Mer-Mazing!
Hey I put that joke first😂
in fact I was the first person to comment on this video
I Know right
@@thetunebella6675 I’m not here to compete We just have good minds that think the same.
I did it first anyway faty
@@DebbieSp19 ok
Kind of crazy that Toya’s hot glue design is better than the official Mattel mermaids
It’s called Mako mermaids sorry
I now right 😂
Yeah
@@gl1tchCh4rmit's not it's called you're ugly
@@gl1tchCh4rmthey were talking about the mermaid dolls that Mattel makes
Absolutely brilliant! I definitely will have to try the fins with the glue sticks that already have color and glitter in them.
Oh yeah.. thanks for that idea. No need to add paint but painting is another way to blend as you like. I actually have those multi colored hot glue sticks. The craftings gonna be lit for this one. Gotta love Toya
You could try and make a wire outline and then fill in with hot glue and it may be pose-able that way
she looks amazing with the tail!! the colors definitely give off sunset vibes to me! what brand of hot glue do you use? every time i use hot glue for something like this, it ends up really sticky a week later
You could try using baby powder to reduce stickiness if that happens again
Oh that’s so weird! I’ve never had that happen before. I usually just use a generic brand from a craft store. The only thing I could think of that could cause that is temperature. Like if they’re stored somewhere sunny or you live in a warm area?? Not sure!
@@_patchwork_projects_ That’s what I thought too! How is the finished object being stored or displayed?
We HAVE to see the other idea of the cloth tail and hot glue fins I love how this turned out its beautiful
Wow, that’s amazing! Do you think you might make a small mermaid area, or a mermaid inspired doll room? Happy Mermay!
Check out these two videos:
czcams.com/video/V9EAQroZXN8/video.html Room
czcams.com/video/H36OvVfG324/video.html grotto
@@MyFroggyStuff hey I love your voice it's so pretty 🥰
@@MyFroggyStuff I realized I forgot to add “another” to my question. Oops! I had already seen the room and grotto before, so I was wondering if we would see another room type craft for this MerMay. I do understand that doll rooms take a lot of time, so if you already have videos planned for the month, or might just not have the mental energy, I understand! But if you did want to make something that wasn’t a full on room, you could create a small dock on a patch of sand. Thank you!
Gorgeous, so effective! the paint work really finishes it, but I did like the unpainted version - it looked crystalline and magical! :D
Wow!!! This has to be one of your coolest crafts yet! Totally amazing! Not sure if I would have the patience to make that many tiny glue dots, lol, but I should try this.
Can u imagine I’ve being watching this channel since I was lil boy😭😭 omg u guys are just spectacular and brilliant
Looks great! I think I would have done the base in a think flexible fabrics and added the glue scales overtop to keep the flexibility and you can have a bit more space between the glue dots.
I used to watch your videos when I was younger (somewhere around 2012-13), I was curious and looked you guys up to see if the channel was still active, AND TO MY SURPRISE IT STILL IS, I’m 19 today and this brings me so much joy and nostalgia. 😭❤️
Hi Toya,glue sticks are available in colors with glitter. I like your mermaid 🧜♀️ tail.
This is the most mer-mazing hot glue mermaid tail I have ever seen! I would make it right now if I had a silicon mat! 🧜🏾♀️
Matching hidden doll room?
Love the mermaid tail so creative!
Toya, Nothing you do could ever be a fail!!! Beautiful work as always....Everyone in the doll world knows that you are the GOAT queen of crafting! Keep up the amazing work!!
Hi toya.
Wow it's looking great .
Lovely look .
Hot glue can make so many creative things.
Love your videos.
Have a great day.
That ended up looking amazing! How perfect for MerMay. 😁 I actually liked the way the glue looked before you painted it, too…it reminded me of that pebble-y privacy glass you see in bathrooms, or at a public pool.
OMG this video is mer-azing
Mermaidrizing
Amazing Project 👍🏼
As soon as I got the notification I tapped quicker then Toya could say ✨what's up fabsome. Bestie's✨
Same I was watching h2o just add water and I was so excited
Haha so funny I do the same
And also h20 is a good series
Another awesome craft, you did the darn thang girl 🥰😉🤗
WHY DOES THIS VIDEO BRING ME SO MUCH NOSTALGIA!!!!!!!, DO YALL STILL REMEMBER WHEN FROGGY MADE A MERMAID TAIL FOR SOPHIE AND CHLOE????
I'm blown away by the whole thing!! the tail looks so pretty on the doll. You have amazing talent and your videos are so cool to watch!!!
Gorgeous mermaid costume. I already made my miniself a swimsuit that includes a mermaid tail. See you on your next video I know you'll get the your dolls dream mermaid design next time. :D
I LOVE IT! Beautifully done. She looked gorgeous lying on the beach. 🙂
Thank you for giving me a reason to reuse my hot glue gun! Now all I need is a silicone mat =)
You can try backing paper or aluminium foil instead I think it could work
if u have that paper that stickers are on u can always use that
i think a good idea would be to make a mold the dolls legs and then fill the mold with a silicone that’s slightly dense but not dense enough that it flops back into place and not light or thin enough that it flips everywhere. Once it’s filled remove the mold from the silicone and this will be your tail base. Once done, carefully cut the legs off of the doll just to leave the torso, arms and head. Now in any way you’re comfortable with, wether that’s hot glue or something else, attach the silicone tail base to the cut torso. If you want you can add a few layers of liquid latex to cover the visible lines and blend the tail in with the skin. Now i’d either draw a tail design and stick a thin see through plastic sheet and make a tail with clay by putting the clay on the plastic sheets above the drawing we drew. Wait for the clay to dry and try and take that off the sheet and make a mold over that to fill with a dense silicone or a thin silicone so it’s floppy. You could also just draw your tail design (or trace it) onto a piece of paper and put a thin sheet of plastic over the drawing, next get some liquid latex and paint over the plastic sheet and trace out the tail with the silicone over the plastic sheet. Do multiple layers so once you do a layer, wait for it to dry and do another and repeat until it’s as thick as you’d like it. If you do the moms method or the silicone method, take the new silicone or latex fin and stick it to the tail in any way you’d like. If you use latex i recommend adding a light powered on top since first and dust can stick to latex but latex is easier than making a mold but it’s harder to display or play with. Once you stick the fin to the tail you can now paint it. This method is easier to play with since in the video, she put the tail around the doll’s legs which decreases the mobility an actual fish or mermaid has. With silicone the tail can now easily flex and bend like a fish or dolphin would instead of having legs inside with a knee joint. You could also however do the whole process she did, make the hot glue mermaid tail, but once made and painted, cut the legs off of the doll and fill the hot glue tail with silicone but not all the way to the top and leave a few cm space so you can put glue down there to stick on the doll so the tail covers the area you cut. So the tail is now floppy and has more of a floppy mobility. Glue or stick the silicone to the doll and if you left a space, the hot glue tail should come up the torso a bit so you now cannot see the area you cut if you haven’t painted the tail yet. I recommend pairing the tail whilst the doll still has legs. The only flaw to this method is you obviously won’t be able to take off the tail and use the doll for something else.
How funny I'm working on a mermaid tale also, this idea is brilliant and way faster, a day 😄 try a week! My sensors are sensing another mako/h20 project coming, hoping to be right 🤭 thank you again Toya fabsome craft again.
O👏🏽M👏🏽G👏🏽 you didn’t just make an H2O mermaid?! I loving it so much right now😍😍😍. It actually look close to the original tail
I’ve been meaning to watch this video and I am glad I finally did. This is incredible!! I can’t believe the end result. I’m not super into mermaids but I can appreciate the art and work it took take make it!
Interesting! How else are you going to know if it works unless you try? Good job!
Hey
I would really love if you could make a cottagecore room for your dolls!
Thanks.
Your mermaid looks good!!! You are soo talented. I would never had thought to use hot glue to make a tail. Wow!
This is (SO COOL) its also scary but in a good way!
This craft is so Mer-Mazing!
I love mermaids and crafts I love this video please make more mermaid videos
Gorgeous! Such a fabsome result.
The idea is amazing, reason why people love your channel amazing stuff you do with hot glue.

Omg I haven't seen one off your vids in a long time I got so much nostalgia. From watching you as a kid, to seeing you now as young adult and hearing your way of speeking change is wild to me. This hot glue idea was genius! I almost want to go back to making doll crafts after watching this. I'm so glad you're still making videos!
OMG!! YOU ARE BRILLIANT!!! talk about a labor of love and the end results are fantastic!! I love the colors you chose. The top is gorgeous and the fins are stunning!! What a beautiful project! Love your choice of model , beautiful doll!!

Soooooo cute 💗🤩
Gorgeous work
amazing 💛 really a perfect idea for MerMay 💛
thanks 💛
wow all that hard work finally worked
and I love love that how the tail turned out and I also love the colour of the tail
it reminds me of the sunset
Awesome. Thanks for sharing 🤩🤩🤩
I really love this mermaid tail out of hot glue. It has so much details. Now, here are my Pros and Cons:
Pros:
Amazing details, great job of making the mermaid tail, the fin was my favorite of all parts of the tail. Great work.
The pattern was definitely a plus, Great for sewing a mermaid tail using fabrics.
Cons:
I really wanted the tail to be flexible and stretchy so it can fit other dolls like curvy, tall, petite and IT toys girls
Personally, I would have preferred the mermaid tail to be a little longer so it can fit IT toys girls. But, that's just my personal opinion and reference.
I would have loved the mermaid scales to be realistic and real-looking but, that's just me.
Overall, I really like this mermaid tail crafts for Mer-May. It looks so real. Love it.
P.S Are you going to use this mermaid tail for mermaids in another dimension on Sommer and Cali? If you use it, that would look so cool!
Omgosh! So ingenious! 🤩🤩🤩
I’m glad she used a black doll because this makes me think of the new version of the little mermaid.
I love the colors. I like her better than most of the commercial ones that are out right now.
Beautiful!
I love that creative idea! I thought of creating a flexible rubbery mermaid tail only I thought about using a mold for it for your doll! But that works too!
O my gosh that mermaid tail is so cool!!!!!!!!!!💙💙💙💙
Gorgeous! I'm simply astounded by your creativity.
Dear Toya: you are 100% my FAV CZcamsr ever! I am really inspired my your channel and I am starting my own! Love from Apple’s toys
That was fantastic!
That's amazing!!
I love it it's gorgeous
OMG incredible!!!
I did like the crystal clear mermaid 😁 but the metallic really made it pop. Well done!
I love it! It reminds me of something lagoona blue would wear!
Can you try 5-minute crafts and troom troom Barbie hacks if you haven’t already ? I think it will be a fun video
This looks so good! Especially the fins :D
