This pattern includes the line work and instructions to make a 4″, 6″ and 9″ version of this bottle. The “Mermaid Tears” bottles are the first design in a series of “Potion Bottles” that I will be creating. While it was initially intended as a Halloween decoration, I think it would make a year round conversation piece in any bathroom or nautical setting. I hope you enjoy creating it!

The largest bottle is approximately 9” tall and is cut from 1/4” thick MDF. A piece this size would look elegant sitting on an easel in a bathroom, with pretty little shells and pearls scattered at its base, or even as the central focus of a lovely wreath, surrounded by shells, strung pearls and a bow made of ‘netting’. (You can buy a plastic mesh bath ‘pouf’ at the dollar store and unravel it to make the bow. Wouldn’t that look amazing?)

(This pattern uses DecoArt Americana paints and mediums.)

We have wood surfaces for use with this pattern as well as a money saving SUPER COMBO (which includes 1 of each wood surfaces, the mailed paper pattern, and the set of ocean charms) in the related product links below.
