Nail Art: Diabetes Awareness - Patchwork Blues

November is Diabetes Awareness Month and so every Friday to raise awareness I am doing blue nails.

Type one diabetes can be diagnosed at any age, are you aware of the four T's?

The four T's stand for Toilet, Thirsty, Tired and Thinner.

Nail Polish Battle 2017: Blues

The blue category is large with nine polishes.

Barry M - Huckleberry // Barry M - Sky Blue // Barry M - Elderberry // Barry M - Blueberry // Nails Inc - Baker Street // A England - Order of the Garter // A England - Spirit of the Moors // Barry M - Blue Jade // A England - Proserpine

I did manage to get them down to my top three;

Nails Inc - Baker Street // A England - Spirit of the Moors // Barry M - Blue Jade

Baker Street blew up a few years ago when Beyoncé wore it. It is a cream finish polish which is quite vivid.

Blue Jade was a late comer in to my collection, it is nice I think for this time of year, a deeper blue than Baker Street but it is a bit more of a smoky blue.

Spirit of the Moors was one I was gifted for my birthday, it is a bright blue which holographic. Which if you have been following this series you will know is one of my favourite finishes.

31 Day Challenge: Inspired by Childhood

During my childhood I lived pretty much in the middle of a field. 90% of the time surrounded by sheep and occasionally by cows. When the sheep were lambs they would escape from the fields as the fences weren't lamb proof, sometimes I would come out of my bedroom and find lambs in the hallway. Which is where the inspiration came from today:
