    Your woodland tree has inspired me! Several years ago I wrote a book about my family legacy at the Grand Canyon. I am going to use diary entries, some over 115 years old, vintage photos of rustic life at the canyon, I even have one of my grandfather-in-law and a Kolb brother camped at rivers edge with a Merry Christmas sign 1911 tucked in the rocks behind them..How delightful...nature, history and most of all family from long ago!! Thanks for the little push!

      This is what I love. Nature. History. It doesn't get any better until you add Christmas, of course!

    Scottish woodland was my favorite but the frozen lake ran a very close second. Beautifully done!

    Both trees are so beautiful, but I would have to choose the Scottish Woodland as my favorite. It oozes warm and cozy vibes and is so lush and full of beautiful goodies to look at. You never stop gifting us with your creative and inspiring ideas. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous trees with us!

      I loved both trees. You are one amazing lady. I laughed when I saw you outside doing some of the crafts. We have snow here and it is in the teens during the day. I won’t be outside to repurpose any decor 😊

    @MerryBee707 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Stunning! If I were a guest in your home, I would be "that guest" who ignored the conversations, and became lost in the magic. I love how you combined the 3 ideas. Just stunning!!!

    • @charlotted6247
      @charlotted6247 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Absolutely. I'd be playing in the tree seeing all the magical ornaments. It would be like a nature hunt to see everything she made.

  • @bagpipes978
    @bagpipes978 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I am a major nature lover and all four of my grandparents were born and raised in Scotland. So of course I love the Scottish woodlood tree the most. Magnificent!!

  • @mariaphilomena1422
    @mariaphilomena1422 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I can’t make up my mind they’re both gorgeous. We had a White tree when I was little and I always love them there’s something very magical about the frozen lake tree you did. So pretty!

  • @joycegilley
    @joycegilley 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I prefer the Scottish Woodland tree, but the frozen lake had really beautiful sparkle to it and the blue ribbon was just a perfect touch for a pop of beautiful color!

  • @carrie3537
    @carrie3537 2 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    Hi Sherry. Both trees are absolutely beautiful! But, my favorite is the woodland tree. The mother and child ornament was a great find. So beautiful! I love how you use things in different ways, or in different areas of the house to give it a new life and look. Thank you for inspiring us.

    • @donna8212

  • @andreajohnson6659
    @andreajohnson6659 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love them both, but my favorite was the woodland! I love nature of any kind.

    • @CanterburyCottage
      @CanterburyCottage  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree! And, I feel like a woodland theme harks back to the early pioneering days of America (in other words, it reminds me of “Little House on the Prairie”)!

  • @gorgo1945
    @gorgo1945 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Yes, indeed the Scottish Woodland was my favourite but honestly all the wonderful ideas and beautiful creations are spectacular. You never disappoint - genius ideas!. I also appreciate your philosophy of not spending mindlessly on expensive decor but rather making our own unique decor with ideas rather than money. Truly inspirational. xx

  • @lindathompson9334

    @loiswood3363 2 ปีที่แล้ว +23

    Sherry, your trees are magical! I love your combined themes, Scottish and woodland together! You have such unique ideas for repurposing. It inspires me to look at objects in a new way - like coasters for ornaments! What a fun video, thank you so much for the inspiration!

    I absolutely love the ideas for reusing things we already have. I can't wait to dig mine out and get to work. Thank you for sharing and inspiring us to not only be frugal but to think outside the box!

  • @alicejump2290
    @alicejump2290 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So reminiscent of my grandmother’s trees, we got our trees from woods in Florida and they were kinda sparse but Christmas morning it was magical! Like Elfies and fairies decorated it! Covered heavily with tinsel, little decorated cones filled with small toys and candies (tussie mussies) like little baskets all such a delight to a small child! Blessed and safe days!

  • @angelicag2042
    @angelicag2042 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Sherry, both trees are marvellous but I’m drawn to nature so my favourite is the tartan woodland theme. Repurposing what we already have is great for both our finances and the environment. Can’t wait to see next week’s video! 🇨🇦❤️

  • @pamcadd8658
    @pamcadd8658 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sherry, I love the bowl with snow and bird! Snow is so pretty, but it tends to fly around, and the cat gets into it. Containing it in a pretty bowl is a great idea.

  • @brendasoler4759
    @brendasoler4759 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Your Scottish Woodland tree definitely gets my vote! I'm currently working on an Xmas Card wreath from one of your previous videos, and can't wait to finish it and get it hung! Thanks as always for such inspiring ideas!

  • @lisajohnson4298
    @lisajohnson4298 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Both trees are stunning but I’m definitely drawn to the Frozen Lake tree! It seems so ethereal and just radiates from within!! As always your videos just spark so much inspiration from your amazing creativity! 🥰

  • @lynnpelletier4321
    @lynnpelletier4321 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    The Scottish and Woodland trees remind me of the trees from my past.....the colors, the ribbon, the little creatures, so fun. About 9 years ago I started a new vibe in our home. Using the colors of shades of blues and golden colors. So all of your trees are favorites for different reasons.

  • @ksteversbcglobal
    @ksteversbcglobal 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Oh yay! Your tree decorating was one of my most favorites last year, this year isn't any different. 👍❤ And, oooh the ideas for repurposing. So many! Thank you so much!

    • @CanterburyCottage
      @CanterburyCottage  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you, Kimberly! I hope I shared an idea or two that you hadn’t thought of! Repurposing old wreaths and garlands is such a money saver, and my Goodwill gets so many donated wreaths that they sell them for under $3 most of the time!

  • @juliesigmund3836
    @juliesigmund3836 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love both trees but I think the Scottish woodland tree is my favorite.
    Every year, the kids and I make new ornaments for the tree. We recycle old ornaments and make new ones. Now I have two grandchildren to join in on the tradition.

  • @susangooden1055
    @susangooden1055 2 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    Love them both. And I never tire of ideas for repurposing and redesigning old ball ornaments.

    • @CanterburyCottage
      @CanterburyCottage  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you, Susan! Do you remember that lime mixture that I used on terracotta pots this fall? I was going to try that on some ball ornaments, too, but I thought I better move on to another idea! 😜

  • @corireeves32
    @corireeves32 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sherry! What lovely trees! Since I am in an apartment I have opted for a smaller tree and change themes as well. One thing I did after my father passed away was to take all of his bow ties, cut them into strips and make small Christmas tree ornaments out of them. Also I took a couple of his favorite ties and just hung them on the tree. For other non traditional things I also used my kids first baby shoes and the collars or tags from my special pets that are no longer here. (Either putting the tags in a larger plastic ornament or just hanging them with a ribbon. We even had raised a Canadian goose baby (and we were able to successfully let him go) but I collected several of his feathers and put them in a clear ornament as well. (I know kinda weird, but it was a nice way to remember him.). 😊. 😊

    @sprogohomeaway9602 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love both. Our 5yr Granddaughter would love the white frozen tree obviously. I love the Scottish woodland tree. Although I do tend to have themes on smaller trees, the main tree in our lounge as anything and everything on it going back 30yrs. Xxx

      Thank you, Annie! I am happy to share ideas from other creators! Sammie of Unicorn Dust Designs shared my channel with her viewers in one of her videos during my first year, so I have been on the receiving end. TH-cam is hard work (as you well know), so we’ve got to support each other when we can. I know that you are very generous in this way, too! 🥰

    I gravitate to the Woodland tree but the frozen lake brings tears to my eyes because my dad always wanted a blue and green Christmas tree but the ladies in the family were not convinced - he bought some none the less and now I own his original vintage 1960's shiny brite blue and green ornaments in his memory.

    I like both trees. I am one of those silly women that puts a tree in every room with a different theme on each. I just happen to love it that way. This year I'm doing a tree with teacups, cooky cutters and vintage flatware. Fun fun fun

  • @ChicagoDreamer5
    @ChicagoDreamer5 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love that white tree with blue ornaments!! (I'm not a winter person, and afraid of water, so frozen lake isn't the title I prefer to use.) You have more energy than anyone I know, and you're so exceptionally creative. Love your ideas. Thanks for sharing.

  • @debrap947
    @debrap947 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love the traditional Scottish tree since I am both of those! lol I still have a decoration that my sister made for me 42 years ago. She blew out an eggshell, cut the Garfield character from one of her Garfield cartoon books, and the words Merry Christmas. She used mod podge to attach them to the eggshell and mod podged it again and then sprinkled white sparkly snow on it. It has had a very special place on the top few branches of every Christmas tree since 1980.

    • @CanterburyCottage
      @CanterburyCottage  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I love this! I remember when blowing out eggs was a popular craft, but I have never tried it! I am amazed that your egg has not broken over the course of 42 years! I broke three ornaments just this week! 😜

  • @melodymcdonnell1528
    @melodymcdonnell1528 2 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @Dawn_Reane
    @Dawn_Reane 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love them both. I have done a white tree with the same color theme with blue, white and silver, however since I live in North Texas (outside Dallas city limits) it would get confused for a Dallas Cowboy tree which it was most certainly not. I would have to explain it was a winter wonderland tree. I haven't put up a tree in a few years due to circumstances however I decided that since my circumstances are different now I might try and get one up this year and oddly enough a few months ago when I thought about it I thought a woodland tree would be my new theme. It's just so ironic now seeing this video. I absolutely love the ornaments made out of wood slices. I have 25 acres with an over abundance of cedar trees and this summer we trimmed up some and we still have some of what was cut on the ground so I am definitely going to make ornaments similar to yours along with also adding back and white pictures of my grandchildren on them as well to personalize them.

    @texasstardust6010 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    .... What beautiful Trees, each in thier own way. It's a difficult choice, since I myself like to do the White tree, with certain colours ,depending on what I choose for the decor, it varies. I think the Scottish Woodland Tree looks so at home in the location you chose, it's a wow in the room ! And the ribbons, and the sparkle of the Frozen Lake Tree,... just so lovely.
    What a great Video, and timely enough to allow for making of ornaments, in case one chooses to do so. Thank you, Miss Sherry .... on a side note, the black blouse that you had on at the beginning of the Video looks absolutely great on you. . It is so pretty, and festive .
    Cheers and Blessings!

  • @rebekahbardsley5947
    @rebekahbardsley5947 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Sherry,
    My favorite is the Scottish woodland tree but , I myself have always wanted a silver and blue tree. I believe this will be the first time ever in my life I will not put up a tree. In October 2000 I left an abusive relationship and had to quickly get an apartment and because of a low salary I had to put 3 months rent down. That Christmas I literally made every single gift and I we t to a park and collected branches long wispy ones . I had gold spray paint on hand and sprayed them I stuck them into a nice clear vase packed with quilter's pollyfill I had on hand and on top of the pollyfill had mini pinecones. I hung light weight ornaments. I may do that this year too. In years past I lived with my mom and we had a live tree and even last year my first year without my .om, but still in her house, I had a certain pine my mom loved but, the name escapes me. The flat I am in now is 610 SQ FT and it's just so very tiny. I inherited all my mind furniture which are all large pieces and I am overwhelmed here just with everyday life. Most everything I own is in storage or are boxed up still in my living room.
    The framed painting of Mary and baby Jesus is called Mother Of The Streets. I use to work PT at a funeral home and they are one of our prayer cards. My mom had a large print of that in an oval gold frame.
    Years ago in Better Homes and Gardens they had in the Christmas issue large apothecary jars, large round wide bowls such as you have and trifle bowls with woodland decorations inside. My mom took a fancy with the trifle bowl one with a nest inside and Christmas tree branches around the best. I had rec'd a nice trifle bowl as an engagement gift (never married) and I never used it. I had a nest I found on hand and the bird had weaved they the sticks cigarette butt into the sticks. At a craft store called Total Crafts I bought faux pine springs and my mom loved the Gold Finch so I bought a mini one to hook onto the pine. I had a couple of pine cones in it too. I had always stayed with my mom Christmas Eve and she was always in bed early. While she was sleeping I tiptoed to the living room and put my arrangement on the one end. Christmas morning when she came out of her bedroom until the living room she saw it right away and she loved it. I have had it in my since I relocated but before Christmas I will put it in the living room. I think I will put it on the dining room table with a small string of lights around the base.
    I shall close. I have to get up at 5:30 and finish my kitchen cleaning for my apartment inspection tomorrow.
    I love all your creations!
    Fondly,
    Rebekah

    Both trees are beautiful. I like the Scottish woolands best because it reminds me of my childhood. Great ideas.

    Oh Cherie! I'm late to the party, but I wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed the video. The Scottish Tartan/Woodland tree is the one I like best. My favorite colors are red, followed by a muted green, and the woodland ornaments were the best. My late sister would have chosen Frozen Lake. In fact, I'm certain a tree inspired by yours would have been up so fast it would make your head spin! They are both beautiful. Your creativity is inspiring. Thank you so much. Sending love & prayers, 🕊🦁🐑💖🙏💖

    So beautiful -I love the woodland tree. In the 1980s we have a cat who scratch all of glass bulbs near the bottom of the tree so we redecorate the with fancy Christmas paper. Of course I made a few with Duran Duran and Rick Springfield pics ....lol I still have the teen idols ones.

    I love the frozen lake tree. I am partial to decorating with blue. They are both beautiful.

    You are every bit as talented, if not more, than Martha Stewart. Both trees are beautiful, but the Scottish Woodland is my favorite. Perhaps being part Scottish and growing up on a farm makes me come by it very honestly. Thank you for sharing your beautiful ideas with us! You are so talented and an incredible woman.
