    A Magical Top Adventure

    Hey guys!

    So, my friend and I are planning on making a mermaid series. Checklist?

    I have a tail and am making my friend a tail. So, check!

    My friend has a pool., and I own a lake house which my family (and some friends!!!) go to every summer. Check and double check!

    My dad owns a waterproof camcorder and I use it more than him. Check!

    Well, out tops could use some work...

    I'm probably going to just decorate a normal bikini, covering it, etc, but I could use ideas for decorations. *Nods* *WILL POST UPDATES WHEN NEEDED*

    Lionspaw is the name of the large shells often used in shell bras. But they can be overly heavy, fragile and expensive. Plastic can be scratchy and uncomfortable, I suggest buy the foam fake shells off of eBay.

    Use Needle & thread and e6000 glue to attach. (no others) e6000 is waterproof and will glue together almost everything.

    As for embellishments, Go Wild! For mine I used cheap dollar-store stick on gems, small shells, a secondhand cut up pair of soft fishnet stockings and Fake seaweed.

    It doesn't have to be at all expensive, the cheaper the better as in filming it will see heavy useage.
    Go overboard on bright colours as blue tones everything down and once in the water it will look amazing!

    I found (on the ground) one of those shells once and I was surprised with how much it covered.
