peep toes

 

So the tulips have gone but the marigolds and the toes have come out. About time, too. I can now make an informed decision as to which gloriously daft colour of nail varnish to buy. Should it be Chuffed Jelly or Muggins or Mad as a Hatter or Melon of Troy? Red, orange and pink sound so boring...

Oh to have the job of naming cosmetics. Melon of Troy is wonderful!

[Jacky]

It makes you feel like summer must surely arrive soon!!!

[Diane]

Buy them all!!! Summer is too short to dither. xx

[Jane]

Oh I'd have to buy chuffed jelly - though perhaps muggins might be nearer the mark for me.

[Rosie Girl]

Those names are so wonderfully inspiring! (Nice birks, by the way.)

[Ingrid]

Love all the colours!! What the hell get them ALL!!

Just received your American quilt book in the mail. It's a gift for a friend, but I peeked at it first. What lovely things you make!

[Margo]

Minger and Primrose Hill Pink look like fun colors too. Love these nail polish names!

Hello Jane, well looking at the marigolds for inspiration I think it has to be orange really with the odd yellow toe for variety!

[Gill]

Personally I'd go for the Mad As A Hatter though must admit I'd never heard of Butter varnishs. Think a bit of spending may be called for. I blame you of course.

I have just spent an hour cooling off in the garden reading your lovely new patchwork book. I want to make a quilt for my daughter, but I have dabbled before, so the craft that I would like to try for the first time is stained glass. It is the bright colours that attract me and similar to making fabric patchwork.

How fun! I liked looking through the nail polish colors.

Oh, Melon of Troy, just for the name! Unfortunately I only have five toenails to paint this summer, as the other five fell off as a result of my running the London Marathon. It's not a good look.

OMG - just looked at the link - there is a varnish called 'minger' too funny! My daughter and I had just been laughing at B&Q's names for paints - can't wait to show her this site

Thanks for letting us play with all the colors, time for taking life less seriously.
