Here is the pin that inspired us on Pinterest.
This is how we put it together…

First of all sorry for any confusion caused – we accidentally deleted the original post – argh! So here we are re posting 🙂
This is our Pinteresting challenge #7 for the Pin It and Do It Challenge. The pin that inspired us on Pinterest is Mermaid Slipper Nails by Katy at Nailed It. Check out the tutorial its heaps easy.
So here’s how we started…a metallic green base with pink glitter polish.

We decided to put the glitter part at the tip of the nail. In the tutorial the glitter part is at the bed of the nail. And here’s the end result…What do you think?

This is our Pinteresting challenge #5 for the Pin It and Do It Challenge.
The pin that inspired us on Pinterest is Polka Dot Nails.
So we gave it a go…we used a BBQ skewer to make the dots…Shout out to Michelle for doing Amour’s nails!
Polka Dot – The process
And here is our finished version…
Red and White Polka Dots!
We loved it so much we did it a little more in different colour variations – which one is your favourite? We also found an easier way to do the dots via this pin – DIY Nail Art Tools.
Polka Dots of Many Colours!
We are getting just a little obsessed with the different nail art tutorials out there – Just look at Amour’s new additions to her nail polish collection!
Nail Polish Box Set
And because that wasn’t enough…
But wait, there’s more…
So you will see us start to put some of our own tutorials together – it’s just too much fun!
Take care, until next time…keep restyling!

This is our Pinteresting challenge #4 for the Pin It and Do It Challenge.
The pin that inspired us on Pinterest is Nailed It – Bleeding Blue. Check out Nailed It – they have some pretty awesome designs – Easily could get lost in there 🙂 Also their tutorials are very simple to read and look like heaps of fun!!!
And here is our finished version…
Love ❤ Notes Style
The three colours used were light peach, red and black. We love the design and it is relatively easy to do as you don’t really need a steady hand – the messier the better. To do the lines we used an old applicator from a liquid eye liner.
Next time we would change the colours. The black we used on the tips was just too heavy for our liking.
What colour combinations would you want to use? Next time we’re thinking yellow, aqua and chocolate brown.
Take care, until next time…keep restyling!

If you haven’t already been on Pinterest yet – be warned – its sooooooo addictive! We have spent many hours scrolling through and finding things we love. This regular feature will be us attempting a variety of projects that have captured our Pinterest! Hehehe!
These projects won’t necessarily always be restyles but we will try 🙂 Check us out and follow us on pinterest – lovenotesstudio
So the first project we will attempt a combination of two pins that we found. It is to make a little girl’s tutu skirt. We found a pin for a tutu dress and a pin for making a tutu skirt. We liked the skirt design and preferred the crochet headband waist – hence the combination of the pins.
And here’s the end result…what do you think?
Thanks to Mischa for modelling the tutu for us!
Take care, until next time…keep restyling!

Happy Monday everyone!
This will be a weekly feature where we will be calling out for our lovely readers to inspire us! We will post some pictures of an item that needs some restyling – then you can inspire us by posting comments about what you think we should do with it 🙂
We will then work with the inspirations you have provided and post what has happened – Grand Success or Epic Fail 😉
So with our first post in this feature – here is our item. It’s a pair of pajama ‘satin’ bottoms we got at the Fairfield Markets Swap Meet. We just love the pattern and the playful colours!
So tell us…What do you think we should do with this discarded item? Inspire us with your ideas of how we can restyle this into something new.
Take care, until next time…keep restyling!
