  1. Thanks! The candy corn one didn't photograph well in the fading light, but they were both happy with them.

  3. Do I dare let Miranda see this post?? Halloween has passed but I KNOW she'll want me to paint her nails in either design. These are awesome!

  4. Evelyn, for the eyes, I recommend Sinful Colors if you don't already have polishes to use for this type of thing. It's an inexpensive drugstore brand but has good opacity, covering well in one coat, and dries pretty fast. I painted the nail black and waited for it to dry completely. Then, I dipped the end of an eyeliner brush in white polish and used it to make the eyes. I dabbed just a dot of black polish on top for the pupil while the white was still a little wet.
