a way so that it didn't block the things I used on a daily bases. Such as my fish, Howard, who is in the top left corner. Can tell I really enjoy reading?



I also went to The Dollar Tree and pick this little knickknack. I though it was perfect! I was only $1 so I couldn't resist. It surprisingly great quality. It well crafted and pretty heavy. 


Along with the grave knickknack I also picked up this adorable snow globe. It has a cat! I can't turn down anything with a cat. The detail on the bottom is very nice. It has spiders and little graves around it. Again this is superb quality for The Dollar Tree!

You can't go wrong with the beloved pumpkin. This has been around since I was really young. I have been putting this in my room for the last couple of year because my mom has her favorite knickknacks. Since this has been around for a long time I'm not sure where it from. 
Last but not least I have these two little pumpkins on a book shelf near my desk. These also have been around for awhile so I don't know where they are from. You can find many decorations around this time of year and I wouldn't be surprised if you found similar things. I find the The Dollar Tree is not only inexpensive but some decorations are great quality.
