100 followers International giveaway + my very own nail workspace

DANSK, se længere nede.
If you want to see photos of where I do my nails, check them out farthest below...

I love each and every one of you that chooses to follow me, and the ones that truly amazes me and makes me happy at heart are those of you who chooses to follow me, not because of a giveaway, but because you most of the time like what you see!
To show my appreciation I came up with rules for the giveaway that secure that one of you is going to be the winner, and new members still have a very good chance!

To have a chance to win, you need to:
– follow me by Google Friend Connect (right side menu at the top)
AND
– if you have a blog (polish or nail art) with a visible blog list, my blog should be on it
AND
– your user name should be among the names on “My precious commentators” (right side menu mid side, and it counts each time you leave a comment in a post) – PLEASE NOTE: If I get the feeling you just copy & paste the same comment and randomly add it a lot within a short time span, your user name will be excluded, just like excluded my own!
OR
– your username should among the names in the “Top 10 members” (right side menu lower mid side) IMPORTANT: You need to be logged in via Google friend Connect to be counted!
If your name appears on both lists, it counts as two chances.
May 15 during the day Danish time the time is up, and I’ll let a software (or maybe my husband) draw a lucky winner among these 30 names of either:
a gift certificate in an onlinie/eshop of your choice (with a safe check out) with the value of 200 Danish Kroner – at the moment eual to 35-36 US Dollar, 26-27 Euro's or 22-23 Pound Sterling. If you have a PayPal account (or a Danish back account) I also can transfer the money, if you want to shop in a “real” shop close by, or simply prefer to have the money for a future buy
OR
Glitter Gal Lizard Belly 15ml (the new big bottle) + a little “something” shipped from me to your address.
If the winner doesn’t want the prize, I’ll draw another winner.
So IF you know you are away/not checking email in the days after May 15, please send me an email telling me so!
Good luck!

DANSK:
Hvis du vil se billeder af, hvor jeg laver min nail art, så kig nederst i indlægget!

Jeg værdsætter hver enkelt af jer, der vælger at følge mig, højt! Og de af jer, der gør mig utroligt glad og overrasket, er de af jer, der følger mig, ikke på grund af en giveaway, men fordi i det meste af tiden kan li’ hvad jeg laver!
For at understrege, hvor meget det betyder, har jeg valgt regler for denne 100 læsere giveaway, der tilgodeser jer, men stadig gør det muligt for nye medlemmer at være med!

For at have en chance for at vinde, skal du:
– følge mig via Google Friend Connect (menuen til højre foroven)
OG
– hvis du har en blog vedr. neglelak eller nail art med en synlig blogliste, skal min blog være på den
OG
– dit brugernavn skal være blandt navnene på “My Precious Commentators” (menuen til højre, midt på, den tæller hver gang du skriver en kommentar til et af mine indlæg). BEMÆRK: Hvis jeg ser at du bare kopierer den samme kommentar og tæppebomber forskellige indlæg på kort tid, så bliver dit bruger navn ekskluderet, ligesom jeg har ekskluderet mit eget!
ELLER
– dit brugernavn skal være blandt ”top 10 members” (menuen til højre lidt under midten) VIGTIGT: du skal være logget på via Google Friend Connect, for at den tæller dit besøg.
Hvis dit navn forekommer på begge lister, tæller det med to gange!

Den 15. maj er det i løbet af dagen slut, og derefter vil jeg lade en software (eller min mand) trække lod blandt de 30 navne, og vinderen kan vælge mellem enten:
et gavekort på 200 danske kroner (eller vekslet til den ønskede valuta) til den online shop du ønsker, hvor det er muligt at købe gavekort på en sikker måde, alternativt kan jeg overføre 200 til din danske bankkonto, hvis du vil handle lokalt eller vente med at bruge pengene til senere
ELLER
Glitter Gal Lizard Belly + en lille overraskelse sendt fra mig til dig.
Hvis vinderen ikke ønsker at modtage gaven, trækker jeg lod igen.
Derfor er det en god ide at orientere mig, hvis du ved du ikke er online/tjekker email i dagene efter den 15. maj.
Held og lykke!

This is one part (we do have another "normal" part with sink, spice, dishwasher and fridge, where we cook) of our kitchen and here I do my nails, and this is EXACTLY as messy as it looks on a typical day when I have done nails. I work standing, because that is easiest after the neck and shoulder surgeries. I'm a brushacohlic, (there are more in one of the tiny acryl drawers) and have bought way more than I need, but I like to have some to choose from and experiment with. As you can see everything is within reach, and even if it looks chaotic I know where to find what. I know you probably want to know that the thingy on top of my box with arylic colors is, it's my secret weapon helping my old eyes when I do fine details. It's an OptiVisor (5), that enlarges everything 2½ times (but gives a very short focal depth); jewelers use them. On top of the fridge one of the cats often sleep, that's why there is a pillow. Anything else you wonder about - ask...
Dette er en del af vores køkken, (lavet i forb. med ombygning, vi har også en "normal" del med vask, komfur, køleskab og opvaskemaskine, hvor vi laver mad) og her leger jeg med nail art, og det er PRÆCIS ligeså rodet som det typisk ser ud, når jeg har ordnet negle. Jeg arbejder stående, efter opreationer i nakke og skuldre er det det letteste for mig. Jeg er en penselnarkoman og har langt flere, end jeg har brug for (der er flere i en af de små acrylskuffer), men jeg elsker at have noget at vælge imellem og eksperimentere med. Som du kan se, er alt indenfor rækkevidde, og selvom det ser kaotisk ud, så ved jeg hvor jeg skal finde hvad. jeg gætter på, at du gerne vil vide hvad tingesten ovenpå boksen med akrylfarverne er, det er min hemmelige våben og hjælp til mine gamle øjne, når jeg maler fine detaljer. Det er en OptiVisor (5), der forstørrer 2½ gange (men det giver en meget begrænset dybdeskarphed), din guldsmed har måske en. øverst på køleskabet er der en pude, fordi vores katte elsker at sove deroppe. Hvis der er andet du undrer dig over, så spørg :)

  1. Spændende at se din neglelak-arbejdsplads! Men sig mig, hvordan kan I undvære så meget skuffe-plads i køkkenet? Mine skabe og skuffer i køkkenet er godt fyldt op (rydde op? nej nej :)

    Også en spændende give-away, jeg kunne finde finde maaange hjemmesider, hvor jeg kunne bruge 200 kr på neglelakker :) Uha, drømmer allerede :)

    1. Hej Louise - hehehe, kan godt forstå du spørger, derfor har jeg indsat dette i teksten ovenstående: (vi har også en anden del med vask, konfur, køleskab og opvaskemaskine, hvor vi laver mad).
      Vi byggede om for nogle år siden og besluttede at lave endnu en plads med vask, så flere kan væe i gang samtidigt :)

  3. Thank you for an opportunity!

    It's so unusual to see nail polishes in the kitchen, but I like how your place is done! :)

    P.S. I wonder how many cats do you have? :)

    SvarSlet
    Svar
    1. Yup, I do a lot of things in the kitchen, my laptop is here most of the time too. We did some changes and remodeled it some years ago, and it's a very large kitchen, so I can leave my stuff out, and I most of the time do, it's my private corner of the kitchen.
      We have two cats, Findus and Smilla, a smooth dachshund, Ida, 2 Gordon Setters, Senta and Enya and a smooth German Vorsteh, Fanny :)

    1. Thank you, Paulina. Yes it's super cool, I love it. You are so right about the light - I have full spectrum light over the table, and huge windows/doors in each end of that part, so it's bright and nice!

  9. I love all the bright light in your kitchen/nail painting area. I moved to a new apartment about two and a half years ago, and was so much happier and active because I have a tremendous amount of light coming into my living area throughout the entire day. It's really an important thing, I think!

    ALSO: I spy your domos! So cute!

    SvarSlet
    Svar
    1. Hahaha, I just enlarged the photo with the domos- please tell me that you posed them like that on purpose, like they are having a conversation! It's adorable.

      Slet
    2. Yes, I too thrive the best in a well lit/light environment, the full spectrum light I have in the office and over the other kitchen table too, it's great.
      And regarding the Domo's - I did NOT arrange them that way, they are little chatterboxes chatting each others and mine ears off LOL And this evening is even worse, the Zebra Domo arrived, so now they all are repeating what they told earlier - I have to go to bed soon to get some peace ;) - and basically it's ALL your fault hahahaha

  14. AMAZING work space! I absolutely love it and all the organizational space you have is to die for. I just recently started with my nail obsession. But I know by the way I have been buying up nail related products, I will be needing something like this at some point.

    I have to ask you...what are the three things on top your nail art drawers...one looks like a big strawberry, one in tiger stripes and one blue/black with flowers?

    SvarSlet
    Svar
    1. Thank you Kelly, you are so right, and I feel lucky to have it!
      The three little "things" are Domo Kun's, the rulers and guardians of my nail polishes, originally the TV mascot for Japanese TV, but look at this post/mani of mine, then you will know more hahaha

    SvarSlet
  26. Thank you, Cali369, yes, I'm so privileged and grateful about it!
    The OptiVisor takes a little getting used to because the focal length is so short, but OH is so nice to have. I bought mine used from a local jeweler that had gotten a pair of glasses in that strength instead...
    I also tried some cheaper solutions, but I by far prefer this one!

    SvarSlet
  27. Your workstation is awesome, so much space and you organized everything so good! I like to see these kind of things, you're so lucky with such a great space to use while you work! :-) I imagine it's a real pleasure to be the guest and see you painting in your own "habitat"! :-)
    I would like to try your OptiVisor, looks so interesting and surely is very useful! :-)

    1. Thank you so much, Raggio di Luna, LOL, yes nail polish interested girls find it really fun to be in my habitat LOL
      Maybe you local jeweler has one, or something like it, that you could try in the shop to get an idea. They probably also can get one for you, but they are available online too...
