Mint green mermaid purse

For Sale: [link]


I love making this purse and it was also a pain to make it too. I bought two tubes of beads to make this purse and ended up using 4 tubes. These tubes are 3.99 a piece. So I put way to much time and money into making this purse but I still think it looks great. I went and made a flower to go with it too.

I have made this purse and seen it before but its handle was too short and it was to big. So I made the purse smaller and the strap longer. I also wanted it to have a flap and just figured out how to make one.

Here [link] is what the other purse looks like. This one everyone makes it. If you go to ETSY its all over the place. I have never seen the pattern for this. I learned how to make it off of youtube. I can't read a crochet pattern very well. All my crochet items are me just figuring it out or watching someone on youtube.


Let me know what you think.
