Hi friends sharing a magical mermaid dresser I made using chipboard and Graphic 45
Voyage Beneath the Sea papers. Sharing lots of pictures!

Added gorgeous tassels all around. The feet of the dresser were made by covering large beads with shells.

Made the large shell shaker in such a way that glitter and holographic paper layers are staggered .I couldn't capture the shimmer effect on camera!

And behind the shell is the beautiful mermaid protected in a shiny underwater sanctuary. To create the underwater look I created a dome using acetate and added an acetate hood atop it to completely seal it. I am super thrilled how it turned out as it was the result of much experimentation!
