It has been a while since I gave you all an "Under the Sea" update.  So, here's a sneak peek of the seagull, mermaid's crazy, whimsical friend...

I was having fun this week thinking of other fun things to go with the mermaids, and I decided to see if I could crochet some mini seashells.

These are the ones I did...

Mermaid inspiration is back... this time with the little Kelly dolls!

If you have been following me here on my blog, or through my facebook page, you will know that I am slowly working my way through crocheting barbie outfits inspired by disney heroines.  I have finished using Tinkerbell for inspiration, and now I am working on a mermaid that is inspired by Ariel from "The Little Mermaid".

The outfit is mostly finished.  I still have to tie in some loose ends for the dress, add a snap and maybe even embellish it.  I am currently working on the bottom half of the wings, and then I will work on a hair accessory.  

So far she has a dress, panties, slippers (I am thinking about adding something to the tip), fairy dust pouch, a wand and part of her wings.  Below are pictures of how I have progressed so far...
