The Gnomes have a history of inhabiting homes in Northern Europe too----Finland--Norway--Estonia and even Iceland......They are SO much part of their Folklore.

In the more Northern places--the Gnomes have "cousins" called Viking-Gnomes and Trolls.....
Trolls are known to protect one's home from al evil and sickness...
For some unknown reason--they seem to have colonized many of my windowsills all over the place.

They have lived, peacefully, in my Home forever.....I love their presence and the protection they give me.
Such great warriors! They are always at the ready with their swords ans lances and such....BIG--or small....

I have about 50 of them residing here.....with my blessings! The live peacefully, mostly on my windowsills....
And--because they come from the far North--they have a more furry appearance. You know--the colder weather and all that......and they have to always be fighting off the invaders and such...They are SO brave!!!!

Here are some of my "warriors".....ready to go to war for me!
