I really want to make my own shell crown/dead piece, any tips and advice? I've never made one before!
First choose a base, headband, tiara, ect. Then let me.know and I can help.from there
There are many styles to choose from Sirenia! The most common are clips and headbands. I actually just finished a headpiece for Mermaid Harmony that is a clip style, but I've done headbands as well. If you'd like any help, feel free to message me!
And here's the newest piece I made. This one's headed to Harmony in Hawaii! It's asymetrical, so each side is different.

Awww! Thank you all! I'm open for orders if anyone is interested in a custom piece.
Oceanwhisperer, if you mean what glue, I used E-6000.
lol I should've just asked that in the first place >.< but thanks for getting back to me :)

I got an old (kinda broken at the bottom) oar free from a neighbors garage sale.
The saying goes......one man's trash is another man's treasure.
I cleaned it, spray painted it, and then encrusted it in shells, broken/fragmented shells, glitter, pearls, and beads.
I think it turned out really neat looking!
I'm planning on using it as a walking stick with my walking tail and/or some sort of prop.
You could always use it to hit adults upside the head when they ruin it for the kids by making them realize you aren't "a real mermaid" ;)Quote:

No sharks were harmed in the making of this. I had found the head of a bronzy on the beach and proceeded to do some dental work, and the bigger one was a gift.
It's a little spikey :P
That's awesome :) You learn something new every day too hahaQuote:
