DOTS OF FUN CONTEST ENTRIES

Author: marta // Category: Uncategorized

EDIT: VOTING IS NOW CLOSED.

I want to start this post by saying “WOW!”

This is my second time hosting a contest, and this idea of a dotted manicure holding a random/silly/funny/odd object was one “I” thought was cool, but I did NOT expect such warm feedback, such eagerness to participate, and such AWESOME entries! All I have to say is I’m so glad that I am not the one who has to make the decision on who wins

A GIANT THANK YOU to all who participated in this contest!!! Your manicures are AMAZING and you sure got creative with the props!

There are TWO $25.00 shopping sprees to the BornPretty Store (generously sponsored by the BornPretty Store):

ONE $25.00 BP Store shopping spree will go to the person with the most votes for the Best dotted manicure

ONE $25.00 BP Store shopping spree will go to the person with the most votes for the Best prop

I have listed the Contest Entries in the order that I received them.

Hi Tinka,
I am using a new voting system and it glitched on me. I hope to have fixed the problem this morning. Please try again and I am SO very sorry about the problem.

I love simplicity so my best mani is 11, and I love chewbacca!!! Haha so best prop would be #1. It was sooooo hard to choose, they are all so beautifi and funny!!

All of these women went above and beyond the call to come up with impressive and unique dotticures! I was smiling the entire time admiring their nails, creativity, and sense of humour.

Now for my votes! (It was hard to choose because the talent was enormous.)

Best Dotticure: #17

(Carita, I absolutely adore the colour combination and design you’ve come up with. There’s something very retro about it! )

Best Prop: #2

(Haha, Carmela, you cracked me up…and it was also a great choice because of how colourful the sanitary pads were!)
