Snake skin
Slithering your way today - snakeskin nails! I've seen actual snakeskin nails - trimming shed skin meticulously to the size of each nail, attaching, and sealing to last a few weeks. Evidently, many nail salons offer this look for the everyday-low price of ~$300. I think I'd pass on that price tag and just do it myself... and I had snakeskin laying around and had nothing better to do with it, I might've tried that. Unfortunately, I'm fresh out of snake bits laying around the house, so I'll just have to mimic the pattern with paint.

Way cool! Love the look AND the color!
ReplyDeleteToo bad I don't still live in East Texas. Had several snake skins lying around. Just outside the house, under the house, in the house. (after I moved, went back to clean up and there was a shedded skin over 5 feet long!) Guess I was gone longer than I thought. ;)
5 feet? That's petty impressive! Up there, I'd bet it was a corn snake. That, or someone's pet python got out and is now helping keep the rabbit population under control! ;)
