Nail Polish Rings

Project of the night. 

My sister is an elementary Phys Ed. teacher and she has a treasure box for when the students are really good! Today she brought me home this "10 Opti-Art Ring" kit because "it seems like something you'd have fun with." .... I guess I was a good girl. SO! I remember seeing people on multiple blogs with rings made out of their favorite nail polish. I decided to do the "Ages 7-97" version with this little kit and I got out my plates and polish and started making rings. So now there are rings for me, both my sisters and my sister's girlfriend. I hope you like them! (PS! I cannot remember who started the polish ring thing, I've seen it around, so if this was your idea first let me know and I'll give you the credit.)  

So cute!  I love the seahorse one!  It looks good in a ring!

I'm also quite the fan of the zebra print!  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Ooohh! I want that kit

This is too neat!!!! Very creative, i'm going to google NOW

What a fantastic idea! That looks so much fun to do!

Found the rings on Amazon.

http://www.amazon.com/Creativity-Kids-10-OptiArt-Rings/dp/B000096Q8G

OMG that's so cheap!!!  I must have!

If anyone else takes a shot at these I'd love to see the results /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I want it too!

I just placed an order on Amazon, I was going to get those rings but then I saw the 25 Mash (a lot of konad dupes) monster nail plate bundle for 17 bucks so I got  that instead, and a toy for my daughter (yay free shipping)

Haha yeah I have those mash plates and the bundle monster plates. good choice. good choice. I think my sister got this ring thing at 5&below for her treasure box at school. I'd look there before you bother ordering it off amazon. 

Instead of making rings out of the kit make pendants. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Hehe yeah I saw the pics of the plates you posted and then I saw how cheap they were on Amazon so I snatched them up!   I just went and checked out that store you mention OMG!  I wish there was one by me /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Everyone says it was Kittentoes from MUA who came up with the idea. She owns a wellknown Etsy store full of these nailpolish jewlery AND wrote a massive tutorial about it.

I love that! They remind me of the mood rings (the shape).  Is the sparkly background your nail polish or do the rings have a metallic finish that you paint over.  Your so creative

I wonder if I could find the rings at Michael's Craft Store or JoAnns? I'd like to try this.

I just saw that kit today at Joann's. I was *this* close to getting it for my niece's birthday.

You should use a Joann coupon and get it for her /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

The "gemstone" as they call it was totally clear, any color is the result of my nail polish and bundlemonster/mash stamping on the flat back part. It seems this kit is available at ACmoore, michaels and JoAnns. I asked my sister and she definitely got it at a 5&below. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I hope they make one by me soon!

Those would make really cute and simple gifts! I work at an elementary school too...you've just given me an idea for my treasure box! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Aww I would have loved to get these as a kid
