How beautiful these are Sarah! Thank you for joining me at Home Sweet Home!

Hi again, Sarah - I'm working backwards! For some reason, Blogger didn't let me know that you'd posted your two most recent posts. I saw them show up on someone else's sidebar. Most annoying! I'm glad I got to catch up. I have a heart with 'aus liebe' and at least one little German wax heart. Such treasures!
