⭐ Excited about the new craft I'm showing you in the video - cute yarn beanie hats - woo hoo! Definitely feeling a little frazzled today but it's all going to plan and I've just had a wonderful skinnydip in the sea with my Danish Besties in the dark (it is dark by 3.30pm here now) What is YOUR self-care today?! 👏🏼😍🏊🏼 I may be making more beanie hats tonight, ha ha!
Hi Diane! Those little beanies are adorable! Tweetie and Sparky 🥰 Your Christmas tree looks great! I still have Christmas ornaments from when I was a kid (I am your age). My self care has been reading a book my daughter got me for my birthday! I hope you have a great rest of your day!
Those extra cables and electrical cords will leave my house in the new year! Enjoying Christmas activities now, feeling smug and relaxed thanks to your advice to preplan so far ahead.
Sending my last Christmas gifts and hoping they’ll arrive in time, I’ll reward myself with a bath (and maybe some Lindt dark chocolate) in the evening, when it’s dark outside, maybe at 4.30 p.m.
I have been sorting through 1000s of photos since my mum passed away. I'm giving old ones out to family and friends with their Christmas cards. They are loving the memories and I am decluttering and sorting!
Back tracking on your wonderful videos, as I got so busy, but I don't want to miss any.....thanks Diane.....watching this on Jan. 2....Happy New Year, I will try my hardest not to get backed up on watching your wonderful videos in this new year! Great channel ! Happy New Year! Yes, boxes, we took our many to the recycle center, and yes have gone thru' various cords too recently....always so much to keep up with and you are a great reminder and motivator!
Those little hats are adorable!! I am going to find instructions on making them. I love the idea of giving them with a piece of chocolate. They look cute on your tree, too. Your tree is beautiful and I love that you brought home some family ornaments from your mum's house. I have some from my childhood and it is a true joy to see them each year.
OMG Diane ... the Lindt dark chocolate ... yes! I was gifted some a few years back and have loved them ever since. They are divine. Sending you and yours every best wish for Christmas and the New Year. From Darlene in NZ
Thanks for sharing all of your vintage ornaments. I really enjoyed seeing them. I have some of my moms on my tree also. It is the memories that make the magic of Christmas.
Ooh, a gift? Looking forward to seeing what that is! 🎁 🤔 My "tree" is fresh - just some evergreen branches in a vase. Lovely scent! 🎄 Glad to see you have a fellow Gryffindor in the family (scarf) 🧣 Have a fantastic visit with your kids (and Kiko, I presume)! 🐾 😽 ✨
Thank you for doing this countdown to Christmas. It has been very fun seeing you. The old tree decorations are so neat to see. Love the ornament representing you Mum. Also love the little hats. So clever. Cheers
I just finished wrapping the final gift and then I went through all my gift wrapping supplies and bags and decluttered all the things I haven’t used in the last few years.
Merry Christmas Diane 🎄 🎉 ☃️ 🥂 and thanks for all you do. Lindt dark chocolate is a favourite so I have bought myself some for my pamper basket already.
You cracked me up with the "weird bald angel"description, Diane! 😄 It's so neat to hear the stories behind some of your ornaments. We have some vintage ones like that, too; a very similar reindeer in particular. Thanks for continuing to help us stay sane and cheerful through this last crazy week! 💙
Thanks for all your inspiration this year, Diane. I hope you, your family and wonderful friends have a wonderful Christmas 🎄🥂💓. I’m looking forward to the New Year I have a few tasks that I’m want to do including looking at my zones and making them simpler.
I’m a bit behind on your videos….i have been so exhausted trying to keep going to cross the finish line of Xmas and a break. Your videos are just what I need to give me a pep me up. Love your tree. Love the stories and memories behind the decorations. ❤
Beautiful that you have your mother represented on your tree she can be celebrate in heaven while you celebrate here and honor her with your love. Cheers to your mom Merry Heavenly Christmas to her. Happy memories and pleasant thoughts this season. 💝💖💝
Send the Ferraro rocher here and I’ll send you all the Lindt dark chocolate 😅🤝 years ago my mum knitted me the mini pudding covers for Christmas after I showed her one of your videos. It’s one of my favourite Christmas decorations ❤❤❤
Just spent 25 minutes shovelling snow. We’re supposed to get about 10 to 15 cm today with -18 degree C temperatures (-27 C with the windchill). 🌨️🌬️🥶 Might be a good day to bake some cookies since I haven’t done any of that yet this month. 🇨🇦
Thank you so much Diane for making my Christmas brighter! I've followed your advice and I'm ready for December 25th. No last minute panic. I'm enjoying the season so much more. Thank you for all your advice - you are a treasure.
It's been so nice this Christmas not feeling overwhelmed all the time. My house is ready for unexpected guests or to hold impromptu game nights and parties. Thanks for your encouragement!
By doing a little each day while I was getting over my cold, we're all decorated and, with a daily pupa, in good shape for any company who might stop by. My decluttering over the next 2 weeks is going to be a couple of shelves in our storage closet. That will make putting away the decorations easier when it's time to do that🎄 👍🙂
I spent a lovely evening with my daughter decorating our Xmas tree and talking about the memories from our decorations especially the ones the girls made. My angel was made by my friend in Canada when I first bought my own home and we still use it. Love the pom-pom hats and I’m going to make some this weekend so thank you for the idea.
Merry Christmas to You & your family! Thank you for cheering and encouraging us on! We are empty nesters and the kids are coming- finally off work so I can push thru to pre & enjoy Christmas!
Great little video of inspiration to get thought these last few days before Christmas. Love your memories of childhood Christmas tree ornaments. I’m making my grocery list of last minute items to get before the holidays ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉 can’t wait for the new challenges. Merry Christmas 🎄
Love a Christmas tree full of memories! I have a beaded angel made by my great aunt many, many years ago, not beautiful but always in a place of honor.
It's always a pleasure to watch your videos Diane. I don't declutter as often as I'd like but seeing you and hearing you consistently do it yourself, helps keep me moving forward. I do have items in my storage that belong to others which I'd like to offload at some point. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
A sweet tree full of treasured items and the fun ones too really makes the season! How delightful your brother visited and the kids are heading home! Have a lovely holiday,🥰
I've recently gone through my parents' old ornaments and Christmas decorations. I kept a few, and the rest was pretty worn out, so I recycled those. Lots of good memories from my childhood 🌲🎁❤️
Merry Christmas to you and your family Diane! Thanks for all the inspiration you give us and motivation to keep declutterring. I cherish my vintage family Christmas decorations as well. My mother passed away in 2017 at the age of 94. I have beautiful lace snowflakes that she crocheted I hang on my tree. I’ve not mentioned this before, but you resemble my mother when she was in her 50’s; that must be why I always find another bit of comfort in watching your videos. 😊. - Anne in Ohio
Thank you Diane. I loved the Princess Leia bauble. That bald angel really reminded me of a wee dolly we used to have. 😂 Always good to see you. Best wishes, Anne
I love the funny decorations your brother brought from your mums. They are unusual charming and unique. I love the mix you have on your tree. Makes it so personal ☺️ Our tree is the same although a lot more tinsel and chaos. My kids decorated the tree and I love it that way ♥️
I love your little tree❣️ I have an ornament that I made in Kindergarten plus ornaments made by my children & grandchildren. They are very special to me ❤️❤️
Ornaments like your bald fairy are the BEST! My favorite is a balled up piece of foil with things glued to it - the kids look for it every year😂Merry Christmas!
I "LOVE" your jumper! And the decorations from childhood remind me of those I kept after my mother died. Treated myself to a candy cane white hot chocolate (with whipped cream!) while I was on a mission to find a wee something to boost the spirits of a friend in need.
My Danish friend is coming soon and I’ve cleaned the guest room and made the bed ready. His adult son asked if he could send things to me and his first packet arrived today. He said it was cheaper posted to me rather than to Denmark so my friend will take it back to Denmark for him in the new year. I don’t often have a tree but will cut some twigs and put a few baubles on them next week. Have a lovely Xmas and New Year x
I love your home Diana, the beautiful antique furniture and those lovely dinner plates especially. My tree is fake but the decorations on it all have some memory attached, the oldest being older than me I think. Happy Christmas to you.
Merry Christmas to you, Diane! Wishing you and your family a lovely holiday. I love all your ornaments, especially the new Hendrick's gin one (my favorite gin) and the special ones from your childhood.

What a lovely win-win!
What a wonderful idea!
Lovely idea!!!
Thankyou for the idea 💡 light bulb moment
I love the special retro ornaments…way more personality than what is available commercially today
Vintage ornaments are so precious as they hold so many special memories.
I love the personal retro Christmas ornaments. It makes the tree much more interesting than one with only new matching ornaments. Merry Christmas!
Beautiful tree decorations! I love when a tree looks cohesive but is still very personal & tells a story.
Happy Christmas Diane - thank you for your content keeping us all accountable with our Hygge and Flylady tasks! All the best for 2025! 🎊
Thanks for the inspiration of balance between getting things done and taking time to be creative and joyful!

I have fallen by the wayside 😄 Back on track today - love all of your well loved Christmas ornaments.

Our tree, like yours, is a collection of memories. 🦋🦋🦋
“I’ve got fuzzy feet” haha, Diane you might need to talk to a chiropodist about that hahaha
I love the sentimental ornaments!
