Absolutely just simply perfect drinks area. I'm tempted to try it on my dresser, which has a beautiful oval mirror on it's top section & small cupboards either side with leaded glass fronts. I'm excited. Happy Christmas ❤
You are truly growing into a person who exudes confidence and acceptance of who you are. Bravo for sharing a small piece of your personal life. The sideboard looks like it always had a marble top, just magnificent. As you stated, how important it is to do loving things for us as individuals. You can’t love others until you love yourself. ❤️❤️❤️
Setting up your tree was a great decision! Whether your loved ones are near or far, you owe it to yourself to bring yourself joy each day, especially during the holiday season!! The color choices blend beautifully.
Nicolas you sharing your relationship with us was so sweet. I think one reason I enjoy your content is your honesty , your love of simplicity and how you romance the everyday. So agree when you said you can and should do the tree or whatever decorating for your own enjoyment. Your tree is beautiful as is the sideboard marbling! Looks very elegant!
You bring so much beauty and joy to all your followers! With so much pain and suffering in the world this video lifted so many of us. I was thrilled you shared with us you that you are embarking on a special relationship. Fingers crossed!
So happy you met someone! I haven’t put up a tree in two years after going through a divorce, but you have inspired me too put it up this year! Thanks for sharing with us Nicolas!
I totally relate! Split 4 years ago. I put my tree up last year and this year and FINALLY put my halloween decorations up this year - one of my favorite holidays! took me 4 years for that one. Hugs!
My favourite episode to date. Your marbling and tree are a great success. So glad you have found someone special to appreciate all your creativity. Wishing you a wonderful and happy Christmas. 🙋🏼♀️🇨🇭🎄✨
Hi Nicolas. Thank you for giving us a tour of the Prestonfield House, it's so beautiful and traditionally opulent in every room. And thank you for sharing all the new things you're up to... your skin looks amazing!
This was a really pleasant way to spend a cold Sunday afternoon - watching you put up your tree and visiting a beautiful countryside home! Thank you so much for sharing.
I’m so happy you put up your tree! And I’m so very happy for you that you met someone special Nicolas, you deserve it! Your faux marble top turned out really pretty! ❤
I will be forever grateful for YT recommending your channel to me, as you add so much beauty to our lives. You have the ability to make masterpieces out of things...wow. Thanks so much for all you do. Those who are your friends are fortunate indeed!
Your tree is lovely. I am glad you put it up because we can see that it brings you joy. Congratulations on your relationship. You deserve a great person in your life.
My husband was a Master Gardner and was complaining about how dry his face was. I tried to help him with various creams but nothing seemed to really work. Thank you for bringing this to light! Men do need this as well as women!
I am very happy for you you have found someone special to share your life. Your tour of Prestonfield House was amazing. The decorations are so beautiful.🎉Your Christmas tree looks stunning. So elegant.Thank you for the video. It makes my day and week. ❤❤❤
You're so right, Nicolas - being alone as we prep for the holidays can still be wonderful. Just enjoy whatever you have and what you're doing. Your place is beautiful as always! I love the brightness of the faux marble top for the sideboard. It really seems to light up the Cotswold painting. Perfect!
I love that you decided to put up your beautiful tree for your own enjoyment! Your special someone will be able to enjoy it with you when he comes back! Decorating Christmas trees can be a bit of work but they pay off substantially by looking glorious, inspiring the Christmas spirit and creating a sparklingly gorgeous atmosphere, that I think it is so worth it! 🤩🥰🤩 I hope you show us putting up your garland as well as sorting and organizing your lovely, new marbled sideboard! Finding clever ways to line the drawers to be functional, protecting the glassware from rolling about into each other, as well as being aesthetically pleasing could be very beneficial for many! Looking forward to your next festive video! 💗🎄💗
This is hands down one of my favorite videos you've done. It just had everything I love to watch in your videos, all rolled into one... including goofy Nicolas, which we don't get to see too often 🙃. Tree is beautiful! 😁
Your tree is beautiful, Nicolas. Adding the ribbon was a very nice touch. You did a great job on the marble top. Happy you have someone to share your life with.❤
Hi Nicolas, Prestonfield House is a dream. Thank you! I have often wondered if you require permission from the management when you tour these magnificent buildings for us to enjoy? On a personal note, I'm happy for you. The tree looks lovely and that sideboard! OMG, what a transformation that adds some pop to a vintage piece. Have a marvelous holiday season!
So happy that you’ve found someone special, Nicholas. ❤ That’s what makes the world go round. Love. Your sideboard looks fabulous as does your tree. It really harmonizes with the space. I love that little Sophie watches your every move. She’s supervising!
I never comment, Nicolas, but this is my absolute favourite video of yours so far, and that's saying something! Every single moment of watching this one has brought me so much joy. I'm so thrilled for you that you've found someone. Your living room is really looking stunning with that joyful Christmas tree and that divine sideboard and painting above. Perfection!
Hi Nicholas, your tree looks beautiful love the colors there perfect, and what a blessing to have a special person in your life now, many happy memories for you two to make, have a wonderful blessed day, 🙏🏻😇🎄❄️🕊️
Nicolas, thank you for this great video. You really put me in the Christmas spirit. The tour of the hotel was fantastic; what a beautifully decorated hotel. I admire you for being respectful by not intruding on other people's privacy during the tour. You did a fantastic job on decorating your tree and painting the faux marble finish for the table top. It really does look like marble. You always encourage others to take a risk and you succeeded. Sharing your personal story about a new relationship is a testimony to your open and genuine personality. I sense that you have found love and happiness. Looking forward to seeing the evolution of your ideas for Christmas. Robert.
You bring so many awesome videos to us. The entrance to this hotel is spectacular........what a thrill to see it in person. Happiest holiday season ever.
New USA subscriber. What a sweet man you are!! Your cute little fur baby is so precious. My son has not found his soul mate yet but maybe some time he will in the future. He has dated a few boys, but not the one. So glad you have found someone. Your tree is decorated so beautifully!! Enjoy yourself with your family for Christmas.
Nicolas I am so happy for you meeting someone to share your lovely life with ❤️🌹 glad you put the tree up 🎄😁 Prestonfield was fabulous great press for afternoon tea ☕ 😘
So beautiful! I really enjoy when you take us on your lovely tours of Scotland. Such a beautiful country with so many beautiful places to see. Since I never been there, this is such a wonderful way to see some of those lovely places you take us too. ❤
I don’t know how you manage to make your videos better and better each time, but you do. Congrats on that marble top, it looks lovely, and so glad you have a special someone 🤗
I enjoyed this video very much. Thanks for sharing your budding relationship with us. The Tree looks exquisite The "marble" top is an elegant enhancement of the mahogany sideboard. Two thumbs up!👍👍
Congratulations on your special relationship, I’ve had a feeling for awhile now that you had found a special someone…. I could see it in your face…. The bar turned out beautiful and the tree looks very elegant…. Alls coming together… love and best wishes.. see you next week❤️🇺🇸🥰😘
The sideboard looks fabulous, I am thinking that the Cotswold painting balances out the room in regards to the other painting. Absolutely loved everything about this video Nicolas. Well done.
You have outdone yourself Nicholas. The tree is gorgeous with the new colour combinations and decorations. And your bar area is perfect especially with the painting over top of it. Congrats on your new relationship.
So happy for you Nicolas, nothing better than having someone special in your life to share things with. The faux marble top looks so nice, you can’t even tell that you painted it on. I absolutely love it. And lastly your tree is beautiful. The colors are very calming. 😊🇨🇦🎄
Darling, you look stunning no matter what you wear. And the marble job looks amazing. We love our fake xmas tree too, it's a beauty. The last time we had a real tree, I was sweeping up needles in our apartment for an entire YEAR. Thank you for this video. Sending hugs from Toronto Canada
Nicolas my favorite videos are the decoration of your tree and wreaths...remember your never along...you have your audience waiting for your videos.. marble top is great idea ...simple but with a beautiful elegance.. Thank you, for your time...Blessings for you..
I start my Xmas tree with small white lights as you did. I have been collecting tree decorations since I was 20 and now, being over 65, can decorate the tree as I always wanted to. Almost all of the decorations are crystal. Some have a touch of gold. Like a crystal angel with a gold halo. I have three that have some colour in honour of three of my cats who have passed. Everyone who has seen my Xmas trees loved them and commented that they were surprised that the trees were so beautiful without coloured decorations. I love the white lights and crystal. And I am lucky that the cat I now have never touches any of the decorations. She just sits on the window sill behind the tree and watches all of the lights and crystal twinkling.
You made the right decision about the tree I think the lead up to Christmas is as good as Christmas Day itself and it looks beautiful. Thrilled that you’ve found love and may it grow and grow.
Hello, Nicolas. It is so lovely that you are careful while giving your tours to be aware of others around you enjoying themselves. This quality of thoughtfulness also shines through when you discuss the need for an architect or designer to be aware of the daiy life and cycles of the client, right down to the entryway and the best storage of boots, etc. If more people were taking care to be respectful and aware of all around them, this world would be a better place. Finally, so happy you have found a special someone. Cheers, M. Murphy ("Moe")
I have to say, your videos bring something so special to my day. They are so calming and so interesting, have been going through some rough times lately and seeing all this beauty you create is very uplifting. You have a great eye and you are such an interesting and talented person!
I'm a skincare junkie myself. Although I now work in technology, I studied to be an Esthetician when I was much younger. The marble top looks so great!! I've seen folks do this technique using a feather to apply the marbleing strokes as well. All the best in your new relationship. Wishing you the best. I love your tree! So elegant and festive. 🥰
The Prestonfield House is absolutely stunning! I really enjoyed the tour. I looked up and read about the history....so interesting! I always put our tree up by mid-Nov. at the latest because this is the time we most enjoy it. That's the benefit of having a faux tree. I had decades of cleaning up the mess of real trees, and was very happy to buy my first faux tree. I have often just cut a few sprigs of foraged evergreens and put in a vase of water to enjoy the scent for a few days. When the needles start dropping it's not a hassle to clean up, and I could always cut a few more fresh sprigs to replace. Well done on your marble painting technique! It looks classy and very elegant. :) ~~M~~
So happy for you Nicolas, but not completely surprised. In one of your videos you mentioned helping a friend move to another country, and I had a feeling he was more than just a friend. Even though we couldn’t hear you singing, still enjoyed the moves and your smile.
This hotel is simple stunning! It has the feeling of a country house! So elegant and full of lovely details! Thanks for sharing! Nice idea to paint the top of the sideboard. Love your Christmast tree, beautiful as always! Enjoy the season! Greetings from Greece
Nicholas! This was wonderful. Prestonfield is spectacular and thank you for the skin care and your personal update. I also loved what you did with the table. Beautfiful!!
Stunning tree!!! Perfect colors, baubles, ribbons, and decorations. It matches the mood of your home - as you pointed out. The painting does dress up that area of your room. And the marbling of your bar cabinet is gorgeous and brings spicing up to the look. Your candlesticks match in texture with your frame around your painting. Beautiful classy bar area. Looking forward to the Christmas swag over your fire place mantle.
Thank you for sharing your skin routine. Such a glow! It was exquisite to go on tour of the Christmas decorated Prestonfield House! The fireplaces, the Christmas trees, the table settings! It seems like the marble top finish is perfect for the sideboard with the beloved Cotswald painting in the perfect spot above it. So awesome you have shared 4 Christmas trees with us❤ This tree was the best one. Such a good decision to go with golds and green! Excellent video with a bonus shot of you singing 🎉
The tour of Prestonville was beautiful and elegant especially the table settings it reminds me of a restaurant where many people loved to sit and enjoy dinner. Love how you did the 🎄🎄 beautiful colors of green and gold . Excellent choices of bubble and ribbons. Love how you painted the top of the furniture of marble design. Excellent choice of colors. You are quite of good when you decorate. God bless you today Nicolas. Enjoy your day today. God bless your family too. Stay focused and stay safe out there. Love to see Sophie my star ⭐ special girl. Take care of yourself. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I think the gold and green tree looks pretty good. I’m a HUGE fan of traditional and LOVE red. But this gold and green tree looks great and it suits your style like you said.
Such a beautiful video…. Love the faux marble top……Love the gorgeous tree…the tour of Prestonfield house was amazing… and you’re right about the Cotswold painting it looks like it is where it belongs . Thank you for sharing your special news …. Delighted for you 🥰.. The whole video was so festive 🎄 ……
Great video, Nicolas! Your tree looks beautiful. Nice job on your sideboard and your Cotswold painting is perfect there. Can't wait to see what you do on your mantle and wreath. Well done, you!
It was very generous of you to share with us about the personal relationship in your life. And though it was not at all necessary on your part, it certainly is very thoughtful of you. Your video was wonderful and so very soothing, at least for MYSELF it was. Btw, your complexion really does look great.
I'm very happy for you, Nicolas! Everything looks lovely and thank you so much for sharing. Just don't forget that you're a whole person in a relationship ❤
You gave us so much in this video! Very informative and entertainin! The tree turned out so elegant. I love the idea of using the sage green ribbon to give the vertical element to the tree. The faux marble looks impressive. You have such great ideas!
Congratulations on finding someone to share your life with even if it is currently mostly long distance. Glad you put the tree up and it is looking so elegant and has a perfect colour palette for the room. It will be lovely to see the rest of your holiday decorations.
Love the sideboard, the tree, and the fact that you have met someone special. I wish you a very Merry Christmas and hope that you and your friend make great memories of your first Christmas together. 🎄
My God, what a beauty! You are an esthete, Nicholas! I liked the Christmas tree decorations you chose. Magic, people celebrate this holiday with bated breath. Let everything be the way you want. Merry Christmas❤🎄❤🎄❤🎄☃️❄🌨❄🌨❄🌨
The ornaments are gorgeous and the tree is really nice, especially because it's full and realistic looking. The Cotswold painting looks perfect over the nice faux marble topped cabinet. That wall looks complete now. Enjoy the Christmas season Nicolas!
You will thank yourself years down the road. I believe good skin care makes all the difference. I started using hyaluronic acid in a serum and moisturizer and my skin is healthier in appearance than it was previously.
Nicolas your tree looks absolutely gorgeous I love your colour scheme the greens with the gold looks fab. Well done with the marbling the finished effect with the painting above is truly inspired. So pleased you have met someone to share your life with I hope you will be very happy together for many years ❤
What a lovely video. The elegant Prestonfield House , how beautiful it is. It must be so special to have tea there. I am so happy for you that you have met someone. I was one of the viewers who encouraged you to put up your tree and I’m so glad you did, it’s lovely and the calm soft color choices are perfect. The sideboard looks amazing! Thank you again for another wonderful, relaxing and inspiring video. 🎄 Give Sophie a hug she’s so sweet.
Thank you for sharing your special, but private news. It is nice to know that you have someone special to spend the holidays with. Your tree came out just lovely. I also like to coordinate my tree with the decor and furnishings.
That's a gorgeous color scheme on your tree! It's not monochrome but some sort of variation of it using a range of subtle colors that harmonize. Quiet elegance. You'll be glad you have the tree when your love returns and you enjoy an evening in the glow of the Christmas tree. It just adds so much! My tree is done and will stay up until March. I'm in the northern USA and suffer through the cold and dark of winter. It's a white tree with spectacular twinkling lights and pastel and gold flowers and ornaments. Next year I'm thinking of adding a slim white tree to a corner of the kitchen in a candy/cupcake/lollipop theme to cheer me up until the sun comes around again. I'm a creature of the sun and live for the spring and summer.
I’m in South Africa- and I miss cold ( maybe snowy) weather! But this year am going to be in Germany with relatives for Christmas 🤶… wishing you a lovely time during Advent too!
Thank You Nicolas!! A beautiful installment!! Thank you for sharing. The tree is gorgeous. All it really needs is a tree-topper. Wishing you all the best in life. I'm betting that when the holidays rolled around, you and your siblings turned this into a family party. The smaller green ribbons were a better choice. Love the color palette. Cheers and Hugs from NYC!!!
Your home looks great with the Christmas tree all done up. I wondered where that beautiful painting was hiding,nice you brought it back to the living room. Seasons greetings to you.
So happy for you Nicolas ! Everyone needs a special someone in there life, and I'm glad you'll be able to spend some time with him before Christmas. The table top looks great !
I am so very happy for you Nicholas that you found someone special! I noticed in earlier videos and in this video, that you are wearing what looks like a Cartier Love bracelet, but thought that you never mentioned being in a relationship. Now it makes sense. Your marbling looks fantastic and so chic indeed, as does your tree! Just stunning! So happy you decided to put up your tree and shared decorating it with us as well as your special news!
The Tree is lovely and the marbling you painted looks just like a real slab you can buy! I had my doubts at first but it is amazingly authentic looking! Good job!
A stunning tree...love the luxury feel of it. You've used very similar colors that I use on my living room tree. My family room tree is much less formal. Congrats on your relationship. Love is transforming...❤❤
This is one of my most favorite videos you have done. Everything is so cozy and calm, I really enjoy your aesthetic. I love the gold pears and stars on your tree. Your apartment is really coming together beautifully, well done. I really enjoy your tours of the nearby manors they are absolutely stunning I love the opulence and velvety textures and textiles in the walls. This video was so well done … I really enjoyed this ❤😊
Bravo for the faux marble Nicolas ! I was skeptical at the beginning but really amazed at the result ! I am so happy that you found someone special, you really deserve being happy with someone to share your life. Love from France !
Nicolas, your marble top looks great ... as does your tree!! Thank you for sharing your ideas and for the extra bonus of the field trip! And, wishing you and your new boyfriend many happy times together!
Lovely vlog, as ever. Love the tree, green and gold looks stunning. I really like the home bar - can't wait to see everything finished! I'm pleased you're looking forward to spending some time with your partner and that it's going well x
How wonderful that you have a loving relationship. Thank you for sharing that news, Nicholas. It is very private but it's also good to spread Joy! Happy Days, eh? xxxx
I'll have to try that device in my skin care routine. Looks really invigorating. There are so many beautiful houses in the UK. How interestingly that marble technique turned out on your sideboard! I fluff up my faux tree as well. It makes it look wonderful. How lovely that you've found someone special. I wish you all good things. Thank you for sharing your Christmas spirit with us.
Your best work yet Nicolas. Authentic, warm and natural. Tree is gorgeous, will be saving up for a Balsalm Hill tree, especially a pre-lit! The colours are beautiful and so chic. Delighted for you & your special person ❤️🥰
Nicholas, My partner and I just started watching your channel and please let me say that we are enchanted by your grace, gentility and aesthetics. I am grateful that we have you to provide for us a calm and lovely oasis in the midst of such a mad world. You are that rarest of things in today's world: a true gentleman. Thank you for sharing yourself with all of us.
I'm thrilled for you Nicolas.... nothing is more exciting than your first Christmas together with your new Honey!!❤....enjoy ❤
And 🍯 Honey taste so good , doesn't it ? Drizzle it on roasted nuts or on roasted peaches 🍑 or apricots . Simply scrumptious 😋 . 🧸🎀🧸
Absolutely just simply perfect drinks area. I'm tempted to try it on my dresser, which has a beautiful oval mirror on it's top section & small cupboards either side with leaded glass fronts. I'm excited. Happy Christmas ❤

I been using the old version for years it’s amazing, and now I have the 4 this product is awesome. Enjoy,
I love how you painted the table and the painting is perfect in that location.
Your tree is perfect for your room. The sideboard is beautiful especially with the faux marble top. It is an elegant piece of furniture for your bar.
I have to say, your videos bring something so special to my day. They are so calming and so interesting, have been going through some rough times lately and seeing all this beauty you create is very uplifting. You have a great eye and you are such an interesting and talented person!
Николас, спасибо❗Интересно посмотреть классический английский интерьер. Рождественские украшения тоже красивые😊
I'm a skincare junkie myself. Although I now work in technology, I studied to be an Esthetician when I was much younger. The marble top looks so great!! I've seen folks do this technique using a feather to apply the marbleing strokes as well. All the best in your new relationship. Wishing you the best. I love your tree! So elegant and festive. 🥰
Thank you! I also tried with a feather - it works well!
The Prestonfield House is absolutely stunning! I really enjoyed the tour. I looked up and read about the history....so interesting! I always put our tree up by mid-Nov. at the latest because this is the time we most enjoy it. That's the benefit of having a faux tree. I had decades of cleaning up the mess of real trees, and was very happy to buy my first faux tree. I have often just cut a few sprigs of foraged evergreens and put in a vase of water to enjoy the scent for a few days. When the needles start dropping it's not a hassle to clean up, and I could always cut a few more fresh sprigs to replace. Well done on your marble painting technique! It looks classy and very elegant. :) ~~M~~
So happy for you Nicolas, but not completely surprised. In one of your videos you mentioned helping a friend move to another country, and I had a feeling he was more than just a friend. Even though we couldn’t hear you singing, still enjoyed the moves and your smile.
Ohhhhh.,.yo también me volví enamorar este año...del Verde y el DORADO...hasta el punto de pintar muebles y puertas verdeeeesss
🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎺🎷📯🍂🦋🍁
This video was just so great! Tree is fantastic, sideboard terrific and your news of a beau is wonderful. Thanks for such an uplifting time!
My pleasure! Thank you!
This hotel is simple stunning! It has the feeling of a country house! So elegant and full of lovely details! Thanks for sharing! Nice idea to paint the top of the sideboard. Love your Christmast tree, beautiful as always! Enjoy the season! Greetings from Greece
Nicholas! This was wonderful. Prestonfield is spectacular and thank you for the skin care and your personal update. I also loved what you did with the table. Beautfiful!!
Stunning tree!!! Perfect colors, baubles, ribbons, and decorations. It matches the mood of your home - as you pointed out. The painting does dress up that area of your room. And the marbling of your bar cabinet is gorgeous and brings spicing up to the look. Your candlesticks match in texture with your frame around your painting. Beautiful classy bar area. Looking forward to the Christmas swag over your fire place mantle.
Thank you for sharing your skin routine. Such a glow! It was exquisite to go on tour of the Christmas decorated Prestonfield House! The fireplaces, the Christmas trees, the table settings! It seems like the marble top finish is perfect for the sideboard with the beloved Cotswald painting in the perfect spot above it. So awesome you have shared 4 Christmas trees with us❤ This tree was the best one. Such a good decision to go with golds and green! Excellent video with a bonus shot of you singing 🎉
The tour of Prestonville was beautiful and elegant especially the table settings it reminds me of a restaurant where many people loved to sit and enjoy dinner. Love how you did the 🎄🎄 beautiful colors of green and gold . Excellent choices of bubble and ribbons. Love how you painted the top of the furniture of marble design. Excellent choice of colors. You are quite of good when you decorate. God bless you today Nicolas. Enjoy your day today. God bless your family too. Stay focused and stay safe out there. Love to see Sophie my star ⭐ special girl. Take care of yourself. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I think the gold and green tree looks pretty good. I’m a HUGE fan of traditional and LOVE red. But this gold and green tree looks great and it suits your style like you said.
The marble top turned out beautifully and your Christmas tree is perfectly decorated. It's stunning! Lovely video. Thank you.❤
Such a beautiful video…. Love the faux marble top……Love the gorgeous tree…the tour of Prestonfield house was amazing… and you’re right about the Cotswold painting it looks like it is where it belongs . Thank you for sharing your special news …. Delighted for you 🥰..
The whole video was so festive 🎄 ……
Great video, Nicolas! Your tree looks beautiful. Nice job on your sideboard and your Cotswold painting is perfect there. Can't wait to see what you do on your mantle and wreath. Well done, you!
The tree looks lovely and so does the ‘marble’ finish.
Thank you!
Prestonfield....such a beautiful and amazing place. Thank you so much for taking us on a tour. Really special.
I am so happy for you! We all deserve love. My very best wishes for you.
It was very generous of you to share with us about the personal relationship in your life. And though it was not at all necessary on your part, it certainly is very thoughtful of you.
Your video was wonderful and so very soothing, at least for MYSELF it was. Btw, your complexion really does look great.
I am so happy for you you deserve some one nice good luck and have a wonderful Christmas with your familyxxxx
I'm very happy for you, Nicolas! Everything looks lovely and thank you so much for sharing. Just don't forget that you're a whole person in a relationship ❤
You made my day, stunning marbling, pretty tree and hearing you met someone “ special” has warmed my heart you so deserve a full life. Take care. 🎄
Thank you so much! X
You gave us so much in this video! Very informative and entertainin! The tree turned out so elegant. I love the idea of using the sage green ribbon to give the vertical element to the tree. The faux marble looks impressive. You have such great ideas!
Congratulations on finding someone to share your life with even if it is currently mostly long distance. Glad you put the tree up and it is looking so elegant and has a perfect colour palette for the room. It will be lovely to see the rest of your holiday decorations.
Wow! I can‘t believe how the table turned out! It really looks like marble! Great job!
Love the sideboard, the tree, and the fact that you have met someone special. I wish you a very Merry Christmas and hope that you and your friend make great memories of your first Christmas together. 🎄
Thank you!
My God, what a beauty! You are an esthete, Nicholas! I liked the Christmas tree decorations you chose. Magic, people celebrate this holiday with bated breath. Let everything be the way you want. Merry Christmas❤🎄❤🎄❤🎄☃️❄🌨❄🌨❄🌨
Thank you so much!
The ornaments are gorgeous and the tree is really nice, especially because it's full and realistic looking. The Cotswold painting looks perfect over the nice faux marble topped cabinet. That wall looks complete now. Enjoy the Christmas season Nicolas!
You will thank yourself years down the road. I believe good skin care makes all the difference. I started using hyaluronic acid in a serum and moisturizer and my skin is healthier in appearance than it was previously.
Nicolas your tree looks absolutely gorgeous I love your colour scheme the greens with the gold looks fab. Well done with the marbling the finished effect with the painting above is truly inspired. So pleased you have met someone to share your life with I hope you will be very happy together for many years ❤
What a lovely video. The elegant Prestonfield House , how beautiful it is. It must be so special to have tea there. I am so happy for you that you have met someone. I was one of the viewers who encouraged you to put up your tree and I’m so glad you did, it’s lovely and the calm soft color choices are perfect. The sideboard looks amazing! Thank you again for another wonderful, relaxing and inspiring video. 🎄 Give Sophie a hug she’s so sweet.
Thank you for sharing your special, but private news. It is nice to know that you have someone special to spend the holidays with. Your tree came out just lovely. I also like to coordinate my tree with the decor and furnishings.
Beautiful skin and Christmas tree. I hope that you have a wonderful time with your family and friends. Merry Christmas from Texas.
That's a gorgeous color scheme on your tree! It's not monochrome but some sort of variation of it using a range of subtle colors that harmonize. Quiet elegance. You'll be glad you have the tree when your love returns and you enjoy an evening in the glow of the Christmas tree. It just adds so much!
My tree is done and will stay up until March. I'm in the northern USA and suffer through the cold and dark of winter. It's a white tree with spectacular twinkling lights and pastel and gold flowers and ornaments. Next year I'm thinking of adding a slim white tree to a corner of the kitchen in a candy/cupcake/lollipop theme to cheer me up until the sun comes around again. I'm a creature of the sun and live for the spring and summer.
I’m in South Africa- and I miss cold ( maybe snowy) weather! But this year am going to be in Germany with relatives for Christmas 🤶… wishing you a lovely time during Advent too!
@@sabinekoch3448 Enjoy your Christmas in Germany!
Thank You Nicolas!! A beautiful installment!! Thank you for sharing. The tree is gorgeous. All it really needs is a tree-topper. Wishing you all the best in life. I'm betting that when the holidays rolled around, you and your siblings turned this into a family party. The smaller green ribbons were a better choice. Love the color palette. Cheers and Hugs from NYC!!!
Your home looks great with the Christmas tree all done up. I wondered where that beautiful painting was hiding,nice you brought it back to the living room. Seasons greetings to you.
So happy for you Nicolas ! Everyone needs a special someone in there life, and I'm glad you'll be able to spend some time with him before Christmas. The table top looks great !
I am so very happy for you Nicholas that you found someone special! I noticed in earlier videos and in this video, that you are wearing what looks like a Cartier Love bracelet, but thought that you never mentioned being in a relationship. Now it makes sense. Your marbling looks fantastic and so chic indeed, as does your tree! Just stunning! So happy you decided to put up your tree and shared decorating it with us as well as your special news!
Thank you so much !
The Tree is lovely and the marbling you painted looks just like a real slab you can buy! I had my doubts at first but it is amazingly authentic looking!
Good job!
A stunning tree...love the luxury feel of it. You've used very similar colors that I use on my living room tree. My family room tree is much less formal. Congrats on your relationship. Love is transforming...❤❤
This is one of my most favorite videos you have done. Everything is so cozy and calm, I really enjoy your aesthetic. I love the gold pears and stars on your tree. Your apartment is really coming together beautifully, well done. I really enjoy your tours of the nearby manors they are absolutely stunning I love the opulence and velvety textures and textiles in the walls. This video was so well done … I really enjoyed this ❤😊
Bravo for the faux marble Nicolas ! I was skeptical at the beginning but really amazed at the result ! I am so happy that you found someone special, you really deserve being happy with someone to share your life. Love from France !
Nicolas, your marble top looks great ... as does your tree!! Thank you for sharing your ideas and for the extra bonus of the field trip!
And, wishing you and your new boyfriend many happy times together!
❤ I’m so happy for you both, Nicolas xx
Lovely vlog, as ever. Love the tree, green and gold looks stunning. I really like the home bar - can't wait to see everything finished! I'm pleased you're looking forward to spending some time with your partner and that it's going well x
How wonderful that you have a loving relationship. Thank you for sharing that news, Nicholas. It is very private but it's also good to spread Joy! Happy Days, eh? xxxx
As always....everything looks elegant. Thank you for sharing🪻
I'll have to try that device in my skin care routine. Looks really invigorating. There are so many beautiful houses in the UK. How interestingly that marble technique turned out on your sideboard! I fluff up my faux tree as well. It makes it look wonderful. How lovely that you've found someone special. I wish you all good things. Thank you for sharing your Christmas spirit with us.
I think you did an excellent job on the "marble" and the tree.
Your best work yet Nicolas. Authentic, warm and natural. Tree is gorgeous, will be saving up for a Balsalm Hill tree, especially a pre-lit! The colours are beautiful and so chic. Delighted for you & your special person ❤️🥰
Nicholas, My partner and I just started watching your channel and please let me say that we are enchanted by your grace, gentility and aesthetics. I am grateful that we have you to provide for us a calm and lovely oasis in the midst of such a mad world. You are that rarest of things in today's world: a true gentleman. Thank you for sharing yourself with all of us.
So kind! Thank you!
