The Sweetheart
Candy
Cottage

There are no limits on imagination and, no boundaries around creativity!

Allow your imagination to examine, explore, & create endless possibilities!

This miniature cardboard cottage features hundreds of sweet, candy-colorful, cut-out hearts inside and out...
​
From ceiling to floor and all walls in between, you'll find hearts that inspire messages of love, hope, and laughter.
