ReplyDeleteLook at that gorgeous mermaid's tail. So shimmery and beautiful. I adore the soft white waves cresting around it, too. This is the best kind of swimming. I'm a little surprised to learn you don't swim, but not terribly. My mom didn't swim either and we had an inground pool in our backyard. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful creativity! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteCompletely forgot to say happy congrats on the win of those tickets. I'm sure that show will be so fun! Those dancers are very talented. Hope you'll share a bit of your experience. I was late to the DWTS party, but do enjoy watching it when it is on. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect take on the sketch! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYou've done some fabulous things with that mermaid tail, Michele. Those waves are perfect to tuck her into. Congrats on winning the tickets. I can't wait to hear about it.
