Bonjour Everyone! I am virtually here in Provence & guest blogging for Fifi!!!

Fshhhh...I am here!!! "VIRTUALLY" in Lovely France! I have been here for the last week. I was so busy running around to different galleries, taking in all the beautiful cafes and finalizing a "TOP SECRET" rendezvous. Although I had ONE major glitch!!! Computer problems! Need I say anymore. NO? Ok! So I hope everyone has been patient and waiting with anticipation to see what I have been up to. I am heading via Train to Provence to see my friend Fifi.

awww...These are just the cutest tiny treasures

These little lovelies were hung in my dear Grandma's home right in her foyer. Every time I walked by I had to stop and say "hi" to each of them. I made up cute little stories about them. I never knew a "True" story existed about them. So here it goes...

They are called The Wee Musicians

The Wee Musicians were painted by the noted artist, Lowell, who was inspired by the following tale:

(size - 4 1/2" x 4")

One of the most celebrated stories surrounding the court of King Arthur of the Round Table is that of the Wee Musicians. Their appearance, legend has it, always brings good fortune.

The most renowned instance in recent history occurred during the childhood of the present Duke of Salisbury. The family fortunes of the ancient house had reached their lowest ebb. Suddenly, the Wee Musicians appeared and revealed themselves to the Royal Child, pointing their instruments to the ancient tower of Salisbury Castle. Learning of this the boy's father had the tower thoroughly searched and was rewarded by the discovery of priceless concealed treasure.


Down through the ages, to this very day, it is said, where ever they appear the Wee Musicians always bring happiness and prosperity.

So that is the cute story about the Wee Musicians which was kept a secret until I got them from her. I feel like it is a sweet little treasure from her. By the way... the little girl playing the piano is my favorite. Which is a shocker because I was actually fired from my piano teacher for not practicing...go figure...I wonder if that had do with the fact I was always doodling & drawing. Hmmm.

Well, I hope seeing these cute Wee Musicians will bring everyone happiness and prosperity.

Au revoir!
