this is why i hate myself for choosing 4 years university over FIDM.
We had orientation at FIDM this morning and guess who stopped by? Joshua Christensen, Oliver Green, and Viktor Luna from Project Runway Season 9!

Design Your Own Decals: Nailing It
Operations associate, Loren, has a thing for nails — and we can’t blame her. We love reading about new finishes and fun techniques, so we thought we’d give her a weekly slot on our blog to wax poetic about all things manicure (and pedicure!) related. Check back every week for Nailing It, Birchbox’s dedicated polish series.
Last week while reading All Lacquered Up, I came across a post on a cool new technique that the nail geniuses at CND developed called River Rocks Decals. Given that I love trying new trends, I decided to give this method a go. Surprisingly, even though it looks rather complicated, it’s actually pretty easy. Here’s how you do it:
