I assumed there would be a language barrier, so I drew a picture of the daisy I wanted painted on my big toes & labeled it. But then I assumed she may not be able to read English, so I also demonstrated with bottles of nail polish. We were cool. I felt confident that she knew what I wanted.
See!! Wouldn't this be soooo cute!!!
She finished the pedi and told me the other lady would do the flower. I heard her say "Daisy" and the new lady looked at my drawing.
I've heard of
- language barriers
- barrier reefs
- sound barriers
- barrier contraceptives
- vapor barriers
(side note....my toes look so short & stumpy in this pic! I actually have rather long toes. Funny!)

I've learned to let go when it comes to requesting a specific design. It never comes out the way I want it to, and sometimes I am pleasantly surprised.
they look really pretty! maybe she couldn't draw it like you did with the nail polish ;)
I wanted an American flag one time and they didn't know what I meant... it's not like I live in some third world country!
But I love the pedi you got... the green is AWESOME. (My favorite color, you know!)
So, seriously, if the offer is for real, the kids and I might drive up to see you for a short trip... what do you think?
Look at y'all. Y'all are so cute when you're trying to cheer me up. I think the flowers are ugly.
That turned out cute!
I love the daisies, I think they turned out really cute. Not any way close to the drawing but I like it. I had really cute jack-o-lanterns once. Aunt Rae
Better luck next time. Mom
People are dumb.
It looks great to me!
I think your toenails are so cute!
