Nail Art of Halloween 2013


image credit:  polishpedia.com chalkboardnails.com
I can't see paying $25.00 - $35.00 for having my nails decorated for any event but especially not for Halloween!  I have the most fun throughout the month of October with doing my own nails.

I have to say that while I was an Avon Gal I became totally addicted to nails and nail polish and so I bought at all of the sales and have been adding different brands since then.  I buy nail art and get ideas from the Internet and FaceBook and Pinterest

I'm going to be sharing these various "keeps" that  I have for doing nails.  And today I bring you an article about the 25 Clever Halloween Nail Ideas from BuzzFeed!  I totally love that place!

Here is the article with the following pictures being shown and so much more!    http://www.buzzfeed.com/alannaokun/ween-nails

Created by diluting red polish and finger-blotting 
it onto the nail.

Some of these are so easy to do!  From amateur to pro.  Continue to the article about the 25 Clever Nail Ideas for Halloween to see all the pictures and directions!  

How many of you would enter a nail contest here for Halloween?  This would one of a number of pages of ideas for what to do.  The only rule is that you have to do it yourself and you only need one hand for your photo!  

This challenge will begin on this THURSDAY, Oct. 17th, 2013 for the 13 Nail Days of Halloween!  You can write to me at califbeachgal@fastmail.fm for the exact link that I will send on that day!

The 13 Days of Halloween Giveaway to go with the contest will offer 3 prizes in 3 levels: 

1.  Beginner Winner:        Nail Gift Bag
2.  Intermediate Winner:  Nail Gift Bag
3.  Advanced Winner:       Nail Gift Bag

Each contestant will determine which level in which they want to compete.  This is their choice since they will be able to determine best which level they are.   I will show a manicure that will best match up with the level in which they choose to compete.  More instructions to come on Thursday!

      Day 15 (1/2 way there!)

Family game nights are a fun and engaging way to promote family bonding and sneak in some learning opportunities.  Krista over at Savory Savings recently had the chance to review Go Ape, a fun “go fish” card game alternative from Patch Products. 

This game that encourages small children to mimic the actions on the cards to “ask” for pairs from other players.  This game is an affordable, non-tech way to encourage families to spend time together without sitting in front of a television or spending extra money.  It is lighthearted and your little ones will get a kick out of watching you scratch your head or dance around like a money to ask for cards.  And you will love watching them learn to make matches and count the number of cards to win!
This card game will make a great addition to your family game night or an excellent gift for the 3 to 7 year olds in your life!

Young kids are notoriously difficult to get to eat!  How many times have you negotiated with your kiddos to eat “just one more bite” or have struggled to come up with more ideas to get them to eat?  Some have found that fun shaped food helps their kids eat better and more, but that can be tedious and difficult – multiply that difficulty if you have more than one kiddo. 

Krista over at Savory Savings reviewed Fun Bites food cutters and is excited to show you this fun and easy way to cut food into fun shapes and sizes to encourage small kids to eat their food. 

When food is fun – everyone is more likely to enjoy it!  These BPA-free and easy to clean food cutters make a great addition to your kitchen and would make a great gift for anyone with small kids.  Making a kitchen-themed gift basket for your culinary whiz friend?  Why not add a Fun Bites food cutter to the mix for a cheeky and interesting way to dress up the basket?
