[ChuckNorrisNinjas]

I could probably do this on my left hand...But so impossible with my right XD hehe

[meliney]

@ChuckNorrisNinjas its like learing how to write. justtakes practice. more you do better you get :)

[hwkman12]

To mr the dimonds and stuff was a little too much for her nails u know to keep it simple

,

[NanAlychic22]

What's wrong with her thumb? In every video she has the thumb nail short. It's ugly.

[biscwits1999]

when you just did the checkers i thought omg it looks amazing just like that and then you go and put the flower and the jewels on top and make it look even more amazing. jealous of your nail talent!!! and i have a question ... how long does it stay on for?? and how do you get it off??? do you have to pick i off bit by bit or just take it off with nail polish remover...

[meliney]

@biscwits1999 if i dont pick on them, it normally lasts a week for me. you can use nail polish remover to take it off. soak it or if you use some force with your nails it will come off also. then you can use remover to clean the rest.

[animalluver37]

can you reuse the fimo flowers? please reply!

[jaylene123100]

the advertiesment i thought that was debby ryan not bella thorne!!

[GagaLover2106]

Wow, and I thought I did nails the best! O_O

[amythoudsan]

I tried this and the beads didn't even fall off :) I'm getting good

[TheIsabellaSmiles]

Sportscrazy26 you don't put it on the flower

[Metalbutterfly1]

Thats a little much! It seems like it would fall off to easy.n get cought in your hair if you had to put it up.but i guess it is pretty just for photos.

[colorfulcrayon57]

I mean fall off easily

[colorfulcrayon57]

How long would the stuff on your nail stay on? It seems they would fall on pretty easy.

[cookierocks1000]

don't you think that is to much for 1 nail

[sportscrazy26]

y dont you put topcoat over the flower?

[RichTurtle32]

Cool :-)

[RichTurtle32]

Nice :-)

[strawberryummm]

Do u recycle the rhinestones?...or can u?

[meliney]

@strawberryummm gets abit dirty after a few days. its so cheap anyways. i dont even bother picking it up if i drop it on the floor :)

[RichTurtle32]

Nice :-)

[virgingirl26]

Cute and in gald i subscribe to ur channel

[dovlecel21]

Thanks for another great idea, how to use those beautiful rose i win from u.

[raven123xox]

Onee more thing how do you stick the rhinestones on your nails!?!?

[raven123xox]

Meliney please answer this! You know your website right. I want to buy the Dotting Tools (Color) but it says you can only get it in Australia? I don't know! Can you or somebody else explain me that asap. I live in USA btw.

[meliney]

@raven123xox i can post the dotting tools and everything else to the USA. only thing i dont post internationally is the nail polish. so yeah go ahead if you wanna order. if the nail polish is still wet then stick the rhinestone on then go over with top coat to secure it. if the bottom layer nail polish is dry then go over the area with top coat then stick the rhinesone on. and go over with top coat again.

[raven123xox]

@meliney Thank you :).

[Speedoticket]

[Morenaxb21]

Hi there!! When is your next tut?? I'm so excited I can't get enough! I especially love the collections. Thanks and keep up the great vids!

[meliney]

@Morenaxb21 will be up tomorrow :)

[oceanblu85]

Absolutely gorgeous! But how do u get the flowers to stay? I had bought them from your website and when I put them on, they popped right off only 10 minutes later :(

[meliney]

@oceanblu85 did you put top coat or nail glue all around the flower as well? it helps to make it stay secure.

[oceanblu85]

@meliney I used a topcoat underneath so it sticks, then I put a topcoat around it as well. I guess I just don't have luck with pretty nail stuff lol

[goodmonkey71]

AWSOME! Thanks for sharing. Does regular fingernail polish remover work when it's time to remove the gems/flowers etc? Also, do you have a tutorial for cutical removal/care. Your cuticles look so wonderful.

[meliney]

@goodmonkey71 yes it will come off with nail polish remover whether you use top coat or nail glue. it can be desolved with remover. i dont really do anything for my cuticles. sometimes when it gets too dry i put some cuticle oil.

[Sundriesandetc]

that light green is so gorgeous

[Cherrylover127]

I love it , BUT what else can you use instead of of a dotting tool for filling in the checkers ?

[meliney]

@Cherrylover127 try a toothpick. or a pen tip.

[sportscrazy26]

y dont you put a top coat over the fimo flower? btw, great vid! :)

[oxRACH333Lxo]

omg! that is so clever for the checkers!!! i'mma go do that right now with black and orange >:]

[angelmyluves]

Love it!<3 but,hw long will that big rose stays?

[utoobr10]

Love the title of this video! Its such a whimsical image of fairies playing checkers!

[glittergirljmm]

Awesome. :)

[Omgitsmaggie1]

Wow! I love this one! :) it looks great and it's not as complicated as I thought

[mevemichaud]

I don't like your thumb

[makeupbytae]

where did u get ur jewels and decals????

[meliney]

@makeupbytae they are available on my website meliney.com

[missJOANcherie]

so springy nails...

[mysticalwish]

They are sooooooooooo pretty

[twizzler65]

SOOO trying this outtt!!!!

Btw, Why are some people saying that one top coat causes birth defects??

i forgot the name of it

[meliney]

@twizzler65 maybe some top coat still has toxic ingredients in it. check for the big 3 when buying nail polish. make sure they dont have formaldehyde, toluene and DBP

[0Girlgear0]

Do u ever take a shower When your nails have the fimo stuff on it? Does it come off?

[meliney]

@0Girlgear0 i shower everyday and its still on it. but still you gotta be careful and not be too rough on the decals.

[ChoiAerin]

Totally love it! Gonna try doing it maybe with a blue or purple colour! :D

[nancyvlp]

adorable!

[MetteMedicine]

@ahsnaps - I could, but I don't like bying stuff from eBay, and the stuff from meliney is much more reliable. I'm from Denmark, and I got my package within a week I think. That's pretty good. I've been so happy with it all. :)

[meliney]

@jjade11b that is a pretty name :)

[DylanLindsay5]

You should make a video of how to get all those jewels and stuff off your nails.

[meliney]

@DylanLindsay5 most ppl have trouble keeping them on hahaha. i normally scratch the big stuff off, and use polish remover to take off the rest.

[icecreambear22]

Such an adorable design!

[PikitaFujimiya]

Muy bonito! :D

[fullmetalmisti7]

love it!

[elimaruca75]

[6158bubbles]

[xFashionMDx]

What camera do you use? How do you set up to record these videos?

[meliney]

@xFashionMDx its a canon camera, i wrote down the model on my channel page. i have it screwed onto a bendable tripod and latch it onto a coffee cup stand so its facing down,

[1maquillage]

I love it!

[M070k0Chan]

you said your flower is a fimo flower but those are usually flat pieces yours don't look flat what kind of flower is that?

[meliney]

@M070k0Chan its the same material just madeinto a 3d shape.

[M070k0Chan]

@meliney OH! I see :) It's super pretty xD

[ChelseaWelsee1]

LOVE IT!



[chantels60]

Really love this design!!

[peaceloveyinyang]

[meliney]

@peaceloveyinyang yep, just dont loose it and yuou can use it again, its pretty tough.

[fantageisawesome194]

[rosepaw12]

Awesomeness!!!!!!!!!

[rosepaw12]

That was such a pretty design!

[CarisaGaul]

Wow. So cool, but gosh, that had to have taken a LONG time to dry.

[meliney]

@CarisaGaul not really, i'm just as impatient as the next gal. poshe top coat dries super fast

[tbloodawesome]

I like this design, it's really cool:)

[PartyPopParty]

do you only accept paypal?

[HanaShiima]

thats a little bit too much with the stones

[luvindemnails]

Very cute!

[y3rlo]

i like it. i wonder what this would look like with other colors. :)

[isaheartjesus]

so cute!!

[1XxCherryxX1]

didn't the flower broke or get lost if you do something like go with your hand throug your hair O.o

it looks really cute ^.^

[meliney]

@1XxCherryxX1 i use my ring finger the least, so it doesn't bother me with things on it.

[Mentalongsm]

4 people are green with envy (HAHA ME FUNNY!)

[PrincessCeuks]

So pretty & glamour with the flower...

[kianawr]

I like but I hate that you can not purchase nail polish if your are outside of the country. Love the design, though.

[meliney]

@kianawr where you from? there is a retail list under my konad faq video

[fictionwriter04]

so creative! i love it! thank-you :)

[Mentalongsm]

I always get so happy when I see that you've uploaded a new video :D

[MetteMedicine]

This is SOO pretty!

As soon as I can afford it, I'm bying more stuff from your website to create this look!

[ahsnaps]

@MetteMedicine or you could go to ebay

[KrienSama]

looks really pretty, I like the checkers alone already but with the flower and such it looks very cute :D

too bad I have like really really small nails and I wouldn't really have enough space for all that XD

love it!

[iHornpipe]
