Speaking of fabric goodness! My new Shellusion mermaid tops are now LIVE on www.shopvancouvermermaid.com! All of the mermaid vibes without the hassle of REAL shells!
they're amazing, can confirm
I'm so excited you made the video!!! 🤩It's so cool to see your updated tips with the baaaaby, Chester! I don't think the u 4 years ago imagined this much change and milestones accomplished. 😆
I’d love to see an updated fabric vs silicone video!
Yes! That would be a good one to make! Thank you for the suggestion and for watching! ❤️
That's what I was gonna suggest too ^^
Mermaid tail fixes and sewing specific to stretchy fabric for mermaid tails would definitely be a video I would appreciate! I’ve been sewing since I was a child but haven’t worked with much stretchy fabrics
I'm probably never going to own a tail (I spend most of my time with a cane), but I love learning this stuff anyways. My ADHD brain soaks it up like a bone-dry sponge.
Good call on the stain removal 👍👍👍👍 Hearing the fin rip had to be THE WORST 😱 NOOOO!!! My brain heard "you can have a lot more" mermaid tails and was like...well Courtney said so, buckle up everyone. This was a very helpful remake!
I was devastated! I knew it would be fixable but I still wanted to cry. 😭
I thank my years of ballet point shoes 🩰 sewing skills. Honestly came so in handy with this hobby/lifestyle. This is a really great video with great tips 🙌🏽
I remember watching the first video when it came out, it seems like so long ago! I’m so glad you made a remake! It was always one of my favorites ❤
That means so much to me! Thank you for watching! 🥹❤️
This was a really helpful video! One of my favorite videos of yours was "top 5 mermaiding items" and I would love to see an updated version if that list has changed at all!
Yes! I enjoyed making that one too! I’ll definitely add it to the list for an update! Thank you for watching! ❤️
I think I have the same little mermaid towel and I will now use it as my soft surface
Thanks for the tips! I know it’s a little late but happy thanksgiving!🍁🦃
You’re welcome! Thank you! ❤️
This!! Thank you for sharing all of the good things - tails are precious and worth looking after! Definitely sharing this on my socials, cus I couldn't have said it better! ♥
My past mermaid tails, all fabric, I would but scoot or hop. I never put anything sift beneath me on rough surfaces, never washed, no attention to stains, didn't dry it and it lived in the garage. I remember holes in it. No pill shaving what so ever…Looking back on it, kid me did not know how to take care of it and I loved it so much back then. But this really helps because I bought a tail yesterday and k ow I know how to properly take care of it. I think I will ever use Silicon tails, but a fabric tail will bring me just as much joy!
I was so happy to see this! Its a nice trip down memory lane🥰. I remember you saying that you weren't one for a bunch of extra fins, would you mind sharing what changed that? Have a wonderful day💙💚
I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! I can definitely make a video talking about the added fins and my views for sure!
As always thank you for the wonderful advice! It would be great for those who don't know much about sewing, to just have a brief tutorial up about how to repair your mermaid tail! 💙
Taking so many notes! Thanks for teaching us how to care for our tails!
My pleasure! Happy to help! ❤️❤️
Let me tell you, I shrieked when you pulled out the Kondo folding!
I use the swim leggings for my own convenience lol. But I did catch myself a few times in the hotel whirlpool. My my new fin got a whole summer’s worth of use in just a overnight hotel stay lol. My grandniece’s forgot their fin’s, so I let them use mine they had fun. But i did get a few little holes on the bottom of my mono fin. I have the Fin Fun pro mono Fin love it, l can’t take pressure points on the tops of feet. Anyway I wished you made fin cover’s to fit Fin Fun mono’s, I like to match lol. I just love your swim leggings & top. ❤️🧜🏻♀️🇺🇸
Hey Courtney!!! Love your videos so much😍 I was inspired by seeing you make Chester and have been thinking about trying to make a fabric tail of my own! I was wondering where you order your fabric from?
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoy my content. I don’t publicly share that information because the last time I did I was no longer able to get my fabric as they were constantly sold out. It put my business in a very difficult position. Thanks for understanding.
Thanks for the video :D I'm curious about a tour of your NEW swimming bag - what is in your pool go-bag now and did it change since you last covered this topic?
Thank you for watching! I’ll definitely add that to my list especially since I really love my new swim bag and set up!
Ahaha me pulling on my finfun to try and get my linden fin in it with no concern for gentleness cause i can’t get it on without some force 😅 sorryyyy
Update halfway through the vid and I’m realizing how mean i am to my tail oops!
