I have used the same decorations for almost 30 years. Some years I get a new decoration and some years I declutter some. My kids like when I put up the same stuff every year.
Haha! He is 2 years old, and he doesn't remember last year so it was really fun to decorate with him. He was in awe of everything. =) I hope you are having a nice day.
Some of our decorations date to my husband's grandparents. My own parents decluttered much of the tree decor I grew up with but luckily the Price family's old glass ornaments are very similar, and I love having a mix of ornaments that are up to 100 years old with newer ones we've chosen ourselves.
Your littlest boy makes my heart melt. Such a helper! My little boy is 33 now. Aww . . . . Enjoy every moment. I know I did and I continue to enjoy each day today. The simpler I make my life, the more beautiful it is. God bless you :)
Your home looks so festive and inviting. I love to see you & your mom cooking, decorating and enjoying time together ❣️❣️Thanks so much for the Snowman print. Love & Best Wishes to you & your family this Christmas!❤️🎁🎄
What great problem solving to add the star to the top BEFORE adding the last tier when assembling the tree. What an amazing gift you have to be able to paint your own seasonal decor. Merry Christmas !
Love your painting too….but just a suggestion sign it and write the year too for later reference for your family….so special and unique. Happy Christmas 🎄
@ thank you, you too! Beautiful day in RC today. Headed to my grandsons holiday performance at school today. One of the great perks of me now being retired!
Your home is beautiful! 🎄 I AGREE and don’t follow trends , often using the same decor as years ago brings back so many cherished memories, yet another thing I love about Christmas’ 🎄⭐️🎄 Oh my goodness little Levi is so sweet ! ❤️😊
Oh, gosh, I'm actually getting tired of trendy Christmas! My kids are all teens, and I've learned over the years that they feel most excited when we have the same decor every year. And their happiness at Christmas is what matters most.
I love how you decorate your house.. I smiled when you said that you have the same decorations every year because I DO HAVE THE SAME TOO!! I just put it in a different spot every year 😝 I have my TIMER on our Christmas lights on our window Love your channel Shannon ❤
Having 9 cats so putting up a tree would be a disaster! No kids or grandkids so it’s ok. I’ve been just putting out a few things and changing pillow covers indoor and focusing more on my front porch! Happy holidays!
Oh my goodness, the sweet lil ⛄️ snowman art. Thank you for sharing him with us!! Merry Christmas!! I love your family and channel soo so much!++❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love your home!!! So cozy, lovely, tidy. Thank you for focusing on simplicity and not adding stress and unnecessary expense to our lives at Christmas. ❤ P.s. your snowman art is SO cute!!
I much prefer your cozy Christmas decor with memory-filled things rather than trendy glitz! You have the right idea for how to make holidays fun and special. The gingerbread houses and the snowman painting were so cute!
we're with you, hubs and I don't shop for each other anymore - we just have my sibs over for dins and chat and laughter....its all in how you enjoy, not trying to impress anyone anymore....I hope you and your fam have a wonderful holiday! ♥
Great video!! Levi is just precious ❤my kids all live far away and we haven’t done gifts for years. Instead we all get together for a family trip.works out great!! No holidays stress or worries about all the money spent
Your home looks so beautiful and festive for Christmas. I have most of the same ornaments and decor from years ago. I don't pay attention to whats trending either. I cant draw or paint, but took one photo of snow on a pine tree and one of our dog Sophie walking in the snow. Used my app on my phone to change them to black and white and had them printed for my Christmas art. Your soup recipe looks delicious, will try it soon. Always love seeing your kids and Mom in the videos. Merry Christmas.
Your house looks beautiful and not overwhelmed with decorations. Try red lentils in your soup! I make a big batch of red lentil soup almost every week for lunches. And, I LOVE your gift strategy. I like Christmas crafts too...this year I'm making stars out of T.P. and paper towel rolls! (Easy to find the directions for that).
I'll have to try making red lentil soup! Thank you for the suggestion, I have only seen green lentils in our local store so I will have to hunt around for those. Thank you for the craft idea, I will look that up.
Omg, Shannon. Your snowman is so adorable! I love it. Levi is so precious. ❤ Everything looks so nice and cozy. Merry Christmas to you and your family. 🎅☃️🎄
Thanks for the simple Christmas. That’s what I did this year I Decluttered a whole bunch of Christmas stuff and I kept the stuff that was sentimental and I think less is more. I’m gonna have to try the gingerbread houses merry Christmas and have a safe, healthy and happy new year.
2 videos in a week yeyyyyy.......😊 home looks cozy n beautiful😍😍 also u r multi talented. I like your art work.Your lemon 🍋 painting is just wow👌👌actually all your paintings r nice.
Love the snowman painting! You are very talented, Shannon. ♥ Your home is lovely and cozy and just the right amount of Christmas decoration. Happy Holidays! ♥♥♥
Love all the cozy touches you added to your home for Christmas. That Little Book of Hygge is one of my favorites. I’ll have to get it out to read again. Also I love how Levi is always in the videos helping you! He is just so sweet! Thank you for the adorable snowman printable you painted. Merry Christmas to you and your family.🎄
I love this feel-good video. Thank you, Shannon, for sharing your simple, happy christmas prep. Have a wonderful Chriatmas with your family, and end this year knowing the wonderful influence you have been for myself and many others.
Shannon, I'm so excited about the Lentil Soup recipe & the snowman picture. Snowmen are my favorite & My Hubby has gotten me a new one every yr for 24 yrs. ⛄️
Thank you Shannon for your lovely videos and your snowman art - it’s adorable!! Merry Christmas to you and your family and of course Grandma (she’s adorable too!)
We use timers too, Shannon. What were those paints, Shannon? Watercolor, acrylic? Is it a kit? The snowman turned out so cute!! High five! Merry Christmas!!
Shannon, I tried to sign up for your email and free printable but some thing went wrong. I got all signed up but never got the confirmation email. Would love to be part of your email community ❤
I’m so sorry about that! Did you check your spam folder? If not try to sign up again and I will see if I can find you (if your name is the same on the email).
Little Levi saying "I'm helping Mama" just melted my heart. Love the simple cozy Christmas Decor!
yeah that got me too and I don't even have kids....♥
He's such a great helper! 😄 I love doing things with him.
I have used the same decorations for almost 30 years. Some years I get a new decoration and some years I declutter some. My kids like when I put up the same stuff every year.
I love how Levi said, "I like It!" when you assembled the tree!!
Haha! He is 2 years old, and he doesn't remember last year so it was really fun to decorate with him. He was in awe of everything. =) I hope you are having a nice day.
We mostly have same Christmas decorations we’ve had for 50 years. Kids & grandkids love the tradition every year.
It's so nice to have decorations you can enjoy with your family each year.

Thank you! We are soaking up all these fun moments while he is still little. =) I hope you are having a nice holiday season.
I don’t want my house to be decorated like everyone else’s! Love my old stuff!
Snowman is adorable ❤
Thank you! =)
Beautiful decorating! It's nice how involved Levi can be this year because he has grown so much.
Thank you! It's nice to have a little helper.
The tiniest helper is precious. The wonder and innocence in his eyes is beyond priceless. ❤❤❤❤❤
I LOVE your snowman painting; you are good!
Thank you so much! I hope you have a wonderful holiday. =)

Year round I don't follow decorating trends. I use what I like and what sparks memories of times and people gone by. So special and makes me smile.
I admire your painting skills. My adult son has that same artistic talent and I am always impressed. ❤
Love your painting too….but just a suggestion sign it and write the year too for later reference for your family….so special and unique. Happy Christmas 🎄
Thank you! I always sign my art, but I will have to remember to add a date. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas. =)
Your Christmas decor looks beautiful.
Love the Snowman painting!

Thank you so much! I worked all day editing yesterday to get this out =) I hope you are having a nice week so far.
The snowman painting is adorable. Your home looks very cozy and festive.

Oh, gosh, I'm actually getting tired of trendy Christmas! My kids are all teens, and I've learned over the years that they feel most excited when we have the same decor every year. And their happiness at Christmas is what matters most.
I agree! It's so fun to see the same decorations each year. It's like an old friend that visits once a year lol.
There are memories of growing up decorating the tree when I was just a kid. Those memories are important and warm.
Everything looks festive and cozy! Enjoy! 🎄☃️😊
I love how you decorate your house..
I smiled when you said that you have the same decorations every year because I DO HAVE THE SAME TOO!! I just put it in a different spot every year 😝
I have my TIMER on our Christmas lights on our window
Love your channel Shannon ❤
It’s so much fun to change up the placement of holiday decor each year! I hope you are having a nice day so far =)
Having 9 cats so putting up a tree would be a disaster! No kids or grandkids so it’s ok. I’ve been just putting out a few things and changing pillow covers indoor and focusing more on my front porch! Happy holidays!
Happy Holidays!
Loved your snowman. You could add a few little birds at its feet - if you’d like. 😉
That's a great suggestion! I was in such a rush to get that painting done. It would be fun to go back in and add something.
Oh my goodness, the sweet lil ⛄️ snowman art. Thank you for sharing him with us!! Merry Christmas!! I love your family and channel soo so much!++❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Yay! I am so happy to hear that you are using the art. =)

The simplicity is filled with Christmas vibes. Love it! I may have missed it, but do you a skirt around the tree?
Yes I do! We have a colorful skirt around the tree, I must have forgot to film putting it on. =)
Beautiful Shannon ! Levi is so sweet. Merry Christmas to you and your family . Hi from SC.😊🎄💕🙏🏻
Thank you! Merry Christmas to you and your family too!
I made lentil soup today also
It’s one of our favorite things to make this time of year!
Shannon, this was such a great video. 🥰❤️🥳👏
Thank you so much! I hope you are having a nice day. =)
Good job!!
❤❤❤
We use timers too, Shannon. What were those paints, Shannon? Watercolor, acrylic? Is it a kit? The snowman turned out so cute!! High five! Merry Christmas!!
Thank you! Yes, they are watercolor paints. =)
Love your Snowman watercolor! Precious!
Where do you get your pillow covers? I love that idea.
Hi Joy, I found those covers on Amazon a few months ago. I needed some new Christmas covers because my last ones fell apart. =)
♥️🥰💕
Hi Shannon! Love this video- Where did you get the black tray to set your cups in?
Hello, The black tray is actually the underside of that footstool. So the top flips over and becomes a tray/table. =)
Why not use the mantel? For stockings?
Do you buy for one another’s stockings? The adult stockings I mean.
We usually get funny things like toothpaste, chapstick, candy, and everyday stuff. =)
👋🏾;)😘😘😘😘😘🇫🇷
I didn’t see the recipe for the lentil soup?
Hello, the recipe is in the description box, but I will link it here too. =) cookieandkate.com/best-lentil-soup-recipe/
You need an immersion blender!
Thanks I will look that up.
@@shannontorrens1 Some people call it a stick blender, plop it right into soup pan.
I decluttered my immersion blender, haha! Who knew! Love MOM
@kathyol That's ironic, and funny!

Found it!!! Thank you ❤️❤️🙌🙌
@@melissataylor8910 Yay! I am so happy it worked!
I would get insulation pumped in those walls.
That is our plan =) We have to save up for this.
Trendy Christmas is just a gimmick to make money. I decorate the way I like with what I have.
