White Nails for Newtown

In lieu of the terrible tragedy in CT (an elementary school shooting where 26 people- 20 were kids- were killed, for those of you who don't live here in the US and haven't heard the news...), many nail bloggers have been creating white manicures to promote peace and commemorate the lives that were lost.

I know that most people posted yesterday, but I was very busy, and really wanted to participate. Here's my design.

 Once again, I'm using my 3D nail flowers which I absolutely love! When I was thinking of a white design, they immediately came to mind.

 I love the look of them all together with the plain white nails. A very simple, yet elegant and pretty design.

If only it weren't because of such a horrid event... I can't believe someone could be so cruel as to hurt innocent little children... The stories and pictures have been all over Facebook, and it's crazy to see. The only good I can find is that people are banding together. That's what this mani is all about; everyone needs to work together to make our home safer and more peaceful.

 I just counted the flowers on my ring finger, and there were 19. I wish I had thought to squeeze on a 20th to remember the number of children...

I hope this terrible event will remind you of the importance of peace and the uselessness of violence! Be sure to spend some time with those you love...

And to the families affected in CT, our thoughts, prayers, and deepest sympathy are with you... R.I.P. little ones, you're with God now!!!!
