Nissa the Gnome from the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina

Nissa the Gnome lives on the edges of the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina. She is one of the happiest gnomes you could ever meet, and because of that is a sort of guide. When the tourists come to town (the leaf lookers) as they are called, she will come out... especially when they seem lost.

When a visitor is getting hungry and looking for a diner, or a place to lay there head down at night...Nissa will appear and whisper suggestions in the wind for them to hear. She wants everyone who visits her mountains to fall in love with them as she has, so she makes sure that they can find everything they need to be comfortable and and content.She will often have brochures tucked in her pocket and will sneak and place them within a visitor's reach so that they can find an abundance of beauty while here. I suppose she is the best little travel agent in the forest.

Aludra Star Art Beaded Art Doll Ornament

What would you do if there was nothing stopping you? What could you accomplish if you didn't know the word "couldn't" ? Just ask Aludra Star....one of the smallest little stars who is part of the Canis Major constellation. She lives on the edges of the constellation, her family, and some would probably ignore her existence. What can one little star do in the Universe?

Aludra Star Art Doll Ornament

Well, Miss Aludra Star shines brighter than the Sun...truly she does. How can that possibly be? Quite simply, because no one told her that she couldn't. Her heart and spirit are as big as the sky and it radiates through her, around her, and lights the world for others. THAT's what one little star can do. (She inspires us to do the same)
