Honoring The Irish Princess DYMPHNA


She was an Irish princess whose father (apparently unhinged by grief over the death of his wife-her mother- whom Dymphna apparently bore a striking resemblance to) was told by his advisors to marry.

She rejected his advances, fleeing Ireland along with her confessor, St.Gerebran, to what is now Belgium. Her demented father pursued her there, and after Gerebran tried to dissuade him from his unnatural desire for his daughter, summarily beheaded the priest. Dymphna refused his advances and was likewise dealt with.

The site of her martyrdom is Gheel, Belgium which is a place of pilgrimage from all suffering from mental or emotional disorders and her feast day is May 15.

Meeting friends we never knew on Etsy

Paris is my most favorite place in the world and so when Mary from Paree was interested in my Phantom of the Opera Earrings and Hairclips I was happy to assist. Little did I know I would be meeting a friend I never knew...She is lovely and Now Brooklyn and Paris are not so far apart.
She is also an amazing artist....katikut.deviantart.com/gallery If you have the opportunity to share your talents PLEASE DON'T HESITATE ...You might meet a friend you never knew in the mix
