⭐ Excited about the new craft I'm showing you in the video - cute yarn beanie hats - woo hoo! Definitely feeling a little frazzled today but it's all going to plan and I've just had a wonderful skinnydip in the sea with my Danish Besties in the dark (it is dark by 3.30pm here now) What is YOUR self-care today?! 👏🏼😍🏊🏼 I may be making more beanie hats tonight, ha ha!
Hi Diane! Those little beanies are adorable! Tweetie and Sparky 🥰 Your Christmas tree looks great! I still have Christmas ornaments from when I was a kid (I am your age). My self care has been reading a book my daughter got me for my birthday! I hope you have a great rest of your day!
Those extra cables and electrical cords will leave my house in the new year! Enjoying Christmas activities now, feeling smug and relaxed thanks to your advice to preplan so far ahead.
Sending my last Christmas gifts and hoping they’ll arrive in time, I’ll reward myself with a bath (and maybe some Lindt dark chocolate) in the evening, when it’s dark outside, maybe at 4.30 p.m.
I have been sorting through 1000s of photos since my mum passed away. I'm giving old ones out to family and friends with their Christmas cards. They are loving the memories and I am decluttering and sorting!
Those little hats are adorable!! I am going to find instructions on making them. I love the idea of giving them with a piece of chocolate. They look cute on your tree, too. Your tree is beautiful and I love that you brought home some family ornaments from your mum's house. I have some from my childhood and it is a true joy to see them each year.
It's been so nice this Christmas not feeling overwhelmed all the time. My house is ready for unexpected guests or to hold impromptu game nights and parties. Thanks for your encouragement!
Thanks for sharing all of your vintage ornaments. I really enjoyed seeing them. I have some of my moms on my tree also. It is the memories that make the magic of Christmas.
Love a Christmas tree full of memories! I have a beaded angel made by my great aunt many, many years ago, not beautiful but always in a place of honor.
I spent a lovely evening with my daughter decorating our Xmas tree and talking about the memories from our decorations especially the ones the girls made. My angel was made by my friend in Canada when I first bought my own home and we still use it. Love the pom-pom hats and I’m going to make some this weekend so thank you for the idea.
My Danish friend is coming soon and I’ve cleaned the guest room and made the bed ready. His adult son asked if he could send things to me and his first packet arrived today. He said it was cheaper posted to me rather than to Denmark so my friend will take it back to Denmark for him in the new year. I don’t often have a tree but will cut some twigs and put a few baubles on them next week. Have a lovely Xmas and New Year x
Merry Christmas to You & your family! Thank you for cheering and encouraging us on! We are empty nesters and the kids are coming- finally off work so I can push thru to pre & enjoy Christmas!
Thank you so much Diane for making my Christmas brighter! I've followed your advice and I'm ready for December 25th. No last minute panic. I'm enjoying the season so much more. Thank you for all your advice - you are a treasure.
Thank you for doing this countdown to Christmas. It has been very fun seeing you. The old tree decorations are so neat to see. Love the ornament representing you Mum. Also love the little hats. So clever. Cheers
OMG Diane ... the Lindt dark chocolate ... yes! I was gifted some a few years back and have loved them ever since. They are divine. Sending you and yours every best wish for Christmas and the New Year. From Darlene in NZ
I just finished wrapping the final gift and then I went through all my gift wrapping supplies and bags and decluttered all the things I haven’t used in the last few years.
I love your little tree❣️ I have an ornament that I made in Kindergarten plus ornaments made by my children & grandchildren. They are very special to me ❤️❤️
Ooh, a gift? Looking forward to seeing what that is! 🎁 🤔 My "tree" is fresh - just some evergreen branches in a vase. Lovely scent! 🎄 Glad to see you have a fellow Gryffindor in the family (scarf) 🧣 Have a fantastic visit with your kids (and Kiko, I presume)! 🐾 😽 ✨
Merry Christmas Diane 🎄 🎉 ☃️ 🥂 and thanks for all you do. Lindt dark chocolate is a favourite so I have bought myself some for my pamper basket already.
A sweet tree full of treasured items and the fun ones too really makes the season! How delightful your brother visited and the kids are heading home! Have a lovely holiday,🥰
Hi, Diane, legendary: Lindt dark chocolate… the cute hats are the nicest package for them. I’m way behind everything now, because a dear family member became sick severely and is in the hospital over Christmas. But I do my best with lists. Love, Monika❣
You cracked me up with the "weird bald angel"description, Diane! 😄 It's so neat to hear the stories behind some of your ornaments. We have some vintage ones like that, too; a very similar reindeer in particular. Thanks for continuing to help us stay sane and cheerful through this last crazy week! 💙
By doing a little each day while I was getting over my cold, we're all decorated and, with a daily pupa, in good shape for any company who might stop by. My decluttering over the next 2 weeks is going to be a couple of shelves in our storage closet. That will make putting away the decorations easier when it's time to do that🎄 👍🙂
Great little video of inspiration to get thought these last few days before Christmas. Love your memories of childhood Christmas tree ornaments. I’m making my grocery list of last minute items to get before the holidays ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉 can’t wait for the new challenges. Merry Christmas 🎄
Thanks for all your inspiration this year, Diane. I hope you, your family and wonderful friends have a wonderful Christmas 🎄🥂💓. I’m looking forward to the New Year I have a few tasks that I’m want to do including looking at my zones and making them simpler.
I "LOVE" your jumper! And the decorations from childhood remind me of those I kept after my mother died. Treated myself to a candy cane white hot chocolate (with whipped cream!) while I was on a mission to find a wee something to boost the spirits of a friend in need.
Beautiful that you have your mother represented on your tree she can be celebrate in heaven while you celebrate here and honor her with your love. Cheers to your mom Merry Heavenly Christmas to her. Happy memories and pleasant thoughts this season. 💝💖💝
It's always a pleasure to watch your videos Diane. I don't declutter as often as I'd like but seeing you and hearing you consistently do it yourself, helps keep me moving forward. I do have items in my storage that belong to others which I'd like to offload at some point. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Ornaments like your bald fairy are the BEST! My favorite is a balled up piece of foil with things glued to it - the kids look for it every year😂Merry Christmas!
I love the funny decorations your brother brought from your mums. They are unusual charming and unique. I love the mix you have on your tree. Makes it so personal ☺️ Our tree is the same although a lot more tinsel and chaos. My kids decorated the tree and I love it that way ♥️
Thank you Diane. I loved the Princess Leia bauble. That bald angel really reminded me of a wee dolly we used to have. 😂 Always good to see you. Best wishes, Anne
I've recently gone through my parents' old ornaments and Christmas decorations. I kept a few, and the rest was pretty worn out, so I recycled those. Lots of good memories from my childhood 🌲🎁❤️
How funny - we will be decluttering our artificial Christmas tree as we move back to the UK after 35 years. It looks identical to yours Diane - although ours is a bit balder through use!!
Merry Christmas to you, Diane! Wishing you and your family a lovely holiday. I love all your ornaments, especially the new Hendrick's gin one (my favorite gin) and the special ones from your childhood.
I love your home Diana, the beautiful antique furniture and those lovely dinner plates especially. My tree is fake but the decorations on it all have some memory attached, the oldest being older than me I think. Happy Christmas to you.
Everything is planned and organized or already finished. As there is so less to do til christmas I always think I have something forgotten 😂 Must sit down tomorrow and rethink everything. But I guess I am done with christmas preparation❤ A few short tasks on the list that need to bern done right before christmas. Very relaxed this year, but hosting 8 guests on christmas 😅 thank you Diane for your inspiration. Did my selfcare manicure today 🎉❤
Loving your weird, bald faury! I have my tree up with an angel topper, red velvet ribbon garland andc3 ornamebrscwith my grandkids photos!😂 I decided not to get my ornaments out, and it's very nice to look at my simplified tree. Thank you for your video, especially the fairy. ❤😂
Just spent 25 minutes shovelling snow. We’re supposed to get about 10 to 15 cm today with -18 degree C temperatures (-27 C with the windchill). 🌨️🌬️🥶 Might be a good day to bake some cookies since I haven’t done any of that yet this month. 🇨🇦

What a lovely win-win!
What a wonderful idea!
Lovely idea!!!
Thankyou for the idea 💡 light bulb moment
Vintage ornaments are so precious as they hold so many special memories.
I love the special retro ornaments…way more personality than what is available commercially today
I love the personal retro Christmas ornaments. It makes the tree much more interesting than one with only new matching ornaments. Merry Christmas!
Your little ornaments you made with your daughter are adorable. ❤
Happy Christmas Diane - thank you for your content keeping us all accountable with our Hygge and Flylady tasks! All the best for 2025! 🎊

Thanks for your uplifting messages; you’re the best. Merry Christmas 🎄
Thanks for keeping us ontrack for a peaceful holiday. Hope your Christmas is lovely 😍
Thank you for your video and helping us through these busy days of Christmas. 🎄
🎄 I donated our artificial tree this year as well. 😊
Me too on the smooth Lindor chocolates! I savor one when I draw myself a candlelit bath. I never liked the other crunchy ones either. 😛
A sweet tree full of treasured items and the fun ones too really makes the season! How delightful your brother visited and the kids are heading home! Have a lovely holiday,🥰
Thanks so much, Judy!
Merry Christmas Diane! Merry Christmas to everyone! I will see you on the other side.
