The tiles are on my fire place the story is we went out for glue and came back with a cast iron fireplace , its very me , I love art nouveau and french style furniture . I done the seahorse after going to a craft fair I wasnt going to buy anything else and was heading out the door when it caught my eye the rest is history as they say i :lol: :lol:

Love your mermaid and you have made a great start on it. The seahorse is just so right too and so lovely as well.
