Where Are My Challenge Posts? AKA How I'm Participating This Year


Hi everyone! Today is the first day of the 31 Day Challenge 2016, and I'm so excited to see
what everyone comes up with! Personally, I've decided to do things a little differently this year. With all the changes in my job, my life, the scope of blogging and social media... It seemed best to try something new.

So, my plan for this year is to do all of the challenge prompts on sets of plastic nail tips and film insta-tutorials at the same time.

Here's why:
  1. I don't make enough video content, and this will force me to do it. I love watching everyone else's videos, and now I will actually be contributing!
  2. I get to keep the nail tips after I'm done and add them to my sample board at work for clients!
  3. Working on a nail tip is closer to working on a client than if I were to do the nail art on my own hands. I'll get more practice!
  4. Everything I wear on my own hands gets thrashed at work.
Between you and me, I am feeling a bit guilty about not sticking to my usual challenge format. But I'm trying not to be too hard on myself about it, and I know this will still be plenty challenging. I hope you will enjoy the tutorials just as much as my old types of challenge posts! 

As for what you can expect here on ye olde blog...
⋗ I added an Instagram widget above the main post area which will take you right to the Insta posts (you can view them all regardless of if you have an Instagram account or not).
⋗ I will also likely do a few summary-style roundup posts throughout the duration of the challenge.

And finally...
Not into Instagram? The posts will also be pushed to my Facebook and Tumblr.

Thank you, and enjoy!
