My Fandoms Nail Art Wheel


 Hey everyone! I'm sorry I haven't been around much, I've been pretty busy with PSEO/early college stuff. But most of the registering and such is now behind me, so I'm ready to jump back into blogging! Today I have a new nail art wheel for you all! As you know, I love me some books and TV. Yes, they are probably destroying my social life, but I can't really bring myself to care.

So I painted a nail wheel for some of my TV and book obsessions. Most of these are book fandoms, but I have 3 or 4 TV fandoms in there. So I am missing plenty of TV shows like Supernatural, Breaking Bad, etc. All of these are free hand painted with nail polish. I'm not going to list most of the nail polishes but if you have any questions, feel free to ask me in the comments.


1. Pretty Little Liars -A: I love the TV show and I'm currently reading book #2!
2. American Horror Story: I've watched seasons 1-3 plus like half of season 4. I'm currently rewatching season 2 (which is probably my favorite season).
3. The Vampire Diaries: I've read all the books and seen every episode! This is probably my second favorite TV show behind Supernatural. 
4: Beautiful Creatures: I've read all the books and seen the movie. The nail art is supposed to show the fight between the light and the dark, and a moon. 


5. Heroes of Olympus: This book series by Rick Riordan is one of my favorites! It's a middle grade series where the main characters are demigods (half greek god/half human) and they are trying to save the world. 
6. If I Stay: I am so sorry for this sad excuse for a cello. It doesn't even look anything like a cello. But I have read If I Stay and the sequel Where She Went. I've also seen the movie!
7. Shatter Me: This nail art is based of the Shatter Me trilogy by Tahereh Mafi. I have read the first two books.
8. The Infernal Devices: The spin off series of the Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare. This series is probably my 3rd favorite series of all time. On the nail is the rune for parabatai.


9. The Percy Jackson Series: Another amazing middle grade series by Rick Riordan. I've watched both of the movies as well, but only liked the first one. Don't even talk to me about the second. 
10. The Fault In Our Stars: Tears. Crying. Sorrow. I've had my heart broken by the book and the movie. 
11. Vampire Academy: My second favorite book series by Richelle Mead. I have read the whole series and watched the movie. 
12. The Mara Dyer Trilogy: This is based of the Mara Dyer trilogy by Michelle Hodkin. I am in love with this trilogy and it is one of my most recent favorites. 


13. Harry Potter: I don't know if I am even allowed to say that I am in the HP fandom because I have only read one book. I have seen some of the movies. But I absolutely adored the first book and can't wait to read the second. 
14. The Mortal Instruments: This is beautiful 6 book series by Cassandra Clare. Shown is the rune for angelic power. 
15. Divergent: I have read all of the books (including the companion Four) and seen the first movie. I hope to see the second movie asap! This is supposed to be the dauntless symbol but I kind of failed.
16. Bloodlines Series: Say hello to my favorite series of all time! The Bloodlines series is by Richelle Mead and is a spin off series of the Vampire Academy Series. Shown is a golden lily. 
17. It's Kind Of A Funny Story: I have the book and seen the movie. They were both so beautiful. 
18. Hunger Games: I guess I only got half of the symbol in this picture. If you want to see it in its full beauty, look at first picture. I have read all of the books and seen all of the movies and adored them.
