Ohhh myyy...what a perfect addition to your already beautiful grapevine wreath!!! I just giggled when I seen that darling little nest so sweetly nestled into the top of your wreath! Hehe!!! It just seems to me to be the final addition to a picture perfect wreath decor...like icing on a cake!!! So much fun to be able to watch mama robin with her soon to be born babies!!! Awesome!!!
Warmest wishes,
