Crocheted Mermaid Tail Set

Here is my attempt at a Mermaid Tail Set. NO PATTERN!!!!!! This is all me and in my brain hehe. I did get a tiny help on the crown because I got stuck but figured it out.  Here is a helpful video for crowns/tiaras https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQEt7mgCqQw&feature=share . Of course I made it my own. I will be making more of these. They were so fun. Took a whole day to make this set.  I did make the pearl centers on the top. Used clear thread/fishing line to make it. Sewed them to the top and sewed pearls to the crown and head pieces. Love the color combination. Don't usually see this set up.  Added 2 rows of the soft yellow color to the top of the mermaid tail suit.






Happy Crafting all!

San Diego Wild Animal Park Album

I hope my son will enjoy this as he gets older.  I did get some help with the layouts from www.sketchsavvy.blogspot.com . I used some of her layouts and made it my own.

Hand Made Art Easels




Finished creating 2 more art easels! I measured, marked, sawed, sanded, drilled holes, and put screws in them! Took me a few hours because I hand sawed them with a hack saw lol. Wanted to spray paint them but whats the point. hehe Love them!

Card for my aunt



Here is a cute card I made for my grand aunt Peggy. She had a procedure done to help remove a tumor she has. I wanted to make her a card. Not just any card something HAPPY. Well here is a cute Sock Monkey that I made. Doesn't she look happy?!  I got the file from http://svgcuttingfiles.com/catalog.php?item=671 .  I loved making these. It took time because of the pieces you have to cut out. I love how it turned out. I stamped it with a Smile stamp.  I hope this makes her feel better. I know she will be having a few more procedures done so I will be sending more cards hehe. 


Happy Crafting!!
