    I did it! I made a mermaid tail...it works and didn't fall apart in the water!!! lol Here are some photo's and a rough video of my mermaid swimming in her new tail. I still have to finish sewing it at the top, add her belt to keep it on tight at the waist...and do some touch up painting, but other than that it is pretty much finished!!! Yay!

    Success!

    I will have to do some touch ups before our next party next week! The pool water definitely degrades the latex with prolonged exposure...but not too badly Everyone LOVED it and the little girls really believed that there was a REAL mermaid in the pool! It was awesome! More pics from the party coming soon!

    Mertenders are definitely important! Mr. Orca tends to be mine, especially since swimming in his tail in public embarrasses him. *Giggle*

    Party 2 was a success! Tail is holding up great! I know a lot of people are not fans of Alex Plus, but it has suited my needs PERFECTLY and I have had no issues with it. It is inexpensive, easy to use and looks great!
