Back to normality

Ok, so it's been a long time since I posted last and I'm really sorry to you all for that! A lot has happened since June (yep, June!) and now things have settled down I'm hoping to get back to normality and back into blogging. 

I might as well be honest with you all about where I've been...back in May me and my husband found out we we're pregnant. I started to blog less and less due to my 'morning' sickness being in the evening. But unfortunately it wasn't to be and we lost our little boy at nearly 17 weeks, in August. Obviously it's taken a while for things to get back to normal and we are finally getting there.

Now in aid of a fresh start and all that, I've enrolled myself on a UV Gel nail and maintainence diploma, which I'm working through from home. As much as I'm loving this it does present a problem when it comes to my blog...I used to change my nail design near enough everyday to create tutorials etc for you to read, but now I have to make sure I get in as much practice as possible on real nails so I have to do my own! 

                              The day my diploma equipment arrived

This all means a fresh start for the blog as well as myself. Rather than just sticking to tutorials and my own designs there will be a range if different posts between my own nail designs, which I now tend to change every 1-2 weeks.

            Progress: On the right,one of my first attempts at applying & blending
                          On the left,after lots of practice it's looking better :)


So I hope you will return to my new and improved blog in the future. Watch this space for more posts!
