Re: Olympic nails
Ok, I have given this quite a bit of thought and I will be awarding the following:
Marks out of five for the application
Marks out of five for use of Olympic colours
Marks out of ten for originality/creativity/sheer Olympic spirit.
You can enter as many times as you like throughout the fortnight, and the decision will be made August Bank Hol week (assuming I'm alive and not mental). If I'm mental, I propose Fée picks a different judge.

Re: Olympic nails
I like Organised Pip.
Is that Jewel Britannia Bic? I am still wondering whether I 'need' that.
Here is this afternoons experiment with dots. They need to be spaced out more, and application is poor. Plus I have not used my decals. Excuse the pre-cleanup shot.
I'm taking it all off now and replacing it with pink glitter.

Are there gold, silver and bronze awards?
I need to buy white nail varnish.

Re: Olympic nails
I think your spots are good George. I was going to do something similar. I just tried to do freehand rings and it was carnage.

Re: Olympic nails
Mine is he Claire's version because our Superdrug had sold out of Jewel Brittania. I would love a go of the real thing, see if the application is any better.

Re: Olympic nails
I ditched the pink glitter and went for blue. Couldn't resist trying out the decals, even though they will look better on white, and thought I'd better show:

Re: Olympic nails
Love the dots! I'm not at all qualified to say, but I think the decals are a bit disappointing. Too understated maybe. I love the blue though.

Re: Olympic nails
I really love the dots! The decal isn't as dramatic. I'm counting both as entries though.

Re: Olympic nails
I am going to have another try with the dots. Painting your nails three times in one day isn't excessive, non?

Re: Olympic nails
The decals' colours will definitely look better on white.
Good work George.

Damnit.
I've just bitten all of my nails down because I hate filing them.

Are nail wraps within the rules? I have just remembered what I have in a drawer...
