In honor of St. Paddy's Day this weekend, here are two rainbow-themed projects I attempted from Pinterest:
The above pic is from pinterest. I found the air heads sour colorful ribbons in the $1 section at Target, Score! I had wanted to make them forever, and ended up making them for my sister's 22nd birthday.
I had a white box cake mix and white frosting. I added lots of food coloring to the batter.
They turned out really well! Except for the rainbows on top. They totally slid off the frosting :/
Pinterest Project #2 - Rainbow Swirl Nails
BF sent me this pic he found on Pinterest. He loves color. And lots of it. Here's a pic I snapped of the shoes he got when we were in NYC. We go out, he wears them and gets non-stop complements: 

Anyway, so to do the color swirl nails, you get a bowl of water, drop a bunch of nail polish colors in, swirl with a toothpick, then dip your nails in.
... and here's my result.
Yeah... kind of gross. Maybe if I used fancy china glaze nail polish like in the pic above they might have turned out better? I won't call this one a total fail, but it wasn't pretty.
Have you made anything from Pinterest for St Patrick's Day?







that whole nail polish thing sees so messy. was it terrible?
