This year, more than the ones before holds many hopes, and as everything new, it is sparkly and young and has time to prove its worth, and we have 365 days to see how our hopes and wishes will pan out.
Last year was not the nicest for the many people, and we can only hope that all we can do from now on is go up from here, just like a Shania Twain sings: "... Up, Up, Up, and Nowhere but Up From Here..."
I usually make sparkly manicures to start the year, but this year I have a different approach. I did add some glitters, but I went with bright, as we need to get out of the darkness that was 2021. I wanted to paint it as bright and colorful as my comfort level was.
When you can't decide which color to go with, just use them all! I am so lucky that skittle look is in, so I picked pretty and bright colors - all by Color Club Lacquer to be my canvas.
Starting with thumb, I used following colors: Youthquake; Warhol; Beach, Please!;Peace Out Purple and Single And Ready To Mingle. Most of the time, my skittle look is using very similar tones, as that is my comfort level at the time, but you never know, I may get more bold in the year to come. I used neon colors, but my camera can not handle the bright, so you are getting the muted colors here.
This is time to sparkle after all, and I topped my base with MDJ Creations - Disco Dancer glitter topper. All the different glitters in this topper reminded me of the confetti that are usually associated with the countdown to the New Year, and magically came out of ceiling in every movie that has this topic. LOL!
Once again, I used Uber Chic mini - 2020 Limited Edition stamping plate, together with the black and white stamping polishes. There will not be another chance to use all the twos and zeros on this plate, so may as well I will use them here.
I thought this is what I wanted to wear to welcome this year, but I decided to wear something totally different - still bright, but very different, totally my sentiment about the year we left behind. You will see it in a next few days...
Wherever you are, I hope you are warm, safe and that are you surrounded by the people you love and care about, be that family or friends.
Now, all I want to do is to wish all of you plenty of health, love, joy and prosperity in 2022.
I will raise the glass to all the good that is coming our way.
Cheers!
