Mermaid Sighting: Sweet Handmade Mermaids

1 Comment / Mermaid Sightings /

There’s nothing sweeter than a new baby. Of course, we mean any baby around here…puppies, sea turtles, but this particular time, we mean human babies! Doesn’t everyone has a soft spot for infant photography? Of course, and new parents are always looking for unique ways to capture those fleeting moments. Well, when we came across this sighting from Etsy.com, and we just melted!

The beautiful work of Alisha Martin...how adorable!

Isn’t that gorgeous!? And handmade at that! This is the work of the super talented Alisha Martin, and you can find this beautiful work and more in her Etsy shop, Alisha May Creations. Not only does she crochet these beautiful pieces by hand herself, her shop is full of photography props and accessories just perfect for new parents looking for that special touch for their photo shoot.

Handmade perfection from Alisha May Creations on Etsy!

This newborn mermaid outfit is hand made of soft acrylic yarn, and Alisha also makes them custom, to your color and size! How wonderful is that? Make sure you head over to Alisha May Creations and browse through all the magical goodies. They are all amazing, but of course, our absolute favorite is this darling mermaid! Five stars, Alisha! Beautiful work!

Alisha has also been so kind as to offer anyone reading this post a coupon code for 15% off the total purchase! Just enter the code “favorite” when you check out! Thanks Alisha!

Mermaid Sighting: Florida Mermaids

Leave a Comment / Mermaid Sightings /

Back in November, our own Mermaid Melissa picked up and moved to Florida! She and her husband were exploring their new town a week after moving in and wouldn’t you know it, they spotted a mermaid! And not only one…but three!

Don't you just love the little blocks?!

Melissa said they were wandering around and decided to check out a local art museum. “I didn’t think it would take too long to spot one, since it is Florida, but I wasn’t expecting to spot three within a week of moving!”

These lovely sea creatures were gracing the shelves of the gift shop in The Florida Museum for Women Artists in DeLand. Aren’t they fabulous? So playful and fun! Thank you for sharing Melissa!

We just adore the little details, like the sea horse!

Have you seen a mermaid? Well, we’d love to hear about it! Please send your sightings and stories to diane@mermaidcottages.com. You never know, yours could be the next featured sighting, right here on our blog!

You might think Christmas and Mermaids don’t mix…but we know they do around here! We’ve seen some fabulous ornaments for your tree and gift giving for that special coastal lover, but one thing we found really made our jingle bells ring! Look at these merry and bright Christmas cards featuring, what else, mermaids!

Just a sample of the whimsical work of artist Camille Grimshaw!
Look at this lovely lady!Who hasn't gotten tangled in lights at least once during the holidays?

These festive, beautiful cards are the work of Camille Grimshaw and you can find them in her shop, Camillion Creations on Etsy, along with loads of other amazing mermaid art. Camille is one talented lady, and we can’t get enough of her beautiful work. All of them are fabulous, but these Christmas cards are the perfect touch of whimsy for any one wishing to send coastal holiday cheer. I especially love the lovely lady busy checking off her Christmas shopping list! Make sure to stop by her shop and browse all of her work, because everything is fabulous…andas far as we are concerned, mermaids are in style all year-round!
