Mermaid Parties

 

Under the Sea...

Mermaid Parties


Every little girl at some point dreams of being a mermaid sitting by a jewel covered rock pool.

It was easy to get inspired initially by blue and green shades of organza fabric.  I love the way light reflects on this beautiful fabric making it look like waves of colour.




These plaster shells are an ornament found in the garden section of a discount store.
They have been painted with a mother of pearl paint to give it a pearl lustre. The plastic ball has also been painted with mother of pearl. 




A palm tree with pearlescent sea coloured balloons.  
Fabric fish swing as if swimming in the breeze.  




A rock pool surrounded by organza, shells and a string of "water bubble" lights.




Palm trees made from paper mache and faux leaves found in the 
decorator section of various discount stores.



Strings of necklaces and flower lei's with mermaiden hand mirror.
