Creative with Konad

A few days ago I found a keychain/beer bottle opener in my room and I thought it would be fun to decorate it with some konad! I've made pictures of it, sorry for the weird colours etc, they turned out to be overexposed etc so I tried to make them a bit better,... but it didn't really get that much better :(.

So I started with this;

As you can see it had a text on it (got it for free so, if you want to live in Rotterdam, go to that website;) ), removed it with some nailpolish remover.

The side of this keychain looks like this;

And you can use this chain to open up bottles etc.

So I grabbed my konad plates (M57, M71) and a black and pink polish, and some glitter polish to use as a "top coat".

The results;

It got kinda smudged on the top because of the glitter polish, but it doesn't bother me that much. I'm going to give this to my mum because she likes it a lot!

Do you like it? Have you ever decorated anything besides your nails with either konad or other nail supplies?

To-buy list

So there are some (beauty) things I need to buy! also added the shops, they're Dutch.

-notebook(s), I love notebooks so much! (goedkope boekwinkel)
-nailpolish, no pink anymore but other colours! (essence/catrice, kruitvat)
-eye shadow palette, I never wear eye shadow but I think I should give it a try, so I'll try to find a palette with some nice, basic colours (hema, kruitvat)
-a basic hair shampoo instead of all those special products, I heard someone's hair looked so much better after using a basic product (hema)
-nail file (kruitvat)
-a dvd I've been looking for (freerecordshop)
-eye shadow base (hema)
-foundation (rimmel)
-proper diary (goedkope boekwinkel)
-a lot of things at this shop called Action
-some brushes
iblack and white nailpolish (for konad)

{i'll be adding more later}

My nail "designs"

I really like making designs on my nails and they don't really look that great and most of the time I'll remove them once I'm done, but it's still a nice thing to do. Here are a few pictures of some designs I've made (from new to old);
