Draught Of Peace

Hey all!

Today I have an amazing polish to show you..  Draught Of Peace from Alanna Renees Magical World collection.   This collection was inspired by Harry Potter, so of course i had to get some of the polishes!  

From the Alanna Renee website:   'Draught of Peace is inspired by one of the potions Harry Potter had to brew in Potions class. Professor Snape, the Potions Master, gave Harry a zero for forgetting to add syrup of hellebore because he misread the instructions. When brewed correctly, Draught of Peace relieves anxiety and agitation.

Draught of Peace is a shimmery turquoise creme with silver glitter.'

This is a polish that is completely unique to my collection, and I absolutely adore it.  It was a little had to get a good pic of, so excuse the multi pics.  ;)

The formula on this was perfect, flowed lovely onto the nail.  This is with 2 coats, and then a top coat of HK Girl.  I can see this polish becoming a fast favourite, I will definitely be getting another bottle.  :)

You can order this gorgeous polish from the Alanna Renee website.

Mmmm Chocolate...

Well not quite, but that is what this polish reminds me off.. yummy melted chocolate.  It's Cate Ruby Corporate.  I know alot of people don't like brown nail polish, but I am a huge fan of it, and have quite a few.

Excuse my poor stamping skills, I am still learning.  I adore this colour though, its the perfect brown. The only thing I didn't like was that the brush was too long, which made for messy application.  

But how adorable are the bottles!?

Gypsy Creations

Hey all!
I have just realized, even though my blog is called Lacquer and Leather, I haven't actually shared any of my jewellery for ages!  Well that is about change.  ;)
For those who don't know, I have been making jewellery for just over a year. It all started from me first making a zipper bracelet like this...
I shared it on my profile on Facebook, had quite a few orders for them, and it has just taken off from there.  I officially started Gypsy Creations in April 2012, and haven't looked back!  
It's perfect for me, as I can work around my sons school hours, and various therapy appointments. 
While I mainly sell on my Facebook page,  I have started listing a few items on Etsy as well.


Here are a few other items I have made recently.

I love to make custom items, so if you are after something special, feel free to contact me via Facebook, or at funnylildancer@gmail.com .

Rhiannon from Love Thy Polish

I have a very special polish to show you today!  This is Rhiannon, from the Dreams collection, which is a collaboration between myself and the lovely Emma from Love Thy Polish.

Based on the Maker Of Birds demo, this amazing polish takes its colours from these lyrics: 'One emerald green, One snow white, One golden, flashing like a sunbeam through the night'.

Rhiannon  has a forest green base and brilliant golden shimmer.  Its simply beautiful!  Emma has outdone herself with this amazing collection!
