I've been enjoying some mother-daughter time over Christmas, helping Child No.3 with one of her favourite gifts - a nail art set. There was also a pot of gold crackle nail varnish in her personal Christmas cracker so she has plenty of scope for fun manicures in the future. However on Christmas Day itself we had fun trying out several of the ideas from the inspiration booklet:
From left to right:
- Purple base colour with gold crackle effect
- Black & white Yin-Yang symbol on white base
- Turquoise base with pink & white swirls
- Black base with pink & turquoise starburst & gold dots
- Purple base with multi-coloured butterfly
- Yellow & red chevrons
- Glitter base with red, white & blue stripes
- Daisies on a green field
- Pink base with turquoise & white swirls
- Red base with gold crackle effect
Not bad for a first attempt - my favourite to do was the daisy field and appropriately enough, Child No.3 liked No.3 best! Which is your favourite?

What a clever ten! I love the daisies too - I wonder what I'd look like with daisied fingernails?
So much fun! I'm with you...love the daisies!
How fun! I love painting my nails in fun colors and shapes and it was neat to see what you did here. Great idea for a 10 on the 10th post! :)
wish my nails could look like that!
Following my trip to Florida I like the red, white & blue stripes the best x
Oh, that is way too much fun! I would have to grow my nails a little longer to attempt such an experiement, lol!
These are fab, lovely 10 on the 10th!

Wow. That is a lot of polishing. :) Fun stuff!
Oooh - my daughter would love that! Unfortunately I'm rubbish at painting nails - I always get it in the wrong place :)
That's a perfect 10!

What a lovely post! I love the daisy field too. It's good to have mother-daughter time.
They are so good -I fail miserably with any type of nail art - I'm with you on the daisies. Great idea for a post.
Thank you for your comment. Love the purple one with butterfly, very pretty. Brilliant idea.

If my employer would allow it, I'd have my nails that way. I love all the crazy, cool designs.
Great list! Hard to pick a fave, but I really like the glitter with stripes.
How unique! Lovely, lovely photo and how great to have hands like this ..
So very clever,I think my fav is the blue
Defo the butterfly - so cute!
Oh, this is the coolest TEN I've seen! I am loving those daisies :)
Oh how fun! I got some new nail polish for Christmas in fun colors & need to make time for a manicure soon as the one I got on the cruise is finally looking a little chipped.
Daisies for me, my nail lady is on holiday, can I come over? ;) Brilliant idea for 10 on the 10th
