Hey MerNetwork! I've been on here for about a year now and made my fabric tail last year. I moved over the summer and only got to swim in my tail once. Let's just say I made it way to big so the swim didn't last long.
But that's not what this topic is about, this topic is about my very first top.
Because I haven't swam much with my tail I jut used a bikini top. But I have some spare time before I move back (long story) so here it goes!
I've been googling lots of tops and looking at a lot of other Mers work!
I wanted to go with a sea weed top and netting!
Started this last night

Slow process. But I started last night so I guess I'm getting pretty far.
What does everyone think?

That's really clever! I would have never thought to use Aquarium decor for it. I bet it's going to look good once it's done!

I love the bubbles! I use bubble beads a lot, too; they really give that underwater feel!

Oooh, that's looking nice! Love the bubbles!

I saw some really super-neat aquarium plants at Wal-Mart the other day and thought they'd work really well for a bra!
