The mailman delivered one of my favorite finds EVER TODAY. A pair of cherubs. Their faces are adorable!
I was the high bidder and this pair is even cuter in person.
I have seen lots of vintage items, but never a pair like this before. They are about 15 inches tall and made of a plaster composition material. The little bulbs on the gifts light up.
Darling little wings at the back.
SERIOUSLY IN LOVE. Won't they be cute at Valentine's Day?
Happy Day!
What!?!? Something not from an estate sale! Yup, they will look great for any red holiday!

I think they look a bit like you! I have four small figurines like this but hey don't have the candles - I've never seen anything like them!

I do see a bit of magpie in their sweet faces and hair. They are a wonderful addition to your valentine collection.

You're going to wait until Valentine's Day to put them out? They're darling! You just always find the cutest and most unique things :-)

What a lovely addition, they will be sweet for Valentines and Christmas! :) Love their little faces! xo Holly

I was thinking the same thing as Shara -- that they look a little like you. Not that you're running around in nothing but a cape and bloomers but from the above the shoulders, I see some Ethel there. :)

What adorable little faces! Great addition to your collection!

You find the most unique things that I never knew existed! Was I just blind during my growing up years that I never noticed the future collectibles I might want to look out for later? I don't see Valentine items very often. Cute, cute, cute!

Pretty darn cute!
