If you have me on Facebook you have seen a few Halloween inspired nail designs from me. Last night I was trying to figure out what to do next when an idea struck, Zombie Pumpkin nails!! So far I only did two using the ZP logo and the Age mascot. I messed up on the logo by losing my "s" and "!" on the end, but all in all it turned out better than I expected.

If interested in how I did it I did a quick blog.

..Hmm no one would notice my toenails, would they? Shhh
You know if you painted your toenails for some reason you would have to show your feet, and all would see. :)

Last night my husband said I could paint circuit boards on his nails for Halloween.. :P

Absolutely fabulous! Perfect nails for carving. They turned out really well. If I had those i'd be constantly thrusting my fingers into peoples faces. "Look! Look at my Zombie Nails!" Maybe I shouldn't copy you, I might get sectioned.
I did a similar thing a good few years ago for going to a music festival. Your way of doing it is much better though, I just printed out tiny little "T" signs ( for T in the Park) and stuck them on my nails and painted over them with clear varnish. Nowhere near as good as yours.

Looks great. I have seen some amazing things done on fingernails, but this is probably the best so far.

It is subliminal messaging.
