...mermaid grotto ~ part 1

...can you hear them?

do you hear the sirens call??

...come to the sea,

~ the sea ~

the beautiful sea...

   

   

oh mere ~ maidens,

my heart longs for a way to be there with you.

but,

that is not always possible.

so

to ease my siren desire,

i designed these paper dollies to delight!

 until i can get back to the sea,

 those mighty waves,

 the warm soft sand...

 and the mer's.

   

these elegant creatures have long entranced me.

yes,

they are a part of me ~

their mystery,

and

OH!

those beauteous tails!!

 

  

  it is no wonder

 really,

that they have found a way into my creative outpourings once again...

 

 

for it is they

who inspired my romantic ship,

from the very heartbeat i laid eyes upon it...

i think THEY brought it to me

with their mer tides

and filled my mind's eye with what a romantic sea worthy ship should look like...

i am truly mesmerized with how they turned out

a paper santos/mermaid creation.

and to see them dance ~

why,

it is poetry in motion...

  

with every spin

they will lull you ~

and with every glistening sparkle,

they

will

woo

you...

chanting their mermaid melodies

l

you surrender.

now,

it just so happens

that

my dear mother will be arriving for a short visit this week

as Nathan will be graduating HS.

a right of passage that she simply was not going to miss!

i am sooo very proud of my dear son,

and

i am thrilled she is coming!!

  

i love when she comes 

so i can transform a special space for her to spend time and rest.

(well, there is one bonus in renting, you never are stuck with the same room over and over!!)

can you maybe

guess the inspiration of this room?

hhhmmmmm....

  

did you perhaps, guess ~

MERMAIDS??!!

and do you also spy,

SWANS?!

as that is one of my adored fascinations too! 

elegant and oh-so graceful...

   

 

i am calling this room the "mermaid grotto"

and these lovely mer's and sea swans will reside there.

but,

you will have to wait until next white wednesday to visit were they will water dance  :)

tee,hee!
