The Time Traveler Collection

Things have been a bit quiet here because I've been hard at work teaching myself how to make colored polishes using pigments!  I am a huge nerd Dr. Who fan, so without further ado here is a sneak peek at my next collection:



I don't have an exact availability date (yet) but it will be sometime between now and Thanksgiving.  It's quite a bit more work to create colors from scratch, so I want to be sure I can produce these consistently (and I'm still in the process of testing for staining).

Hello, Sweetie:   A purple jelly with black, copper and red glitter.  Inspired by River Song.
Slow Invasion:  Cubes of all sizes and colors in a teal jelly base.  Inspired by the invasion of the same name.
Allons-y!:  Teeny tiny glitter in blues, greens, purples, and many more colors.  Inspired by the 10th Doctor.
When A Good Man Goes to War:  Dark times and bloodshed, inspired by the 11th Doctor.
Oodiful:  Pink and white glitters in a grey jelly base.  Inspired by the Ood.
Bigger On The Inside:  A bold blue jelly with blue and silver microglitter.  Inspired by the Tardis.

So I'm dying to know - what do you think?

    I would need "Hello, Sweetie" even if it weren't my favorite color! I love the inclusion of red glitter!
    The names are not as obvious as some of the other Who collections I've seen.
    I am on a no-buy, so these bad boys will have to go on Christmas wish list :)

      Thanks Jen! I think I worked as hard on the names as I have on the polishes, so that means a lot.

    I looooove them all! Idk how I could decide on just one...or two.... Hello Sweetie is prob my favorite and Bigger on the Inside is gorgeous. Slow Invasion & Oodiful are lovely too... I think I will be buying myself a very early Christmas present!!! ...I adore Doctor Who. I'd probably have to get all of them. So which one is your favorite doctor??
