Wheel I13: Glitters from Happy Hands

Today for Nail Wheel Wednesday I've got glitters from Happy Hands, an indie brand that debuted in 2012 during what I think of as the golden age of indie glitters. These are mostly toppers ... I did a wheel with crelly glitters from Happy Hands early last year (and still have at least a few more to swatch on future wheels). I don't remember when Happy Hands closed up shop; I think it was sometime in 2014.
