Dog Mom. Nail Art Lover.
Creative at Heart.
What started as a love for doing my own nails eventually became something I wanted to share with others—and Bernie’s Barking Nails was born.
I’ve always loved having a creative outlet. There’s something incredibly satisfying about starting with a blank nail and turning it into something completely unique, whether that means the perfect solid color, a little sparkle and dimension, or a tiny work of art.
Eventually, I started thinking: Why keep all the fun to myself?
So, I took something I genuinely enjoy and turned it into a little side hustle where I get to create beautiful, reusable nail sets for other people—without losing the fun and creativity that made me fall in love with nail art in the first place.
So... What’s With All the Barking? 🐾
When I’m not painting tiny canvases, there’s a very good chance I’m spending time with my dogs.
I’m a proud dog mom, and that part of my life inevitably finds its way into just about everything I do. So when it came time to give this little venture a name and personality of its own, Bernie’s Barking Nails just felt right.
The dogs may not be doing the painting—but I can’t guarantee they aren’t providing some creative supervision behind the scenes.
More Than Pretty Nails
For me, this is about more than selling press-ons.
I love the idea that something I create at my nail desk can arrive at someone else’s door and become a little piece of their personality. Maybe your nails are bold and over-the-top. Maybe they're soft and understated. Maybe you want rhinestones, chrome, tiny 3D details, and absolutely no restraint whatsoever.
Whatever makes you feel like you—that’s what I want to create.
I also want Bernie’s Barking Nails to feel personal. Whether you’re choosing a Ready-to-Wear set that immediately catches your eye or trusting me with inspiration for a completely custom creation, I want opening your new nails to feel like receiving something special—not something that simply came off a shelf.
Made by Me, Just for You 💙
Every custom set is created by hand, one nail at a time. There’s a real person sitting on the other side of your order—choosing colors, painting details, placing those ridiculously tiny rhinestones, and probably talking to a dog while doing it.
Whether you purchase a Ready-to-Wear set, trust me to create something completely custom, recommend Bernie’s Barking Nails to a friend, or simply cheer this little business on from the sidelines, I’m incredibly grateful you're here.
Welcome to Bernie’s Barking Nails.
