So why do Halloween nails need to be doom and gloom? I’ve decided to go for a neon splodge decorated with spiders. The spiders are stamped (except my friend on the wall) from the plate I received in the ‘lucky bag‘ I purchased for $0.99. I actually quite like creepy crawlies so the fact it had snails, centipedes and spiders on it didn’t bother me, so I reckon it actually was a lucky bag for me.
(Please excuse the colour of my fingers, I’m not quite sure what’s went wrong as I am not currently sun-burnt and the lack of clean up – rookie mistake.) I used to avoid stamping with black, due to the fact the polishes I own didn’t seem to pack the punch black should. So I decided to order Konad Black and boy has it changed my stamping life! I am no longer scared to stamp in black, look how vibrant and bold and punchy those spiders are! For the sake of being fair, in-case you think I’m talking out my bottom, I did a little comparison test… The results speak for themselves really! What black polish do you use to stamp with?
Did you honestly pose with that spider? Ick! That gives me the heebs! Thanks for the stamping comparisons. I wondered if the more expensive stamping polish really would make that big of a difference.
Haha yup, sorry! Spiders don’t bother me, so I leave them to themselves in my house.
I’m glad you appreciated the comparison! The Konad was on sale at $7.59 when I bought it (about £5, but normally it’s $12.06/£7.80), OPI is usually around £12, and Barry M is £3.99. So actually it’s the mid-range that has proven the best!
Very nice. I have a Konad black polish (probably this very one) that I bought a little while ago and have yet to use for reasons I now don’t understand. Seriously got to crack this guy open – it’s such a difference on your spiders!
I know! I want to stamp everything in black now. And what’s better is that it’s in the mid price range (on sale at £5 or usually £7.80) compared to OPI (£12), Barry M (£3.99)!
That’s a real spider! Cute design but I only deal with spiders one way, a boot.
Haha Awww so cruel!
