Pinterest Challenge - Day 7 - DIY French Manicure

Day 6 Pinspiration: Click here to see my pin

My DIY French Manicure:

I was so excited to find this on Pinterest because I never go get my nails done, its expensive and my nails get trashed at work because of how much antibacterial alcohol I have to use. This seemed like a great way for me to get a salon look for free! However I was very dissapointed, the tip color bled under the sticky onto the base nail color and the whole thing looked messy. Attempted a second time with a not to flashy color (silver) and It looked better but again not perfect like it does in the Pinterest version. So bummer here, but this Pinterest fantasy was... BUSTED

Hey you,

First off I would like to say thanks so much for stopping by my little spot on the web.

What do I want to say about myself, humm that's a tough one. Well I'm a 23 year old Kansan who recently moved to Salt Lake City, Utah with my wonderful boyfriend Ryan. It has been so exciting to be in a new place surrounded by new opportunities and experiences. For the first time, I have been able to start a fresh new life, be who I want to be and all. And that's what got me thinking, who do I want to be? And what do I want to work on and change about myself?

To help me find the answers, I began examining my life and the choices I've made that have lead me to having these questions about my life and who I am as a person. After some time routing around in my memories I started to notice a pattern, that many of my decisions in life were not based on ME and what I wanted for myself but rather on what I thought others expected from me. I decided to change, to stop worrying about other people and start focusing on myself.

That's what In the Moment with Melanie is all about. It's a place where I can talk about anything ME, my interests, views, thoughts and feelings. I'm hoping that with time and effort I'll be able to grow as a person and become a happier,healthier, BETTER ME.

Thanks for sharing in my journey,
