    If you get a reply from someone acting like me saying you won a prize and to message them on Telegram, that is a SCAM! I will not reply saying anything like that! Do not fall for it! Even though they are using my picture, that is NOT me! BEWARE!

    Missed your last few videos had to look you up and make sure you two are doing ok. Love you both.

  • @berlinbeachkat4878
    @berlinbeachkat4878 ปีที่แล้ว

    I brought so many old ornaments from my grandparents and what we used when I was a kid from Germany with me years ago. I did collect Hallmark ornaments when they still looked nice for the kids. No ribbons, no sticks, no ball ornaments. I like to reuse everything. It feels so comforting to me to rediscover the old pieces new again every year. It’s a piece of my family with me even if they already passed on. The extra light is a real good idea. Great tip!
    For you, Jason and your family Happy Thanksgiving. Thank Leslie you for your nice channel! 🦃

    Thanks for the ribbon tips!!! I organized my Christmas last year and found I have A LOT of ribbon to use! I have three trees. The big tree has it all, old & sentimental ornaments and new ones too. The porch tree has bird ornaments, dried hydrangeas, and berry picks. The dining room pencil tree is different every year. Last year was gold & silver. This year is old fashioned with dried fruit and old wooden toy ornaments.

  • @lucybloom7600
    @lucybloom7600 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Happy Holidays Leslie & Jason! Your skinny tree fits perfectly in this corner. You can tell the Tree knows she's special and beautiful. She's all a glow. I love all Christmas trees with many moods. I like all pearly and silver blue ornaments and white lights to full on traditional tress with decades of antique or favorite ornaments the family and friends have passed down thorough the ages. Last year I saw the most stunning artificial, lightly flocked white tree dressed tastefully in shades of purples and lavender ribbons and dripping in crystals of all sizes with light silvery blue teeny lights. It looked like a million dollar tree. Elegant, graceful and perfectly balanced. I don't think I'll ever forget that tree. You have made Jason's special room so lovely. Family and friends will fill this room with such joy and memories. Especially with those heated floors and maybe falling snow.😇🌲🐾

  • @cecwintonyk8228
    @cecwintonyk8228 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I am actually excited to put my primarily red and gold tree with pops of white up this year (didn't bother for two years with Covid restrictions since I wasn't hosting anyone). I have big ribbon bows with long bead dangles that I made but I am tired of them so seeing your curled ribbon lengths has given me a great idea and I think I will swap the bows out. When I decorate, all the ornaments are wired on so it is really easy to tuck some further inside the tree. In the past I have even wired a ball or two on the top of a branch to fill in a pesky space that a pick didn't fill . Once it is all decorated, nobody would ever know the ball is upside down. Can't wait to see the rest of your decorating.

  • @cathymadsen2930

    I’m decorating with oranges and rusts and deep green for Thanksgiving - deep green, royal pink and purples for Advent - then bright vibrant colors with lots of whites for all 12 Days of Christmas (December 25 to January 6, commemorating when the Three Kings arrived to worship the newborn Savior.)
