I find nothing more annoying than nail varnish that chips the first time I wear it, so I love that gels last up to 4 weeks and without damaging your nails underneath.

However getting them done professionally all the time can be really blooming expensive. After realising what a dent in my bank balance my love affair was having, I decided to see if there was a DIY option. And so I uncovered a brand new obsession. Unfortunately I quickly found out that the gel brands used by the professionals (Gelish, Shellac etc) aren’t available for purchase by us mere mortals. Everywhere I looked you needed a trade card to be allowed to buy them. BOO to that! Refusing to be beaten I kept on searching high and low, and I think that I’ve now not only finally uncovered my perfect formula, but I’ve figured out how to do a DIY glitter manicure too!

The first thing that you’ll need is a UV LED lamp, which cures (hardens) the gel. In terms of the colours, Bluesky Method. The Dapper Bun: DIY Style: How To Make A Birdcage Veil. Back in 2008, I wanted to make a birdcage veil but had trouble finding a tutorial online with clear instructions. I experimented around, came up with this, and decided to document the process with pictures and instructions. Now, there's tons of them on the web and many link back to my original tutorial on my craft blog, but I wanted to repost onto this blog in case any readers were interested (these pics are from when I had short blonde hair!).

Today I’m going to kick off Wedding Wednesday DIY with a tutorial on how to make a birdcage veil.

I have always been in love with birdcage veils, but I never realized there were so many different types. When I initially went dress shopping, the only birdcage veil they had in the store was the bandeau type that just goes straight across your face…and I didn’t like it. Because I was unaware that different types existed, I ended up buying a long veil – and the more I looked at it, the more I couldn’t stand it. I starting to see all sorts of beautiful birdcage veils on Etsy and at other bridal salons, and I just knew I had to have one. Since I had already dropped waaay too much money on a veil I didn’t like, I didn’t want to go drop $200 on another veil, so I decided to try my hand at making one. *Disclaimer: I did NOT make the flower – that is a clip I added on top of the veil* Supplies: French or Russian Netting Scissors Thread Hair comb Needle Optional: Flower or lace. { Pastel } | The Perfect Day by Janine.
