Anxious Gengar is now my favorite Pokémon for the time being. I NEEEEEEEEED a plushie of it. Someone out there, if you're listening, please make one. 😳
And buy my nails so I can actually afford a Switch 2 💀🤣 (jks I'd probably spend it on nail supplies instead)

Who else is living off $1.50 dogs in this economy? 🌭
Half my wardrobe is legit filled with Kirkland branded clothing and I get asked a l l t h e t i m e if I work for them. Guess it was obligatory of me to make a nail set to go with the outfits 😶
Will this pop off in my store like the Kirkland x Nike SB Dunk did? 🤣 pls
I also didn't manage to buy those shoes 🙃 my life sure is missing a lot.
Thank you Costco for being one of the least evil corporations in murica 🫡

Every day PON
Every time is PON
🎀👁🦷🧠🦴🫀🎀
So I found out just a few days ago that my husband has never heard of ponponpon until I made this nail set and showed it to him and he was like ¿¿¿??¿¿¿ I'm still trying to decide what do with that revelation 🤯
Anyhow, I'm super glad I finally had the opportunity to make a ponponpon themed set that's been sitting in the back of my mind for a while. A lovely buyer took the chance with one of my top tier mystery sets and here's what they got ~

📍AAPI Bazaar @levisplazasf
I just had my first SF event at the absolute most beautiful corporate office ever 🤯 It felt like walking into a botanical garden with a modern twist and even a @vervecoffee stand inside??
All the thanks to the Uplift team for having me here 🫶🏻
If anyone told the me from 2019 what I'd be up to right now, I wouldn't believe it. While I didn't actually quit my corporate job with the intention to make nails, this is where I am now 🤪 It's been fun to see all the different worlds out there with these new experiences. And my past corporate jobs definitely did not have communities and vibes like this 🤣

Another set for the early 2000s childhood nostalgia! And bringing out all the primary crayon colors 😆
I completely underestimated how difficult all those fine lines would be though 🫣 But well worth the isolated gold chrome effect in the end. We must all be bougie looking adults with luxurious children's toys on our fingers ✨️
Did you know my Tamagotchi tooth gem design is partially glow in the dark?? 🫣
Well I kinda forgot too. I just grab whatever colors go with the vibe, and whoops it glows 😶

Okkieeee so my other Sailor Moon design has been such a hit I keep running out of charms and always gotta wait for restocks and all which is such a good problem to have 🥹 But also I've been wanting to add more colors and variations to Sailor Moon themed nails. Excuse my ADHD, but here's another!
Remembering how in ~2016 era there were soooooo many themed makeup collabs and I wanted them all. But me being a broke student at the time and now the world has moved on from the makeup hype 🥲
I'm just gonna keep putting all my kiddie desires onto nails.

📍Santa Clara Night Market May 1 - 2
Here's a recap of my first ever outdoor market:
○ super flattered by all the people who came by and said they NEEEEEDED to look for the Costco nails 🙂↔️🤭
○ I dressed very warmly for the windy nights! .....which meant I died in the sun during the day 🤡👍🏻
○ was placed right next to the stage x__________x I am an old woman who does not party. Appreciate those who still stopped by to chat despite the loud music 🥺 We had to scream at each other and I probably still misheard everything 😵💫
○ happy to see some familiar faces again! This was actually only my 2nd event ever as a vendor and anyone I met at FRIENDfest who came by my booth again to say hi, I'm declaring you my new bffls c:
○ someone stole my pen on day 1 🤡
○ apologies to those who were bamboozled again by my giant fishing lure sign 🤣 I do not sell fishing lures. But idkkkk maybe it's a good idea 💡
○ met tons of super cool parents out there who would let their kids wear nails 👀
○ portapotties 💩
Thank you again to everyone who came by to check out my nails 🫶🏻 I already have many more ideas for the future and it'll all be possible thanks to all the support I've gotten so far!

Experimenting more with some piercing nails 👀
and this took way longer than expected and I wasted a bunch of rings till I found some sturdy enough for my liking, and made my hands smell like metal with all the fondling 😊

Pumpkins, balls, tentacles, phallus.
Happy things for all.
Did a small redesign of one of my first and oldest Yayoi Kusama themed sets to make the pumpkins more pumpkin shaped! Still a huge Kusama fan and still not tired of doing nails with tons of polka dots! But after 4 separate trips to Japan in the last decade, I still haven't been able to visit the Kusama museum in Tokyo due to poor planning and bad luck 🫠
Someday.
