Mermaids Mishap






Meeting with DJ today was great, we actually found time to stitch while talking!  
All I have to do is add the bubbles and I think I'm done.  There is an upper and lower border, but I decided I'm not going to include it.  I also added yellow beads to the flowers and changed the "Mermaids" to glittery purple.  The problem I'm having is....



the pearl necklaces.  I don't like the way they look on the girls - it looks like they have white beards or a huge toothy smile!  
I'm thinking of taking them out and either making more, smaller french knots or maybe adding white beads instead.  Thoughts?  Suggestions?

    I like the idea of beads, your French knots are picture perfect, but beads may look more like pearl necklaces. String a few on a thread and let them "dangle" insted of attaching them individually. You could try just one and see? Great seeing you yesterday!! *Hugs*

    I agree with DJ. I prefer beads - give them a go, I think it'll be work it.

    Sweet little mermaids :) Job well done.

    I agree with everyone else. Let the beads dangle, and make sure you get the smallest beads there are!
