What is it about these chubby, frolicking, little cherubs that endears the heart so? No Victorian home is complete without at least one of these charming little cherubs, no matter what form they may take:)

Your cherubs are all so angelic and I love the way they are watching over you and guarding your rings whilst the dishes are washed.
Lovely post.

Oh, I love all your sweet little cherubs! I have many of those darlings myself in my Victorian home! I have one of the candlestick cherubs that you found in the antique store in Georgia. How I would love to find it's mate! Mine was given to me by my grandmother, and it is so dear to me.
Thanks for your visit to my blog and for touring our home and B&B. Yes, we do have a website. The name of the B&B is "The Little Young House," and our webpage is www.tennesseebb.com.
Isn't the ghost such a neat addition to the house?! I will have to share with you a few of the ghost sitings over the last few years, and those we've heard about from previous owners of the house. She has quite a history with sitings that goes back to at least the early 1900s. So fascinating! But, as I mentioned, Michael and I have never "seen" her! I feel a little "left out," to be honest!
Oh, you do ghost tours! How FUN! Oh, please tell me more!
Blessings,
Paula
