How can a mermaid's home renovation not have shells ...! Well I added some huge shells which are part of my treasured collection from a holiday in one of the best beaches in the world Candolin Beach, Goa.
You can also see glass beads gel and tiny glitter balls all over this mermaid's abode. I cut our an image of the gorgeous mermaid and added her to a glass pebble/cabochon and propped her up on a foam disc.

Carabelle Studio geometrie stencil in many places!

Love how easy it is to create 3 D projects using Graphic 45 papers!
 |
| Framed Graphic 45 Voyage Beneath the Sea |
The project has lots of fussy cut sea weeds, corals and starfish and the gorgeous mermaid has a resin sea horse for company! I made the sea horse using resin, alcohol ink and a chocolate mold!

More resin embellishments..

| Resin Seaweeds, Crackle Paste Bubbles |
The sea weeds were made with silicon molds and resin and colored by adding alcohol ink into the resin mixture before it set.

My favorite view of the home!
 |
| House Shaped Box |
It features a large dome and a beautiful image from Graphic 45 papers which I framed inside it and added a glittery gold border.

Inside the dome are tiny pearls, star sequins and little sea shells.

The backside of the house has the storage compartments.

I kept the roof lightweight on this side as it has to swing open to reveal the shelf inside.

The netting I used had some cool Styrofoam elements embedded and this gave a cool sea foam appearance! The starfish was handmade using molds and airdrying clay and shaped to give more dimension!

I used 3 hinges to hold the 2 halves of the roof and the back half swings up to reveal a shelf which is large enough to hold bottles, ink pads, pens ,little notebooks and what not!
 |
| Drawer inside the roof |
I used danglers from my local fabric shop and attached them using discs of foam.
The main body of the house holds an organizer I made using chipboard pieces .I had to use an antique metal handle from my local hardware shop as the drawer compartment was quite thick and sturdy!
 |

I used 2 pieces of medium weight chipboard to make sturdy parts for the organizer.
 |

I used wet glue as well as strips of card stock to stick the pieces together.

I constructed the compartments in such a way that it will be the perfect storage for my embossing folders .

I love to use corrugated paper to line 3 d projects as it is so easy to go over the edges.

I actually designed the drawer compartment first and then made the "house" to fit over it!!The completed house is 13.5 inches tall , 12.5 inches wide and the "body" is around 7 inches wide.

The roof was the trickiest part to design and I was so thrilled when I got it to work!!
