REALLY OLD POLISH - TG&Y YALL!

Tell me you all remember TG&Y stores??!!! I can't believe that I still remember them, they closed them all down so long ago, but I have faint memories of going to some with my mom as a child.

Anyway - I have more OLD goodies to show you! I almost fainted when I saw these two beauties! And got a good chuckle when I saw they came from TG&Y!! I have tried to find out more on Cutex Special Effects polishes but I have come up empty! It looks like there were at least 6 colors in this series, judging from the numbers from the bottom of the bottles. Obviously Blue Blazes is killing it over 18k - I want more of these though!

  2. I remember the old Cutex polishes - I had a gorgeous iridescent pink once upon a time. *memories* Anyway, I really like that Blue Blazes. Is it a purple base or did you layer it over a purple?

  4. MEGAN - It had a almost jelly like purple base with blue glitter.

    MOM - Good thing they aren't around anymore or Little would want to go there ALL the time! Those three things are some of his favorites!

  5. This fun, keep sharing your finds! I shot an email out to my freecycle group so thanks for reminding me that I could do that too!
    I think I had this "Blue Blazes" back in the day...it's soooo familiar and very pretty!

  6. I haven't seen a Cutex polihs in many years. That must really be old. Blue Blazes is fantastic. Never heard of that store. Probably not on the East Coast.
