Hi, my name is Lesley Penney and I’m a 34 year old nail polish addict. The addiction began shortly before a friend’s wedding when I decided to paint my nails, and it’s all gone crazy since then. I discovered the amazing world of nail stamping, and thought it was something that could make my nails look very fancy with little effort. I was lucky that stamping came easily to me, though I’m currently not amazing with straight lines. I talked about starting a nail blog for about three months, and I’ve finally gotten to it! The only problem now is leaving my nails dry for long enough to actually write about what’s on them.
I am a displaced Canadian living in sunny California. I am learning to draw comics in my spare time, but I’m having some difficulties (Comics is hard, yo!). I’m happily married, and we have two feline masters who are of the opinion that 8am is entirely too late to have breakfast, and would we get up and feed them already. My husband is very indulgent when I tell him I “need” more stamping plates, and generally gives in after a day or two of puppy eyes.
Lemon Lacquer is some justification for all this nail polish I’ve bought, and also a very good excuse to change my nail polish more often than “whenever it chips.” I’ll be posting about my adventures in nail art, swatches, and nail of the day type posts. Please feel free to email me with any questions, suggestions, or comments at lemonlacquer@gmail.com.
