Doing nails for me isn't just about the paycheck - its about making the people I serve feel good. Who better to make feel good than the people I enjoy having in my life? Luckily for me though, Kim also loves the color purple! So, I also got the opportunity to feature her nails on the blog for my weekly color post. Kim picked a great color by Crabtree and Evelyn called Wisteria . For the longest time I didn't know what Wisteria actually was...but this character in a play I saw with my mom ke...
