OK polish is doing its thing on the bag Very Happy

Princess Sossidge...can I ask a question re the dry method?

I'd be hopeless at cutting it to the right width, but would it really matter if I cut it too wide? Could I just get rid of any excess with a cotton bud dipped in remover, like I would for a normal clean up?

Laura Tue Jun 25, 2013 4:54 am

I wondered that Starry but I think because it's already bonded together and pretty much dry it may not work?

I'm a bit concerned that it may peel off... might have to smuggle polish to Glasto!

I bet acetone would shift it, even if it is dry.

Laura Tue Jun 25, 2013 8:18 am

Ugh think I layered it on too thick.

I tried using remover to make the dry marble fit the nail but it just showed the bottom layer of the polish and went all gooey. I found it easier to cut the dry marble piece just a little bit smaller and stretch it and file the top edge off.

Did it not work Laura?

Laura Tue Jun 25, 2013 9:07 am

Still not dry enough to be able to peel the back off :/

Laura Tue Jun 25, 2013 9:32 am

Hmm don't think this will work

Laura Tue Jun 25, 2013 9:48 am

Spoke too soon, 2 nails done Very Happy

Laura Tue Jun 25, 2013 10:55 am

It worked! Princess Sossidge you're a star!

I'm a little concerned it's all going to peel off but it looks sooooo good, will blog it tomorrow Very Happy

Princess Sossidge Tue Jun 25, 2013 6:42 pm

It should stay on well with top coat... glad it worked, can't wait to see pictures Smile

It looks great Laura. I'll be really interested to see how well it wears x

I hope you had a fantastic time at Glastonbury Laura. How did the polish hold up?

I thought of you whilst I was watching Mumford & Sons (I have a vague recollection you like them too?!?). Very Happy

Had all peeled off by Friday. Think I did it too thick.

But yes, I love Mumford and Sons, they were amazing last night Very Happy
