So this manicure won’t truly help you catch a bear but I did find that my kit cat Teddy Bear’s tail made for a nice contrast in showing off my latest creation…
After applying a base coat, I covered my nails with a swipe of Sally Hansen’s White On. Once semi-dry, I tipped the ends of my claws in OPI’s DS Radiance (this is apparently considered a ‘designer’ polish and runs about $11 – mine was a gift. So any silver will do!) and used Milani Nail Art in Black Sketch to complete the mini masterpiece. The grand finale was a coat of Seche Vite’s Dry Fast Top Nail Coat (best ever in my amateur book) to make this mani last almost a week.
Then I enjoyed using my painted talons as a matching accessory to my wine glasses.

I’m reading these posts in reverse. Another mani-masterpiece?!? You’ll have polish companies knocking on your door in no time!
Haha! You’re so sweet. I’m holding my breath for Chanel to come knocking. I need the colors you showcased this week. Gorge!!!
Totally would hire you to do my nails.
I’ll do them for free if ever we meet!
Uh oh, using Ted’s tail as a photo prop and speculating on painting his claws?!? You are tempting fate you know that right? 🙂
I’m not only tempting fate but the overall quality of my face as it now stands. He swiped at my nose when I got home from work today…must have known what I was up to. Now I have a psychic kitty. Just one more reason to have a reality TV show!
Love it! Always a good choice to match your nails to your drinks!

K – you know I can’t let my cocktails down! 🙂
I hear ya! 😉
Yes, perfect! Very cute.
Thank you! I tried to get my nails around Ted’s cute face but he turned around and provided his tail. So sweet.
I always expect you to lose a finger in a Bear related attack. At least the nail will be perfectly painted when they try and reattach it.
Ha! Here’s hoping the bear doesn’t chip the polish when detaching my finger so my nail polish still looks fabulous when reattached!
Very fun!
Thanks Lady!
Lovely.
Well, thanks Don! I’m thinking of trying to paint Ted’s claws sometime here in the future…
You should dye his paws hot pink and then paint his nails green. He’s be epic looking.
Oh snap. I’m going to search for animal friendly dye immediately!
