That is WICKED! I can not wait for ours to arrive, it will be so much fun and a great way to tell the kids about the trip!!
I was so inspired by all the bands, I decided to take our bands from our last trip and experiment! We have another set coming for our May trip, so if I mess these up, it will not be the end of the world. I used a Migi Nail art kit (ads on TV all the time) that someone got me as a Christmas present. They worked really well for the details. One thing to note: I had seen that mistakes were removed easily with nail polish remover - not entirely true. The color of the band and the color of the polish comes into play here. I was not able to completely remove the red from my yellow band, and I figure black is probably the same. So use caution with darker colors on lighter bands if you have to remove the polish! I love Animal, so I chose him as my first attempt. Sorry for the glare, I had to use my flash. Here is the nail art kit I used:
I'm a 30 yo single male let me tell you it was interesting going in and buying nail polish and nail art pens! Lol I hope I did ok.
You guys inspired me to paint my magic band today. At first I was bummed I had a pink one because I couldn't come up with a good idea, but this seems perfect. http://s666.photobucket.com/user/ly...6-4e38-828f-0ac3219179ac_zpsc269570c.jpg.html http://s666.photobucket.com/user/lynnparkhurst/media/magicband1_zps6a7cf1c0.jpg.html

How did you paint this?! With nail art pens?! I love it!!
Has anyone used acrylic paint on these yet? I don't have a whole lot of nail polish and i don't want to have to buy 10 bottles or the migi set for $20. I know it would crack on the flexible part, but what about the stiff area around the sensor? Then clear nail polish to seal it. if no one has tried it yet, i can try it on mine once i return from my trip and remove the nail polish that's on it now. (I only have silver, glow in the dark and clear coat). I leave Wednesday to try out my new band!
Just WOW. You did this with NAIL POLISH. Wow. Up until right now I had been content with looking at all the great designs, but I guess this has pushed me over the line. My green band must become Maleficient. HockeyMom, if I'm on here at midnight trying to figure out how to get purple polish off my green band, you'd better be here for me!! LOL! I LOVE this thread!I finished the last one. My DD14 likes to challenge me.http://s666.photobucket.com/user/lynnparkhurst/media/magicband5_zpsc05ac446.jpg.html Here is the complete set! http://s666.photobucket.com/user/lynnparkhurst/media/magicband7_zps0aa52638.jpg.html
