So I suppose it was really only a matter of time before I got stuck into crafting up some mermaid fins. After all, I totally wanted to be a mermaid when I was a kid. And over the last few weeks we’ve touched on so many other childhood party favourites like unicorns, seahorses and stars that it wasn’t going to be long before mermaids (or at least their pretty tails) made an appearance!

But don’t go thinking that these beauties are just for kids to enjoy – they’re also perfect for the young at heart! My birthday is coming up very fast and you can bet I’ll be putting these fancy fins to good use on my cupcakes. Age is just a number after all, or at least that’s what I keep telling myself as the years fly by and I get ever older haha! 😉

Flip each tail over and stick a toothpick to the back with a piece of tape (make sure at least half the toothpick hangs off the bottom edge of the mermaid tail).
