Happy Birthday, Lucy! ...And Finger Paints Holiday Bottle Pictures

Above: Finger Paints Holiday Collection L-R: Sparkling Snow, Evergreen Dream, Candy Cane Shimmer, Snowman's Scarf, Decked With Dazzle, Icy Iris. Click picture for finish detail.

I stopped at Sally Beauty on Monday to inquire about the Finger Paints Holiday Collection and the sales girl didn't know anything about them. She said to check back on November 1. So I called them yesterday and asked for the manager to see if they might have them sooner, and sure enough, they were in the back room and she said she'd be happy to hold them for me. Now that's more like it! I picked them up today and it looks like Finger Paints has come through again with an extremely nice holiday collection. I didn't see the display, so if anyone knows the name of the collection, I'd be curious to know what it is.
Today is our dear friend Lucy's birthday. I wanted to take this opportunity to wish her a very Happy Birthday and to say thank you for your loyalty, your funny and honest comments, and most of all, your friendship. Enjoy the day, my friend!

In other news, I'll be doing a review soon on Del Sol Color Changing nail polish, and wanted to let you know that I've added a code for $5.00 off an online order from them over in the right hand column under "Tip Jar", if you're interested in trying out this brand. Don't forget, you have until midnight tonight to enter for a chance to win a full sized set of Essie's Sweet Time of the Year collection. Just check out my post from yesterday for all of the details. I'm very close to having my nail polish organization finished and it's been an interesting experience. The spread sheet is almost done as well, and I'm a little afraid to total things up! I'll be doing a post soon on the final project and share with you some of the thoughts that crossed my mind and some other useless yet interesting things that I realized while working on this project.

Mary i started a spreadsheet a few weeks ago and just didn'tget around to finishing it aaah. You must have 100x more than me lol. I'm interested in seeing your organization results :)

I hope you have a very happy birthday Lucy :)

The Pretty Brown Girl said...

Happy Birthday Lucy!!

I'm eyeing those FingerPaints polishes w/a serious longing! Evergreen Dream & Decked with Dazzle are calling me!

Lucy said...

Thank you so much Mary! You've made my day. Thank you everyone else also. I can't believe what wonderful people I've met and who makeup the nail polish community. Wonderful sweet people. I've gotten behind in my reading again! I finally caught up for 2 days and then life gets in the way. The water at my complex is out again. Last Friday and Saturday no water. Now it's out again. How do people live without running water? I've never used Finger Paints. They look pretty. I need to do a spreadsheet also. I've never done one nor do I know how to. I guess I'll figure it out someday. I write all my polishes down in a notebook. Can't wait to see everything finished in your room. What a crazy hobby we have!

Happy Birthday Lucy!

I bought some of the Finger Paints holiday collection and can't wait to try them :)

I also made a spreadsheet for all my nail polishes too!

Kalmo said...

How nice of them to hold the nail polish! :) They all look super pretty.

Inbal said...

happy birthday Lucy! :-)

Phyrra said...

I love Finger Paints! They are so underrated!

Mary, the Fingerpaints Holiday Collection is Called A Flurry of Holiday Color.

I use Access to keep track of all my nail colors. It alphabetizes them and keeps a total of how many I have. Looking forward to pictures of when you have yours all organized.

Mary said...

Siamese Flame~thank you, I was really curious about the name and forgot to ask the SA! I'm using Excel, but I'll have to look at Access, maybe it would be better, although I'm not that familiar with it.

Phyrra~I agree, they always come out with some unique colors, especially in their Holiday collections.

Inbal~Lucy's great :)

Kalmo~I was surprised when she said she would, but very happy!

Nail Fanatic~I used to have a spread sheet but then I quit adding to it and totally lost track, so I'm glad to have one again!

Lucy~I hope you enjoyed the day! And I hope you have water again :) Finger Paints are very nice polishes, I think you'd like them.

Pretty Brown Girl~I can't wait to try them, they're all pretty but some of them are exceptionally stunning!

Chocaddict~I think they look really pretty also. All pretty, but there are definitely some that look different and unique, especially the ones that appear to have almost glass-flecked glitter.

Kae~now that I have it made, it's very easy to keep up...until I get behind again! But now I'm trying to enter them as I use them, because I already have everything entered other than the untried ones.

Liz~you're welcome! Let's just hope we get some sun soon so I can do the review!

Nathalie~thanks for leaving best wishes for Lucy!

Glittermillie~they do look beautiful...after I picked them up, I sat in the car pulling them out one by one and holding them up admiring them! I'm sure if anyone was parked nearby they thought there was something wrong with me :)

Brooke~I think you need them too :) Hope you can find them soon.

PowerLifterChick~thanks for Lucy's wishes :)

Skye~I'm almost done organizing and it's not perfect, but so much better than it was :
