[Muhler]

Earlier today Mary visited the new home for Royal Copenhagen: Kronprinsesse Mary til indvielsesfest hos Royal Copenhagen | Billed Bladet

And she had a brief chat as well as admired the work of some of the artists handpainting the china.
She also presented three grants to artists working with Royal Copenhagen.

There's a picture in the article.

BB has followed up with a video:

Kronprinsesse Mary besøger Royal Copenhagen i Glostrup - YouTube

It's the omnipresent Ulrik Ulriksen who is our reporter.

Mary is here explained the story behind the set made in connection with Christian's christening.
It consists of three pieces: A large plate, depicting forest-strawberries, as a reminder of the M&F's wedding in May.
A dessert-plate, depicting apples, becasue Christian was born in October.
And a mug depicting a winterflower, fitting with the season when Christian was christened. - It's such a thing, don't know the English word for them: http://www.fugleognatur.dk/images/ga...IMG_5575vv.jpg

She's a hard working woman, our Crown Princess.* She looks beautiful. My mind goes back to 2009, when she was in Vietnam and visited a porcelain factory with mother-in-law. Mother-in-law painted creative flowers on the edge of no less than four porcelain mugs... Meanwhile Mary's creativity could just exactly handle a solid 'Mary' planted right in the middle of one porcelain plate

*Not to forget BB's Ulrik Ulriken who was with her in Myanmar as well. I would still have jet lag if I was them!

Hi Muhler the picture of the flowers shows Lily of the Valley flowers. The Duchess of Cornwall has a very nice brooch depicting these flowers.

[Muhler]

Thanks Tarlita. I'll try to remember that.

The place is extremely interesting; look forward to visiting it myself, should the occasion arise.

As for what Mary is wearing; beautiful coat that would have looked nice on Princess Margaret in the 60's. Mary wearing it now looks very much like Princess Margaret in her 60's. The lace top looks drab, and the combination of heather-navy-grey doesn't work for me.

The earrings are beautiful!

Well, the last section was in reference to Royal Copenhagen. Sorry about the mishap!

Thank for the pics.

Let's have a look at what Mary said.

The flowergirl is five year old Julie Sommer, she's a cancer-survivor. She was diagnoced with cancer at age two and she is now cured.
Mary was pretty impressed with the little girl: "She sure is comfortable with being in the spotlight".

After seing a movie depicting people who have diagnoced with cancer Mary said: "I probably wasn't the only one to be moved be the film which we saw a moment ago. To see people fighting a serious desease makes a big impression, not least when it's children.
That children get caner or another lifethreathing desease is to most some of the most unhappy thing that can occour. Nevertheless you probably cannot quite imagine how mournful and painful it is ti have a child with cancer.
Active and happy days with the mates are replaced by long commitments to the hospital, harsh cures and isolation. To the parents it's a life of constant sorrow. Imagine how it must be if your child could not go out to play and take part in spare time activities for months or years due to risk of infection from other children or adulst".

I see it from a young Danish girl and titled "the world's most beautiful Crown Princess on stage"

And article from TV2: "Fight against cancer: Mary touched to awards ceremony"
http://go.tv2.dk/2014-02-04-kamp-mod...l-prisuddeling

It wasn't a single person who this year received the award. It was the kindergarten Siv which received this year's honorary award from the Danish Cancer Society. Siv is the only kindergarten for children with cancer or other serious diseases resulting in an impaired immune system and therefore puts a strong focus on hygiene and cleanliness.

I see from this BB pic that Mary was accompanied by an adjutant. The DRF put on the big show for this event. That's not an usual sight - yet.
Mary (and indeed Frederik) are gliding more and more into the role of queen.

Here is a video from BT, where she teary eyed is presenting the Cancer Foundation award to the leader of the Kindergarten: Rørt kronprinsesse overrækker kræftpris | www.bt.dk

We also see a bit from the movie, which affected Mary. She wasn't quite her ususal composed self.

[Hannelore]

Indeed, although still professional she was quite teary. We don't see that so often and wonder what brought it on. I do like it though. She still grows in her role as years go by!
