Unicorns Mythical Magical Creatures

Have you, or your kids, seen the movie The Last Unicorn?  Do you collect unicorns, or know someone that does?  I love these magical creatures, and the movie "The Last Unicorn" is one of my all time favorites, so what a plesant surprise when I got it as a gift.

I found a great resource for Unicorn Gifts and Collectibles, and learned about some Unicorn tapestries that are from the middle ages called, "The Lady and The Unicorn".  Fascinating info about that centuries old Unicorn Tapestry. 

Little girls, like my grand daughter, love horses and unicorns.  These posters are beautiful as I'm sure you'll agree.

The Lady and the Unicorn looks just like one of the 6 panels on the original tapestry that is hanging at the Cluny Museum in Paris.  This one, "To My Only Desire" is the 6th panel, and the only one that doesn't specifically mention one of the senses. 

The other Unicorns show the magic of these mythical creatures, and my favorite is the blue one at the top, titled just "Unicorn", while my grandaughter likes " Unicorn and foal". 

The "Fairy Falls" has so many things in it that the magic just flows out of it.

When I saw the Unicorn Barbie I was amazed at the detail, the beauty of this collectible doll.  Personally I don't collect barbies, but if I did, wow!  The Unicorn Collectible I loved was the Dreamcatcher Unicorn.  It's a limited edition one and the dreamcatcher part lets my imagination go to that land where there is only beauty.  Waterfalls, mountain roads and lots of Unicorns.

You can see this limited edition Unicorn Dreamcatcher here, along with the Barbie and some custom designed Unicorn apparel, Unicorn Gifts and Collectibles.

I hope you like them as much as I did :)

Shakespeare and many others have mentioned Unicorns.  Scotland even has them on their coat of arms, yet no one has ever seen a Unicorn.  They are supposed to look like a white horse, with a golden spiral horn that holds magical curing powers.  Where they live is supposedly in deep forests, with the fairies.  The mystical and magical Unicorn....the true goodness kept alive in our imaginations through art, figurines, and other Unicorn gifts and collectibles.

As a kid growing up, I remember "The Unicorn Song"  from the Irish Rovers.  It told about why we don't see any Unicorns anymore. If you haven't heard it before it is a catchy folk song about why the Unicorns never made it onto Noah's Ark. You can find it on Youtube, or it is embedded in the link for gifts and collectibles.

The movie "The Last Unicorn" also came out many years ago....over 25, but it is still a cute animated film that a whole new generation of kids are watching. 

Shakespeare mentioned Unicorns in the Tempest Act III, "Now I will believe / That there are unicorns; that in Arabia / There is one tree...."  and there are a few other references to the Unicorn.

So, whether you believe, or don't believe in Unicorns they are beautiful legendary creatures.  Me, I choose to believe.  Anything that is good in the world is worth believing in!
