This custom piece holds all that was scary when I was a child. My mother ,use to read us from Grimm's Fairy Tales...she was amazing, acting out all the parts in different voices...we would gasp at some of the more graphic, scary descriptions, of things that definitely go bump in the night....Our childhood was rich in fantasy , and sparked a love of literature from an early age without the need for Television and special effects....our imagination was enough to entertain us ...

This is my litany also!! Those stories and fables and fairy tales were soooo wonderful. Our imaginations soared - better for not having T.V. and a lot of plastic toys. Being of WWII vintage, I remember that there were few toys anyway! This is one of my favorite things - I have done it too, but without more than a simple border.
I am discovering I love NP with a book or fairy tale theme. Thank you for sharing, Gail. Takes me back to all those fairy tales I loved as a child.
