This is really nice, I’m tired of all the videos that looked like Hobby Lobby, Kirklands or Michaels took over the house. You won’t get sick of this subtle decor.
Dear Andrea... I love all your sweet ideas. I have a few TH-camrs that I love... but sometimes I feel like they are just long commercials for the various stores.... their decor turns out beautifully but most people can not afford to go out and buy all that stuff... then they become discontent when they start to decorate their own homes. We all need to learn to be content with with we already have and use it to the fullest. Thank you for your approach. By the way... you might have the most most beautiful eyes I have ever seen.... I think their clear brightness come from the goodness within you!
You know, Andrea, you are one of those kind of people that if I find out that in real life that you were not as you appear, it would be heartbreaking ..... I’m sure you are , though, just as warm & real & sincere as you seem to be ! Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving & Christmas - Be glad to see the end of 2020 - hope we turn the corner in 2021 ! 🥰🥰🥰🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Last year I went to dollar tree and bought a couple rolls of their brown mailing paper (it's with their mailing area) and I wrapped all my presents in that. Not only do you get more per roll than Christmas paper, but it does not tear as bad. As my grandchildren unwrapped the presents I gathered the paper back up and gave some of it to them later to color on and some was kept to later turn into paper mache and I made a "Kirby" valentines box for my grandson.
I took that brown paper and covered my art studio floor with it…applying it with rolled on glue, random tears on the pieces then applying a rolled on poly….it makes the yucky plywood look so much better now…..
Another idea is to look at hardcover books with the slip covers that are red & green (or whichever color you decorate with for Christmas) & create a cute stack of them. I love stacking other decor on top for more height.
The dollar store brown paper is thinner and easier to wrap with. My grandmother used to wrap our gifts in brown paper grocery bags. I have always done the same for my kids.
Simply beautiful. I understand the Amazon links are one of the ways bloggers make money, but so many small businesses are really struggling right now. I am hoping bloggers start encouraging people to shop locally, especially this holiday season. God Bless.
I adore the hymnal garland. What a wonderful idea and made from old books found in your beautiful home. Way to go Andrea on lovely, simple and thrifted decor ideas.❤❤❤
✨ You are meaningful and beautiful✨ ✨ Peace on Earth ~ and~ in our homes and is what it's all about✨ 🎄 Thank you for sharing your tasteful ideas.....🙋🏼🇨🇦
Wonderful video 👏🏼🌲I was just at Target 🎯 yesterday drooling over the Christmas decor items. I stared for a long time debating about the bottle brush trees. Caught between my inner snow ❄️ Fairie having visions of tucking them around the house. And my rational mind saying you don’t need these. Ok .. now you’ve convinced me. My inner snow ❄️ Fairie wins ! Thank you!
I use fairy lights for everything. One of my favorite places to put them is in my china hutch! One on each shelf. It really draws the eye to everything in the hutch! I love putting them in mason jars, cloches, anything glass. (In the summertime) they make wonderful "make-believe" fireflies for the kids' bedrooms at night. Sometimes I tuck them into ceramic warmers or candle holders instead of using tealights or real flame. They light up the whole warmer. I had some "spooky" Halloween warmers (haunted house, etc.) and instead of using a tealight, used the fairy lights and the effect was safe (for kids) and perfect!
Thank you for sharing such lovely ideas. I have repurposed our ornaments and Christmas-themed items over the course of 47 years...and this year, for our 48th winter season, I am going to focus on whites, soft greens, and touches of red. Our walls are SW Silver Plate and our trim/doors are a soft white. With our antique pieces and dark wood floors, we've use splashes of wonderful color in rugs and accent pillows in our daily decor. I want the white to soften everything. Lots of white lights and minimal froo-froo!!! Our flocked tree was old enough not to be used indoors; we placed it on the covered patio outside our living room windows and the glow is ethereal. We rarely take it down before the end of February because the ambiance is just perfect and SE Texas can be a bit dreary through the winter months. Blessings!!
Your home is beautiful so simple but just beautiful. Thank u for sharing all these wonderful ideas. I love watching ALL your videos especially the thrifting it's my favorite thing to do. God Bless You and all u do and hope u have an amazing Thanksgiving. 💕🙏
Thank you, Andrea, for a lovely video. I've been thinking a lot about how to keep my home reflective of the more meaningful rather than "stuff" to look decorated. There is real beauty in thoughtful simplicity. I'm' already making time to make my own garland this weekend.You've inspired me to get going! lol
I love that idea, too - tallow berries are very hard to find, but look so good - I like to also use silver dollar eucalyptus to decorate with - I have a big Christmas holly tree & it really comes in handy ! Clippings look really cute on packages, too !
I loved this video. I too am taking more time to decorate and it is so much more enjoyable. Love your ideas ,some are similar to things I am doing .I have my dad’s snowshoes and I always put them on our porch . Perhaps I will consider bringing them inside. I have child size vintage boy and girl skates which I leave on a old bench by the door Stay safe and Thanks for sharing your ideas God bless you and your family this Christmas as we celebrate the greatest gift ever given
Andrea, I love your budget friendly decor ideas. I mean ,how simple can ribbon be? I love the wrapped packages as well. I started my minimizing journey last year and after the year we have had... I almost regretted it because I donated more than 6 bins of holiday items that I just didnt need, use or really want. But, your ideas in this video are perfect. I have some of those things and can add that little oomph to my very minimal holiday decor. The presents wrapped and a few of the bottle brush trees will be a nice touch in my cozy cottage. You always have such a lovely home all year around, but I especially love the holidays. Thanks for sharing these helpful hints. Take care and I look forward to your home tour. ❤️Leslie
I can identify with Leslie as I too started said journey early in 2021. We had family staying long term with us and just didn’t have the room for so many older Christmas decor items so seriously weeded them out to just what had meaning. When this years boxes came out I realized how much I had downsized. But having walked thru these past few years I don’t regret it. We have changed and don’t want to surround ourselves with past things. I’m carefully choosing a few new items and relishing the new cleaner brighter look in my home. I love the beautiful simple homemade items featured in this video and am already using some of them. Have a lovely holiday season everyone, centred on family and relationships and not gaudy decor.
Hi Andrea! I really think this video is special! I wish you would show us your garland and greenery throughout your home. I'd love to hear and see up close how you put the garland together, hung it or styled it, etc. I have not really begun decorating yet, hopefully some tomorrow and the majority over Thanksgiving weekend. Like you, I want to take my time and enjoy it. I work a lot of hours and it seems like it becomes a mad rush from now til Christmas. I'm trying not to do too much Christmas decor in the main living areas as we are having Thanksgiving dinner with our daughter and her boyfriend. I want everyone to enjoy the Thanksgiving decor LOL
I agree, Denise - I don’t want to skimp on Thanksgiving, especially since I have a large collection of beautiful mostly muted colored pumpkins that I arrange on my stairs - no one goes up there anymore so I can put the pumpkins on both sides !
I plan on making popcorn garland with my foster boys even before watching this video. Think we'll have to make the hymnbook garland, too! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for all your budget ideas!!! I'm trying to save money for more presents for family and yet love to decorate... the ribbons are one of my favorite things to use also...I hang ribbons of different lengths with ornaments tied to the bottom of each ribbon either in my windows or one year from my draperies.... fun to do...no limit to the colors you can use....❤️🥰
Hi Adrea, I'm a new subscriber! Your Christmas decor is so lovely I really like your style. Thank you for sharing with us. Have a wonderful and bless rest of your Sunday.🕊🙏🌟🎄🌟🙏🕊
I love thrifting for old Christmas ornaments..I’ve found many old Hallmark ones from 1982 ….also I collect old cans from cooking oil, cookies and I even found a real old can that dates way back in the 1800’s….. If you want to keep your greenery fresh longer use Wilt Stop….I watch Tonkadale Greenhouses vlog about arranging Christmas decor. Elysha English did penguins out of pine cones that are so cute…..I think it would be awesome if you made some pine cone wreaths, I’m sure you know how…. That is what my eight yr old grd daughter is coming over to help me do this weekend…..I set up my greenhouse so as to keep the mess in there with pine cones and pine limbs…..each year I make up some sort of a wreath or arrangement to give my five children as a pre Christmas gift to enjoy before the Dec 25 holiday. I’ve taken nice tree branches and sprayed them white and hung mini outdoor white lights on them and secure them into soil which when freezes holds the limbs very well….then I placed them around our back sitting area…..if you take a large round tire rim and put wood in it with lights around it inside also makes a nice cozy look to that sitting area……it would be nice with all yellow and orange lights if you could find them.
Beautiful, peaceful ideas! I love your message at the end to “ not make it stressful “.... too many years I did that “fitting” the holiday into my work schedule. I look forward to seeing more of your home decorated. You always keep me grounded young lady with your wisdom and peaceful soul! I thank you for that.🌲🌲🌲❤️❤️❤️🌲🌲🌲
Love your beautiful home so cozy and not a copy of everyone elses.I used to string popcorn fot the tree when the kids were little. I may do it again this year for my grankids when they come in .I love that you are so real.💝💝💝😍😍😍
I love your style, simple and beautiful. I use lots of the very large pine cones from the trees in my yard to decorate the fireplace mantle, I mix them with candles and some greenery. It’s very pretty and natural. My tip is to bake the pine cones first to get rid of any bugs, and the added benefit of drying any sap.
Love everything as usual, I wish you would paint in watercolors a Santa, it would be gorgeous with your talent 🤗 . You make me smile every time a new video appears!
Love these simple ideas. I am doing the same this year. I think this year has been lonely. Plus we are evaluating what is really important in life. Thanks for the inspiration.
When I first had my kitchen tree ( won free at my grocery) I used grocery brown bags and made gingerbread paper doll chains. Just used a magic marker to make faces and buttons.
Oh Andrea You are a breath of fresh air. Love your ideas. Love your house. Come help me decorate. I was watching your video while making my favorite cousin's recipe of tapioca pudding. It takes a while to cook and you have to sir and stir so I propped up my phone pulled up a bar stool to the stove, had a cup of coffee and watched your wonderful video while stirring. Thank you! PS who won the Christmas tree?
I couldn't wait for this video. Everything you do is so meaningful. This looks so much better than those fantasy land decorations. I love the cookie cutters scattered around especially Santa. So meaningful.
Absolutely love your home! The warmth and love shows so much, plus the simplicity of color and decorations is a welcome addition. Thank you for sharing and I hope your holidays are Merry and Bright!
Fun ideas, the hymnal garland was my favorite. Your Christmas video last year is when I started watching you, and i have enjoyed ever video since. It is always fun to see what your up to!
Andrea, I'm all about ambiance, and fairy lights add that sparkle no matter the season. Natural wood paired with white is so calming. Thanks for all the inspiration.
I Love your styling so natural and beautiful!! It’s very easy on the eye and flows so nicely though out your home . You’ve given me some great idea. Thanks for sharing
Love your beautifully elegant Christmas decor, Andrea! Everything is so pretty in each room, as well as your entire first floor, as one space opens into the next:). I love the softness of the atmosphere you've created inviting everyone in! Thanks so much for sharing your tips ~ loved being with you, Sweetie pie! Many hugs, ~Susan
Popcorn makes your house smell stale if you live in a humid climate. I love your ideas. Double sided tape makes beautiful packages because it isn't visible.
Love your holiday home, simplified and charming. Looking for a pair of skates to add ribbon and jingle bells for the front door.! Greenery is so inexpensive or free just adds to our winter wonderland ambience. Thank you for your wonderful tips. Merry Christmas to all.🎄
Andrea, you mentioned orange slice garland. This year I did, what my aunt was making every year. She took fresh orange and stick very tightly cloves. It’s smell like potpourri and you can put on the shelve or even better, hang it.
I try to get ribbon and cards( especially) Thank you cards at thrift stores or GW stores.Retired a couple of weeks ago and hopefully will get to make some nice decorations.
It's so funny you would say that. My theme for Christmas this year is "Brown Paper Packages Tied Up With Strings".... I don't own a Cricut yet, (my daughter and I want to get one together for our businesses), but I had a friend make a decal of both the verses to make my own signs. Lol! Also some decals for Easter too. I also have bottle brushes (from Walmart) , little trees(Hobby Lobby, thrifted, aldi, everywhere) and fairy lights SAMS CLUB, a pk of 4 with batteries included last year)all around my house.I have a silver trophy vase too that I'm adding red magnolias to that look like amarillas I'm so excited, my house is a wreck right now but I'm excited!
Sounds really nice - I love the idea of the silver trophy vase ! I’ll keep an eye out for one while thrifting ! PS now I can’t get that song out of my mind, lol !
You do such a beautiful job, honestly! It is more than a look, it invokes a feeling. Im wondering if you could possibly show how you tie the ribbons, is there a certain way you do it? My skill level is painfully low but I would love to try the ribbon and the hymnal garland. Thank you for the beautiful ideas and your wisdom. You are honestly a blessing.
This is really nice, I’m tired of all the videos that looked like Hobby Lobby, Kirklands or Michaels took over the house. You won’t get sick of this subtle decor.
Aw, thank you so much!
I literally thought the same thing as I was looking for inspiration yesterday before heading out to our local thrift store.
Oh I so agrer. Love the dimlpe natural look.
Love the classic and timeless looks. I especially love the hymn garland. I’m going to make some this afternoon.

I Agree, and so Sweet and Sincere.♥️
Couldn’t have said it better. This is by far one of my favorite channels. Another good one to watch is Maranda Christine, a sweet and beautiful girl.
@@robinnieto2703 oh I love miranda. She is a kentucky girl.lives close to where I do.but this us a wonderful friendly channel

Great idea!
Brilliant!! ❤

You know we can still hear you even if we don't see you. Seeing the decorations is much more interesting than your break aways to your face.
When my son was little, I used to wrap the pictures on the wall with wrapping paper and ribbon. It always looked great!
Mittens and winter knit scarves added to that empty middle basket by skates would look very nice too. Thrift shop has lots of scarves.
Great video! You offered some wonderful ideas. I think I’ll make some of hymnal garland. Yours is beautiful❤️
Another idea is to look at hardcover books with the slip covers that are red & green (or whichever color you decorate with for Christmas) & create a cute stack of them. I love stacking other decor on top for more height.

Love the Christmas hymn garland. But not the idea of cutting up books. Especially a hymnal 😏. But lovely ideas. Thanks for sharing

I'm about to run out to the thrift store so had to watch this before stepping out!
How perfect! I hope it inspires you!
Love your holiday home, simplified and charming. Looking for a pair of skates to add ribbon and jingle bells for the front door.! Greenery is so inexpensive or free just adds to our winter wonderland ambience. Thank you for your wonderful tips. Merry Christmas to all.🎄
Andrea, you mentioned orange slice garland. This year I did, what my aunt was making every year. She took fresh orange and stick very tightly cloves. It’s smell like potpourri and you can put on the shelve or even better, hang it.
Simply darling ideas 😘
Just so exquisitely done. You make my heart smile🙏
Love the gift boxes
I found those small lights at dollar tree !!
I try to get ribbon and cards( especially) Thank you cards at thrift stores or GW stores.Retired a couple of weeks ago and hopefully will get to make some nice decorations.
It's so funny you would say that. My theme for Christmas this year is "Brown Paper Packages Tied Up With Strings".... I don't own a Cricut yet, (my daughter and I want to get one together for our businesses), but I had a friend make a decal of both the verses to make my own signs. Lol! Also some decals for Easter too.
I also have bottle brushes (from Walmart) , little trees(Hobby Lobby, thrifted, aldi, everywhere) and fairy lights SAMS CLUB, a pk of 4 with batteries included last year)all around my house.I have a silver trophy vase too that I'm adding red magnolias to that look like amarillas
I'm so excited, my house is a wreck right now but I'm excited!
Sounds really nice - I love the idea of the silver trophy vase ! I’ll keep an eye out for one while thrifting ! PS now I can’t get that song out of my mind, lol !
I recently made a birch bark tree garland tied on a jute twine for my fireplace.
So peaceful and elegant and timeless
You do such a beautiful job, honestly! It is more than a look, it invokes a feeling. Im wondering if you could possibly show how you tie the ribbons, is there a certain way you do it? My skill level is painfully low but I would love to try the ribbon and the hymnal garland. Thank you for the beautiful ideas and your wisdom. You are honestly a blessing.
The garland has held up so well! www.pineandprospecthome.com/diy-christmas-hymn-garland/
