"Lil' Laura" was carved and painted by Sheila Cates. This is her smallest mermaid to date (11/17/05). Sheila said "It was quite a challenge to carve her this tiny, but I think my efforts were well worth it. She is just 5 inches tall and is a petite 3/4 oz. She has glass hat pin style eyes and quality hardware."
