5 out of 5 starsAbsolutely adore these clips. Very magical and a great touch to make any hairstyle look regal. The tiny ice crystals are especially realistic.

5 out of 5 starsAbsolutely in LOOOVE with my wings. 💕😭💕 Also I adore the fact that I was messaged about how to properly care for them before I even thought about asking for that information. Fantastic customer service and quick shipping. Will definitely be ordering from again.

5 out of 5 starsJust beautiful! The wings have a nice (but light) weight to them that makes them flutter naturally with my every move. They feel sturdy, and the translucent color and glitter are so eye catching. The seller went out of her way to make sure I was happy with my wings, which I appreciated. And yes, I am very happy with them!

My love of the Fantasy world!
My name is Judy, and I am owner/designer, and creator of Mermaid Sanctuary (Designs). I began my shop on store envy almost a 3 years ago and now decided to expand to Etsy!
I began my journey with mermaids, when as a child, my parents took us to the ocean every year. I would see these mystical beings everywhere, and fell in love!
I now was almost married for 20 years but never made it due to the death of my husband, and very 1st boyfriend, to cancer. With no life insurance, no job, penniless and an autistic 5 year old son to care for, I was in a rut! A family member gave me an old computer where I found Facebook. I decided to open a Facebook group and named it "The Mermaid Sanctuary", and my world changed! Having a contest for the group, I decided the winning prize would be a "mermaid crown", made by me! I never made anything of this nature before, but when the winner posted pictures of her prize, the messages poured in, asking me to please make them one too! Not being able to work outside the home because of my son and problems with grief and starting school, yes, it was a lot, I decided to open a shop. Sounds crazy huh! But I had found my niche! I have done quite well and have been in magazines such as FAE Magazine, had a 7 page spread, and the cover of Conceptual magazine, signed a contract with producers Sid and Marty Krofft, makers of Sigmund and The Sea Monsters, and made all the headpieces for Jouer Cosmetics "Mermaid Palette" advertisement spread, and the list goes on! I've also worked with some of the most influential photographers and models from around the world, not too shabby lol
So I found out, when one door closes, another DOES open!
I work hard, very hard, at my craft. I use quality items in my designs and everything is done myself, hence the 2-3 week waiting period for items that are custom or items in my shop that have sold and I have to restock. No two designs will be the same, and that's the magic! I also have branched out to my friends with horns and antlers, as well as the faerie realm! My latest additions to my shop are FAERIE WINGS!!! All galvanized steel frames and soldered veining, no tape here!
So, my friends, if it's quality over quantity, something "out of the box", and a real love of the work and the people who buy from me, you've come to the right place!
It's a pleasure meeting you!
Judy^^
