Merry Mermaids Day Four

This little mermaid is fancy schmancy gazing at the glittery sea, the dolphin is probably saying “Come play with me!” Looks like it is a pretty romantic day at the sea. Romance SELLS, so if romance is what my customer wants, that is what they will get. LOL.

I love 10 x 10 gallery wrapped canvases they are easy to fill. When I was browsing through a catalog and found this image of hair jewelry, I knew it HAD to be a mermaid.

I scanned the photo from the catalog and edited it with my photo software to look like an oil painting. Then printed it out as an 8 x 10, cut it out and had fun decorating with actual jewelry that I hot glued to the picture. The “chains” are made with Ranger Stickles which I couldn’t be without!

I purchase inexpensive rhinestone jewelry at garage sales and clip it apart for the elements in her hair necklace with wire clippers. It is easy peasy to clip them apart!
