David, you are truly the most incredible floral designer on the internet, Tennessee should be honored. I enjoy all of your video's. God Bless
Thank you for the kind words. :)
Love the more traditional colors and look Ms. Jan and Mr. David. A beautiful wreath. I really hope that you do more. God's speed.
Love it! "Classy not Clashy or Trashy"... I will embrace this "motto"!!!❤
It is always a pleasure to see you both, I now know what a old money wreath looks like! David you always deliver a stunning design!!🙂❤
Thank you so much 😊
David is a master designer! He just knows what to put together and how to do it! Hats off to David! A beautiful wreath. Handsome ribbon.
The ribbon is gorgeous. Thank you for sharing that beautiful ribbon.
Thank you! 😊
Great video!! Magnificent wreath!! Love the so called “Old Money” look!!!💕 Love the design and love all the beautiful textures!!💕 Thanks for a wonderful video!!💕
Thanks so much! 😊
Hi David and Jen, could you please do a Christmas garland on a square wide archway video please. Things like how far down the sides it should go etc. Luv from Sydney
Sooooooo gorgeous! I'd have stopped at the berry balls, but...WOW!!! That wreath belongs in a Ralph Lauren ad: classy, classic, understated, elegant. Jumpsuit Jen and Decorator Dave, y'all should have a TV show! Lisa, at Ivy Lane Interiors, just posted a UA-cam video where she restored a Jacobean-style chest. That wreath needs to hang over that chest, such a perfect match! Thank you for this video. Love and blessings!!
Thank you so much!😊
Great tip about the berry balls.
Very classy and beautiful as always.
David is my favorite designer and you
Two make the greatest team. 💕
Thank you for the encouragement. ❤️
Beautiful wreath! I love the colors. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent!!!🥰🥰🥰❤❤❤🤗🤗🤗
Thank you so much!
Beautiful as always!! Definitely classy, not trashy 😂❤️
Thank you!! 😊
That is beautiful I love that you demonstrated the different ways with the ribbon ❤❤
Thank you! 😊
This is one of the most beautiful wreaths ever. I love the plaid look. Very classic and classy.
Thank you. Glad you like it.
That is a beautiful wreath. So talented. Thank you for sharing .
Thank you so much!
Just beautiful! Would love to see a tree or wreath decorated in copper and gold or other color that compliments the copper. Love your channel 😊
We will be decorating trees within a month or so 😃
Gorgeous wreath, love the ribbon particularly!!! Thank you for sharing your talent, Christopher!!!!!
Glad you like it! Thank you.
I love when I see a pic both the STEM when they're both wired that means to me whether it cost a lot or little it's going to be a fantastic piece❤
SOOO VERY CLASSY AND OLD FASHION. LOVE IT!! ITS VERY BEAUTIFUL. WITH ITS CLASSIC ORIGINAL COLORS AND THE BULBS FROM OLD TIMES TO NOW,! SO NICE!! GOES WITH OLD CLASSY FURNISHED LIVINGROOMS!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much!!
Fabulous styling, David! Love, Love, Love the ribbon on the wreath!
I agree with you about how some people just walk around and around their Christmas tree with the ribbon and it looks like big circles. When I see trees done like that, I think about the “stack-um” toy for babies that has 5-6 colorful plastic rings that look like donuts and they stack up on a wooden cone. The gorgeous ribbon and the ornaments made the wreath look Victorian to me and I am crazy about that style of decor. Would love to see more of your ideas on that theme.
That’s a good analogy about the stack-um toys. 🤣 We definitely have some trees coming this season with a similar style. 🎄
This is absolutely beautiful! I'm not a red and green Christmas fan, but I love the burgundy tones. That ribbon is exquisite! This is definitely classy and not trashy🤣‼️. Awesome, as always!
Thank you so much! Glad you like it. 🎄
It's absolutely Classy, not Flashy!! I really like the colors and mix of items David used to make this.
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful! 8/22/24! First time watching! 👏😊
Welcome. We are glad you are here. Thank you!
Lovely arrangement! My favorite colors.
Thank you! 😊
I love the OLD MONEY Christmas wreath….nostalgic like when we were young!! I just may use these colors this year as I am cutting back 🥲 just can’t do as I have always done. I may just bring back traditional colors as it is always a great Christmas look and feel. Thanks again for this beautiful display.
You are so welcome!
The wreath looks exquisite!! Welldone!!
Love classic Christmas colour gorgeous 😍😍😍
Thank you for doing Christmas wreaths as I start soon and my head is spinning with colors and themes! David is so good at decorating and love all the ideas! Jen love seeing you too! Yes to good quality ribbon also! Beautiful as always and pray blessings on you two! Please more Christmas videos!🥳😍🥰
You are so welcome! More Christmas is on the way! ❤️
Love it, Especially Your Bow❣️❗️Nancy
What a lovely wreath and I also repurpose my "older" ornaments and pics into my wreaths and lanterns for the hearth. Looking forward to more of your ideas and beautiful designs. Thank you.
Great idea!! Thanks for watching. ❤️
I’m doing a classic “Ralph Lauren” type Christmas. I have a navy blue, kelly green, and red plaid ribbon and I’m adding gold velvet ribbon with it with coordinating trinkets on green foliage. I’m also adding some lighter blue balls that are a lighter hue of the navy, along with silver. I’ll marry the gold and silver with trinkets that are silver, gold, and white. I’m so excited as this will be my first time doing anything but traditional red and green or white and gold!
Sounds lovely. Happy creating!
Love the traditional colors. And the classy not trashy just made me giggle!
This s is absolutely beautiful I am loving it a lot and y you two look so happy and refreshed from your trip hope it was enjoyable for you both 😊Happy day friends 😊

Hello James from Dallas Texas hi listening to y'all talk about old money new money oh Christmas you know I'm an old world Christmas but I would call that old money not that I have old money but new money is Nouveau riche and they are so obvious sometimes it's ridiculous and on the other note about ribbon when it comes to ribbon I love ribbon and I have seen some of the most weird ways people add ribbon would say I'm closer to what David would do and I truly love love love love love love ribbon fabric whatever you're going to use I hate that toilet paper wrap look I don't like when they just stream down straight from the top knot tucking it in or out you just they just leave it hanging no no no no no no no no no Nanette I say in and out angles diagonals come on let's create make it really dense make it beautiful thank you David for sharing your expertise in ribbon❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yes ribbon does make a difference. Beautiful classy and chic wreath WOW! ❤ Hope your having a beautiful summer🥰 I know it’s busy stocking season but take time for yourselves before the big season begins. 🥹
Thank you! 😊 I’m (Jen) trying to talk him into a weekend trip before our kids start back to school. 😂
Pretty
That’s exactly how I always did my ribbon on the wreaths I made for displays for the ideas where I worked years ago at a craft store.
That ribbon is gorgeous!!! Another awesome creation from David! Thanks!
Thank you! Cheers!
Love all the touches.. everything works together..I love how you explain how putting the ribbon on a wreath..I've doing wrong all these years..😊..now it makes scence.
Thank you. Glad to help. 😊
The wreath as always is beautiful. I really enjoyed all the close ups on showing the mechanics as you described what you were doing. I can' decide if I am an impatient person or a visual person. If instructions don't come with pictures I just wing it. Thank you for giving me "pictures".
So glad the up close looks can help. We are both very visual, as well. We try to keep that in mind when making the videos❤️
I love it. The bow really brings it out. Gorgeous.
Thank you! 😊
Way cool. The first garland you put in with the berries was amazing. I'll have to remember that. Loved the plaid ribbon too. I think all the items should come as a kit. Just sayin'. Thank you guys for always sharing your talents. It's much appreciated.
As soon as our wreaths come in, we plan to make a kit. ❤️❤️❤️
This is so pretty. I love the deeper toned red and greens like this. And I'm saving this fir future reference for the ribbon. I always want my ribbon to look like this, but sometimes have trouble executing it.
I would at those Goose shoes are not Old Money. It's actually annoying that it's become trendy, but the old money or quiet luxury aesthetic comes from the esthetic of people that have money and aren't trying to show it off. But they can afford the very best. They choose quality materials and classic elegance over flashy name brands or over the top fads. So, they're going to wear the finest silk, wool, precious metals, etc but they're going to choose timeless, elegant tailoring. Not the flashy tacky huge name branded stuff. The Goose shoes were expensive, but they weren't timeless and elegant. So, for example the old money esthetic wouldn't choose the Louis Vuitton bag with the logo everywhere. They would choose a different bag from that line or a different bag all together that was handmade leather.
Thank you for taking time to explain the Goose shoes trend to us. They were definitely not timeless or classy. Still amazed that they sold for those prices and looked dirty. 😬 Thanks for watching! ❤️
This reminds me of my childhood. Very nice David!!
Thank you, Dawn. 🎄😃

@@pattischult9401 That would be wonderful. We have all of our new Christmas out by Nov 1, usually. :) We can't wait to see you.

Amo assistir os vídeos de vocês dois. Não entendo nada do que vcs falam pq não falo inglês. Mas assisto mesmo assim. ❤ Parabéns. Tudo lindo 😍
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just happened upon your channel and I'm glad I did. That is a gorgeous wreath and the bow is so beautiful looking. Where can I find your bow making tutorial? Thank you for sharing 💜

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Beautiful wreath! I wish you would have shown all the steps of putting in that first garland in the wreath. I never know how to work with a long stem like that.
We thought we did. We can try to give more details next time. Thanks! 😊
Watch the prior video of the black and white wreath. He went into detail in that one.
@@CreativeHomescaping Great suggestion. Thank you!
Just like I was talking about earlier about ribbon packaging the same thing with pics it's hard to find pics that have lengths to them that spray out that have wired branches and wireless and wired in the pedals so I would even love a box full of something like that if you could figure out a way that it would be good pricing of course I'm retired I used to buy wholesale now I don't but I still play and do things so I buy retail we had one time Garden Ridge that was unbelievably fantastic now we have at home which I don't like at all❤
Love the wreath. How would you add lights?
Normally, we add mini lights before we put the decorations on. Or you can decorate the wreath and add fairy lights afterwards. Hope that helps.
👏👏👏👏👏
What about sending a Fluffing Instruction Sheet with the sprays etc. Great instruction, opinions and tips about Ribbon Styling. Janet 🎄🍁🇺🇸
We have talked about doing this in the past. Usually, most people know what to do or will reach out and we give them guided instructions over the phone or by email depending on what they purchased. ❤️ Thanks for the suggestion. We may want to revisit it.
That is GORGEOUS!!!! Can you recommend where we can find that type of ribbon that is affordable?????
We design and develop all of our ribbon. This one isn’t in stock, yet. But we have a lot of ribbon in a variety of price ranges. You definitely get what you pay for in the ribbon world. 😊🎄
I didn’t realize the assortment of ribbon you have! Thank you so much for getting back with me. I’ll be placing an order.
🤗🤗🤗🌲❤❤❤
LIKE THE LEFT SIDE OPENS IT UP
Beautiful wreath. Thanks for sharing. What is the item number for the magnolia stem? TY
They are currently out of stock online, but we have this one in stock: shopdavidchristophers.com/products/magnolia-leaf-branch-39-inch?_pos=13&_sid=323e8fdf6&_ss=r
@@DavidChristophers I saw that one. I am interested in the one you showed. I will keep checking to see when it arrives. TY
David and Jen I have an idea that you might be able to do you know y'all put little packages together of say the Woodland look or the Old Saint Nick look and you ship them well it seems when I order from different companies ribbon I don't always get satisfactory because one ribbon might have great wire the next one might have wimpy spaghetti wire I would love for y'all to do ribbon with strong wiring in 4 inch 3 inch 2 1/2 inch 1 1/2 inch whatever you think that would coordinate well with each other I'm kind of crazy I like all colors and I like different textures I don't know if you could do that or how you would do it but then I could possibly you would know I'd want strong wiring so therefore you would know if I ordered a package it would be ribbon of strong wiring think about it if you will if you understand what I'm trying to say James from Dallas Texas always thinking❤
I googled the phrase... It means Classic and timeless. Basically, A look that will never go out of style
The ribbon is beautiful. It's too busy. You can't really see the ribbon you put around. This is my opinion.
Thanks for your comment.
What size wreath are you using?
The base of the wreath is 36”
Was the ribbon 2.5 or 4 inch?
4 inch
