Make sure you watch until the end.... my boys give us a private concert. How rich this life is!
Beautiful!
Gorgeous music!! I really enjoyed listening to their music and watching them play. 🙂💕
Whoa?! Stuart can really play! I sure needed this today. This world is getting me down. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful video.😊
I want to be a stay-at-home mom terribly. I’m so envious. Thank you so very much for this beautiful video.
Bravo! Well done.
“My hope is that though we can’t control the outside world, or anything that goes on out there, that the walls of our home would be filled with smells and tastes and colors and textures and creations and all that is good and true and beautiful. That our minds and lives would be quiet, that we would mind our own affairs and tend to our own home, and that we would work faithfully and quietly with our hands to produce, to create.“ Beautiful! 😭❤️ loved this video so much
Can we pleeeease get an album of folk music from Stuart and Jeremy 😍
That would be lovely
I would buy it ❤️
Creativity is the greatest pleasure you could give a child as a lesson in life on how to broaden their views. Looking at nature, takings twigs, stones, moss and making fairie houses for the little critters in the garden . My granddaughters loved that and they actually spent eight hours transfixed in creating theirs. Each week I watch my three grd kiddos and all they want to do is go up into my studio and play with clay, paint or cut and glue using old magazines. We’re making new bird houses now for the farm and they’re excited to see what bird will pick their creation come Feb and March.....we also are making nesting material bundles to set around the new houses. Creative play items is the only gifts I give at Christmas.....one grd daughter will be getting a weaving loom because at twelve she’s often bored and I hope this will give her a chance to make hats, purses and a kitty blanket for her pet....I think it’s great you’re showing others how being home can be such a great fostering of togetherness...thank you.
What a great way to take us into winter. Instead of hunkering down, your home is bursting with life.
Love the private concert. Love your shots at the end. Your whole video is beautifully created!
The music (concert) at the end was magnificent! The whole video was stunning. You are so original and genuine. Your lack of pretense is refreshing compared to getting dressed up, posing with your animals and making silly flower dresses. Thank you!
Are you referring to the Parisian farm girl?
Your photographs are gorgeous! And beautiful music by hubby, what a talented family! Being passed to the next generation!!
What a wonderful way to share the Scripture's practical guidance to living life. Great job!
Wow!! I loved this video so much.
"Let the favor of the Lord God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands upon us; yes, establish the work of our hands!" Psalm 90:17. Thank you, Shaye, for such a beautiful and timely reminder!
I love that you quoted the verse in 1 Thessalonians! It’s my favorite verse!
A beautiful & inspiring video!
Yes it is..
I don’t even know what to say. This was so beautiful, but somehow *beautiful* just doesn’t do it justice. I cried watching this. Your videos evoke a lot of emotions in me and isn’t that one of the main points of art? To make people FEEL something? You do that well.
🤗Oh, your coffee grinder🤗
I’ve home roasted my coffee for over 20 years and refuse my morning peace to be interrupted by an electric grinder. I just ordered a new hand crank grinder...
my old one simply wore out.
I have never seen one like yours, must be an antique you were thrilled to find.
I do not covet your’s...
yet completely appreciate and “get” how you must enjoy and treasure it.
Oh the beauty you have created...your home, your family and the absolute calm and peace in MY soul everytime I watch your videos. I think you are amazing. 💖 Sending my gratitude and love to you from Massachusetts!
This brought a smile to my face, and reminded me of growing up in my grandmothers 100 year old converted barn. She is an artist, and I always loved seeing the the paintings she’d create, while there’d be little splatters, and smudges of paint on her clothes. It was a beautiful way to grow up, and I want the same for my children. Thank you for this reminder, your videos are such an encouragement to get back to the simple, and timeless joys.
You and your family are so talented!! I'm glad to got to see that it was your husband that was playing your music for your vlog, the melody has always been so pretty and seeing that your family is the one playing the guitars makes it even better. I am still so amazed at your creativity and the grace you are able to project while giving us a snapshot of your lives. Your children are so adorable! I have so enjoyed watching them grow up! You give me craft ideas I can do with my grandchildren when they visit. Thank you for sharing your journey through life with us.
Amen
The whole Elliott clan hits it completely out of the park yet again; what a poignant & palpable expression of warmth
, creativity and art.... it’s beautiful and the concert was a delightful surprise. Thank you for sharing yourselves with us
This is one of the most inspiring and beautiful videos you've created. It really brought a lump into my throat. You've inspired me to get out of the slump I've been in since having my fourth baby and being sick with Covid and dealing with so much in the world today, and to start fostering creativity in my kids and myself again! Thank you for showcasing that lovely truthful scripture, also. ❤️
Agree...And much needed.
I think this was one of the prettiest ones you've made so far. The concert was wonderful. You've got so much talent in your family. Truly blessed.
Cooking over the fire- rustic farm food ♡ beautiful glance at your days and life. Love that creativity is on fire!
You and your husband are incredibly inspiring. You come across as the, “perfect,” family, but I think that’s because it’s what *I* see. By, “perfect,”I don’t mean without flaw; the opposite actually. I can see when you’re nervous, and a little harried in the kitchen. I can see your husband helping you with so many things. It’s a team effort and you do good things together.
You are people constantly striving to make yourself and your environment better. You are never done, and you keep a purpose. Even if you keep it up simply for the beauty of things.
I’ve been soaking up your content the last 24 hours, and boy, did I need it! Thank you so, so much!
I'm at my most peaceful when I am being creative, whether it's with my camera in hand, painting, weaving, sewing or even just decorating a space. My brain pauses and my body focuses on intentional movement. Beautiful, creative movement.
Since retiring, that verse has become even more essential to daily living. I'm am back where I started in this life and it is excellent. D.
I love everything about your videos! Even though I am 65 and in a different stage of life from you, you inspire me. I needed to hear what you said about being in the times we are, making time for being creative because that is the ting that really rests me.
Beautiful video. What a joy to hear you refer to "The Good, the True, and the Beautiful", the motto of the Classical Christian school where I teach classical art. Then to see your daughter paint from life - good job! You and your husband are building a life, not buying a life.
Shaye this is beautiful. I LOVE that you’re making time to be creative and hone your skills as an artist. And being straight up about the fact that we make time for what we love. Such a good reminder and encouragement. 💕
Shaye, Thank You So Much! One of my favorite videos you’ve created. There’s so much truth that lies within this video. Our home is my happy place with so many memories. I will be watching it again, I assure you. Oh! And thank you to the musicians for serenading us. I loved it. 😃
What a beautiful video to behold today......loved every aspect!!! Very uplifting!!! Thank you!!
This brought tears to my eyes. Absolutely incredible. 💚❤️💚
It's so refreshing to hear a woman and mother say "as much as I DON'T like crafting..." Ahhh. Me too sister.
So lovely ♡ I admire your new photography venture, Shaye. I was especially drawn to the peeled oranges, tea pot as well as the pomegranates. ♡
Can't believe I didn't mention that in my comment...oh her phtography was beautiful..in deed!!!!
This was so calm and soothing very beautiful🔥
That was SO restful and peaceful to watch. Beautiful photos too! Thank you!
I absolutely love how you develop your channel and what you focus on. You're just sharing your ways. It's lovely 🥰
wow. That was inspired! Praise the Lord for the creativity He gave you! Those still life photos are amazing! Thank you for sharing!
I loved the music! Shay, your photos are spectacular! Great job you guys.
The music!!!! Gorgeous hearing those guitars together 🥰
Love the guitars & that you're teaching the kids piano. For the kids I would highly recommend ukulele as well. It's small enough for little hands, fairly easy to learn, and it just plain sounds happy no matter what chord you play...a very fun little instrument.
So beautiful! The podcast this week was wonderful and goes so well with this video! And this hits on something deeper. Creating takes time and some sacrifice, but It’s a beautiful way to serve! We don’t create for ourselves or for the end result. We create to glorify our creator, calm our hearts for his service and bring joy to our fellow creature! Consuming is easy. Creating is noble.
"Within our homes we can create what is good and still and beautiful" Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️🙏
Hello all...Inspired we are ...This was so perfect for this time in our lives...We just adore your darling family...life style....and utube shares....we have one of your books..and have so enjoyed...Thanks all...from the bottoms of our hearts ....here in Rural Pa...God bless each and everyone..Ps wow the 🎸 music....awesome..Talent abounds!!!!
Oh just watching this over during the hottest time of the year for peace, hope, and inspiration. I will be moving soon and looking forward to starting a new chapter and using my creative to make a new home.
There is a warm glow coming from the side of a mountain in Wales UK after watching your wonderful talented family. Fab music and absolutely wonderful still life photography. Awesome. xx
Shaye, Thank you for the inspiration to cook over a fire; I hope you share more about prepping the cabbage wedges before putting over the fire. LOVE the scripture truth you shared, too; God’s wisdom is what we all need. Blessings, Julie 🌷
Your voice, face how you inspire and make the ordinary Beautiful. Your home is art. The music LOVELY.
Beautiful ♥️ true peace and happiness is only found in Christ and simplicity 🙏🏻♥️
It rests the soul - amen! Make your bed, walk, prepare food and share it. The world takes place for us in our homes. The noise is distracting, makes people anxious that we are in a place we cannot control - WE can step back and enjoy our simple lives. I watch things grow, cook, walk my dog with faithful friends. Share. This is actually what living in this world is - thank you xxx
Lol, your little girls orange looked like "Wilson" from the Tom Hanks film. Made me laugh. I needed that. I love your relaxing country videos. Reminds me of a younger me. I'm learning to crochet , and giving the child size blankets to the sheriff's office to give to kids they have to take away from parents, or who've been involved in bad accidents. Anything traumatic. Its healing for me, and I hope comforting to the littles who receive them. Its good and true. God bless you!
Your Private Concert was Absolutely Delightful! Thank You and Many Blessings to You and Your Family.
Thank you for this fabulous video and words of wisdom, focusing on what we can control and how. Excellent! The guitar playing reminds me of Pa Ingalls playing his fiddle for the family on cozy winter evenings. I love the still shots of farm life and food! So happy you shared some samples of your new new photography project and I am looking forward to seeing more. : )
The guitar duet was so beautiful and delightful, thank you for sharing. Your art at the end inspires. My eight year old was amazed at the photography that looked like a painting to her eyes. Lovely!
One of my favorite Bible verses and the one I latched on to as the motto for our little homestead. Beautiful photos!
What a beautiful video and memories made for you and your family! Enjoy this special Season! 💚
I am new to your channel and I just LOVE it!! You are so right about finding creativity inside our homes during this season of unrest....We just recently bought a home ( yes, during a pandemic!!) and discovered under top layers of grass, weeds, and poison Ivy, these lovely, 50 year old brick pathways in our backyard! There is also a beautiful brick wall. We are recreating the gardens that lived here all those years back. As you well know, it is a LOT of work, but so worth it!....I look forward to watching more from your wonderful Homestead!
Francis Mallmann’s cookbook is essential for having a good time cooking over a fire! I think you would love it!
This video is exquisite.
Thanks for the uplifting message in these trying times. Bravo to the talented musicians
Another wonderful video. Your stills were absolutely beautiful. I loved your guys music and watching you knit. Very well done. Thank you.
You are taking your channel to another level. Well done!
We have loved using Charlotte Mason's philosophy of education in our home too! Home is the heart of it all. Loved this quaint reminder of the simplicity and joy in creativity and handiwork. The guitar duet was amazing too!
So beautiful and soul soothing! The guitars are FABULOUS! The entire video just a gift. Thank you.
I cannot express how very much I LOVE this video!! This was "simply" the best! A feast for my eyes, and ears (love, love, love the acoustic guitar duet)! This fed my soul and got my creative juices flowing!! I am sure the coffee is helping though too, and it is nice and strong this morning! Thank you so much for sharing! ❤️❤️❤️
That was wonderful Shaye. And your photos turned out so beautiful. The detail in each picture is so prevalent. Gorgeous colors and items you chose in each. Your kids are just precious too. Such a creative and talented family you are. ❤️
What a beautiful reminder to soak up the life we have
You have a beautiful life and family. There is something so inspiring and calming about all your videos. I feel like I can conquer whatever task I set for myself after watching. Many good vibes being sent your way!
Your food photos are wonderfully rich and telling of the individual intimacy we all have with food.
This video is one of the most beautiful I’ve seen lately on youtube. A jewel 🤩
Shaye! Wow! I LOVED this so much! What you said, the lemon photograph (my heart smiled), Stu and his brother’s exceptional musical performance, your daughter painting..... ALL THE STUFF. Love 💕 Blessings beautiful mama. You certainly blessed me.
This was so calming. The noise around me is deafening but I can work on making my home a haven of quiet. Beautiful video, thank you!
Shaye this is my absolute fav video to date. So beautiful, cozy, merry, and true. Thank you!
Your photos have such a wonderful Dutch baroque feel. So beautiful.
Wow Shaye! This is beautiful! Thank you!
Shaye, those photos are stunning. Thank you for a peek into your cozy home. Please keep those videos coming.
Such a beautifully rich video Shaye. Thank you for inspiring. The music concert was spot on! Such a joy to listen to.
Winter esthetics! How wonderful!
I wish I could experience this! I am in love with the simplicity of true beauty. You are blessed.
Holy moly! I don’t know how you could possibly top that video!!!!! Wonderful! Beautiful!!!
Thank you for sharing your sweet little world with us. Always inspiring.
Lovely. The creativity and warmth of your home, with your family, is very nice. I love the your photographs...and love the music.
I've been watching your videos for some time now but this has to be my favorite! Producing beautiful things, whether it be melodies, tasty dishes, or art on paper...all with God's creation, Deo gratias!
Also, your photos are gorgeous!!
I'm learning a lot, focusing on faith, family, finances and wellness. I get a lot of inspiration from your videos and mostly your way of life. 💙💙💙
Lovely! Slowly creating Christmas, while taking down Fall decor, looking out on a frosty world.
Thank you….sitting here crocheting, recovering from Covid and watching this blessing of a video ❤️
SO CALMING! Your voice, vibe, words of wisdom, amazing photography at the end...all of it! Keep it up!!
Beautiful.. thank you for the scripture..I see you include God..thank you..He has plans for you.. beautiful..he loves us so much.. many blessings !
Absolutely fabulous! Loved the gentle pace of this video, the crafts and the music at the end! Your photography is actually stunning! 😍
Oh so beautiful! Thank you for always inspiring me in spreading a beautiful feast for my children. I CM educate, have a small farm and house in western WA, and dislike crafting. You're speaking to my heart!
Love the photography and the simplicity of the vlog so calming xxx
Beautiful! Thanks for inviting us into your home. Your voice is so relaxing to me. And love to see the creativity. Have a blessed day.
So much beauty! I loved this video very much. I needed to hear your words. Beautiful food, beautiful message, beautiful music, beautiful pictures (art). I can't get enough of it. Hugs and love ❤
Favorite video you’ve done. Nice use of scripture and the music and mood to inspire 🙌🏼
Watched again. We need this music & your beautiful heart and art. More please! Thanks!
What a wonderful moment ...loved everything! Stewart and his brother playing guitars- outstanding:)
Really enjoyed your video, we can tell there’s a lot of love and peace in your home and with me being a pastor it was great to hear you incorporate the scriptures in your video. May GODS BLESSINGS be upon you and your family continually. 🙏🏻👍🏻😇🙌🏻
I finally have cotton sheets. No more suffocating plastic microfiber sheets. Getting in bed is like wearing the most cozy pj’s!
Beautiful! I, too, am not big on busy work in our homeschool days, but I see how much my boys benefit and learn when we do more hands-on activities. Your photos turned out so nice, and Stuart and his brother... oh, my word! So talented!!
Your photography is amazing, it reminds of the painting from the Renaissance times. The colors and shadows are so suttle and there's like a new perspective everywhere you look. I dont know a lot about art but wow! And loved the concert at the end. I could literally play this video over and over to meditate too. You have such a calming voice and wonderful outlook on life.
Your pictures are beautiful, real works of art. Good for you guys. Yes, enjoyed the guys playing. Merry Christmas. Blessings!
Beautiful videography and editing as always. I look forward to each and every video, thank you for so much inspiration!
Perhaps my favorite episode yet. Thank you so much for the inspiration.
