#161 - tackylicious

I found this pair of really tacky earrings when I was clearing out my drawer.

They're pretty nasty aren't they??

Well I decided to try to make them wearable. 

I picked a bottle of nail varnish from my collection. 

I decided on Boots Naturla Collection in Hibiscus.

I wouldn't use anything expensive (unless you're minted!) and I think this is like £1.99 or something so its ideal. 

I just painted them up, making sure I got into all of the nooks and crannies. 

It dried really quickly which was nice. 

I like that you still get a bit of a metallic sheen thru on them. 

Once they're dry - WEAR THEM!

Ok so they're still a wee bit tacky, but they look a lot better in pink than gold. 

Or so I think anyway. 

What do you think? 

Also, you know how Innocent smoothies have this thing where they come with a wee knitted hat

for charity? I picked a couple up in Sainsburys on 2 for £3 - yum.

But you might notice in the background that my Franky monster bobblehead is now nice

and cosy in a fetching pink and black winter hat!
