Crackers and Rangoli nail art

Hello All! Today I have two themes from the Indian Festive Challenge - Crackers nails and Rangoli nail design.

For Cracker nails, I wanted to show one of my favourite diwali crackers - Ground chakra also known as Bhuchakra. I painted all my nails with Kleancolor metallic Purple and stamped with Moyou Fairy Collection 01 using Maybelline Colorshow BoldGold. Looks like I am in love with Kleancolor metallic purple shade;its so beautiful.

Karva Chauth Nail art

Hi Friends! Today is Karva Chauth - the day when married women fast from sunrise till the moon sets for long life and safety of husband. Although I do not keep this fast,(I usually fast during Teej every year) I love this tradition. Women apply Henna, wear traditional clothes and do shringar.

Starting this week, I would be participating in Indian festivity Nail challenge, so keep visiting my blog :)

Dusshera Celebrations and Nail art

Dusshera is one of the biggest Hindu festivals. It marks victory of good over evil. Happy Belated Dusshera to you all!

Being a part of Kutchi family, navratri is of great importance. For all the nine days we have a lamp lit in Garbha(decorated pot), do Gayatri Path and Mataji Ki puja. On all the nine days there are garbha/danidya programs :) Here are some of the pics, straight from the home.

I used some of my new untried polishes for the pattern and flowers- Models own Polish for tans - Sun Hat, Beach Bag and Flip Flop and OPI Suki Takes the Wheels for the base.
