What a wonderful escape from the gross consumerism and excess being shoved down our throats this time of year. A beautiful and stress reducing video with an important message. Thanks so much!
Just thinking the same thing! Had been watching Clean & decorate with me videos and people are putting fake trees in very room of the house and spending hundreds of dollars to change their Christmas themes. Problem was I was starting to get caught up in it! Thank you for the reality check!
The same glue we prepared in my country Cuba whrn I was a child. We used it for school projects. We did not have other glue to use. I remember my mother making the glue in the kitchen. Oh! It is such a precious memory.
The greatest thing about Fairyland Cottage and living minimally, is that it allows you to get in touch with your creativity and artistic skills. I like what you do with natures gifts! And me and my family also reuse the same decorations every year too. We've had the same ones for a decade now. Ill always be subscribed to your channel! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and Fairyland Cottage. See ya next year! ☺😊🌈🎅🎄🎁🎉💝
Nothing wrong with using the same decorations like your granny did. It's only once a year, it's sustainable and it creates traditions... 😉 Have an amazing Christmas break!
I remember my Dad roasting sweet chestnuts over the fire for us at this time of year. It's one of those precious memories I have of him. Merry Christmas to you and your family xoxox
Me too.. Dad used to prop them on the bars of the open fire. It was usually a hit and miss affair as one of two fell in the fire or they were burnt one side and raw the other! Happy, happy memories. I roast mine in the oven but they just don't taste the same
I've made my holiday decor more natural in the last few years and it makes Christmas so much more enjoyable. Just some lights on a natural tree, orange slices, homemade ornaments made of cranberry and cinnamon. It smells AMAZING. This year, on my dining room table, I put a candle in the middle of a bowl of red apples and pine, and that's my holiday decor along with my tree. Christmas is so much nicer when consumerism is left out of it.
I had a walk in the wood, picking few branches, fir cones and leaves that fell, to make a bew decoration 🙂 I thought of you ☺ Have a joyful Christmas 💖
I see you are using pinecones they are versatile I like to use pinecones as air fresher put essential oil on the leaves and set in the bathroom, bedside table, living room. Makes the room smell good without all the extras ♥️♥️
Today’s I’m cleaning and decorating the house so this was the perfect inspiration for the natural and simple theme I’m using this year for the first time
Thank you Niamh and may you and your family have a wonderful Christmas. You have started my Sunday mornings off showing all the wonderful things to be grateful for and a peaceful way to live.
I absolutely love your videos and one thing they have taught me already is to think and plan ahead - collect berries, chestnuts etc. in summer and autumn so we have something to snack on in winter, collect moss and oranges in autumn so we have Christmas decoration etc. Instead of buying everything that we desire right here, right now because it is available your approach makes us pause for a little while and think ahead. It teaches us patience as we do something and put effort in and reap the benefits weeks or months later. This is a rare skill nowadays and I'm glad your videos remind me of grooming it constantly :)
Thank you for your sweet spirit which is consistent, it's very healing in this world that has gotten so frightening. Warm loving hugs to you and your family from Vermont
My great grandmother used to make flour paste for my art projects when I was a little girl. We used it to make everything, including newspaper/stick kites! She was the ultimate teacher in reusable/sustainable living, as most who lived through the depression were. This video made me think of her. Thank you.
I still have the Christmas bells that my Grandmother made almost 80 years ago -- just tin foil and plaster of Paris -- I have no idea how she made them. I also only purchase glass ornaments for reuse.
Thank you for creating such a lovely, calm harbor on the internet! I hope you will have a wonderful time off in this magical time of the year - Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for you and your family.
Such a beautiful way to celebrate winter and the festive season 🎄 I so love your channel, it is a haven of peace and tranquility. Wishing you a magical 2020 💕💕
Big thanks to you Niamh for this great year of amazing videos! I've been looking forward to every Sunday just to have a few minutes' look at your fairyland! You have shown the way how simple and beautiful life can be when you focus on gratitude for what you have and respect for nature! Happy holidays to you and your family!
Roasted chestnuts is still a favorite of mine. Mom would use them in her holidays dressing but I would eat them as nature's candy. Such a delight, like decorating with ivy and holly with red berries and fragrant pine boughs beginning on the solstice...making ready for Christmas with candles and lights and old family glass ornaments. Happy Holidays. See you next year.
Eliza Bradley thank you Eliza your support is everything. Thank you for bringing love and kindness to the channel. May 2020 be a magical year for you. X

Tokyo 1964 how lovely. Was it an open fire? I’d love to try that.
Special memories indeed :-)

I sent out many holiday cards but did not make them myself. Glitter all over the place. Wish i did this instead. So simple and sweet.
A G it’s ok it’s the thought and time of sending out a card that people will appreciate
A G hehehe the fairies just wanted to sprinkle their dust all over your home :-)
@@FairylandCottage Hahaha indeed they did 😂
I had a walk in the wood, picking few branches, fir cones and leaves that fell, to make a bew decoration 🙂 I thought of you ☺
Have a joyful Christmas 💖
