Announcement    Yes, I make each & every one of these with all natural Seashells! I love to use pearls & an ocean of other Treasures from the Sea, and I'm inspired by the 1800's nautical art of "Sailors Valentines" (which is how I started with these, over a decade ago!)

ABOUT:

Mermaids Baubles is where you will find Unique handcrafted works of art using Sea glass, Shells, Beads & genuine Gifts from the Sea.

I have always been intrigued by the exquisite love tokens given by a sailor to his beloved. Enjoy a gift from the sea with my one-of-a-kind Sailor's Valentine inspired creations.

I LOVE creating Custom Orders: If you don't see *exactly* what you are looking for, simply click on "Request Custom Item" ... I would find it delightful to create a sea-inspired item just for you.
