Tomte or Nisse~ needlefelted

Needle felted Tomte or Nisse


Here are two of my newly needlefelted Tomte or Nisse!


tomte (Swedish) or nisse (Norway and Denmark)  is a mythical creature of Scandinavian folklore. Tomte or Nisse were believed to take care of a farmer's home and children and protect them from misfortune, in particular at night, when the housefolk were asleep.
