Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
Little Red Riding Hood
Jack and the BeanstalkOh how I love fairy tales
They are a magical part of growing up
Stories handed down from generation to generation
Timeless stories, loaded with drama and excitement
Always ending in good triumphing over bad
My favorite haunt is old worldly bookshops and market fairs
I find lovely old fashioned children' s books and get inspired
By the beautiful illustrations.
Here are a few fairy tale creation's
love and light Marie
Beautiful! I found an old Russian fairy tale book at a thrift store last year. It has the most gorgeous illustrations.
ReplyDeleteOh, the Snow White is amazing. That Jack in the beanstalk is still one of my favorites. I love seeing all your creations, Marie!
ReplyDeleteI love your little red riding hood and Jack and the beanstalk, its interesting that these fairytales are the same in the UK & New Zealand and most probably elsewhere as well. Have a lovely day.
ReplyDeleteLove them all!! I'm also going to watch your tutorial later this evening once the girls are in bed, I can't wait...
ReplyDeleteohh my goodness how precious!!!
ReplyDeleteWow!
Oh yes, fairy tales are such a childhood gift, I am truly grateful that they are a part of our life.
ReplyDeleteYour creations are so very beautiful! I will be following along with your blog now, and I have a feeling I will be bringing out my felting needles much more often. Thank you for the wonderful inspiration!
I love them all! Love, Barbara

ReplyDeleteCorina
These are so neat and what fun for children.
ReplyDeleteYou are such a talented artist.They are truly beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI bought a second hand book years ago, called Folk Tales of all Nations. It has lots of stories from 42 different countries. What amazed me was how the same story, such as Little Red Riding Hood can vary so much in details between each country. It was printed in 1939, so some stories would be toned down now a days, but definitely a good read.
ReplyDeleteLove your interpretation of each of these well loved stories.
i love your snow white and dwarves. it is just magical, my son would stare at it for hours...
ReplyDeleteThey are all wonderful ... and that jack and the beanstalk! And the dwarves!!! So enchanting.
ReplyDeleteI love your beautiful creations! They are simply magical! It makes me want to climb into the storybook. Thank you for sharing your talents!
ReplyDeletethese are so very beautiful, your work is incredible
ReplyDeleteLovely work, evocative of a child's illustrated fairy tale. I needle felt as well, but my style is completely different than yours. That is one of the great things about the medium- the range of styles.
