Love the trolls and the princess!! the tureen is beautiful ....
I love the paintings! Grandness!
I also wanted to add (seems I'm a late commentor, sorry) that:
1. I am very glad you are back posting. I miss your wonderful stories when you do not write :)
2. You are such a warm, beautiful person--I am just stupified at how badly you were treated.
3. It just goes to prove--WE are NOT our parents and do not have to continue nor share their short comings.
I was given away at birth and adopted by an abusive woman--so I understand your pain...
But, I grew up and adopted a child. He is 10 now, and the center of my universe. So you see? They lose. We win :)
You are a beautiful person and I so enjoy getting to know you through your blog.

Wow, Sevensto - you did this in 1945? It makes me think of movies like "The Dark Crystal". Quite fabulous!

I enjoy that illustrator!
I saw examples recently here on this page:

It looks to be just the book you mentioned! I see the original on the page, and your version looks fantastic!
WOW, I loooove those goofy trolls and the tiny, dainty princess! Thank you for sharing :)
The tiles are fantastic! and the tureen is just lovely.
Thank you again for sharing yourself with the world. Your family is fortunate and so are we.
Incredible tiles!
I am sorry that you endured a painful childhood. I hope you've made peace with all those memories.
The tureen is beautiful -- did you make IT, too, or acquire it FOR painting already made?
I'm going to go tell my two boys who were just driving me crazy how much I love them, just to be sure they know. Thank you so much for your openness in these stories of your life.
I absolutely love the tile painting. Beautiful!
Oh my goodness...I grew up in Sweden (1989-1997) and I remember that image of the trolls so clearly that I was quite startled when I saw the picture of your table.
Thank you for sharing!
Regards,
