So, Kitty's Painted Claws is having a bit of a move. A digital one though, not a real world one.
I enjoy using wordpress far much more then the blogger platform - wordpress is far more powerful as far as content manipulation goes - and thus I am very tempted to move this blog from here to http://nails.beccaferry.com.
This would, however, mean that I would be no longer able to offer google friend connect as a method of following my blog, but you would still be able to follow my blog through your blogger dashboard by manually adding my URL to your followed blogs.
I'll be moving completely over to my new address - http://nails.beccaferry.com - as of the 1st of Feb. Until then everything will be posted to both here on blogger and there on wordpress.
Thank you all for following me, you're all so kind! :D

Back to Blogging
Hi everyone! Its been a long time since I posted here, and life has been incredibly hectic. I have only advice for any younger readers out there - being an adult isn't all its cracked up to be! Stupid jobs and houses and bills.
I've pledged to make a little more time for myself though, and that means more time to paint nails! I'll be starting The Crumpet's 52 WEEK Pick-n-Mix challenge next week, which means that there will hopefully be content at least weekly for the next year! This is the longest challenge I've ever done, so I'll have plenty to post about in the next 12 months.

2013 & 2014
Hey everyone, sorry for yet another bout of silence on the blog lately but I've been up to my eyeballs in a new (and possibly slightly crazy) project.
I present to you all - R&R Lacquers...
Rachael of Racho's Nail Love and I have decided to try and start our own range of handmade polishes, and thus we have spent the last 4 weekends covered in glitter and pigment and surrounded by many many prototypes. My living room now looks like it hosts a weekly meeting of fairies. So glitter, many sparkle!
We've finally pared them down in to a six polish collection we'll be releasing at the end of the month (ish) so stay tuned for more info. or alternatively visit our Instagram, Facebook or Twitter for more information and sneaky peeks!
2013 has been an experience - this time last year I think I had maybe 8 nail polishes and no nail art brushes or anything. I don't really know what started me off, although mostly I credit Rachael because she was the one who pushed on in to blogging about it (Thank you Rach!).
I've managed to amass quite the stash of polish and try loads of delightful manis this year, and hopefully 2014 will just mean more and more!
I don't make New Years Resolutions, except to continue existing for another year which I always seem to be rather good at (after all, I've made it this far!), but there are a few things I want to do this year in terms of the blog. These mainly consist of blogging more consistently and trying to better my photography.
One more thing - Is there anything you guys would like to see? You're the ones that read the blog after all, so its only fair to ask what you'd like.

Leibster Award
I think I'm starting to collect these or something (Gotta catch 'em all!) - I now have 7 nominations for this.
As I've been nominated by so many people, I've decided that I'm going to answer everyone's questions, because I'm polite like that, but I'm not going to nominate anyone. All of the blogs I follow have this (possibly more than once by the flow of nominations I've had), and if you don't feel free to take it from me. I'm sure you'll get nominated pretty soon anyway!
I'm gonna put this all under a cut because this is gonna be an absolutely mammoth post....

Hollibobs!
That's right ladies, I'm off on my holidays.
From the 11th to 26th of this month I will be in (and around) sunny Faro in the south of Portugal, doing very little except swim in the sea and read in the sun.
This isn't just a holiday for myself through - I'm taking this chance to give my nails a nice, polish free fortnight. I'm also cutting my nails right down, which is going to be very different as my nails are very long for me at the moment.
There will be posts whilst I'm away, including a guest post by one of my Chief Enablers, Rachel of Racho's Nail Love and (hopefully) my challenge nails for the two challenges I'm participating in at the moment.
When I get back however, there will be plenty going on - I've had quite the haul for my birthday, as well as trying to get my hands on some Kiko polishes whilst on the continent, so I'm sure that will more than make up for the slight quietness that may creep in over the next two weeks!
