Stained Glass

I’ve been doing so much stamping (mostly due to lack of time) that I haven’t been using many of my inspiration photos recently! This is another stamping day, but this one comes with inspiration, and is super glittery.

Years ago, I saw this stained glass mani at Emily de Molly and I died inside. I wanted the polish and the stamp and the whole thing. I finally bought the stamping plate, and thanks to the Polish Pickup Pack, I owned the perfect polish. This mani makes me so happy!

What you see here are three thin coats of Playing With Fire, which is a black opal inspired polish by Ever After. It is stunning! Black jelly base loaded with orange, red and a few green color-shifting flakes as well as tiny blue holographic hex glitters and even tinier green microglitter squares. I hope this polish is easier to take off than it looks, because it looks like a glitterbomb, but all the glitter is flakies!

Unfortunately, the polish is no longer available since it was one of the January polish pickup options, but since I’ve been buying 1-3 polishes per month with polish pickup, I have no shortage of incredible new polishes to play with!

So, super simple mani, incredibly glittery, and I finally fulfilled my dreams of making stained glass on my nails!

  1. Love what you did here, love seeing the process come to life! Another beautiful creation of yours 😊🙌🏽

  2. This is so gorgeous, I can’t find the words. I really love it.

  3. If you can find anything wrong with this review, you are in a state of “imagin-ment!”

    What is “polish pickup pack,” please?

    Be well and happy!

    • polish pickup pack is a facebook group where around 50 or so polish makers create a new monthly polish, and you can buy as many or as few of those creations as you want the one week per month they go on sale! Basically, lots of cool new polish that is only around for one month. Check out the facebook group

  4. Stunning! And what perfect alignment for the pattern ❤
