HOLIDAY MANI: My ?Snowflake? Polish + Gradient + Stamping =

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU AND YOURS!!!!
Here is the festive mani I'm sporting for the holiday.

I started with two coats of my "Snowflake" polish. I've really been loving on this color the past few days. It goes well with all the freshly fallen snow we have here in Ohio.

I added some Red Dog Designs "Temptress" for a green glitter gradient. I then added a simple holly stamp accent, and dotted the berries in red. This manicure was really quick. I'm getting faster at doing gradients gradients, since I've been wearing them a lot this season.

Here is a photo of ALMOST everything I used for this mani. Left out of the photo, are my basecoats and topcoats.

My dotting tool, stamping tools, a holiday plate from my friend Jin, and a makeup sponge.

I have had a few people ask about clean up brushes lately. Here's what I use. It's a small slanted paintbrush from the craft store. It was $2 and I've been using it for more than a year. The bristles aren't frayed, or broken, and none of the bristles have fallen out. Even the handle has held up perfectly against my mini-vat of acetone.
I use 100% Acetone for my clean up. It's just quicker, easier and cheaper for me. I don't use anything else.

Quite a combo of polishes!

So what do you think of this holiday mani? Do you have any special holiday plans?
