Little O/IT'S A BOY needle marble! Congrats Jacki/Adventures In Acetone!!!

I'm going to interrupt my current Doctor Who nail art broadcasting (sayyys what!?) to share a little CONGRATULATIONS post....

My wonderful wonderful friend Jacki (Adventures In Acetone) and her wonderful wonderful family have welcomed their newest member just a few days ago... baby boy Owen, or as I like to call him Little O! I don't usually like babies, even though I have one (hehe) but Little O is such a handsome little sweetheart (already like his super cool big sister Hailey)!

So, how could I not join in the celebration our one group is having in honor of Little O... themed baby boy/Owen nails/art! I decided on a nice lapiz blue and a creamy pastel yellow needle marble!

I started off with 2 VERY THICK coats of Essie Lapiz of Luxury with BIG THICK drops of Essence Mellow Yellow to marble together. I didn't really go off of any blog tutorial which in hindsight I probably should have, it would have made this 1st needle marbling experience MUCH MUCH easier! I am sure I could have gotten much more fun designs and I wanted to do a nice water slide decal for little O as an accent nail but I really had no idea what to do! So I left my marbling as is and topped it off with Nubar Diamont top coat.

Sorry I don't have one of those fancy macro lenses XD

Not TERRIBLE for a 1st needle marbling attempt but I cannot wait to get better, what a challenge!

Check out my friends celebrating and welcoming Little O with their baby boy/owen themed nails!
