hope you're not sick of these characters yet but i added some humans finally! some old ladies definitely not destined to be together (i imagine they're both friends with sulo and have essentially adopted them)

adalminan helmi or adalmina's pearl is a finnish fairytale by zachris topelius about a princess who's given gifts by two fairies as she's born, the first one giving a pearl that will grant her ever-growing beauty, intelligence and wealth, though should she ever lose it then she'll also lose all those things with it until she finds the pearl again the second fairy's gift is that if she does lose the pearl she'll gain a kind and humble heart instead

it's another fairytale illustration and this was the one story out of finnish fairytales that i probably read the most, and it was a favorite of mine as a kid (it still might be, sometimes it's hard to decide) and i wanna summarize a bit more in detail what happens at least in the version i'm most familiar with under the cut, but there's some other variations of it out there too!

stickers!!

i didn't deliberately design these to be stickers but a couple people had requested some so i figured this'd be the easiest way to make that happen 8)

i'm also adding a bunch more than what's visible now (some of the animal crossing style ones and the separate eras from my menestynyt yksilö poster), they'll just take a minute to show up on the site!
