    The ecoegg is actually used instead of laundry detergent in the washing machine, it‘s not for the dryer! It also says so on the package. It’s an eco friendly way of washing since it doesn’t require any laundry detergent or fabric softener as it cleans with the use of mineral granulate! I hope this helps you to use it correctly 😊😊

    I like the tree in the kitchen but it seems hidden and tucked back in the corner. I think the tree would look more substantial if it was on a platform, box, or one of the creates you had for fall. The a blanket could cover whatever base it is standing on.
    Also, have you considered turning the table vertically fo the holidays to show the length of the room?

    • @ikrobiee

    After a Long day of feeling down, finally something to light up my heart ♥️Thank you Gemma for your amazing videos. Your personality (with everything that your talking about ) just makes me calm and hopeful, that at some point in my life I can have more organization and relaxation.
    I used to watch only your Christmas videos and I’m also normally just a watcher and not a commenting person, but now with starting university, your videos are one of the only things to give me that “at peace” feeling, if you know what I mean.

    I’m definitely making some sausage rolls tomorrow!! When you make them next time you could try turning them upside down, so the fold is on the bottom. Then bake them😊, that normally stops them from opening up when I bake mine. X

    Everything looks so lovely and festive! I leave decorating until closer to December because I need the novelty of exciting new things closer to Christmas- I find if I start too early the novelty wears off and all that's left by the holiday itself is the stressful stuff. But I absolutely adore admiring other people's decorations who put them up on the earlier side!

    If you leave the onion in the fridge it takes away a lot of the strong smell that causes you to cry, or if you don’t have time put it in refrigerator try cold water first cut off the ends on both sides then put it in cold ice water it’ll help a lot with the smell and cause you not to cry or at least not as much lol.

    😆 'last Christmas' is the first song I think to put on in my car when the Christmas CD comes out.
    My autistic son sings Christmas songs when he's happy. He's having a bad time at the moment so we've had the Christmas CD on for the school drive since he started secondary school in September 🤭 we try and start the day off happy.

    Great video and some gorgeous Christmas things. I make sausagerolls alot and the best way is to put the join underneath , that stops them opening and remember to egg wash around the sausagemeat too so the pastry closes easier. also, I take all the skin off, mash the sausagemeat and it makes it easier to put on the pastry. x

  • @Mar-iy8il
    @Mar-iy8il 3 роки тому

    Just a thought but you could place your kitchen tree in the space between the chairs and the table right up near the glass door. That way you would see it full on as you walk into the room and your kitchen is big enough to have it there.

  • @annp97

    I understand what you mean with feeling anxious about too much holiday decor and it looking cluttery. It is like a Christmas explosion at my house. So many of my items are family items that we've set out each year forever, so there is guilt if I don't set it out. I breath a sigh of relief when it is put away after the season.

    Hey lovely! Coming from a chefy here 👩🏼‍🍳 … just a tip for your sausage rolls. One try putting the sausage meat in a piping bag and piping it slightly to one side, then fold over the pastry to seal it and twist to make a little crust, then just score the top. They won’t pop open and it makes them look cute!
    Absolutely loved this vlog, feeling so festive 😍😍😍 xxx
