The Fault in Our Stars

I definitely wouldn't say reading is one of my hobbies let me rephrase that: I don't read. I'm a slow reader, so unless they're textbooks or mandatory for school, you wouldn't find me reading on my free time. For a while, my reason was that I didn't have the time. People would say it's because I haven't found the right book, but I realized now that it wasn't that; I haven't found the right author. After reading The Fault in Our Stars in 2 days, I guess you could say I found him! I love John Green's writing as much as the story, so I went ahead and bought 2 of his other books, BUT BACK TO NAILS!

Obviously, this design is inspired by the novel. The base colour is a liquid sand, OPI Tiffany Case, which dries instantly and applies really well. I did end up applying top coat to make the accent designs smoother, which defeats the purpose of the liquid sand, but the polish still looks as gorgeous.

Here's a close up! Painting the words actually took me a lot longer than painting the "Lonely, Vaguely Pedophilic Swing Set (that) Seeks the Butts of Children." I should've settled with "OK" and left the "AY" out, but I think it looks better this way.
