      Thank you so much! The plastic gives the tail such realistic movement in the water!

    watched ur tutorials backward so saw the second one first, as a full silicone tail owner i will definitly be trying this. I wish i would have seen these tutorials before spending so much money!!!

      Professional silicone mer-tails are definitely worth it, but it is rewarding to create your own too!

    You could also sand the two surfaces that you need to glue and they should stick.

      Thanks for your suggestion! I did try that off camera, but alas it still didn't want to adhere the rubber and plastic!

    How many silicone tubes did your mermaid tail use?

    is there any reason you didnt glue the shelf plastic on top of each other for a thicker tail? do you think it would be too stiff?

      It could be worth a shot, I wanted more movement since the flippers are so stiff.

    hello I loved it ♥ ️ where can I get that black tape that you placed on the edge of the plastic

      Thank you! That is a tubing for gas that can be found in stores like lowes or home depot!

    How did the silicone hold up overtime? Did it eventually peel off?

    • @DoThisMakeThat

      It doesn't peel on the fabric, but there was a small amount of lift at the bottom of the fluke. It adhered again with a dab of silicone.

    I'm sorry but it doesn't look realistic
