Absolutely! If you have one of my tails and would like me to recreate it or would like a reprint, I can absolutely do that!
Please submit the application form as you would for a new design and then make a note in the Tail Description section to let me know this will be a recreate or a reprint.
Can you make me more than one tail at a time?
If you are looking for a set of tails that need to specifically match and be produced simultaneously, please email me directly (vancouvermermaid@gmail.com) so I can review your unique situation.
How long do your tails take to make?
10-12 weeks is the rough time frame you can expect before your tail is ready to ship.
I work passionately to bring to life the most authentic mermaid experience I can, however due to the fact that I am neurodivergent and live with chronic pain, I am sometimes slow to respond to emails and comments. I may also require more time to complete work tasks due to the need for unexpected rest days.
I understand from experience that this can be frustrating for some and have chosen to be as upfront as I can so that you may rest assured that I am doing my best and that I greatly appreciate your patronage.
I do not except rush orders at this time.
Can you make me a mermaid tail for ___ monofin?
I make mermaid tails for the Fish Fin, the Luna (size M), the Linden (adult size), and the Mahina (adult size) monofins.
What are your mermaid tails made of?
My mermaid tails are digitally painted in Photoshop and printed onto high-quality white Polyester/Spandex fabric through a process called sublimation printing.
Where do you get your fabric?
You can purchase white Polyester/Spandex fabric online and quick Google search is your best place to start.
Where do you get your tails printed?
If you are looking to print your own tails, you can do a quick Google search of "sublimation printing in [your area]" and that will get you started.
How long will my tail last?
You tail is a work of art and should be treated kindly and with respect. Taking good care of your tail is the best way to keep it looking fresh. Things like harsh environments/chemicals and standing in your tail will age it faster.
Can I swim in my mermaid tail?
Yes, all of my mermaid tails are fully swimmable.
Swimming with a mermaid tail can be dangerous and should never be done alone or without the supervision of someone who can help you should you need it.
