New locket finished. I decided to use some lapis lazuli cube beads to match the eye cabachon. I have one of those left and it’s being made into a necklace right now

Finally caught up with shipping orders out. Today I was well enough to start some new stuff and this one got reserved before I could finish it

After a week long stay in Toronto General and then Princess Margaret to dea with complications and give these cnet tumors the beat down, I’ve made this cancer my bitch again and I get to go home today!

I am grateful for everyone’s patience with so many delays in getting orders out while I was battling an infection. I’m not screaming in pain for the first time in ages and feel like I’m getting some semblance of my life back.

For your viewing please, I thought I’d share some photos of pieces I made in 2010-2012. Summery, mermaid themed pieces and decorated vintage solid steel based barrettes, ideal for keep heavy, thick hair up in sticky humid weather. Each is OOAK, and range between $35 and $85 CAD.

What do you think? When I’m able to, should I make some new barrettes for the summer? What kind of theme would you like to see?

It’s been a bit of a roller coaster since moving back home from Hospice care. Lots of cleaning needed to be done, and my back went out again for a bit, but I seem to be stable now, if not a little extra tired.

My sincere apologies for the delay in shipping orders. They are safe and sound and ready to go, I just need to pack them up and send my daughter off to the post office to ship them, because I cannot make the walk myself anymore. If u you ou are still waiting for your purchase, please DM me and remind me so I can make it a priority. Thank you for your patience and consideration!

These stunning lapis lazuli ladyfingers became a collar for a friend’s birthday gift. I used 4mm garnet beads in between to fan out the lapis. Finished pic to come!

Just a lovely mermaid friend making mermaid things 💙

We got this old girl back for some repairs. I replaced the blended waist (which was heavily worn down) and it’s amazing what a new waist can do for a tail.
This is one of my favorite designs from so long ago and I’m amazed with how good it looks considering all the life it’s lived so far.
I named her Maori because this design was inspired by a Redbreasted Maori Wrasse 🥰
I also made a matching Clamshell crown and necklace❤️

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

New supplies arrives 3 weeks early:

Large are 40x30mm cabachons, next are 25x18mm cabachons (sweater pin size), and then 25mm round size. I have an extremely limited supply of these because I bought other supplies for orders, and splurged on these as ‘samples’ just to see if I could come up with something really neat. I already sketched out a few ideas!

I cannot WAIT to finish making and shipping my current orders so I can start playing with these!!!

What’s your favourite design?

Dream it, then BE it! A perfect example of an artist making their dream a reality and Pershing that to where they are now, on to of their field. Extras Kudos to Tyler Stutter of Twenty Penny Productions, professional clown, illusionist, performer, and Raven’s husband and photographer. A stunning power couple and dynamic duo! Catching a show with these two is a MUST SEE!

How it started and how it’s going.

The first photo was taken by my dad ❤️
Truly one of the best days of my life. I was around 8years old when I hand sewed this little gray tail. I didn’t know how to sew and there wasn’t a mermaid community or mermaid tails available then like there are now.
It sure was ugly 😅, but to me it was the greatest thing in the whole world and I was so proud of myself for making it. I’ll never forget this day or how happy I was. Seeing the photos my dad took and realizing I’d made my dream a reality truly sparked something inside of me.
I’m so grateful my dad took this photo because this was the beginning of the silly made up life I live now.

Guess who’s feeling better and actually able to venture home for the day?

MEEEE!!!!!

Thanks to the multi-talented Rashelle for the kitty cakes yesterday! I got my appetite back in the early morning and chomped the head off one. Adorable and Delicious!

Also thanks to Rashelle, I had Jason stop to get me a steak burrito for lunch. Om nom nom 💜
