Fimo Nails

The Fimo nail art canes I ordered arrived today and I couldn't wait to try them out :)


I got 100 in a pack from Ebay for £3.49, I chose free postage and it turned up 5 days later. There's a huge variety; flowers, hearts, butterflies, smily faces, stars, fruit, bears, bows, Hello Kitty, a Mario mushroom, skull and crossbones,  and even the American flag :P Some of them are hard to tell what they are so I won't be using them, but the majority of them are good. There are so many, every time I look at them I see one I haven't seen before :)




I decided to try out fimo fruit nails as I'd seen them online a lot. The canes are so detailed, they're about 5cm long and you can get about 80-100 slices out of each one so you won't be running out any time soon! Seeing as this was my first try with it I cut my slices a bit too thick so they didn't stick down very flat and I could feel that they were on my nails, but my next few designs will be using them so I'll get better. I didn't buy a cutting blade with the pack as I have a craft krife which works just as well, but you can get ones specifically for them.



Next I'll be trying out some of the fimo flowers :D
