I actually prefer them if they're going to be in clear bases, it gives me more ideas with pairing and layering, especially with jelly sandwiches!

That's fair! I find myself not using clear bases as often as I should, so I find that I'm a lot more likely to use them if they're in some sort of colored base. Each certainly has its pros/cons, and I'm really interested to see how people use these!

I actually ordered OPI's glitter off and it was free shipping on Amazon, even without prime.  Maybe it was just the seller I picked?

apparently glitter daze has something too but I am still mad at them for the April Fool's prank they pulled and would rather give my money to someone else.

Agreed. I can't support a business who thinks its professional to play a prank like that when there are so many other small businesses out there.

What did they do?

What did they do?

2 days BEFORE April fools, they said they were closing shop forever and offered a 15% off code.

ON April 1, they were like j/k lolz.

A lot of people were mad.  They responded well to that.  They gave prompt refunds where requested and did apologize.

Regardless, it (quite understandably) left a bad taste in many peoples mouths.

What a bizarre thing to do. I would be irritated too.

Yeah to be honest I'm not one of the people who continues to hold it against them (it is a small shop and individuals do make mistakes, and I think they acknowledged that it was a mistake and did their best to fix it, and really, once a mistake is already made, what more can you do?) but I do still view it as bizarre.

For me, its the idea that they would think that's a funny prank to pull in the first place, especially on a professional level, that bothers me, especially since they did it right before April 1st. I appreciate that she apologised and refunded orders where it was warranted, and I hope has learned from that mistake, but I can't bring myself to purchase anything from her as a result.

So cute! If I could convince myself to get into stamping, I'd totally have to get this plate. My husband and daughter would both freak if I had Totoro nails!

I feel a bit 'out of it' on this one. I can identify most of the characters, but there are a fair number I'm still missing... the rabbit with the balloon, the cat? with the upside down hearts? And what's in that lower heart? Feeling a bit behind on pop culture!

 

[Meggpi]

 the cat? with the upside down hearts? 

Are you talking about- 

It's from the Studio Ghibli film "My Neighbor Totoro" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096283/)

A million <3 for Totoro

I don't know if this brand has been mentioned in this thread or not but I love Bubblelina's thermal nail polishes. They smell so good when dry, not to mention they change color under cold/hot conditions.

So what's the deal with Enchanted Polish pre-orders?  Do they open up for an hour an unlimited number of orders and then get everything made after the pre-order window closes, or is there a limit of, say, two hundred bottles, so it's possible they will sell out before the end of the hour?
