So way back when, before most of you guys knew me, I actually used to be quite fancy.
I know! It’s hard to imagine it now. I barely even recognize that girl who always had her hair highlighted and carried a snazzy purse. I laugh a little when I remember what she spent on shoes. (For the record, I still want the shoes, I’ve just forsaken them in the name of raw food, real meat dog chews and high end dog gear. *cries*)
My pet project was always having my nails painted all pretty and shiny.
Back then, I could paint my nails without fear that a dog would lay on them or that a dog hair would get in them. (Dog hair gets in everything around here, you guys.) These days, when I paint my nails, I need it to be fast and easy. I don’t have the luxury of sitting around and playing with 4 different colours and a toothpick to create something pretty.
Good thing I found these adorable dog nail decals.
Oh my Etsy! Is there anything you can’t find over there? I am absolutely loving the idea that I can paint on a colour, add a decal and make my nails totally woof worthy with way less effort. I mean, how cute are these?!

Fun! I personally do not paint my nails. I keep my nails long and tidy but do not like to paint them. My mom, however, would love these. Perhaps I'll get her a set. Thanks for sharing! :)

My nails are pretty much a mess all the time these day! Cooking, crafting and work seem to kill them. These would make a super cute gift! I think I'll grab some as stocking stuffers - great idea!

Same here - I used to have a nail blog and everything! Now they look sad and neglected - specially after trying to put a new dog tag on a collar the other day, those split rings are unforgiving...
These decals are awesome though! I love decals :-) (toddles off promising to sort her nails out...)

You used to have a nail blog? How cool is that?! I would love to do that...except that I lack the skills to execute any of the adorable manicures I pin and love. That's why I'm like in love with this decal idea.
Split rings are the worst, but I have a secret! If you buy one of those cheap staple pullers, they open a split ring no problem! , but don't buy it using this Amazon affiliate link. They're usually way cheaper in the store.

Yer way more fancy than me! About as decaly as my chipped gross nails will be are the bits of refuse vinyl I weed out of bigger size decals that manage to get stuck all over my nails, hands, arms and clothing. Yeah, I found a bit I evidently on the gym floor the other day. Embarrassing! Not droppin' it like it's hot.
Regardless, these are really cool. Maybe someday if I get a social life again I'll find me some :)

LOL, you gave me a laugh Jen! I *used to be* fancy. I'm not anymore. My bakin', craftin', dog wranglin' hands are a mess.
