My new collection....mermaids

So for some reason I've started collecting mermaids. I mean, I don't know why...I'm terrified of drowning. Hmmm.....well here is my small collection and I'm sure it will grow in time. :)

My newest purchase! I love them....they are just gorgeous!

A picture I bought while back home on a visit. I absolutely adore this.

I've had this statue for years and I can't remember where I bought it. Isn't she pretty?

And my working candle holder I've had for years as well. :)

Sorry for the grainy pics guys. I've done something to a setting on my camera again! I'm so technically challenged. I usually just push buttons until I get it right but tonight I just couldn't figure it out. Lol!

Ready for Samhain?

xoxo

  8. Some tales tell of mermaids who would save those that were drowning.
    ...
    Of course, then others say that the Sirens coax people into it.
    I love mermaids, too! I even have my own line of artwork I've been slowly amassing since high school!

  9. These are all really lovely! I love the picture!

    Perhaps you are being encouraged to connect with water more...emotions...cleansing...healing, or perhaps just addressing your fear of drowing? Or maybe, you just like mermaids - lol!

    Ask the cards!

  11. I collect mermaids as well! ....and I, too have dreams about drowning (and sharks)! I have a book about "Landlocked Mermaids" which is what I think I am....a mermaid who lives on land! :)...a fun thought! LOVE your collection!

  12. Mermaids are so beautiful...

    I LOVE that candle holder. And the picture? Stunning.

    BTW, I never can figure out my little point and shoot either. Cameras aren't my forte, that's for sure. LOL
