A miniature showing the bedroom from the fairy tale "The Princess and the Pea." Forty colorful mattresses tower over a chair. Two ladders lashed together so they reach the top lean against the pile. A nightgown, candle, and book "The Gift of Sensitivity" rest on the chair. An open pea pod with one pea missing is on the floor under the bed.

A tower of miniature mattresses from the princess and the peas seen from above. The purple bedding is crumpled as if someone has just gotten up. A ladder leans against the colorful mattresses and the floor is so far away it is blurry.

Close-up of one corner of a miniature bed piled with colorful mattresses. An open pea pod made from paper and beads lies on the floor under the bed. Part of a scene based on "The Princess and the Pea" called "The Gift of Sensitivity."

A miniature about the story of the princess and the pea. The lower part of a bed piled with colorful mattresses is next to a medieval chair with a nightgown, candle, and book titled "The Gift of Sensitivity" resting on it. Part of the ladder leaning against the mattresses is visible. An open pea pod with one pea missing is lying by one of the bed posts.

It's done! My miniature "The Gift of Sensitivity" is finally completed. It only took 21 years...mainly because I took enormous breaks.
