Cynthia,

Wow, this is great. I love the level of detail that you've made; the chess set,
the plate, the fully stocked panty. I really like the pantry, in too many of the
castle MOC's I've seen, it's ignored, or maybe the minifigs eat plastic.

Yes, I agree. No minifig should be without a well-stocked pantry ;)

I love
your birch tree too, it's rare to see a specific kind of tree being made.

That tree was copied from Jojo Koehler's birch tree, see

What is the signifigance of the hand?

I thought about trying to make some kind of high-browed response to this
question, but the truth is, I don't really know. I have always been fascinated
by hands, drawing them over and over when I was a kid, and now I collect hand
sculptures and jewelry with hands...but I don't know why they are significant to
me. They just are :) After I was done building, it occured to me that minifigs
don't have hands and it was kinda weird to put hand symbols in the MOC, but I
went with it anyway.

Thanks,

George

Thanks for your kind words George, I'm glad you liked it.

Cyndi
