Thank you!

Do you have a pic of the shell tips you did?
Did you create a bead then dip it into your shell? Or did you mix your powder with the shell? I tried both and found mixing the powder and shell easier.

I also bought some shell sheet from NSI, it is similar to crushed shell but its on a self adhesive backing, has anyone tried this? I haven't used it yet!

i dont think i can upload pics yet, but they look very much like yours, i dipped the bead into the shell, havent tried mixing but will now you said its easier, not tried the sheet, let me know how you get on with it!
 
You can upload pics even tho you are not premier geek, they just have to be a small file size.
I am not quite sure how to use the sheet yet. I may post a thread for some inspiration.

Had a look at the galaxy shop yesterday. The pots of shells have gone up to £14.99!! must be cause of all the business you've sent her way!
 
If im in a hurry and want to do crushed shells on my self, i cheat and pre-size and taylor my tips, then apply resin and dip in my crushed shell, dusting off any surplus shell, then adhere to my nail plate. Then i go over with l+p, they look lovely, and its quick and easy when i dont have much time.
 
Hi there

does anyone have any pics of nails with crushed shells and instructions?
 
has anyone used mother of pearl stips with curshed shells
