Raven is so awesome. Sometimes I'm super happy for her that her business is a success and she can perform. Then sometimes I feel so bad because she really could use a vacation. I hope things slow down a bit after summer. :-)
It's been so quite down here....
Any news?

There's this little cutie.
I really hate to say this about something Raven made, but I don't like it. :-/ I dunno why. Maybe a different angle would change my mind? *shrugs* I saw it on instagram and I wasn't all that excited about it.
I'm not sure about that one either... is it supposed to be modeled after a particular kind of ray? I guess it's trying to be a particular shape top, but not one I would have chosen. I think there's something Idon't like about the head shape, too. Maybe another angle would be better.
Not my favorite.
Kinda strange because, wasn't Hyli making this in June?
And she even said...

After such a huge success with my silicone shell top I decided to try my hand at some others. I have a customer who would like starfish so that is one of my next adventures and I will do my best not to copy Raven :) but I was thinking about the mers who are a little more modest?
Just kinda... Funky, you know?
I'm just gonna put this in here that I did talk to Raven about it. She was very calm and sweet about it. We each have our own design and they are many fish in the sea. I guess it doesnt really.matter on who did it first or made it better its two different tops for different people :) I think her stingray top is cute. I wanted to do something more realistic and modest because I've read on this network people wanting more modesty so I figured I would give it a try. Dont wanna cause any drama just letting people know me and raven are on good terms about this she is my tail maker after all :)
Sorry to interrupt but....MY TAIL SHIPS OUT TOMORROW!!!! :D :yay: AAAAARGH SO HAPPY!!!!
I've actually been bugging raven for a year to make a stingray top so I could buy it lol. As for things being quiet she's just been working so hard on orders.
Yay! Congrats, Ariel! I got a peek at what my fluke will look like fleshed out. ;-P Wish I was in Florida this weekend to see it in person. Heehee. It's so pretty!!!Quote:

My bracers just arrived! I'll post pictures sometime. :3 They're great, though! =D
Yay Emma,
Also, MERBELLAS ARE OFF DOING A GIG AND WONT BE IN THE OFFICE TIL MONDAY SO IF YOU MESSAGE YOU'RE JUST GETTING ME AND I AM BUSY WITH GIGS ALL WEEKEND TOO AND CANT SPEED UP YOUR ORDER. lol. Just saying.
I've got a question about silicone.
With my bracers, I've been wearing them as every-day wear. I plan to rinse them out after swimming of course but I'm also curious about dish soap--is there any sort of issue with it and touching the silicone? I don't want to wear it down faster and thus far I've avoided contact but I'd like to know for certain.
Hehe, sorry about the double post there. :b

Seams! They look perfect this time, haha. I love them<3

They DO look perfect! :D I love those scales <3
I love them too! Raven made the scales smaller so they're less likely to pull apart or get ripped, and they have a better stretch (my hand is eight inches and my wrist is six and a half, I don't know if that's average difference though :P).
Awesome! So glad you got them and they are better this time around :)
Sorry if I missed this, but there were 79 pages to go through, LOL, but , when you place an order and get an invoice, is it for the full total? I need to wrangle a couple more hundred dollars and am trying to figure out if I need to wait completely or if they bill half or something at first? Anyone know?
Thanks in advance
Invoice is for full payment upfront. :-) When you are billed on PayPal, you can pay. She won't start until you pay. Hope that helps!
Yes, Thanks so much!Quote:

Oh and about that: my tail should arrive on August 7 :D I'm SOOO going to freak out! xD Ofcourse i'll do a video to :p
As far as cleaning my bracers after swimming, how does the baking powder/soda work again? I just got back from using them the first time (<3) and I rinsed them out really well in the sink, then dried them off with a washcloth and set them on the washcloth in my room to finish drying. I remember Raina mentioning a bath for her tail at some point but I can't find that anywhere now. =\
Wow, those bracers are beautiful!
I wish I had known I could ask for a remake instead of just a refund. =/ Much too late now.
I don't think you need to worry about the baking soda, I only do that when I've been in chlorine for a super long time. If you cleaned them all off you should be great. So glad you're happy with them
I'm very happy, yay! Thank you, I think the water will probably do the trick as (at least) lately I haven't really swum for too long straight.Quote:

Ariel, I'm going through Raven's emails while she's on her gig trip and I noticed she sent you the price of the shipping and she hasn't heard back from you yet or received anything yet.Quote:

it has her concerned so please be sure to contact her about it asap!
I'll do! I wanted to contact her on monday when she's back. But I'll contact her/you right now... After breakfast ;) (It's 8 am in the morning)Quote:

Wow. So, I know my tail isn't complete, and I haven't heard about the paint yet, which is fine, but I must say... It feels strange knowing that it was a whole three months ago that I ordered. In a good way. Haha
It's just... surreal, I guess? Like, this is really happening, you know? It seems like I just ordered yesterday! It's strange how time flies. :-P
Just wow... I'm really getting my tail. Haha it's finally setting in. Yay!!
Just wanted to share that moment. :-P
I've been stalking the shipping process of my tail like a mad fish! But there is someting wrong: it ships from the US to France , and then back again! :s I hope they are not holding it back!!
Hehe, thanks! But yes, much too late. I'm just glad I was able to have the refund.Quote:
