December PPu: Enchanted Forest Li-Z



Hi to all of my polish obsessed friends!
When Adrienne asked me to be guest swatcher for December I was so shocked & almost lost it. 😂 I'm so excited I get to share all of these amazing polishes on my first blog post! She asked if I wanted to take on this huge task by myself or with someone else so I chose the talented(and super quick) Jessica. #TeamJessica for the win. 😉 You can find her here:
Polish Pickup is a Facebook group where makers create polishes based on a certain theme that members of the group vote for. You can buy 1 or 20, the choice is yours! The polishes are shipped together, for one low flat rate price of $3(U.S. orders)  Orders are automatically combined and shipping on multiple orders will be refunded. How awesome is that?! This month, things will be a bit different and the items offered in the shop will not be a pre-order but will start shipping immediately after the shop closes.
December's theme is Enchanted Forest and I'll be sharing brands Li-Z. The shop will be opened 12/7-12/10. Be sure to check Jessica's blog post for the first half! Now onto the polishes!
