I almost didn’t say “Spring” flowers. I was tempted to just
say “Flowers” for FingerFood’s Theme Buffet.
say “Flowers” for FingerFood’s Theme Buffet.
You want to know why?
BECAUSE IT IS SO HOT. And it is only March. I guess that is
part of the Floridan life, but I don’t remember EVER having a “spring” feeling.
I think this year February stayed mostly in the mid to upper 70s, so that was
pleasant. But the last few days – have been in the 80s, hot, and humid.

Being a lifelong Floridian, I can’t claim to know the true
beauty of the seasons, but I’ve seen enough in the movies and television to
know/assume there is supposed to be flowers everywhere, fields of pinks and purples
and reds. Dainty smells whishing though the air. And because I’m a Disney baby:
I have to assume there are just cute little birds chirping along.

Hah! I’m laughing at that too. I seriously doubt that is at
ALL what happens, but that’s ok, I can dream.

Flowers were the theme of the week for the exciting
FingerFood’s Theme Buffet. And these are

Keeping up with my goal to try and improve my freehand, I
attempted to work on making grass and stems. Didn’t want to go too far too soon
and try and paint the flowers too! That would be crazy. And hideous.

What is Spring like where you live?
**UPDATE: There has been a video tutorial on how I made these**
These are so pretty! I love how dream-like the leaves are and the way you did the flowers adds a lot of dimension.
80 degrees in March ;_; Jealous. It's somewhere in the 30s here right now, and that actually feels WARM compared to the rest of the winter
Thank you Manda 🙂 I wish I could trade some heat for some COLD! If only…..
How fun! These are definitely something I haven't seen before too.
Thanks Lisa!
These are so creative!
Thank you Anne!
so wise use of pearls !
Thanks Anita, trying to use up my stash 🙂
wonderful! perfect for spring- I love it very much 🙂
Thank you so much 🙂
Oh my dot… These are gorgeous! I love using microbeads for the flowers! I've been agonizing over wanting to do bluebonnet nails, but my last attempt was such a fail. You may have just given me the keys to the kingdom!
Hehe thank you! Actually, I should go update the details. Those aren't micro/caviar beads (though they look just like it) they are actually flat back stones (like the rhinestones) that are probably plastic, but have a pearl look to them.
But I think the caviar/micro beads would work just as well 🙂
I envy the warm weather!!! Really nice mani.
How ingenious to use micro beads for the flowers! And there are some really talented women in this challege!
You did a great job with the freehanding and I love the pearls for the flowers!! Very unique and perfect for spring <3
This is so awesome! Such a creative use of those caviar beads! Love the final look.
What a pretty colorful lovely mani you have done! I love the caviar beads on the nails it sets it off perfectly 🙂
WOW! I've never seen anything like this. So pretty and SO creative!
