Very Cold Finger!!

Here I am again blogging at work -.- and I can't barely feel my fingers, how my poor iphone is picking up which letters I am hitting is beyhond me! 

My website is coming on nicely, I keep getting messages saying "this is your home page" "your nav bar" "I hate coding" "not sure how to code a shop" hehee love my guy! He's a star! 

I'm also thinking about glow polishes and more thermals. I keep longingly looking at my suppliers website and thinking which colours to buy next! It's really not helping being skint and Christmas coming up :/

Finally I would like you all to met Fraiser Danger Stephenson, my first nephew! It's my first time being an auntie and he is just so cute! Not sure about the middle name but that's my brother for you! 
I look forward to meeting you in January little man!

Over The Moon But Also Disappointed...

My hoodie arrived yesterday just in time for my fair!!!
I'm so so happy with it! Once my website has been coded I will get that printed on the bottom I think! 
Also... 
www.nailsinspirepolish.co.uk
It's not finished yet but is it in the process and going well, I think! 

Now for the disappoint meant, I went to my fair last night, I was very excited! Lauren came a long and was a massive help! But I hardly sold any :( my mum only sold one book so made a loss and a lady behind me didn't sell a thing! No body was seeming to buy anything, I just scraped a profit but only just less than a £1 I think :( 
But it was fun and I have another one on Thursday next week too so hopefully I will do better at that one! Here are some pictures from the event-

Lauren making some bags up to make the table look all pretty!

Lauren and myself with my table (never trust my mum with a iphone, the pictures come out fuzzy)

He Has His Uses :)

As of last night I am totally sold out of my Christmas thermals untill the 1st of December! Really rather proud of my little business, it's doing rather well! 

I am wanting to move my blog and my shop on to my own website, I got a step closer last night as my lovely boyfriend bought me my domain :D once set up it will be nailsinspirepolish .co .uk
He is currently coding it all for me so a massive thank you goes out to him! Thank you Liam!!! <3
(Honestly dating computer geeks has it's perks!)

Finally I getting very excited about my fair tomorrow night! My hoodie should be here and my best friend Lauren is coming along too!!
Can't wait!!!

Mixing, Riding and Forever Covered In Glitter!!

So this is how I sent Sunday morning: 


Mixing up a new batch of my thermals ready for my fair on Thursday night! All very exciting!! I also mixed up some more holo too coat which should be in my shop by 1st of December a long with thermals and my NI Polish Kits!!
I then spent the afternoon at the stables. I took Belle out on a hack with a young girl on her show pony. Belle was meant to be the nice calming influence on Pip but instead decided that the orange road blocks where far too scary and had to be snorted at and run away from -.- 

Also I have just approved the design for my hoodie and it should be here on Thursday too :D all very exciting!!!

Big Yawn and My Arm Hurts!

Yep I'm exhausted, sat on my lift chair at the pizza shop feeling like in about to drop off! Dragged myself out of bed today to go work at the stables and when I came to ride Belle she was a cow -.- 
She has these days where she will buck and bronc and be awful to ride and it makes me think she is too much for me and she would be better with somebody else, then the next day she is a super star and I love her again! Now my arm and shoulder hurt from hanging on for dear life do she didn't take off in the school! Damn mares!!

On a brighter note my Christmas collection was released on etsy last night!
Since the release I have had 4 orders which was 8 bottles in total!! So happy!!

I'm now looking though my current stocks on etsy to see what will be restocked and what want be, hmmm decisions...

Another Day At The Office (Kitchen Table)

Some people have swanky offices, with spiny black leather chairs. Some people have a small posh wooden cabin in their back gardens (glorified sheds if you ask me) but do I? Nope!

I have been sat at my kitchen table working this morning. Washing machine spinning in the background, occasional being jumped on by one of our 6 cats, sharing the big pine table with my mum who is emailing about her next print run for her latest book (link below please take a look) and listening to some rather random music on my itunes. But I started Nails Inspire on this table and that's where it shall be staying for the time being!

This mornings work has consisted of a new limited edition polish, Fallen Leaves.


















Fallen Leaves is a glitter topper with fine gold glitter and chunky red, garnet and rainbow shifting glitter! There is only 3 5ml bottles of this available in my shop and will be posted at 8pm tonight, get there quick as not to miss out!

Bye Inspires - Keep Dreaming!!

Glitter, bottles and more!!!


Nail Mail!!! I got very excited this morning when I got a box for over the sea! Suspension base and 2 glitters arrived at 7.40am (mum wasn't happy whoops) then later that morning more glitter, 24 bottles and my thermals all arrived!! I was in glitter over load!! It all came just as I was leaving to go to the stables and when I came home I have had to come straight to work :( no times to play!!! Will have to get up extra early in the morning! 
I am now just waiting on the glitter for 'My Hero!' and then all my outstanding orders will be here!! Exciting!!

Air Bubbles, Why Do You Hate Me??

This is how I spent my morning...bottling my jellies collections. Not only did I find out I didn't have enough bottles I also found out I HATE air bubbles!! 
You may think "perf air bubbles! What do they do?" They cause a great deal of stress that's what!! You can be merrily pouring your polish from the mix bottles into the little bottles and if there is an air bubbles it's blocks the neck of the bottle you get a back up and polish goes EVERYWHERE!! Not fun! 


I have also started to get the tags ready for the My Hero! polish and hope to be releasing that soon!!
