You're charger needs an update. It needs to be personalized and not just that plain boxy white charger everyone has....
                       .......
               You need a glittery contraption that will not only bring energy to your phone, but to bedazzle your life and make sure everyone knows it's yours. Okay, that's a bit of an exaggeration, but I do have a nice way to add a bit of an update to your phone charger =)

First, pull the cord out and lay this part on a flat surface.
Get any anil polish that you like best and paint it! It's best if you use something sparkly or at least some sort of sparkle on top, or else it will look more painted on.
While the object above dries, move on to the smaller parts.
Make sure you don't paint on the cord or the silver parts inserted into your phone/computer.
 
After you've touched up the paint, give it a nice clear coat.
What do you think?

I've been feeling like painting with nail polish lately. Change something up, you know? I'm getting better at painting my fingernails, but I have trouble with pedicures.  I decided to make a tutorial on an amateur pedicure that looks like its from someone much higher up there (hopefully!)
STEP ONE
Trim, smooth, and paint your nails. Don't worry if you
go outside the lines, that is what the next step is for. Just make sure you get a smooth foundation.

(sorry for bad  picture) using a remover soaked q-tip, touch up your nail. (Horrible nails for emaphsis)
Better! But still not what we're going for....
So we repeat. By using this process, you get a smooth look where as if you merely focusing on staying inside the lines would result in a thin, rather bumpy pedicure. (Tip-don't make it too thick or it will rub off)
Use a sparkly polish on top of that (I do realize some of it is on my toe, while taking a picture it kinda got mashed on it). The sparkle looks great and proffessional while hiding some of the minor mistakes (uneven base, etc) Add touch ups until nice and sparkly, then put a clear coat on top.

Done!
