I don’t know about you, but I’m so ready for the weekend. This has been quite a busy week. I’m looking forward to a long holiday weekend with my family…..minus my son. I think he is staying at college for the weekend. Really hoping he would come home. September means that fall is just around…

I haven’t tried the Mega Shine but I’m like you with the polish! I even have a post about polish on my blog, I love it so much. 😉 I just can’t keep it on very long either for the same reasons. But I love having my nails painted. I used to use a great top coat that dried instantly Seche Vite. But I try to stay away from chemicals as much as I can and that one was loaded. But I found another that I use when I need ultra quick drying..China Glaze Fast Forward Top Coat. It is amazing. I love Zoya brand best though for health reasons.
Following ya!

Nancy, I will have to try your recommendations on polish and top coats. I’m a polish junkie!!!! I just popped over and started folling you as well. Glad we met on Instagram. Look forward to meeting in person at Haven! Christy
I’m going to try that Sally Hansen product. My hands really get dried out in our desert climate, especially when the temps drop even into the 50’s. Now we are having some freezing weather, so they are really a mess. I’ve never had a professional manicure — too expensive, not patient enough for it, and a hubby who took a “Hazardous Chemicals Class” where they talked about how dangerous those manicure chemicals are (those little masks that some manicurists wear are not effective at all). I do try to wear rubber gloves and have those surgical gloves under every sink in our home. I even use them when I’m doing food prep! I really do like to polish my nails, especially when I’m doing a lot of sewing — helps keep my fingers away from the sewing machine needle, if you know what I mean.
I’m anxious to see how you’ve used those little wire shelves. I have a few of them, but could definitely use more.
Have a great weekend!

Carol, you sound like me!!! I painted my nails last Thursday afternoon and they are just starting to chip….probably because I just cleaned out the birdfeeders! The SH top coat is thick and is supposed to be. I hope you like it. I am posting my dining room cabinet organizing today!
