    Love watching your videos..Please don't wipe out 2023..You should be so proud of yourself in that you still did all those festive decorations for your family inspire of having to face a tragic loss..Its such a great inspiration to all of us..life is not about being perfect snd doing things perfectly all the time..Its about keeping some balance even at the face of challenges..Respect you..Happy decorating..❤

    Lauren, One of the things I love about you is that you bring us along with you, good or bad. You are transparent and let us know it is ok to feel our feelings. Your staircase is beautiful like a grand hotel! Love when Pepe helps and Henry tucks himself into the decor!! ❤

    The banister looks amazing Lauren! I agree with you that the decorations are to enjoy by all. We have 5 mini dachshunds and 5 cats, so everybody seems to enjoy the lights and glitter!! I know your mom is looking over you!! You mentioned bringing your old antique bed over to your new house a few months back......I think it would look stunning in your bedroom!

    I love and adore your Christmas decorations. Traditional/vintage Christmas decor is and always will be the best Christmas decor. It feels the most Christmas. Modern Christmas doesn’t give off the same vibe traditional/vintage does.
    I agree, chili is the one of the best meals. Quick, easy, healthy, and it never misses. ♥️🌲🎁🎄

    Another gorgeous Christmas decorating video. Your decorations last year were incredible as well. Don't even know how you managed it, never mind how beautiful it turned out. That was a horrible time for you. 😢 That Pepee just adores you. It's so sweet how you'll take time out just to snuggle & play w/him. He's so adorable! ❤️

    Looks so beautiful. Years ago I made many Macy's inspired full real feel garland with red and gold ornaments. And I have 15 large bells like you, but I sprayed painted the white antique gold. It looks so beautiful. I have 2 grand staircases in my home, so I needed to make a statement. Years ago pictures of my home inside and out were featured in house beautiful. I love christmas and the tradional colors of the season. Your home is beautiful.

    The staircase is gorgeous and the bells are the cherry on top. Henry and PePe are the cutest, especially Henry in the bells. The added bonus were the mischievous elves in the bells. It made me LOL. 😂

    Y'all's staircase looks stunning as always, Lauren!

    I agree with the Mrs. below Pepe he's so happy it's like he's always dancing in his walk he's too cute! You embraced your Tuscan home the stairs look gorgeous & more is more for sure. It takes time to get a feel for a new space for sure. I really liked the forest up there last year as well so don't knock last years decore everything you do is inspiring. I'm probably going to make that for my kids for lunch today. Enjoy your weekend & love the gray dress you look so cozy & pretty. Enjoy your day 😊
