Be the mermaid you were ment to be in this beautiful handmade mermaid crown. This is made with all real shells, faux pearls and real Swarovski crystals. It even lights up! Theres a small battery pack on the back and the batteries are replaceable. Due to the nature of the product there could be natural flaws that make it unique and one of a kind. It ties in the back with ribbon to hold it on. This item does have some weight to it and also, i do not recommend this being used in water, it purely costume, great for cosplay, faire, photoshoots, etc. Always take cayde off your handmade items with the same love that went into them.
