(and how much time will be involved) :P<BR/> I can also hold it up to the light to see the base color, which is often much different than the finished product. <BR/><BR/>Yes, I'm looking directly at you: MPJ, WOaS, EYS and Side-Saddle.<BR/><BR/>-wixbettyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4458561233223705903.post-63336659282091753902008-09-18T14:01:00.000-04:002008-09-18T14:01:00.000-04:00I found on transdesign.com the nail boards that ca...I found on transdesign.com the nail boards that can help you. They have the white plastic and clear plastic wheels. They also have a design board with 44 nail tip shapes. The white plastic design wheel comes in a 12 pack for $15.99. Hope this can help you.

It picks up the polish like you wouldn't believe!(and it leaves less polish flakes to clean up later!)<BR/><BR/>Just my two cents!<BR/>-wixbettyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
