I don't even think I showed my new top (If i did then well hey here's a refresher lol)I still love my finfolk one don't get me wrong, but that one is now for event use now, since kids loved grabbing the seahorse on the side of the bra lol.
Mermaid Hyli did my recent top, and did a wonderful job, matching it with my new tail colors. this is just a sneak peek though.

This is my silicone top by Siren Allure. I adore it. Hyli makes amazing tops. Fits like a dream and is super comfy

This is my self made she'll top. Bra base with real lions paw and fishnet halter straps. The fishnet tends to cut into my collar bone if I wear it for too long. I prefer shell tops, but am still working on a halter strap design that doesn't cut into the skin. It's a work in progress.

I'm now trying to decide whether or not to add a lace appliqué to make it a bit more modest, and/or whether I want to try to sequin the back as well. Let me know what you think! Input is welcome!

Working on a top- I am going to use it as is for something in a few weeks, wanted simple, but then going to add to it! I am pouring over this thread trying to decided what exactly to do with it- so many gorgeous tops!!! You guys are so creative and do such great work

I'm in the process of making my shell top, with some netting. I like the look of the fake seaweed but is it uncomfortable?
It's supposed to majorily rest on the bra itself which keeps it away from skin for the most part, but if it's in a position that can brush against you, it can be very scratchy.Quote:

Mine really isn't that uncomfortable. Only thing that mames it uncomfortable on my top is that i didnt cut it down and so it's so long it pokes me in the arm pits sometimes. Besides that though i hardly noticeQuote:

Put too much heavy decor on them and they fall off. Like shells and such.

Just finished my first sequin scale top! Added a lace appliqué to cover the girls since I'm quite busty.

Sharing in the tops thread bc I'm a newbie but really enjoying the crafting process! Hope everyone is having a lovely day :)
Pretty! That's some serious quality work there.
This is gorgeous! I love the color and the layering of the scales and the fins... Well I guess I love everything about this! Awesome job!Quote:

Aw thank you for the kind words ladies! They are definitely inspired by Pearlie's! I knew nothing about this world and when I googled how to get started I discovered this incredible community with a crazy mix of designs and methods! I make other costume pieces regularly but this was a whole new world.
Thank you merwandering for the reaction to my other work! I'm hoping to find ways to incorporate these new shell related skills into armor pieces like maybe dragon stuff!
That top is absolutely gorgeous! You did an amazing job!
All these gorgeous tops make me wish my tail wasn't a one piece!
This is absolutely fabulous! I used some fishing net I bought at Hobby Lobby to cover the twins! Great idea with the lace!Quote:

This top isn't for me, it's actually a custom order for a lovely mer here on the MN. I have one more going out to her that I'm still working on (that one will be a surprise though) http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...86c3df66cc.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...17741eac28.jpg

Very pretty Momo!
Momo that's gorgeous!
I'm seriously glad my mom can sew. I'm getting paid Friday so I can buy two Siren Allure tops but my mermaid trip is this weekend so we whipped this up :)

Started my new top the other day and got a lot done on it today! :) I'm using E6000, black scallop shells I found on the beach that I adore and always pick up, sea glass, pearls (white, light blue, and gold), and those aquarium tank bead things (I got the big bag of them for .79 cents at a craft store haha). Oh and this irridescent glitter I found at Walmart that matches my tail!!! :) It looks really cool in person because the bra is tan so when the glue and glitter dries it just looks like irridescent skin! =D So excited to finish this one! :)) We're gonna go get aquarium plants soon for my headpiece and other stuff. ;) <3
