(Press samples and affiliate links ahead!)

Hello!

Today we're going to look at another of Winstonia's new holiday plates, this time their The North Pole plate. It's included in the video I did:

And here's a close look at the plate:

Winstonia The North Pole Plate

If you're in the mood for something cute, whimsical, and fun, this is the plate for you. My personal favorite image is the Santa stuck in the chimney, and I love the little house, but everything here is fun.


Hey, how big are them thar images?

They're all different sizes, but that should give you an idea.


Hey, how do they stamp??

Nice and purty...:)


For my first sample manicure, I started with a base of Zoya Levi and The Lady Varnishes Fairy Queen, then covered them both in Jindie Nails Just Elfing Around. Then I triple-stamped the images for color and dimension, first with Messy Mansion Carbon, then with Messy Mansion Forest or Red-y Or Not depending, then finally Messy Mansion Chalk:

I adore this mani--I love the sense of humor too the Santa in the chimney, and I love how simple these images are t work with.


For my second mani, I decided to make snowglobe nails, and I'm going to show you two versions. First is the full-on snowglobe nails; I used Spellbound Nails Silver Bells for the base on naked nails and sandwiched my stamping in between so it looks like glitter falling around in a snowglobe. I used China Glaze There's Snow One Like You on the tips and the thumb to make the bottom part of the snowglobe. I stamped with Messy Mansion Forest, Red-y Or Not, and Carbon:

I put together a tutorial on how to get this look:

If you don't like texture polish and you want something a bit simpler, here's a version without the white polish:

What do you think? Does it look like a snowglobe? Which do you prefer, the simpler version, or the version with the white polish?


You can find Winstonia's plates in their store; use my code MICH10 for 10% off your order. You can also find the plate on Amazon if that's easier, but you don't get the discount that way.
