Never got back to unpacking , just dumped everything in the garage and waiting for some magic where the cartons will unpack by itself ( still crossing my fingers and hoping for it ).

  4. These are so pretty!! I love how you did the filling in a heart shape!

    I hate the whole process of moving, and can't blame you at all for procrastinating on the unpacking.
