Thank you for saying out loud, what so many women are thinking. It's easy to feel inadequate. I was thinking for 1 min about drying oranges, but rather eat them, and the color does not go well in my house. I tied branches after the storm together with some pine cones and hung it on our fence. And I decorate my tree with glass birds and old ornaments. Very minimalist decorations and I love it that way. I am not very practical but instead like cooking and baking for a few friends coming to my house. I also have become a minimalist who I watch on U tube. So no homemade wreaths or orange strings at me house. I' ll put some green branches and holly from the yard around the table when people come over. You are definitely far from a Grinch. Happy Holidays ❤ Sabine ( my heart is heavy and sad today after watching German news.)
Dearest Sabine, Justin brought me to date with the news. It’s absolutely awful. I wish so much that these crazy things didn’t happen. What you do at home sounds lovely and I wish I can come over and visit and help you eat those oranges. 🍊
I also agree. I luv decorating with pumpkins and mums for Halloween and thanksgiving but some of the Christmas videos are too over the top and can make you feel inadequate. That’s why I luv your videos. You make the mundane beautiful. I could live in your potting shed.
Ohhh Halloween, that’s definitely not a thing here in France, but if I were back in the US, I’d definitely have one of the spookiest yards in the neighborhood. 🎄 Merry Holiday and thanks for watching!
Oh Jenni , we’d all be happier if we didn’t compare ourselves to those on social media ! Your French home is beautiful as is ! Merry Christmas to you , Justin and Bibi !🎄❤️
Your vlog really threw me for a loop. It wasn't clear whether l should take you seriously or not. I guess we have different senses of humor. I wish l had your space to live in let alone decorate for Christmas! But comparison is always the robber of joy. Gratitude is really the only "attitude" we should have. I'm telling myself this while sitting in the living room of our trailer home with no central heating but enjoying the heat from the rocket stove that my husband built and we are able to heat the entire house with $10 worth of scrap wood from a cabinet shop that fills a truck bed. Both my husband and l are about 3 thousand miles from each side of our families and really have nobody but ourselves to spend it with so l understand the longing to be near family around Christmas. Make new traditions with just you and your hubby. I have thoroughly enjoyed the vlogs that share unique Christmas ideas and family traditions. Happy holidays you 3.
All very inspiring though! I’m trying to convince Justin to get an artificial tree but he’s not ready yet. 🤣 Happy Holidays keep your belly full & happy.
@Frenchcountryfriends get a small Christmas tree in a pot, it can be put in the ground in future years, and some lights added to have a nice view out your window. (Away from the house thou.)
That was actually way more interesting and enjoyable than the ever present holiday decorating vlog. And you are right when it comes to over consumption. I'm not a Grinch or Scrooge, but the feeling of having to compete with every other home for the biggest tree or light display is a bit overwhelming. A Merry Christmas to you and your family. 🌲💚🐾..
Every holiday is overload, it's best to celebrate the way that makes you comfortable and happy ❤ Happy holiday to you and Justin. You both inspire and make us smile xo Rhonda
Well with your lemons if life gives you lemons make lemonade 😅…. There will be no orange slicing here 😅 who has the time 😮 and my get up and go has got up and gone 😅 …. Have a lovely orange free christmas ❤
You’re right, Jeni. It’s overkill, and other than a nativity and a white poinsettia, I put up nothing this season. It’s not about the decor anyway. 💜💜☺️ Hugs to you and Justin🤗🤓
Yes every man or should I say woman & her dog is putting out vlogs on “How to” for either Christmas or everyday of your life. But just let’s face it, like you they are also trying to make some money. It’s not like you are not. So if you are overwhelmed then don’t try to watch other people’s vlogs. But please don’t complain that there are too many vlogs out there. Everyone should have a chance of making some money if they can. Why should it be only you?
Ohhh no, I’m purely meant to be comical, a satire. I love all holiday decorating and spirit. ❤️⭐️ I’m a huge fan of all the beautiful content. I warned you, don’t watch this video unless you’ve got a sense of humor. Happy Holidays.
the perfect anti-dote to the overwhelm!
Happy Holiday Lovelies! You are all inspiring in your own ways! We appreciate you very much! Do you read our description box? 🎄⭐️💕
Yes. 🤗
