Loved this video, especially since our kids are grown! A terrific, short Christmas-themed novel is A Redbird Christmas by Fannie Flagg. Funny and charming, and I think it has that bygone vibe you’d like! Merry Christmas!
Shannon, hanging the lights vertically is genius! It draws the eyes up and makes the tree look bigger. My kids are 13-25 and it's the little things that they remember. Cutting out and decorating cookies, making eggnog, Midnight church service and opening stockings on Christmas Eve, Christmas movies, new board games. I love your ideas.
Thank you so much! I agree it is the little things that all add up to having a super fun holiday season and Christmas day. My boys are finally at the age where they can understand all the funny Christmas movies and they are loving them. I hope you have a great week =)
I totally agree with all the comments of how warm and inviting your holiday home looks and feels. However, what is most evident is that you radiate a genuine feeling of happiness and contentment. And, the best part is, all of your followers reap your rewards!
Your woodland wreath turned out so, so pretty! Thanks for the other ideas, as well. Your artistic talent is evident in your decorating and crafting. The drawing of your son will be a special memory for him as the years pass.
Shannon, all of your home projects over this past year have made such a difference to the cozy warmth of your home. Becoming intentional about happiness and joy is so important to a happy life. Your mom is such a wonderful role model for happiness and fun in everything she does. ❤
As soon as I saw that little red house garland, I said to myself, "That looks like a Scandish Home decoration!" I met Noemi (after watching her videos) at the Scand -fair in Portland, Oregon several years ago, and she put me in her video (which was very embarrassing!).
Shannon, you are ready for Christmas the house looks so cozy and festive! The new curtain is so adorable! What a fun and relaxing time with your mom this is what the holiday season is about! I really enjoyed your video and thank you so much for mentioning my art I so appreciate it! Merry Christmas Shannon and I so appreciate your friendship! More then words can say! 😃🥰🤗❤❤❤❤
As usual, All so lovely & cozy Shannon. I love how you don't overthink and make simple additions/ changes, like with the kitchen curtains. That fabric is adorable. You have seriously made me think harder about getting a sewing machine for very simple things like that! I also love how the whole family is all doing something to help. It reminds me of how our kids used to be..they were SO excited when I got the ornaments out. Our tree is a live frasier fir from menards, 5-6 feet, cute and slender. It has lights but still waits for ornaments bc I do it more slowly without the kids at home now. And oh my, how Grant puts up those outdoor lights with such ease?! No worries about him falling off of the roof, right?! I like all white lights indoors but I have always dreamed of having multi color outdoors, just something simple like y'all have. We have a simple brick ranch & I'm not sure how to hang them on the guttering. In our neighborhood, some people pay to have lights put up & we are much too frugal for that😮 Maybe someday; Grant makes it look so easy. Oh! Am getting ready to buy pecans at Costco to make your cinnamon pecans to hand out, yum!!❤❤❤ Happy Tuesday 🤍🌲☃️
Oh, I can't wait to make those pecans too, they are so good. I don't make them often because I eat too many. Our lights are really easy to hang outside because our home is low, but my parents have a 2 story and that is hard! I can see why people might hire someone for a tall roof line. I hope you are having a nice week.
Cherry Christmas decor. Love that your boy's helped decorate the Christmas tree. It will be wonderful memories for them along with their individual homemade Christmas ornaments that their mom made.🎄🎄🎄
I add pops of red too. Red makes anything look so much more festive. But oh my....your boys have grown so much. You have such great helpers. Good job Mom and Dad. Thanks for having your Mom in the video too.
No wonder you and Cathy & Noemi are so creative, great with colour & come up with wonderful ideas - you’re all artists! I have a stack of Christmas cards from my parents - tried to give them away at a yard sale but nobody wanted them so am keeping them for craft creating & decorating. Cathy would remember when we cut out paper dolls & made daisy chains. My grandmother lined shelves with cut out paper decorations overhanging the front of the shelves. Simplicity can look & feel so good! Thanks for bringing cheer.
Yes, we love creating, it's so much fun too! I had paper dolls when I was little and I remember changing all the outfits. I hope you have a wonderful day and a Merry Christmas too.
All of your Christmas decor turned out so nice. Very festive but not cluttered. The crafts you made with your Mom are so cute; love them. Slowing down and not having a full schedule of events is so important. I love the simple time of baking, enjoying my home and family. Thanks for sharing.
So sweet ❤ your house looks so festive--- in a manageable way! Love the Levi portrait ornament! Your mom is so fun--i love it when she comes to hang out with you 💕
It looks great! We bought a pre-lit tree in 2005. The last of the lights finally died this year. We add our own light strings now, but plug it into the string that came with the tree to use the on-off pedal. :) It’s getting pretty needle-bare, but we’re still using it!
I was a little hesitant for decorating as the video went all your family makes me smile when you put those woodland creatures well now I’m giggling with you so adorable that wreath lolol .I love those hydrangeas I have the same unfortunately I didn’t bring them in this year 🤦🏼♀️Ok now I’m there thanks for the post I’m glad I finally watched ❤️🌲
😊 thank you for watching. My husband was making me laugh as I was putting the woodland creatures on the wreath, he isn't into Christmas decor so he thinks it's all funny.
I made my granddaughters Christmas aprons with the same fabric as your curtains! It’s adorable! I am new to sewing and I am adding it to my Christmas gift giving tradition. Last year I made four stockings for gifts. I made Scandinavian Christmas star ornaments for the first time too. They are easy and fun. My childhood memories include making ornaments and gingerbread men with my mom. Children make Christmas extra special. This year my motto is keep it simple! Merry Christmas!
Most of our neighbors started decorating for Christmas on November 1st!!!! We have always waited until after Thanksgiving to keep it meaningful and special. I love everything you do Shannon! You are such a great role model for young families. I'm your mom's age and have gained so much from watching your channel too. Enjoy the Christmas season! 🎄
I like October 31st bc I don't care for Halloween so it makes me happy to have the positive focus of Christmas ❤❤❤ Also, it gives me two full months to enjoy the full Christmas spirit since the Fall season ( pumpkins ) got the two full months of September & October.
Silly is so underrated! Some of the best moments happen when we let ourselves be silly. Thank you for sharing your home and decorating activities. I think your home looks festive and feels warm and welcoming. I am always inspired, and especially this year with this video. Wishing you all the happiest of holidays.
Thank you so much! That wreath is probably silly to most people, but it was so fun to put it together and every time I look at it I think how cute LOL. Yes to more silly moments.
You are making me excited to do some decorating. And of course, as usual, I love your Mom's idea for the tree trunk!! and I'm stealing your idea of putting little animals in the wreath--I love it
I love the forest wood creatures you added to the wreath. Clever ideal! The house looks great outside and inside! Merry Christmas! God bless you and yours!!
I don’t celebrate Xmas 🎅 but I loved watching how you all decorated your home so beautifully. Everything is so tastefully done ❤ the cookies 🍪 look yummy 😋 loved the curtains too. Happy holidays & your Mom scared of spiders 🕷️ 😂😂 loved the hydrangeas & your creative crafts. Loved the tour ❤🙏🇮🇱❤️
Just love the way you decorated your home. It is just right. I don't like a lot of decorations but this looks great. Your fireplace area looks so good now and a nice cosy area to relax in. You are both so talented. Love your mum's crafts for the boys. Greetings from Ireland.
Shannon, I love your videos. Your home looks so cozy and inviting. I love how much time you get to spend with your mom and make wonderful memories and little projects with each other as well. You guys are so fun to watch together. Thank you and Merry Christmas ❤️
Shannon, Loved this video! Your home looks magical and I especially loved the Christmas excitement and wonderment in Levi’s eyes as he pondered the tree! It’s good to see a relaxed and happy look on a Mom’s face during this time of the year!! 👍🎅🏻❤️
Thank you! I am so happy to have you here. Levi has been redecorating the tree ever since it went up LOL. We were sure to put all the safe ornaments at the bottom. =)
We buy a new decoration for the tree each year - every item on the tree has a story to tell, and decorating the tree is one of our Christmas highlights. I love your Christmas decor and especially the woodland wreath, but I can't get used to seeing someone putting up Christmas lights while wearing shorts and flip-flops! It is super cold here and we had snow over the weekend.
Your home is looking so beautiful after all the changes you’ve made to it and all the cozy Christmas things you added. Have a wonderful blessed Christmas!
Your home looks so cozy and the perfect amount of Xmas decor. I also like decorating for xmas with very intentional placement through out my house. Great to see the whole family in the video.❤
Yes, I agree with the intentional decor. Less is more, I think. My very favorite Christmas piece is new this year and handmade, a crocheted nativity made by a friend with three sweet pieces, Mary Joseph, and baby Jesus ❤❤❤
What a cozy video, Shannon! Kathy - what fiber do you use for the lettering on the ornaments? Yarn? I need to add lettering to my kids’ stockings, but embroidery thread is much too thin. I’ve never seen a green hydrangea here in the upper Midwest. Probably because they’re all frozen and long gone before they have the chance. Poor things. 🤣 Thanks, ladies!
I really liked it! I had no idea what to expect because I had never read anything by that author before, but it was great. An easy read and it got me in the Christmas spirit. =) I hope you are doing well.
Love this video, you guys are the cutest family. I love the vintage style curtains in the kitchen window, so fun. I like the old school Christmas lights too. Happy holidays!
Shannon, I love your videos. You have great ideas for organizing but you are not over the top where you cannot have beautiful sentimental things for the holidays. You are so relatable and I love that you are so family driven. Did not realize your family doesn't eat meat until today watching your video. When did you decide to quit eating meat and was there a reason why?
Hello, I have had these for years and every time they wear out I buy a pair from the same place. They are from LL Bean. The slippers are really good quality my mom wears the same ones too lol.
I don't eat meat either. Have you ever thought of doing a video of some of your easy go to recipes? I'm a horrible cook 🤪 😂 Cherish those moments with your mom. My mom has passed on and I miss her so much. We use to do crafts together and that holds so many good memories.
I am so sorry to hear about your mom. Every time someone leaves me a comment about losing their mom I start to cry. I am also not a great cook, but I have quite a few staple recipes that I can throw together. In most cases, we make the same food that involves meat, but just switch it out for fake meat or leave out the meat aspect altogether. =)
Love your Christmas decor'.... It's not too much.. !! It's just right.!! Your mom needs to wrangle the spider from her car and put it back on the plant for you... (Isn't there a story about a Christmas spider or something like that??) (oh oh oh... and THANK YOU for NOT shoving Xmas down our throats in October..and waiting until after Thanksgiving..!!!!!!!!!!!) 🎄jo
You’ve hit the goldilocks spot . Not too much not too little! ❤❤
Look at little Levi, so cute
I love your home and your Christmas look, it looks so warm and inviting without feeling cluttered and over done.
OMG. I think I'm going to watch this once a week until Christmas.
Wow! Thank you, I hope you are having a nice weekend.
Loved this video, especially since our kids are grown! A terrific, short Christmas-themed novel is A Redbird Christmas by Fannie Flagg. Funny and charming, and I think it has that bygone vibe you’d like! Merry Christmas!
“Sometimes you just have to do ridiculous things that make you happy.” ❤❤❤ Your woodland creatures made me happy too! 😊
Thank you! Cheers to doing more ridiculous things for happiness. =)
I loved how big brother was teaching Levi, where the star went at the tippy top❤
It's so fun to see my boys teach each other things. They even teach me new things all the time too. =)
I have watched lots of Christmas videos, and everyone I think, gee, no kids are helping… glad your boys are involved.
Oh boy, it would be impossible to keep them away. They LOVE decorating the tree lol. Plus I think it's more fun this way. =)
Shannon, hanging the lights vertically is genius! It draws the eyes up and makes the tree look bigger. My kids are 13-25 and it's the little things that they remember.

Thank you! You are so right my mom is a great role model for having fun and not taking life too seriously =) I hope you are having a nice week so far.
Shannon Dear please accept my deepest gratitude for uploading such a Wonderful Wonderful Wonderful video
Thank you! I hope you are having a good week.
As soon as I saw that little red house garland, I said to myself, "That looks like a Scandish Home decoration!" I met Noemi (after watching her videos) at the Scand -fair in Portland, Oregon several years ago, and she put me in her video (which was very embarrassing!).
I love that little garland! Noemi is so sweet how fun you were able to go to the scan fair.
I love your journey! So much fun not perfect! This is what it’s all about. Enjoyment.
Shannon, you are ready for Christmas the house looks so cozy and festive! The new curtain is so adorable! What a fun and relaxing time with your mom this is what the holiday season is about! I really enjoyed your video and thank you so much for mentioning my art I so appreciate it! Merry Christmas Shannon and I so appreciate your friendship! More then words can say! 😃🥰🤗❤❤❤❤
Thank you Noemi! I Love that garland so much, it's the pop of red our home needs. You are such a great friend ❤❤❤
Love this! 🎄✨ A string of twinkle lights at your baking area would make your evening baking so cozy and festive for you ❤💚
Great idea!!
Thank you, Shannon!
(And Fam!) ❤️💚

I add pops of red too. Red makes anything look so much more festive.
But oh my....your boys have grown so much. You have such great helpers. Good job Mom and Dad. Thanks for having your Mom in the video too.
Thank you so much! My boys are growing too fast. I hope you are doing well.
Your house is beautiful…..love the wreath ad curtains 🎄😊❤️love the ornaments
Thank you so much!

Love the Levi portrait ornament!
Your mom is so fun--i love it when she comes to hang out with you 💕
Thank you so much!
Love the little ornaments you and your mom made ❤
Thank you! That was a fun project. =)
I love your creative and festive touches!
Thank you so much!
Very pretty, Shannon. I love what you did to your outside light fixture. I need to do that to give a little oomph to the outside of the house.
You mam and husband are wonderful never worry about them being themselves on camera ❤
It looks great! We bought a pre-lit tree in 2005. The last of the lights finally died this year. We add our own light strings now, but plug it into the string that came with the tree to use the on-off pedal. :)
It’s getting pretty needle-bare, but we’re still using it!
That is awesome you have been able to keep your tree for so long! I hope you are having a nice weekend.
Your home looks so warm, cozy and festive! I enjoyed watching you decorate and getting the kids involved too.
Thank you!
Such a cozy winter wonderland🎉
Your home looks very festive! Great job! ❤
Love the black dress. 80s vibes. Xx
Thank you!

Thank you!
Everything is just beautiful Shannon!!!

Thank you so much, Sharon, I am always happy to get your comments. I hope you have a nice weekend.
I enjoyed the video so much. My decor is super minimal. I always enjoy seeing the whole Family including your Mom
Thank you so much!

Great vid Shannon! Thanks for the small business links…got some of those gorgeous aprons for gifts!!❤
Oh, I am so happy you were able to find something. I love supporting small businesses. =)
Shannon, I love your videos. Your home looks so cozy and inviting. I love how much time you get to spend with your mom and make wonderful memories and little projects with each other as well. You guys are so fun to watch together. Thank you and Merry Christmas ❤️

Snow would be so fun (since we don't get it here). It's cooled down here a lot, but still in the 60's. =)
Shannon my tree is 38 years old am still using it...its 8 feet.Its up already...love your videos...hugs from Malaysia
That is great you can still use your tree! I bet it looks amazing.
I love that you have just embraced your kitchen • i personally love the era and think your kitchen is adorable ❣️
Thank you! It's fun for now =)
Your home is looking so beautiful after all the changes you’ve made to it and all the cozy Christmas things you added. Have a wonderful blessed Christmas!
Thank you! You too!
your home looks lovely and so ready for the season! nice vid!
Thank you!! 😊
Your house looks great..Merry Christmas to you and your family and your Mom .
Thank you! Merry Christmas to you too.
Your home looks so cozy and the perfect amount of Xmas decor. I also like decorating for xmas with very intentional placement through out my house. Great to see the whole family in the video.❤
Thank you so much!
Yes, I agree with the intentional decor. Less is more, I think. My very favorite Christmas piece is new this year and handmade, a crocheted nativity made by a friend with three sweet pieces, Mary Joseph, and baby Jesus ❤❤❤
What a cozy video, Shannon!
Kathy - what fiber do you use for the lettering on the ornaments? Yarn? I need to add lettering to my kids’ stockings, but embroidery thread is much too thin. I’ve never seen a green hydrangea here in the upper Midwest. Probably because they’re all frozen and long gone before they have the chance. Poor things. 🤣
Thanks, ladies!
I used Six Strand Floss embroidery thread, and I don't know much at all about embroidery thread. I just faked it. Kathy
So beautiful! Merry Christmas! ❤❤❤
Thank you! You too!
Everything looks so pretty ❤
Thank you! 🤗
My kids are all grown now. I miss the not perfect Christmas decor that i had when thwy helped me decorate.
My mom and I made wreaths like 6 years ago. We did the same thing… used woodland animals…. They are so cute. So it isn’t weird. 😂
Love your videos. Love your beautiful home, such a calm atmosphere, was excited to see your Christmas book, I read that one last year!
Oh, thank you! That was a fun book and a quick read too. =)
This was great!
Looks cozy and cheerful!!😊🐦
Your home looks gorgeous!
Thank you!! 😊
That was a good book, I read that last year!
I really liked it! I had no idea what to expect because I had never read anything by that author before, but it was great. An easy read and it got me in the Christmas spirit. =) I hope you are doing well.
I love your decor and videos! Thank u for all that u do! Merry Christmas to u and your family. ❤️🎄
Thank you so much for being here! I hope you had a nice weekend. =)
Really enjoyed your video. The house looks wonderful and you have done a great job of truly making a home
Thank you so much!
Thank you. Just love your Christmas decorations every year. Thank your mom I loved the tree idea.
Thank you so much!
Very interesting and inspiring content! ❤
Thanks so much!
Love this video, you guys are the cutest family. I love the vintage style curtains in the kitchen window, so fun. I like the old school Christmas lights too. Happy holidays!
Thank you so much! I hope you are having a nice weekend.
Such a fun video to watch, that I watched it twice!! Thank you!!
Thank you! I hope you are having a nice day.
Loved this!!!
You and your family are so adorable! Merry Christmas! 🎄

Beautiful :)
Thank you! 😊
Nice 🎄🎁❄️☃️
Happy holidays!
I am a Scandish mom subscriber
Yay! =) Happy to have you here.
I knew the houses garland was from Naomi 😊. She makes lovely decorations.
Yes, she has beautiful art.
I've been re-watching all your Christmas videos! Love all your ideas and simple home beauty! Merry Christmas ❤🎄
Thank you! Happy holidays =)

So beautiful!
❤Gorgeous! So many things here! Thank you, and Merry Christmas!
p.s. You have a good husband 😂!!!
Thank you so much!

I simplified my decor this year as well, and it feels so much better. Did I miss the recipe for your Mom's peanut butter cookies?
I forgot to link the recipe, Here it is: simple-veganista.com/vegan-peanut-butter-cookies/
thank you! @@shannontorrens1
Love your video Shannon well done and Happy Christmas to you and all your family ❤
Thank you and a Happy Christmas to you too. =)
Shannon, I love your videos. You have great ideas for organizing but you are not over the top where you cannot have beautiful sentimental things for the holidays. You are so relatable and I love that you are so family driven. Did not realize your family doesn't eat meat until today watching your video. When did you decide to quit eating meat and was there a reason why?
Thank you! We don't eat meat for lots of different reasons, but not one in particular. We have eaten this way since 2017 =)
💖
Can you please link your red slippers.
Hello, I have had these for years and every time they wear out I buy a pair from the same place. They are from LL Bean. The slippers are really good quality my mom wears the same ones too lol.
I don't eat meat either. Have you ever thought of doing a video of some of your easy go to recipes? I'm a horrible cook 🤪 😂
Cherish those moments with your mom. My mom has passed on and I miss her so much. We use to do crafts together and that holds so many good memories.
I am so sorry to hear about your mom. Every time someone leaves me a comment about losing their mom I start to cry. I am also not a great cook, but I have quite a few staple recipes that I can throw together. In most cases, we make the same food that involves meat, but just switch it out for fake meat or leave out the meat aspect altogether. =)
I legit thought you were going to say “ helps with the holiday season to have some alcohol “ 😂 oh boy 😜
Haha! Well maybe a little of that will help too JK
Looks very Hygge! Where is the Peanutbutter recipe?👋🎄🙋♀
Thank you, I forgot to link it. I will add it to the description box tomorrow 😁
Thank you very much - enjoy your cozy home with your f🥰amily@@shannontorrens1
So you just whipped out a portrait of your son? Yikes! Impressive, lady!
Love your Christmas decor'.... It's not too much.. !! It's just right.!! Your mom needs to wrangle the spider from her car and put it back on the plant for you... (Isn't there a story about a Christmas spider or something like that??) (oh oh oh... and THANK YOU for NOT shoving Xmas down our throats in October..and waiting until after Thanksgiving..!!!!!!!!!!!) 🎄jo
Haha I am happy to avoid the Christmas spider lol. I like the holiday decorations, but not too early =)
