From the Vault - I Scream, You Scream, We all Scream for Ice Cream

Sooo... I am debating forgetting about doing From the Vault posts. For multiple reasons.

One, all old designs that I show are either really crappy in my application or lack of cleanup, and therefore are disgusting, and should be seen by no eyes other than my own... and even that is a stretch!

As well, previously, all I had to take pictures with was a digital camera that wouldn't focus to pick up detail on anything small, or one of the original iPhones with terrible cameras! So the photography is equally as craptastic, blurry, out of focus, and awful.

PLUS, I consider "from the vault" to be at least 6 months old. I don't have many looks that I do and don't post. If so, they're fails and I end up just getting rid of them, anyway. Or they're swatches. Which is why I am, instead, dabbling with the idea of dedicating one day per week, or per month, to a swatch post.


Any thoughts?

From the Vault - Red Half Moons with Bows and Stones

I had just gotten a few of the Kleancolor Chunky Holo polishes when I did this mani. I believe this is also what began my obesession with those big, white bows! ^.^

From the Vault - Feeling Fruity for Fimo Fun

This, I believe was my first mani, or one of my firsts, with fimo slices. It was a "lemonade" mani. Apparently lemonade is now made with oranges, limes and kiwis, and whatever that thing with the rough-looking edges is supposed to be, too! O.o

From the Vault - Galaxy Nails

I did these nails quite a while ago, but they make me want to revisit the galaxy mani and improve it!

My mom has this pillow/pillow case that I had seen about a thousand+ times and it eventually inspired me to create a mani.

The inspiration:

From the Vault - Blue Leopard Print

Keeping with m y recent animal print theme, this was a design I did based on a similar one in pink that LOVE4NAILS on YouTube did. 

I started out in tones of blue with glitter...

From the Vault - Tigre de Fuego

I still love the look of this design. In fact, I got so many compliments that I ended up doing the same look on two of my nieces and my mother-in-law! =P

From the Vault - Crackle Rainbow

I had recently purchased new nail gems and beads and was playing with them, but I still love the neon rainbow with crackle on top all by itself! It was my first time using crackle, and when I looked at it, I immediately thought it would love amazing over a neon rainbow! I just wish I had gotten pics after I cleaned up, of the plain design by itself without all the beads and crap all over! =P

From the Vault - Pink Gradient with Daisies

This was my first ever attempt at a gradient. Pre-clean up pics:

From the Vault - Hot Pink and Orange Floral

Another old one. Messy mani and blurry pics, but a hot pink and a bright burnt orangeish floral manicure. All fingers were pink with orange tips and the flowers were done with these flat plastic tear drop things and rhinstones, then the ring finger was bright orange with hot pink rhinestones, but I have no idea what the "design" was.
