The beribboned shells hanging from the chandelier are so unique. What an appropriate nod to any seafaring community.
That the Baileys were originally from Ohio is our common touchstone. Thank you for continuing to show us your lovely home and traditions.
Your kind comments gave us a connection even before the Ohio revelation. I thank you!
Since a wreck in 2012 I have struggled to do "house keeping" and so I enjoy watching people who do. I think your house is such a beautiful house. My great-great-grandfather was born in 1824, just 2 years before your house was built.
I actually think the house was started in 1924, according to the info we found when applying for the historic plaque. Thanks for watching and I’m glad you enjoy it.
Thank you for sharing your elegant, festive and very thoughtful holiday traditions. You’ve inspired me to give more thought to all I have to be thankful for, to seek the real and lasting beauty of those I love. Blessings for a joyful Thanksgiving.
Thank you and I wish you a joyful Thanksgiving as well!
I cannot tell you how grateful I am for your idea of an Advent calendar with personal love notes. My children and grandchildren will be so blessed by this, and I’m also grateful that I have a couple of months to work on it!
Thank you. My heart melted when I saw that my son had saved the post it notes! You are smart to get started early! ❤️
Your collection of Herend animals along with the white peacocks amongst the greenery is very charming. The chandelier with the hanging ribboned oysters adds an unexpected, meaningful touch honoring your grandfather. And I love the window wreaths! Thank you for sharing so many beautiful ideas for a festive dining room!
Thank you for watching!
Mary, thank you for inviting us into your lovely, beautifully decorated dining room! I very much enjoyed your commentary... as usual!
Hi Mary, I love architecture and this book was wonderful. However, the real treat was meeting you! What a pleasant surprise! As I have stated before your home is beautiful, and your sense of decorating is just elegant. Your table setting is so inviting I would not care what was for dinner! (LOL) I always look forward to the next book and listening to you. Happy Thanksgiving! Hugs :)
Linda, thank you for the kind comments. You are always thiughtful and encouraging! 💕
I also share the sentiments of some who commented that the review of AD100 was good but meeting you and seeing your gorgeous blending of Thanksgiving and Christmas was perfect. The color selections were very pleasing to the eye. The advent calendar with personal additions is such a meaningful gift. Thank you again for a splendid visit!
Thank you for your kind comments. We enjoyed the table and my son appreciated his Advent calendar. I always want him to know how much I love him, but when they reach a certain age, you have to get creative in communicating it.
ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS...
Thank You so much for Welcoming us all into your Lovely Home!!!
You've brought back Wonderful memories of my own, while sharing Yours...
🤗😚☺ Through the ages of our Southern family gatherings, we too had a "childs" table, full of the same silly antics of kids! We spent, what now seems like a lifetime, sharing each of our lives with one another...
The "children's" table, eventually became the "adult" table, as we all married and loved ones passed!
Again, Thank You so much for opening your Beautiful home to us...
Look forward to sharing your holiday ideas and memories throughout this festive season!
Thank you! It's fun to think about those past experiences. I can still remember the view I had from "the children's table". I could barely see my dad and my grandmother. They were my life, and although they are no longer here, I still have that same view of them with my heart!
@@thetartantopiary ABSOLUTELY...
I can still in Invision my parents and Aunt and Uncle at the "childs" table, wearing their tissue paper crowns, blowing their little horns acting VERY SILLY!!!
Beautiful Thanksgiving decor! Love your artistry in mixing your Herend animals into your display. Your mix of colors and textures is divine. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family🦃
Thank you so much! Happy Thanksgiving to you as well.
I am so happy to have seen you and been able to connect your voice and lovely pronunciation ( I am a teacher of English) with your elegant aspect. I like your good taste rooted in education, tradition and history. If I may ask, have I seen “oysters” hanging from your chandelier?🤓🌹
You are very sweet. Yes they are oysters and I hang them every Christmas in honor of my grandfather. My grandfather would often tell me a story during November and December which is oyster season here in North Carolina. It went something like this: he called it, The blessing of the oyster and the clam. Not only do they produce pearls so beautiful they adorn the crown jewels, but adult oysters and clams filter 2 1/2 gallons of water per hour improving our water quality. They also help build reefs, providing habitat for sea life guarding against erosion and protecting our fragile shoreline. And then he would add; just like you, they are a blessing and an original creation with a beautiful purpose. 💕
I so love the music in this video
Though I enjoyed the book review, your holiday home tour was the truly the feature. Beautifully done! I especially love all the figures on your dining table and that gorgeous wall paper! 💕
I found this video very touching. Your sharing of your home and ideas is truly beautiful. The connections to the past and continued traditions, gives such deep meaning and purpose to home presentation. Love your work very much. 🙂
Thank you for your thoughtful comment. I appreciate it very much!
Thanks so much for the history of the AD 100! I love viewing what "the best of the best" has to offer, and I did not know that one of my longtime favorite interior design magazines: Architectural Digest, began in 1920, and in California! I first discovered the magazine at the Air Force base exchange when I was in my early 20's as a young bride in a foreign country! It was a discovery I have treasured for many many years!
And thank you for sharing from your heart and your own personal home, your Thanksgiving decor! I recall the memory of the "children's table" at Christmas---but I was never much of a child even as a child, and preferred sitting with my Mom, my grandmother and aunt at the grownups table---after the men finally made their departure! It was special to me to be dressed up and at the "GROWN UPS' table", to "bond" with the women. Thank you for sparking that memory---I haven't thought about it in many years!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING---to you and yours!
It's fun to think back on our past experiences! I appreciate you sharing this and yes, the book is fabulous! (Buy it used at a discount)
I have this book and love every page. Your dining room turned out beautiful. Thank you or the wonderful post it idea. I am going to use it this year for sons calendars.
This book is a must have and the fun thing about the post it notes is that it makes the giver and the recipient happy. It's like sharing a happy secret.
I LOVE how you combine both Holidays for Thanksgiving....Beautifully Done....✌️💜💋
Thank you, Robbin!
You have a beautiful home and set a lovely table. Enjoyed!
Thank you, I appreciate that.

Thank you Mary…as wonderful it is to take a few relaxing moments enjoying your review it’s nice to see your decor translations.
Thank you!
This is my favorite show and your home is just beautiful. We like the dining table setting with all the Herend little animals. Thank you for giving us these ideas!
You made my day, Henri! Thank you.
You made me cry with the notes for your son.
It does warm my heart to do these notes!
Loving your inspiration
Great review. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Lovely.. thank you!
Thank you too!
So lovely.
Hi Mary thank you for introducing yourself to us 🙏. The AD book is like you stated a true reference book. I must admit I shed a tear (I honestly did) when I saw the beauty and especially the thought that you put behind every aspect of your decor & traditions. Everything you execute has a story which is why your home is so inviting. Une maison remplie de lumière ✨✨✨!! Merci.
What a kind thing to say, thank you. I truly appreciate that!
Hello Mary! It's very nice to meet you! I love your house. Someday, you're going to have to show us your library. I know you must have one. Your foyer and dining room are gorgeous! Thank you for all you share with us!
Thanks for watching! I do have a small library, but a lot of books!
I just started making my orange pomanders last night. I find if I put more cloves and dust them with orris root cinnamon and ginger they will last forever. Thanks for the wonderful video
I love that tradition! Thank you for watching!
Hello Mary, I have recently discovered your beautiful channel.. I am transported into the past by your content.. showcasing the beautiful books on ‘stately homes’ - architectural/design and then further, you provide a loving recipe or sweet tutorial. I feel warmed and welcome as I watch and listen to you narrate… your gentle voice sets the mood. Thank you for the tour.. a world of timeless beauty & design.
Beautiful!
💗🌷🌸
What a thoughtful and encouraging comment. I really appreciate it!
Thank you for sharing your beautifully decorated Fall/Thanksgiving table, so lovely. Enjoyed the music as well.
Thank you so much!
IT IS VERY SAD THAT AD IS NO LONGER WHAT THE MAGAZINE ONCE WAS! I HAVE SUBSCRIBED TO AD FOR MANY YEARS AND NOW THE MAGAZINES ARE JUST A THIN EXAMPLE OF IT'S FORMER SELF!
Could not have said it better myself. Somehow, I find that it may have underlying political issues. So sad
what is the musical score in the background? it's heavenly.....
"The Moment" by Robert Miller
Well, hello Mary. A pleasure to finally be formally introduced. LOL.
Yes, I thought it was time!
A smile came when I saw the oranges with cloves. I still do them as well, it is a southern thing for me and touches memories. This is an amazing book, it shows how things just keep coming round with an added twist. I look forward to the next surprise you share. Thank you so much.
Thank you- I remember adding cloves to oranges as a child. We put so many in them, that by the time we were through, I couldn't feel the tips of my fingers!
Wonderful as always…I love the idea of the calendar and the notes were so sweet. I look forward to your reviews. They make me happy.
That is a very nice thing to read. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know that!
Lovely as always. What's hanging from your chandelier? Are those oyster shells?
Yes, I do this in honor of my grandfather every Christmas. During November and December, which is oyster season in North Carolina, My grandfather would always tell me the story about the blessing of the oysters and clams. It went something like this; Not only do they produce pearls so beautiful they adorn the Crown jewels, but adult oysters and clams filter 2 1/2 gallons of water per hour, improving our water quality. They also help build reefs; providing habitat for Sea life, guarding against erosion and protecting our fragile shoreline. And he would also add,” just like you, they are a blessing, and an original creation with a beautiful purpose”!
@@thetartantopiary Interesting and beautiful tradition. I love oysters, and pearls of course.
What a wonderful video! The beautiful music was so moving!!! I hope that I can find AD at 100 in a used bookstore! Your dinning room was lovely too!!! Thank you for blessing us all with your channel! I agree that Williamsburg at Christmas is magical, my family went in 2014.💕🌹💕
Your parrot candle holders are amazing!!!
I am fond of them also. I went to Miami and Palm Beach several years ago and they flew back home with me! 😁
Hello from the Philippines! Your house is so beautiful and especially your dining room with such impeccable table setting perfect not just for thanksgiving but even for Christmas. Recently stumbled upon your channel and I absolutely love your contents. Your book reviews are excellent. Your decorating style is classic, and yes, very classy, my kind of style indeed. I also love your advent calendar and it’s special that you make it very personal.
Once again a feast for the eyes and food for the soul and your voice is relaxing to the ears. Thank you friend for a beautiful review…..once again🫶🏼
Mary,
Thank you for sharing your wonderful Thanksgiving memories, decorations in your lovely home, and thoughtful plans for the holidays. I bought Advent calendars for my grandchildren, and now I will follow your sticky note suggestion. This will be my first Thanksgiving celebration with them in more than 10 Years.
Blessings to you and your family.
Wow- I know you will enjoy the time with them. I wish you happiness and love. Also- it can get difficult writing 24 things at once, especially if you're doing several, so I do them a little at a time. It's easy once you start thinking with your heart! 💗
Good evening Mary. Once again thank you for your book of house tours from A.D. I absolutely love your decorations incorporating thanksgiving with Christmas decorations it really inspires me. I look forward to your next vlog once again thank you so much. Enjoy the rest of your evening.
I appreciate your comments, thank you!
I have this book in my personal library, it is a fantastic resource and its lovely on top of that. BTW: You have a lovely home. I love this channel, you have the perfect voice for this and your fantastic presentation skills are warm and wonderful. Thanks Mary, in my imagination you are the perfect host.
You have officially made my day. Thank you for such a thoughtful comment. 💗
Absolutely STUNNING -your dining room is the most stylish and welcoming room, anyone would feel so fortunate to be there.
That is a lovely comment to read. Thank you
What time is dinner???? I would love to be at your home ! I has a quality of PURE LOVE! Thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching!
Love the book…your home is lovely. The music was beautiful! I can’t find it, is there an album name or any other information? Thank you.
The only info I have is in the video description. It’s from the iMovie selections, so there is no copyright issue.
Thanks for the review, even though the price is insane. Nice to see you once. I always admire the wallpaper in your dining room. Your table decoration is very inviting.You master that the beauty is in the details. I know the idea of the children's table from my childhood. My father didn't like it that much, he wanted to have all the children around him. However, we children were allowed to leave the table earlier. I think so too. Have a good time with your loved ones.
Thank you, I appreciate that! I had the same thought about the price of this book. I purchased it used. If you ever really want one and the price is a concern, there are several really good used book websites and even Amazon offers used copies.
@@thetartantopiary Thank you dear Maria for the tip. I bought all the books I wanted from your review used on ebay. The price of the AD anniversary volume is so crazy for me because I've been reading the magazine for years and most of the pictures and designers, if not already published on youtube, are/were known to me from the magazine. I occasionally write for a newspaper. The editors did not have to invest heavily in the photos, and could certainly go back on their photo archive for the many, albeit successful, examples.
love your voice and love your sharings. thanks for this one!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for sharing.
What a beautiful idea that advent calendar with post-its. Is it okay I steal that idea for my daughter?😉
Please do! It makes me happy to do this. One year, I was so mad at my son (a BIG school homework issue) and when I was finished writing the post-its, I had completely forgiven him.
@@thetartantopiary 😂
Classic and Beautiful! Love your Advent Calendar idea. Thank you, Mary!
Thanks for watching!
There are a few photos here that are absolutely amazing and timeless. Those are the truly great designers!
Albert Hadley, Sister Parish, Dorothy Draper, Elsie de Wolfe, Billy Baldwin and so many more! This was a great book!
Beautiful dining room 😊
Thank you!
🧡
Love the book but love your home more. So beautiful and decorated so well. Enjoy the family time for sure.
Thank you, Grigsby!
Me too, found myself smiling in anticipation of the personal invitation to your home and preparations. Still smiling, just thinking of all the care and thoughtfulness you put into your home and family. They are blessed by you. And no doubt the joy you give comes back to bless you too. Thank you so much.
Joy- what a kind comment, thank you!
AD has become disappointing of late.
