    Amendment to the sales information: So as to avoid any problematic issues with Patreon, what we will do moving forward is it will be first comment that gets the tail/tail slot. If there are additional interested parties I will add you to a private list and you will be first in line for the next tail/slot and will have first refusal.
    Sorry for the sudden change!

    2:30 I love sparklegirl designs! I have two pairs of her leggings and I adore them both.
    The quality of the product as well as the quality of her customer service is phenomenal

      She’s just amazing. I feel honored to get to be a finbassador for her-like I can feel confident in supporting her that I won’t regret it later haha because she’s so awesome.

    The boning sounds really cool, probably the first time I’ve been interested in accessory fins. Good luck with the new adventure 😊

    I love the shoutout to Amy of Sparklegirl Costume! She’s such an awesome person, and I feel so lucky to get to be a finbassador for her. I love seeing the way you are moving the fabric tail art industry forward by coming up with really key things that have revolutionized and will revolutionize again the whole tail making world. You bring so much magic into the world. Even if there are people who buy tails and don’t respect mermaiding, all of us who revere the magic are still here. The magic is just as strong as ever and it won’t go away. I’m so excited about the things you revealed in this video!!!!

    Your tails are always so stunning, but I also have to say you look so great with your wig. :)

    • @CourtneyMermaid

      Thank you! I am so pleased with the new wig. It fits like an absolute dream and I feel like it really completes the look I was going for.

    So yeah I'm totally curious about the gel coating but I'll wait! Looking forward to seeing the vid about that. ☺️
    So glad you have a local distributor now, how exciting!!!
    I'm hoping the new tail is spooky theme, just in time for October, but that's just because I love spooky season!
    Thanks for another great video, wishing you all the best! 🖤🧜‍♀️

    all these little innovations are so smart, im suprised people haven't being doing them already!!

    • @CourtneyMermaid
      @CourtneyMermaid  9 місяців тому +3

      It takes time to figure out what will work and what won't. I'm constantly doing what I can to innovate with the tools I have and get creative. I am so happy with the discoveries I've made and grateful for the help I've had as well!

      It's epic and makes life so much better. Now I don't have to worry about it holding on to half the lake every time I go and I can use the tail again sooner and travel with it easier. It's such a blessing!

    Wow, this is so cool! The idea of putting boning in the fins is genius! I can't wait to watch your video with more info about the gel coating. Your videos inspired me so much when I started mermaiding two years ago and they still do. 💕 And I'm still trying to figure out how to get my hands on a Shellusion top here in Germany 😉

  • @greenjacket6688

    When I say this is REVOLUTIONARY I mean it. The boning idea was absolutely stellar, AND THE MAGIC GEL??? I’m dead. The innovation is EPIC.

      Thank you! I’m so glad you are as excited about it as I am! 🤩

    This has to be life changing to not constantly worry about scuffing your tail! And it helps the longevity of a tail as well. Genus!!!

  • @Ourodracos
    @Ourodracos 9 місяців тому +1

    The boning on the larger fins is such a good idea, how has this not been done before???

    • @cyaneablue9984
      @cyaneablue9984 9 місяців тому

      I’m not sure about other makers, but I know Finfolk also uses boning in their pectoral fins. In haute couture we live by them! Just makes sense for mer fashion too.😊

    The regular public thinks knockoff from china is the same as a hand made work of art. You are doing the right thing!
