First, I wanted to start this post by giving a enormous "Thank You" to the beautiful Kristin from Leproust Vintage, who featured me on her blog last week! I was so ecstatic to receive my first blog feature! Also, I want to welcome and thank all my new (and past) readers and followers; your support and comments mean so much to me! Welcome Aboard!
Years ago I had purchased a book from The Brothers Grim, Illustrated by Errol Le Cain, "Twelve Dancing Princesses". I remember being breathtaking by the gorgeous imagery. The book has been retired to bookshelves for a long time now. However, today, I wish to share those beautiful images with you.

Yes, her post is what made me realize you have a blog. :-)
Those images are so breathtaking and beautifully illustrated - I love the bright orange one (the third one). Lots of inspiration in those pages, to be sure!
Your dress is really pretty - I like the details on it! - JoAnn

My sister already commented on this but, The Twelve Dancing Princesses is one of my favorite Brother's Grim fairy tales. Although my book doesn't have nearly as many pictures. But I do remember my sister and I fighting over our copy :)
Also, Leproust Vintage is how I found your blog. - Nikki

Thank you so much for posting this! I have never heard of "The brothers Grim" or "Errol Le Cain" so this is a serious treat for me! These images are so beautiful! How funny about your little confusion over the books! And again you are just as beautiful as ever! I love the way you put things together and your sweet smile! I am headed over to Leproust now! She is such a sweetie huh!

Oh my gosh, the 12 dancing princesses! I loved this book! A pair of shoes reminded me of something they would wear, but none of the other buyers knew the story.

I love that fairy tale! The illustrations are like a medieval tapestry or an illuminated text! How gorgeous.

Eep! Beautiful and also creepy (in the best way) images. I just read ten Grimm fairytales in a row and realized how amazingly funny (and disturbing of course) they are. And you look GORGEOUS!

Beautiful, beautiful blog!

I just found your blog today, and then this post on Errol LeCain. I too had this book as a child and find myself to be completely obsessed with him as an adult.
But Twelve Dancing Princesses is by far his most beautiful.
OMG, I've been looking for these illustrations and story for years! I read this exact book when I was a child and now you've given me a name to these pictures I loved
