      A black door will look nice but with white accent trims. But either way it will come out nice 😊

      Hi Lauren! You probably already know Poinsettias are deadly for cats if they eat them. I know you have the plants outside and I remembered your cats go outside as well. I just wanted to share that with you just incase. Have a healthy and Merry Christmas!

    I feel like when people get sponsorships their channels turn into consumerism time…”look at all the stuff I have to decorate with” I don’t think it happens consciously, but I see it on so so many YT channels.
    I also think there’s a layer there of, the need for us women to “out-do” the last year. Up the ante for more viewers..
    Not hating at all. Love this channel, just don’t lose that feeling of cherishing what you had all those years, that’s what brought people to you!

    Taking the darkest color from those rocks would be my idea. If you have the color of the paint that is on the house you can always go up the color wheel to the darker tones. Although I don't mind the color that it is. The front turned out SO cute! I love all the red berries mixed into the green. I think my favorite is the three wreaths and the garland and swag greenery w/berries down the sides. It looks like Chewy was so excited to see it all and be a part of the decorating festivities that he even left his cozy blanket.

    You are so talented! I wish my husband would help me with decorating. He does nothing. I used to put lights in all my tree's in my yard. 8 tree's and 6 bushes in front of house.

    A lot of Tuscan style homes have beautiful wooden doors, usually in a darker chestnut with windows and some scrollwork. With white trim, dark brown might be better than black. Your decorating is so lovely. 🎅🎄

    • @ashleys4652
      @ashleys4652 Рік тому +3

      Even though the style of the home is Tuscan she said she wants to bring in a modern farmhouse vibe with the traditional black and white. House will be white, door and window trim black. It will look amazing.

    @leannehockman6010 Рік тому +3

    I like the idea of black trim and door. Tired of the white and black, everyone is doing it. I think a dark taupe would look awesome with the stonework and black trim. Very classy. Love your Playlist too !

  • @christine4life-love785
    @christine4life-love785 Рік тому +3

    Chestnut brown or a dark shade of brown due to the tuscan style of your home. I feel black would be too harsh.
    Awesome decorations!

    Hi Lauren!! I just painted my red door black. I don't regret it. I used "Limousine Leather" from Home Depot. It has incredible coverage. Yes, I'm decorating the outside of my home. My husband purchased me two 6-foot nutcrackers and they are the stars of the show. You are amazing girl. Your yard and entryway look awesome!

    I know I do not comment on all of your videos, but I would like to think when I do it will motivate, encourage and make a great impact in your life! Your home looks as if it has been decorated by a group of professional designers. The feel that it exudes, and looks as though you should be selling tickets for all of us to take a tour of a very upscale entity. The back yard has the feel of a white fur coat wrapped around those who enter to make them comfortable with a blanket of warmth. Girlfriend, you got it going on and on. You want to know something, I am ready to take the tour with a snack in hand. Keep it going! Be blessed always, Ms. Mary

    I LOVE your decorating videos! I am wheelchair bound so cannot decorate for myself - which I miss very much. When I was able, my house was as elegant as any magazine, because I loved coming home from the office to a beautiful setting. Since I've been confined to a wheelchair, my daughter lives with me and provides care. Unfortunately, while she is wonderful, she doesn't care for Christmas since my husband died, so there are no reminders of the holidays in my home. Your videos delight me and for a little while I can go back through the years and imagine my lovely home at Christmas. Thank you!

    Been LOVING your YT Christmas music playlist! I’ve clicked on the video at least 5 times so far! I just let the music play on my phone while I’m decorating, cleaning, or just relaxing. I’ve been watching this genre of UA-cam for over 7 years now, and the same YT Christmas songs constantly get played over and over again. And TBH, after several years now, they have really grown on me! They have become a part of my Christmas traditions over the years.. I love some of those songs just as much as the old Christmas classics that I’ve been listening to since I was a young child!
    I would highly recommend going to listen to Lauren’s You Tube Christmas song playlist (it’s a video on her channel)🎄✨♥️

    So festive and beautiful! For door and trim colors I would look at the stonework and pick the darkest color from it and repeat on the house, that way everything will be cohesive. I would say white and black would look fabulous, but your home is a very specific style and I feel it would look too harsh. Merry Christmas!

  • @sarah.fb.lindsay

    If it was me and money was no issue; I’d do White House, black trim and shutters, lime wash of the stone and a new front door package with glass in a more natural deep oak or chestnut color.

    Painting the exterior of your house white with black trims and doors will give your house a fresh new look. We did that to one of our rentals and it really brightened up the house. We are now thinking of doing the same to the house we live in right now. So I say do it if it’s what your heart desires. You most likely won’t regret it. 😁

  • @jeweleehopper53
    @jeweleehopper53 Рік тому +1

    Hi Lauren, I know you were asking about the painting of the door and did not like the neutral color. I was wondering instead of black because I am not sure if the stone you have on the front has any black in it or it’s gray that I’m looking at maybe a darker, gray or charcoal gray to look like it blends in with the brick, but it gives it more depth. Hopefully that helps. I love the front porch decorations.
