Magical Fairy Tales

 

Fairy tales have a wonderful secretive power. They draw magic into our lives and inspire us with a sense of wonder. Enchantment, magical spells, dwarfs, giants, witches and always the triumph of good over evil have fascinated humanity for centuries.

As a little girl in Germany my childhood was filled with fairy tales and magic. Every night my grandmother or my mother would read a fairy tale to me. I loved to hear them over and over again.

My grandmother’s Brother Grimm's fairy tale book is still one of my most cherished possessions.

Opening the precious book with the wonderful pictures is like stepping into a world of magic.

Fairy tales shaped my life, teaching me to dream, believe and love.

At an early age I learned that all things magical require faith.

Fairy tales have been passed down from mother to daughter, father to son, for hundreds of years. Our ancestors talk to us through fairy tales, reawakening memories that go beyond childhood into past lives reminding us of the trans-formative power of stories.

My love of fairy tales inspired the creation of Rumpelstiltskin.

Rumpelstiltskin, Spinning Straw to Gold

Birthdate: July 21, 2025 

Always tell the truth!

Take responsibility for your actions.

Once upon a time in the Grimm fairy tale "Rumpelstiltskin", a miller tells the king that his daughter can spin straw into gold. The king locks her in a tower room filled with straw and orders her to spin it into gold by morning or face death.

There she sat crying in despair when a little man appeared and offered to help in exchange for her necklace. The next morning, the king is amazed, but now he wants more gold to be spun. The little man returns again, this time asking for her ring in exchange.

On the third night, she must spin even more straw into gold, and if successful, will become the king's wife. This time the little man wants her firstborn child as a reward.

After she becomes queen and has a child, Rumpelstiltskin appears to claim the child, but the queen begs for more time. He gives her three days to guess his name, or he gets the child. By chance she learns his name is Rumpelstiltskin, and he vanishes in fury.

This little Rumpelstiltskin chooses good over evil.

He let go of his desire for magic and control.

Rumpelstiltskin and the Queen become good friends and live happily ever after.

Rumpelstiltskin is about 7” tall. He was individually handcrafted on the Big Island of Hawaii with the greatest love and respect for the Grimm’s fairy tale.

Rumpelstiltskin wears long brown crocheted pants, purple crocheted elf shoes and hat, a beige shirt and purple vest.

Rumpelstiltskin’s body is made out of doll skin and stuffed with high quality poly fill. The body is wired for flexibility. The eyes and mouth are intricately embroidered onto the face. All accessories were individually hand crafted.
Rumpelstiltskin is not a dress up doll. All clothing and accessories are sewn and/or glued onto him.

Doll care: Gently brush the dolls and their clothing with a soft toothbrush to remove dust. Always brush the faces and bodies upwards towards the hair.

Rumpelstiltskin is a one of a kind Hawaiian Art Dolls and comes with his spinning wheel, a booklet and certificate of authenticity. He is a collector’s items bringing you the spiritual power of fairy tales.

Every bit of Rumpelstiltskin has been lovingly handcrafted to create a new friend who will last a lifetime.

Rumpelstiltskin is ready to be your new friend and spin his way into your heart.
