Cloud 9 Kid Connection:
Nail polish comes in nearly every color you can imagine. Have fun and experiment with layers and patterns. Avoid the stinky nail polish smell and take this project outside on a beautiful summer day.

While the name came in a flash, the business has taken 11 yrs to develop. She believes art experiences add richness to life & provide opportunities to explore & express thoughts, ideas, & feelings. Currently, she is working towards a doctorate in art education. Time with her family is what she enjoys most & her favorite collection is sea glass & driftwood.
