polished

polished is the name of Henrietta's nail salon, she is taking care of one of her clients. I purchased two miworld nail salons, I took a piece of clear plastic and made a circle then spread tacky glue in swirls and let it dry, then put them in the spa chairs for water. I made the towels, and I took a bunch of little square mirrors and glued them together to make one big mirror. I added some rement items. the table between the spa chairs I made by putting two vases together and putting a piece of wood on top. thanks shirley
