just wondering what peoples opinions on nail designs are...either crystals or airbrush or even freehand designs...do u guys like them or not? why or why not? what designs do YOU think are classy?
i have seen a girl with reallllly long acrylic nails and had "i love brian" painted on every single nail..thats a bit much in my opinion but i think if done right then like a french manicure with a tiny silver snowflake looks really pretty..what do u think?
also whats the ugliest and prettiest designs u have seen...sorry im just curious cuz i have seen some ugly hoochie nails and i dont understand what would possess a girl to get "f*ck you" painted on her nails (oh yeah..i have seen it before!!)
Answer
It truly depends on your personal style, but you know all that XD
Yes these nails can come off as tacky, like gold teeth, BUT they are in a sense a form of art. In Japan they have events and competitions with fake nails and designs, to the point that MEN even get them! (yes, with the designs and nail piercings to boot!) They can get in the way, break off, look awkward, and in THAT case they are pretty tacky and bad. These days, whats beautiful and trendy is also functional.... and those long fake nails are as far from functional as they can get! But if you got medium length nails or shorter with those snow flake designs, that sounds adorable! I personally like simple designs like that, or a french manicure, but I only like having a nail decal on the ring fingers. Thats just me :)

Do i recycle or trash pencils?
A Dawg
My pencils are like the size of my pinky nail, and pretty much are just the metal and used up eraser.

Oh, don't trash them yet ! Check out these amazing crafts you can make with these pencil stubs :
You could use them to make interesting & innovative crafts !
eg. picture frames. Glue them along the edges in 3 or more rows & add your artwork as a picture or any photograph, etc.
http://www.diydork.com/colored-pencil-picture-frame/ -- this one has pencils cut into exact lengths & glued at right angles to each edge. A simpler & relatively less formal way would be to glue the pencils [varying lengths] parallel to the edges.
Or like this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWNi_gwggXc
Yet another way to make a frame : http://www.123rf.com/photo_10503702_frame-made-of-pencils-with-multi-color-border-featuring-mini-pencils-showing-the-concept-of-educatio.html
http://pinterest.com/pin/108016091032806485/ -- simple but lovely jewelry by cutting the pencils & stringing them.
I love the Beads that have been cut from these pencils ! You can use these to create a kind of collage artwork/composition.
http://www.worldsstrangest.com/neatorama/pencil-shoes/ -- Amazing ! Shoes/footwear made from color pencils.
http://www.countryliving.com/cm/countryliving/images/straw-vase-de-57819865.jpg -- easy to make vase. Instead of vase, you can use the container to keep your pens, pencils, brushes, etc. too.
You can also make Coasters & Table Mats or Runner in a similar fashion.
You can create beautiful artwork with color pencil shavings too - check these out : http://www.google.co.in/search?q=pencil+shavings+art&hl=en&client=opera&hs=Kfd&rls=en&channel=suggest&prmd=imvns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=jqeAT9OyEYrSrQf8t7zvBQ&ved=0CCkQsAQ&biw=800&bih=489 You can use these to make wall hangings/pictures or greeting cards, bookmarks, etc. to gift to friends & family. You can also use the colorful shavings to adorn various items in/around your house. You can decorate gift boxes with the same.
You can actually make stuff with the pencils - it is after all wood. eg. you can make a cardboard frame/box [or use any cartons] & line up the pencils all over & glue. Add a hinge & decorate the interior [line it with velvet or fabric] & you have a beautiful box in which one can store trinkets, etc.
If you need to send out invitations, etc., you can use the longer pencils at 2 opposite ends of a paper or fabric to create a scroll that can be rolled in & out !

Invent any new game. eg. throwing a fistful on some board & then trying to toss them out of some line with some implement. Create rules with friends & play :)
Enjoy :-)
