Fish Tales Hangie Danglie

Here is a little fun thing for a swap called Fish Tales Hangie Danglie. I made a watercolor of a mermaid on one side and a collage on the back side so either side could show. I bought a fishing bobber and some lures. I carefully cut the hooks so they would not hurt anyone. I also strung together some beads and little sea shells.
The little images are from Ten Two Studios( April Fish), a Russian cigarette card with a fish on it, and the back ground is a fish label from a fish market.

I love it, Livia! It's a gorgeous little watercolor, and I love the clever fish hook idea! The collage on the back is great, too! Bravo!!
