About me.

Starfish Nails & Jewellery started off as a hobby of mine.

I really enjoyed nail art and painting my own nails, and quickly became fascinated with it ! I enjoyed it so much I was easily persuaded by a friend of mine to see if I could make some money from my passion...

So then came a few hand painted false nail sets to go on Etsy in July 2012.

I patiently waited... and waited... and waited... It would be 4 months before my first sale, and you would not believe how excited I was to get that "kerching" sound on my phone to alert me of my very first sale :)

From then on it was slow, but steady, I'd sell probably 1 set every couple of months, but most of my sales came from friends asking for sets for special occasions.

Up until late 2013 I was only making nail sets, but I had the need to do something more, but I wasn't sure what.

Until 3am one morning I woke up with one of the better ideas I ever had. NAIL POLISH JEWELLERY !! I could still use the gorgeous polish colours I have accumulating my shelves and boxes and hopefully sell them on Etsy alongside my nail sets.

And here we are today :) still selling slow and steady, but I wouldn't stop doing it for the world.
