Hello lovelies,

Please welcome Narmai aka PiggieLuv, an amazing nail artist! I have been admiring her work since she started blogging and I'm sure many of you have seen her work at some point. She specializes in hand painted designs and as I call it 'out of the box 3D' nails. For today she has prepared a beautiful beach landscape and tutorial!

Hey ladies! I can't tell you how excited I am to be here, to be asked to guest post for Lucy's Stash! I've been a fan of her nails for forEVER so this is like a dream come true :) I chose to paint a dreamy beach landscape, it's the perfect romantic getaway for a honeymoon!

I like freehanding landscapes, it's such a relaxing thing for me. I use acrylic craft paints to paint, they are easier to work with than nail polish. They are easier to mix, to dilute, and they're much thinner than polish so it's easier to paint tiny details with them. Plus of course my Roubloff 00 detail brush, can't forget that one!

Now if I could only.... jump into my nails.... Wouldn't you love to take a vacation right there in that spot?

A big thanks to Lucie for having me, I hope you're having fun!!!!

Hello lovelies,

Today I have for you a stunning watermarble manicure from Ida aka Ida Nails It! Ida usually does swatches but I managed to convince her to do nail art and it came out amazing! I can't do watermarble so I admire hers very much :) Enjoy the post...

Hey all! This is Ida from Ida Nails It. I have been a long time follower of Lucy's Stash and was more than happy to be able to guest post for her while she is away. I have always loved her nail art and knew that I had to do some sort nail art of my own. For my post today, I decided to go with a look that shows off a few things I love: neon polishes, dots, and water-marbling.

Yes! That's right, I said water-marbling! If you had told me a year ago that I would love to do water-marbling nail art, I would have said, "NOPE". Well, after a lot of practice and most importantly, finding polishes that spread well, I have more than come around to this nail art technique.

I decided to go with bright neon colors from the Pipe Dream Polish A Night in Vegas Collection, specifically On the List, Light of Day, 110 Degrees, All In, and V.I.P Pass. There are many neon collections out there (and I own more than a few myself) but I find myself going back to the Pipe Dream A Night in Vegas Collection, as they do really work well for water-marbling.

After I water-marbled each nail, I wanted to go one step further and added some black dots to accent. Because everything looks better with dots! Using a dotting tool and my go to black polish, American Apparel Hassid, I free handed random lines of small dots. I really liked how these turned out, with the black contrasting against the bright neon colors.

I hope you have enjoyed my post for today and thank you Lucie for having me!
