Show me your Sea Pony displays!
« on: January 21, 2016, 06:57:05 AM »
I'm spending my vacation working on getting my pony room established. Even though they still all need spa days, I'm trying to plan ahead and figure out how to fit in the sea ponies. I only have one adult (lacking her shell) and the rest are babies- I think I might have more floaties than babies though. :p just curious to see how others display their sea ponies, since even in their floaties they don't stand up all that well.  :lol:

Some people stand them up in small glass jars, candle holders possibly? Mine are in a box unfortunately!

Some people use egg cartons for their baby sea ponies.

My sea ponies are in glass fruit jars that I cleaned, dyed, sealed and added sea themed stickers to. I filled the jars with smooth glass rocks that you find at craft stores so they can peek over the jar.

Mine are in a box now, but when I had a pony room I displayed them in four large goldfish bowls of different sizes and shapes with mixed blue glass drops in the bottom to help them sit correctly.  I wish I had taken pictures before I packed everything up.

I actually took some styrofoam sheets and glued them together.  Next I drilled out some holes and covered with a pretty blue piece of sheer fabric (going for the ocean look).  I cut X's in the fabric over the holes to place the bottom of the ponies in.  I hope to someday work it into my PE playset.

I can't find the picture at the moment, but my adult sea ponies are all displayed around my sink in shells, with my butterfly mirror behind them. Some are sitting on/in their boxes and some not. The baby seas, sadly, are shoved into the bottom of the main cupboard >< as I have no display room for them.
