The other day on twitter @ColourCoated (check out her blog here)
asked if anyone was interested in participating in a Blue Nails for Autism Awareness project.
April 2nd is World Autism Awareness Day
Everyone is encouraged to wear blue in order to raise awareness, encourage early diagnosis and early intervention and to celebrate the lives of those that we care about who have autism.
A family friend of mine has a 6 year old boy with autism, and with my love for blue nail polish
I had to participate!
Throughout the month of April I will do a series of Blue Nails for Autism Awareness month.
For my first Blue mani I have incorporated China Glaze's For Audrey, a very pale blue.
I was inspired to do this mani after Steph's Closet St. Patrick's Day tutorial
This is my first attempt at a plaid mani and while it took a while, I think
it came out decent. Mind you, photographed is my left hand & unlike many of you
that is my dominant hand!
I was shocked my lines came out as straight as they did considering this was done with my right hand!
Here are the products I used. Some of the stripes were done with Sally Hansen's Nail
Art Pen. Without this baby the mani probably would have been a disaster!
Most of the hotizontal lines were done with a striper from The Icing.
Are you wearing Blue for Autism Awareness Day?
