Steampunk Nails and Steamed Greens

I've been trying to eat my greens while they are fresh. I've steamed them and put over rice with butter and soy sauce and steamed as a side.



I ordered my Maven box for August, I chose to upgrade to the full collection. I decided to try a couple looks with Faye- a bronze color while I wait. This first one I paired with Juleps Sienna and Petites' Passion Orange.


The second one I used several metalics to try a steampunk look. I used striping tape and gem stone layered with a copper polish for a grommeted metal look. I then used nail stamps to simulate gears on the other nails. To finish I hand painted tentacles, which were harder than I planned. I had to outline so the would show up. They looked better before outlining and I should have just done them in black as a shadow effect.
