China Glaze vs. GOSH vs. H&M

So I mentioned in a post that I thought my Gosh – Holographic was a dupe.. And I take that back.. Well and then again maybe not, I am really confused about this 😛 Because there are some big similarities in the H&M and the GOSH. The CG is more fine in the holo than the others are. But I will let you be the judge 🙂 I think my favorite actually might be Gosh, just cause it has that extra holo effect.. what do you think? But saying that the China Glaze is a bit different in the bunch so there’s no comparison here other than the holo effect it self. You with me still? 😛

But hey for this might only be for the trained eye.. I don’t think anyone could see any difference if I put them on randomly on and went to work 😛

Mom & Dad-Chairs

This is gonna be so off topic.. nothing nail related here today.. move it along people 😛

This Christmas I picked up a great idea from on of my favorite blogs, the danish blog guru Marie. She had a post about on how her home looked and had included a little contest and some pictures.  See her post here And in this I saw a great idea for a Christmas presents to my mom and my future “dad” 😛

So I present the Mom and Dad Chair!

Step 1:
You take 2x old dusty chair from a flea market

Step 2:
You take 1 old dusty grandfather to help you get the buttons off the legs

Step 3:
You burnish(is this right word?) the chair where the glue is suppose to be put on

Step 4:
You put a lot of pictures of the person the chair is intended to on

Step 5(optional):
Then you maybe put something a little extra on (in this case a picture from their wedding day)

Step 6:
Then you coat it with some see through stuff so it wont be worn up so quickly and voila you have a mom and dad chair ;DThen you have the dusty grandfather disguise it as something completely different when wrapped.
And then they had a very merry Christmas! 😀
I wish I was there when they got the present, but this year I had to work Christmas eve
(oh well can re-use the idea when I get some grandchildren for them at some point :P)

But they really liked their present and it came in handy for our Christmas party 😀

NOTD / Gosh – Holographic

So first up I wanna show a picture from yesterdays NOTD with a bit of sunshine on it

Gorgeous right? 😀 And with a bit of sunshine on it looks even more like a foil 😀

And moving on for this NOTD.
A holo. My favorites are holos, mostly because they are like glitters.. shiny and glittery just without the glitter and that makes it SO much more easier to get off 😛
And without much further ado. Here is some nice holo shots, without a flash I have to take advantage of that sun!
