DZFANTASY'S SEPTEMBER GIVEAWAY - RAINBOW MERMAID FANTASY SCULPTURE!

Rainbow Mermaid

This newly created fiber sculpted "RAINBOW MERMAID" is my DZFANTASY "GIVEAWAY" for the month of SEPTEMBER. PLEASE NOTE: Since I am going to be on vacation starting October 1st, this giveaway won't be running for the full month of September.

I am running this giveaway from SEPT. 1st - SEPT. 25th!! The giveaway will end at 12 midnight on Sept. 25th. Due to the fact that I won't have time to wait for the randomly chosen winner to reply within 3 days.

I would like anyone, who cares to enter, to leave either their email or some other means of contacting them immediately after the drawing. I want to be able to ship the mermaid prior to going on vacation. THANKS!

This enchanting mermaid is one of my 6.5" tall wall style mermaids. She has a loop on the back of her neck, so that you can either hang her on the wall, dangle her from a bit of colorful ribbon or clear fishing line, or she can also be displayed by standing her on a shelf, with her "tacked" to the wall. She is NOT freestanding!

Her upper body/face are 100% silk fabric. Her face has been individually hand-drawn, needle-sculpted and hand-painted by me. Her eyes and lips have a coat of crystal clear lacquer, which gives her a very life-like look and shine.

Her tail fabric is a gorgeous, rainbow batik fabric. Her colorful hairdo was designed out of one of my favorite Italian yarns, and has a metallic thread running throught the soft wispy eyelash...which gives her a very magical look. Her accents are Swarovski crystals, real sea shells, and tiny glass seed beads, which have been hand-sewn onto the mermaid. She even has a Swarovski crystal belly button.

GOOD LUCK!!

Pin Size: Approx. 2.75" X 2.75"

This GIVEAWAY will be running from AUGUST 16TH - SEPTEMBER 16th - 12 midnight CDT!

All you have to do to win is leave a comment in this post! You can leave your email, if you wish, but it is not necessary. It would just help to speed up notifying the winner, but NOT a requirement. It also would be fun to hear why you'd like to win this "giveaway"! BE SURE TO CHECK OUT MY OTHER "GIVEAWAYS" IN THE RIGHT HAND COLUMN UNDER DZFANTASY GIVEAWAYS!

On August 17th, 2008, a WINNER'S name will be randomly picked from all the entries! The "winner's" name will be posted out here on DZFANTASY, and winner will have 5 days in which to contact me via email at dzfairies@msn.com to claim the "fairy face" pin. If the winner doesn't get in touch with me within the 5 days, a new name will be randomly drawn from the remaining entries.

The drawing is for one of my original designed, "butterfly fairy" face pins! This "butterfly fairy" is full of bright colors, and will go with just about any outfit...! These pins are also fun to wear on a hat or attach to a purse for a bit of magic wherever you go!

Her face is 100% silk, which I have hand-drawn, needle-sculpted and hand-painted. The face has been sprayed with a matte finish sealer, so you won't have to worry about it running or smearing if you should get caught in a bit of rain. The wings are lightly stuffed with acrylic fiberfill, top-stitched into a design, and have inner wire armatures.

Her colorful hairdo is a fun, funky yarn, with "poofs" of color in the texture. Her colorful antennae were designed using tiny, colorful glass seed beads, and a 4mm Swarovski crystals at the top of each antennae.

The pin's back is a half-circle of texturized brass to which the wings and the pin clasp have been cemented to.

SHE IS LOTS OF FUN, AND YOU WILL BE SURE TO RECEIVE A LOT OF COMPLIMENTS!

HEY, EVERYBODY, THANKS FOR ALL YOUR LOVELY COMMENTS. HOWEVER.....a lot of you are STILL NOT LEAVING YOUR NAMES, AND A MEANS OF CONTACTING YOU!

I want everyone to have a fair chance of being the lucky winner of this month's MERMAID.....SO PLEASE, PLEASE, ..... follow the steps below!!

To enter the drawing, please be sure to complete each STEP below to ensure your entry into the drawing. Any entries that DO NOT follow the STEPS below, can not be entered, as I would have no means of contacting the winner.

This is the smallest of my "wall" style mermaids. She measures 6.5" tall, and her tail fin span is 5". Her upper body and face are 100% silk fabric. I individually hand-drew, needle-sculpted and hand-painted her face. Her eyes and lips have a coat of crystal clear lacquer which gives her a very "life-like" look and shine.

Her tail fabric is a quality batik fabric in shades of aqua. She has a lovely, long flowing hairdo, which I designed out of two different Italian yarns. One is a soft, wispy "eyelash" style yarn, and the other is a sparkling/glistening yarn, which makes her look as if she just come out of the sea!

Her accents are real sea shells in her hair, necklace and waist accent, along with Swarovski crystals, and tiny glass seed beads. She has a loop on the back of her neck for either hanging on the wall, or to dance from a bit of clear fishing line or ribbon. She may also be displayed standing on a shelf, if she leans against something or is tacked to the wall. She is NOT freestanding. You may also move her arms up or down a bit, as well as her tail fins.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL!
