From the Treasure Chest

These little beauties were actually gifts from friends and family at Christmas and Yule. I thought that I would share them with all of you!

Happy treasure hunting, my friends!

From the treasure chest ...

Happy Wednesday, my dear mermaid enthusiasts! Today, I thought I would share with you just a few of the mermaid treasures I have come across in my travels here and there. The above pic was taken outside one of the fabulous wiccan/pagan shoppes located in New Hope, PA. I always loved this statue and just had to get a pick with it. It would have looked great in my backyard at home. LOL!

The following pics are items from a cool shop called, "Mystickal Tymes" ...

A lovely chalice

Mermaid tea light holder

This gorgeous mermaid table that was hand-carved out of wood was inside of an Indian jewelry and clothing store. It was on sale for $1,200. Needless to say, it did not make it home with me ... isn't she awesome though?

Jim Shore's "Island Welcome"

Ever since I was a child, I held a strange fascination with mermaids. I remember watching an old cartoon on my grandmother's cable television called, "Marine Boy" about the adventures of a boy and his friends, a mermaid named "Neptina" and her dolphin, companion Splasher. I would sit on the floor and actually draw these characters while I watched the show. Oddly enough, I used to do the same thing while watching "The Flintstones." LOL!
