NICE....I have a lot of Nail Geeky tips like that. My #1 favorite to use when I am giving my seminars....
Spaghetti as a Rhinestone Pick up Stick. You just dip one end in water for a few seconds to get the starch sticky. Then you can pick up rhinestones one after the other for a long time before needing to redip. Also, you know how when you get top coat or resin on a stick to pick up stones it never works again? Well with the Spaghetti, you just snap off the end, wet the new end and you are back in action!!! I never leave the country without a baggie of spaghetti in my kit! haha. :) Elaine On Mon, Mar 9, 2009 at 11:45 AM, Marsha Rubino <[email protected]> wrote: > Great tips, Elaine.
