Christmas Cookie Nails

Author: marta // Category: Cult Nails, Dollar Nail Art, Gals, OPI

Hello Lovely Ladies,

Today I am off to the second annual cookie exchange that my sister and I have organized. It is promising to be a good one as 13 Ladies have confirmed that they will attend. I have prepared over five dozen cookies for this evening!!! I look forward to spending the evening with friends and family (before the busy Christmas food preps start), and bringing 12 different types of treats home for the holidays

But… such a festive event calls for festive nails

If you have not been a part of a cookie exchange, the premise is simple: bake one style of cookie, and make enough to give about 5 to each attending person; in return, each of the attending people (who also each baked a large batch of cookies) will give you their cookies to take home. Fun AND yummy right!?

I may or may not bring my travel kit of nail polish, stamps and accessories to this evening’s events Why not paint some lovely nails for the Holiday season also right!? Sip on some wine, catch up and have a fun Ladies’ night!

Pinky and Thumb: Cult Nails (Feb 2013 release) wax finish black

I know you are dying to know…

What cookies did I bake do you ask?

I got the recipe for these Peanut-Butter-Chocolate-Pretzel treats on PINTEREST

What do you think of my NOTD Christmas Cookie-exchange Skittlette look?

Have you ever taken part in a cookie exchange? Did you have a good experience?

How are your holiday preparations going?

THANK YOU FOR READING!

That is sooooo pretty ! It is sweet but festive at the same time (with the stamping design ^^) ! And there is glitter so it beautiful ! ^^

I never heard about any cookie exchange ! (Maybe in France, it doesn’t exist… I don’t know… ^^’) But it must be so coooool ! You can taste some cookies you would never taste, maybe. And you can make someone discover a new recipe. ^^ I love this idea.

At least, Holiday can begin ! ^^ We have not done our christmas tree yet… :/ But it will be there for Christmas day ! ^^ And I will make the yule log for Christmas eve so I can’t wet ! (Some days, I really have the impression to be a 5-year-old girl ! lol)

Your skittles are just as awesome as your skittlettes! Love the combo of pink and black. Soft and yet, edgy!

  Awh, thank you!!!!
  This was actually a skittlette look (as my thumb was identical to the pinky finger) but the thumb never got to see the spotlight in the photos and so it looks like a skittles look
  I too really enjoy this pairing of colors

Those square glitters, so edgy and fun! And yay for glitter ♥.

  Thank you Deborah,
  They are also nice because they are flat… so if you are a picker, they wouldn’t get in the way

Your nails are beautiful. I have never taken part in a cookie exchange, but it sounds delicious. I am starting today off by taking my son to see snow at a park, it’s hard to come by in FL.

  Thank you
  I hope that one day you take part in one (or organize one)… they are really really neat!
  It is these ‘simple’ moments that can make the season so special. I hope you had a relaxing and memorable stroll through the park with your son

This skittles manicure is perfect for the occasion, I love how you combined all the elements, glitter, stamping and the rhinestones…. I would love to try those cookies, I bet they are DELICIOUS!!!

  Thank you! I’m so glad you like it. The glitter was my ‘special’ nail
  I painted nails at the party and a few girls used these colors together also
  I invite you to London- I will save you a box of them
