Custom Mermaid Lego

02 Jun, 2010 by in mermaid, siren 11 comments

Searching for SIREN items I stumbled upon TheBeachGnome. First of all those really are two of my favorite things…beaches and gnomes. Second of all our names are the same and she is a SAHM as well. We’ve had fun shooting emails back and forth. She’s generously donated a custom mermaid lego girl…”My name is Heather and I am a stay at home mom to 3 boys. I love to create and I have a list a mile long of things I want to make. So many things in nature are magical and inspire me. I am an eclectic “artist”. I guess I’d consider myself an ADHD crafter. I want to try it all!

Description
A beautiful mermaid with some bling. Her shiny silver tail reflects the sunlight as she swims through the water. She is a woman of many moods, her head can be turned to reveal a pleasant smile or an anguished grimace. She is approximately 2 ΒΌ inches tall.
