One Nail to Rule Them All

One Ring to Rule Them All, One Ring to Bi

So, lest you think this blog is getting too girly and beauty involved, I felt compelled to add one of my nerdier creations.  Unfortunately I cannot claim this brilliant idea as my own.  That honor goes to billybrine.tumblr.com and I could only hope to copy the great idea.

This design was done on my left hand only (I wasn't up to writing Elvish script with my left hand) so I ended up including only the first half or so of the inscription.

I used a base gold coat of Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in 310 Gilty Pleasures and actually traced out the design with pencil then normal pen.  Probably not the best method but I sealed in the pen with my new Milani Black Sketch Nail Art Brush so it actually lasted for about a week.

If you're nerdy and not afraid to show some LOTR love this is a beautiful concept for you.  It requires a steady hand and if you want to be more precise, Elvish script is actually lovely closer together.  My favorite of my nails is the index finger.  It definitely shows a better flow of the letters.

All hail JRR Tolkien for his brilliant series and here's to the Hobbit movie (hopefully I'll figure out a new design for that premiere!)  Speaking of movie premieres, a certain movie (Starvation Monopoly?  Peckish Backgammon?  Oh I'm so clever) is coming out soon and I will definitely be doing something for that midnight premiere....I'm hunting for some pink hair right now...
