Description This is an old metal tin that used to hold teabags. I decorated the top in polymer clay and various glass beads in a design that reminds me a bit of seaweed. Like something a mermaid would keep her spare change in, lol.

I coated the top in a layer of Mod Podge to help seal it up, but I think I might add a layer of high gloss to give it some shine. What do you think?

I'd like to see it from another angle.

Did you bake everything as seen? Or separately and then affixed to the tin?

My mermaid likes treasures, so this is a very cool thing.

Thanks! I baked everything right on the tin, after I attached it with liquid Sculpey.

Sorry it took me so long to respond. I'm hoping to upload some more pictures (and more tins) soon, but I have two art festivals this weekend, so I've been crazy busy.
