I have to say that I truly appreciated your comment about not having to fall into the whole viral trap. Just because something has gained traction and popularity and maybe works in some people's homes, it doesn't necessarily mean we all need to rush out to buy these items in order to create a beautiful home with memories that can be made and cherished for years to come. I have fallen into that whole rat race trap myself and wasted so much money on "crap" that doesn't even bring me a moments worth of happiness or fit the aesthetic of what I am trying to achieve in our home.
Your flocked tree is so magical with all the heavy flocking🌲❄️love the gingerbread houses and deer, trees👍🏻🏠🌲🏠🌲🦌🦌the bows on the mantle you knitted are so cute🎀every thing looks so beautiful
My favorites… ❤ your bow garland & how special it is, cause it is homemade. Beautiful 🙏🏻 ❤ your gingerbread village under the 🎄& letting your daughter play with it. 🎅🏻 what a great memory for both of you
It looks absolutely beautiful Megan!!! I stopped following trends and decorated with what I like and mostly with what I had. I can't wait to see the rest of the decorating!!!
I’ve used red bows in my Christmas decor for years 🤷🏼♀️ nothing trendy about it for me lol. It feels very traditional within the context of Christmas decor 🎀
Loved your decorating formal living room decor picks. Looks beautiful and very peaceful. Great pointing out less is more when it comes to bookcases and coffee tables.
I never thought about decorating under the tree! Unfortunately in my current space I only have room for one tree and I have to use it for presents, but I'll definitely put the inspo you've given and put it in my back pocket for the future! The gingerbread theme is so sweet, i dont see it too often, so it's cool to see something different. 😊
Everything is absolutely stunning! Perfection, in my opinion! I can’t wait to see the rest of your decorating videos. You have a beautiful home, Megan ❤🎅🎁🎄
Megan, it looks amazing as always! Love your creative decorating eye. Especially love the Santa picture and repurposing the kitchen sconces. Although your mantle looks great, when you hung the pine swag with the red bow and bells on your glass cabinet, I bet that would also look great as a more minimal mantle decoration, with the stockings hung on either side. The whole room looks fab & can’t wait to see you decorate the rest of your home. 🎄
So pretty and festive ill do my decorating in December my home is very small with just a living room and small dining room to decorate i only use snowmen because they make me smile have a wonderful weekend sweet lady 🌲🌲⛄️👏🫶
You did a marvelous decor although you said the living room is small you made it look as though it's a medium size living room with the tall Christmas tree 🎄 which was a great idea for a large tree it helps the living room decor to look awesome. The fireplace mantel stole the show❤❤❤it great decor 👍🏻
Love the colour combination of xmas. Each space tells a story of a village at xmas a time. The colours of the furniture blend so well. Love that the tree reflects on the glass of the cabinet. ❤
Megan, that's one of the things I love about you, you do your own thing, not what everyone else is doing, and it always turns out beautiful! ❤ I love the way you decorate. I love your Christmas tree so much. I have always wanted a flocked tree but never had one. Last year when I saw your tree, I decided to buy a flocked one of my own (my tree I had for 9 years was awful to put together and only 1/3 of the lights worked lol. Anyway, I got a small 4 1/2' for myself with clear lights, and I love it so much! ❤😊 I took so many pictures of my pretty little tree! Thank you for being such an awesome young lady, Megan! 😊🎄❤️
I always forget something! Lol! When you said your daughters ages, I thought dang! Those are my 2 great grandbabies' ages! Lol! Belle just turned 11 this week, and her little brother Hudson is 7. Anyway, now I feel old! 😂❤
We have a small living room off the front door that leads into the eating area. You are so right, it’s all about scale. We have smaller furniture (loveseat, chair and chaise) with the chaise separating living/eating areas. Like you, we use s rug to anchor the living area. Again, I will compliment you on your use of limited colors: red, green, brown; keeping it simple (as you do) makes it easy on the eyes and inviting. Brava! You and your daughters made the bow garland, right? BEAUTIFUL.
I love that you spoke about feeling overwhelmed for trending looks and items. I fell in that category this year and almost forgot what I loved most about Christmas. So thank you for reminding me ❤️🎄. Lovely home😍
So glad that I clicked on this video. The decorating style is amazing! I absolutely love it. You've done a lot of things that I can incorporate into my own home. This is the first year I have ever seen any of your decorating videos. So glad that I did click on this video. So looking forward to more videos for you. Thank you so much for sharing!❤❤❤
Ooh Megan, I love your Xmas tree it is stunning 😍 and I love how you went traditional vibes for your decor. You outdid your living room. Everything compliments each other. Hope you have a great week! 😊💚❤️
Megan your him looks so pretty thank you for sharing it with us. I dont do crafts any more but I would enjoy a craft video. I alway let my daughter play with the village if she broke something then we got a new piece for next years village. God bless you and your family.💖⛄🤗
I love that my kids interact with our decor too! It helps to make a special impression so that they will remember/look forward to having this decor out 🤗
I also have that Santa picture. Every year I see it in the store and talk myself out of it, NOT this year, I bought it, and love it. And you're right, its stunning. I love your tree, I have not seen that one in the store. Its so flocked that it gives the look that its dropping on the ends, its gorgeous.
That happened to us too! We loved it for two years before we actually bought it last year. I’m so glad we did! It is one of my favorite pieces of decor now 🤗
I love that you mentioned you’re content with what you have Megan. I think that’s so important and part of what makes the holidays so special. I’ve been trying to curate my own collection of Christmas items for years. This year is one where we actually have a little extra in our budget for some “new items” but I’m looking for more classic, vintage inspired pieces. I love our big hand me down tree. Your house reminds me of my grandmas when I was growing up. She always had her formal living room and then the family room. The formal living room was always grand and decked out. You have a wonderful sense of style. Thanks for the nostalgia.
I've always been one to stray away from the trends as my thing is nativities, shiny brites, anything handmade, and anything vintage Christmas so I just love that you are doing what you want and not what the internet is saying. Also I Love Love Love the bow garland you made. Great job! And I am looking forward to all of the Christmas decorating videos!
Complimenti Megan☺️ Soft ma accogliente al tempo stesso 🥰 Credo che un filo di lucine nella ghirlanda sopra il camino renderebbe tutto un po’ più magico…☺️
Christmas decorating has begun!!! Thanks for hanging out & decorating with me! 🎄

+1 😊
Thank you!
Actually tired of seeing everyone decorate the same. No imagination. Your home reflects your personality...so cute.
I think everyone should decorate in the way that makes them happy…and this is what makes me happy 🤗
My favorites…
❤ your bow garland & how special it is, cause it is homemade. Beautiful 🙏🏻
❤ your gingerbread village under the 🎄& letting your daughter play with it.
🎅🏻 what a great memory for both of you
That bow garland was so fun to make!
Love it! So magical, peaceful, cozy & traditional. Well done, as always.
Thank you!
I always love your Christmas decor! Your heavy flocked tree and the gingerbread village are my absolute favorite!!!
Mine too! I love flocked trees 🎄
Looks fantastic, love the idea of the village under the tree!
Thanks! I think that gingerbread village will probably become a Christmas tradition in our home 😊
Love video. Your gingerbread houses look like your tree collar, love them.
Thank you!
Everything looks so festive 🎄I really ❤️ the white reindeer 🦌
I love them too! I used to have 2 sets but the 2nd standing one broke last year 😭
@ 😞 aw so sad…I guess it’s good that they didn’t both break
Absolutely beautiful and cozy living room decor 🎄
Thank you!
It looks absolutely beautiful Megan!!! I stopped following trends and decorated with what I like and mostly with what I had. I can't wait to see the rest of the decorating!!!
