On the Third Day of Princess Walt Disney gave to me,


Three fairy spells,
Two lucky pals,
and the wisdom of an old tree.


Another day, another page for the calendar. And unlike the last one, this one was kind of a headache for me. Remember a while back when I asked you which princess fits which months? Most of you felt that Merida belongs into autumn because of her red hair. Thing is: I already had three princesses for autumn. In addition, I don't think that Brave is actually set in fall, I think it is either spring or summer during the movie. So I hope that you are not too disappointed that I ended up putting her into March:



Part of the reason was the holiday I picked for March. Yes, I know, Merida is from Scotland, St.Patrick's Day is an Irish celebration. But at least there are shared Celtic roots between those two cultures, which made Merida a better pick to represent this particular month than any other princess. Plus, I was actively looking for a Scottish holiday which is celebrated at least in the whole of Scotland at a specific day and came up mostly blank. The highland games, which come pretty close to what is shown in Brave, don't happen on a specific day, but are spread out over spring, summer and early autumn, with events happening in different cities to different times. So all in all, this calendar page is a little bit of a compromise, but I hope you enjoy it nevertheless. And the wallpaper, which are already uploaded in the image section. Oh, and I naturally did an icon with Merida in St. Patrick's Style, too.


The gold version of her was another headache, because there simply aren't any pictures of Merida wearing gold. I hope, you enjoy the solution I came up with.



And I naturally did a "name only" version, too:


The goddess I felt would be best represented by her is Artemis/Diana. So behold, Merida, the goddess of hunt and the wilderness. Also of chastity which I guess, would fit Merida, but let's not go overboard, I don't think that we need a goddess of chastity in modern times. Maybe the goddess of proud singles instead?



Finally I created a banner. Frankly...not my best work. I just have trouble to work with material from Brave. But I hope you enjoy it nevertheless.
