I love what you do, because it comes straight from your heart. That's the way decorating always should be -- not the latest "trends,"; not the latest "ooooo haaaaa!"; but decor, for whatever season, and for year round living, that speaks to our hearts and whispers "Yes, this is you, and others will love it." I love it, nothing more to say.
This was so nice to watch. Loved the normal pace at which you filmed, instead of speeding everything up. I enjoy seeing shorter clips of real time. It felt like we were there with you, chatting and hanging out while the decorations were put out. I so look forward to all of your videos. Thanks for the time and effort you put into everything. It really shows, and to me you stand out amongst others with your unique, warm, genuine love for home, family, and decorating. I especially love how you share family anecdotes. Merry Christmas, Christopher!
Marshmallow talking while you we’re putting g up the nativity scene was just the cutest!!!
Your navity from your Grandparents is lovely. What a treasure!
You are so lucky to have inherited the Nativity your grandfather made - they took very good care of it. Love the fact you switch things out every year too!
Beautiful home! Your decorations are gorgeous. We have a banister exactly like yours. I used to wrap the garland around the handrail, but after falling down every. single. stair one year....I will NEVER do that again! 🤕 I now put my garland up like you did. As for securing our stockings, we put medium/large cup hooks under the railing, in between the spindles. You can't see them, because they're hidden by the garland. Those hooks have held the heaviest stockings! When you remove them, they leave the tiniest hole, which isn't visible since it's under the banister. When Christmas is over, we put the cup hooks in a small baggie and tuck them into a stocking. That way, the hooks are stored with the stockings and we don't have to replace them every year. Love your videos! 🎄
I love hearing Marshmallow tweeting and talking. Everything looks lovely!
Beautiful Home, Beautiful Owner.
The staircase came out so sweet. The acorn garland has to be one of my favorites. Your guests are going to love it. I appreciate your love for your grandparents' nativity. Christmas decorations passed down through generations are so special. As always, looking forward to what comes next.
Everything was just lovely. I got teared up when you put up your nativity scene. My dad bought mine years ago right after I got married. I have always put it up and so look forward to doing so. Thank you again for all these great ideas.
Grandfather's stable has a light on inside.. we're copying this using old barn boards from 1823 . Thank you for sharing this. Actually we have to make 2 , one for each of the Granddaughters . They'll have theirs to hand down also
Beautiful. I love Christmas villages. They take me back to my childhood and let me pretend I live in them
Everything turned out beauuutiful, when I need inspiration and ideas I just have to look for your videos; timeless, elegance and unique style is what distinguish you love it; thank you for sharing and God bless you and your family 🤗
What lovely decorations! And I love that you even re-use the same straw in the nativity scene that your granparents used. That's something that I would do.
I always love how you always incorporate your family heirlooms to make such nostalgic vignettes. Such a loving heart. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Used a cloth of plastic tablecloth to wrap that big items it will make two gift at once!! Always a joy to see all your decorations.. So beautiful and classy!!
DEFINITELY my favorite house, Christmas decor and videos. It has a feel like its "back in the day". Cozy, elegant, perfect choice of colors. Just wonderful .
Marshmallow made my day, such a joyful little creature. I’m sure my blood pressure went down watching your video. The holidays get very stressful, you definitely help relieve some of that stress. Thank you!
Don't forget the mandarine orange in the toe of the stocking it fills it out nicely! Its been a family tradition for generations in our family.
Your home looks lovely. I really love the nativity creche that your grandfather built. How special that you now enjoy it. The staircase looks great!! May God bless you during this Christmas season!!
Everything looks wonderful. Buuuuuut little Marshmallow 100% stole the show. :)
Love it all looks beautiful 😍 but Marshmallow made it very special singing away in the back ground 🎄
I like the chickens, I normally put loads of animals in my nativity as my parents and grandparent did, and my kids love it. I like the birds in the background
Everything is beautiful as usual. I absolutely love the nativity from your grandparents ❤
It is a labor of love and you have such a big heart. I love you decorating talent. Enjoy the holiday and your family.
Marshmallow sounds so happy! I love the chirping and singing ❤
Marshmallow has opinions! So sweet (got my cat's attention 😳) Can't wait to see everything in your house lit up at night 🌟
You are my favorite to watch. Amazing the numerous talents you have and it comes from your heart and shows in all your displays. Always magazine!
You are so creative! It’s wonderful to watch you put everything together. 💚❤️🤍Your house is just absolutely incredibly beautiful. How sweet little marshmallow is singing away. 💓 Marshmallow is so happy that you’re there in the room with him, he wants to sing you a song and tell you a story❤
Thank you for sharing your family treasures with us. Such special memories.
La escalera quedó bellísima!!! La verdad, todo quedó precioso, eres un artista. Gracias por el video.
BRAVO!!!!!
Your decorations are stunning, your so lucky to have your grandparents memorabilia, beautiful .
Hi Christopher…Thank you for keeping things so real…For example having to add more reinforcement onto the stairwell garland…And …The untidy areas, at least for now, around your home. So many of us can relate to that. I’m excited for your final vision here.
Very tastefully done, and I particularly love the mix of vintage with new and keeping family traditions front and centre.
Genius idea using one string of white lights for your houses. Going to try!
Your videos are great to watch you explain everything so we can Incorporated into our own Christmas decor. The nativity your grandfather made is beautiful so realistic you could never buy one like that one.your home is so beautiful!!
Not sure how to feel about you checking your basement for people, lol! You are truly a master at decorating Christopher. Your house is magazine worthy ❤️
I love the stocking, and the village is gorgeous. I hope you have a great Christmas 🎄 with friends and families. Can't wait to see the Christmas tour.All my love and blessings ❤️
I always look forward to your videos. I use a Velcro tape that is used for plants to affix my garland. I just put it in the box with garland when packing away. Your home is so beautiful and I love all the special touches. Tell your brother we need a tour of his place 😆
Grand idea hanging the stockings with shower curtain hangers onto the garland onto the bannister's railing..
Thank-you for sharing with us.. reviewed this part with my Granddaughter of 7 years who was questioning where everyone's stocking will go? I said I have an idea from your totorial.. so she watched and listened and said , do you have enough shower curtain hooks 🪝.. as we have 10 to hang..
Thanks again for your gentle teaching of your stocking decorating.

When l was little , we would have great fun in wrapping my father’s Christmas presents in strangely shaped boxes. He loved to pick up a box , shake it , then try to guess what his gift was , he was usually correct , UNTIL, we got wise and used the bigger ( or smaller ) boxes .
Fun Christmas memories… now to put up my village !
Everything looks beautiful!
I really enjoyed hearing Marshmallow! He was so sweet! TFS
Love your Grandpa's Nativity. I think Marshmallo does too, lol. I have an angel that belonged to my grandma and I love getting it out every Christmas.
I love your Nativity Scene your Grand Dad made! Very special!
I enjoyed this very much
Everything is beautiful
You have so much talent
The staircase came out beautiful
Your home is beautiful
Those trees that you out behind the houses are stunning

I really love those Christmas village houses they just bring that Christmas spirit in me so thank you for sharing with us
What a wonderful video! I particularly enjoyed watching you set up the village and the nativity. What a family treasure you have in the nativity set! It was a delight to watch and be inspired!
I love marshmallow!! He was excited that you were decorating his room. ❤️🎄your grandparents nativity is beautiful..rustic ❤️
Absolutely gorgeous decorations .My favorite the village .
I an soooo in love with that staircase garland. I love how you placed those bells like wow!! The little details just glare at you . I have a nativity like that. 🥰
You have such a beautiful staircase to decorate. Everything is so pretty. I have a Thomas Kinkaide village I put up with a lot of pretty different trees. I would love to live in that village. Thank you Christopher.
Howdy from Texas.I love your home.How blessed you are to have such a beautiful place to live in.You have such a great style for decor.You make your home so inviting.May God bless and Merry Christmas.
Christopher, I want to live in your village! Great idea putting the stockings on the stairs. Thanks 🧦🧦🧦🧦
I want to come to your party. I want a stocking. Love this video. You gave the the Christmas feels, warm and cozies.
Thank you for sharing your Christmas decorating. I love it all. The Christmas village is so cute. The garland on the stairs is beautiful. What a refreshing idea having the stockings on it. 🎄🎄🎄
I'm sure I will enjoy watching this video next week. I love fall and I always feel cheated because it only seems to last for one month in October. Then everyone blasts you with Christmas. So I have this saved and I will watch it December 1st!
I agree
@@deborahpellerito6117 I will watch Christopher's wonderful Autumn and Halloween videos until December 1st!
Love it all! You need a special star to go on top of the manger scene...
Besides watching you decorate your beautiful house, I loved hearing Marshmallow sing! That brought such joy! And I love hearing all about the family stories and the history behind a lot of your decorations. As always, a beautiful job! 💛💛💛
I just love you you’re such a nice person! Glad I found your channel! I’m so happy you have a wonderful life! ❤️❤️❤️
Your guests are going to love all the beautiful decorations you painstakingly placed. Your staircase is always one of my favorites and this year is gorgeous with the stockings. The village is magical with all its various houses and the manger is a piece to treasure.
Your home is stunning! I think the staircase is my favorite, but everything is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Ok, I’m coming to your house for Christmas, beautiful decorations, thanks for sharing.
You've inspired me to bring out my Christmas village this year, after having it packed away for years! My kids are grown, and I tried to give them the village, but they don't want it! I talked my husband into putting up shelves over my lowboy (similar to your first Christmas village video). And Buffalo snow is the perfect finishing touch.
Que tristeza tampoco se que pasará con la mía 😔pues los hijos crecen y les parece anticuado conservar algunas cositas del baúl .Pero son tan hermosas!
Gorgeous little happy Marshmallow. Maybe for your coat hook present you could use two long gift boxes(cut the middle bits to fit together) then wrap it with Christmas paper 🎄🎄
I discovered your videos this year and have enjoyed them so much. I have to say, you are so much like me in how I decorate, the treasures I love, your style, it is so comforting and it makes me smile. I decorate in a different theme each year in the formal parts of my house. It takes me at least a month to decorate. My wrap is always themed to match the formal tree. I wish I could have given you some of my gold and silver wrap, as I always have extra! One year I decorated in Scandinavian theme (I am Norwegian), one year Scottish (for my husband's roots) and this year I am using my daughter's collection of sweet treats. I have a large quantity of vintage ornaments, so they are always used in some way too. I also make beautiful wreaths from vintage ornaments. You inspire me with your creativity, calming spirit and lovely soul. Thank you! If I may make a suggestion for wrapping the large piece with the vintage hooks: make a round tube around it using poster board and then it will be easy to wrap! Good luck. I also love your pin on your collar.
how realistic, you've made your beautiful village
I love the nativity so much!! Everything looks beautiful!!
I adore these style of videos from you; it’s so nice to see you work your magic in real time vs sped up ❤ everything looks so wonderful!
Love the garland with bells . I need that to alert me when my new puppy gets at it!
My favorite snow for my villages is that same snow and yes, it is a mess! One year i didn't set up my village and my husband, son, son-in-laws and grandkids all had a holy fit because there was no christmas village (it is a ton of work and takes me the better part of a day because i have so many and i literally have levels to my scene.) I didn't realize it at the time, but to them it wasn't christmas without the village! Who knew! I love your staircase!
Christopher I really enjoyed this video your voice is so soft ,and calming,love all the stockings.I always enjoy your videos.
Love this video. So stunning, breath taking and awesome. Thank you. Marshmellow sounds so sweet.
Love your Christmas village - the snow is such a great touch.
Beautiful video! I loved the sounds of your sweet Marshmallow!
Now i'm inspired to bring my village out again. Love your channel so much.
Really liked how the staircase turned out.
Oh I forgot love love love the staircase !!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow! Love the village and that staircase is awesome! I live in a small A Frame cottage with no basement or attic. So my Christmas village is small to say the least. LOL But I got some good ideas from this video for my little village and my staircase. Thanks so much for yet another great video.
What a lovely video! You have such wonderful taste. Thank you for inviting us into your home, and for sharing your Christmas memories.
Perfetto, la tradizione del presepe per chi è cristiano cattolico, ma non solo...il villaggio natalizio sempre più presente nelle case, uniti a tutte le decorazioni classiche e tradizionali che ogni anno trovano una espressione differente nella creatività. Tutto molto bello.
My husband and I stumbled upon your channel and enjoy seeing your beautiful home and your decorating techniques. Just finished our trees, it’s nice to see a few new ideas that we might steal before Santa stops by. 😁🎄
Every thing came out beautiful 💘 ur little village's stocking and ur adorable 🐦 bird thank u amazing taste.
Your staircase and decor look so beautiful Christopher. Everything you do looks so amazing! You really are very creative! Love it all. Thank you for sharing with us! So lovely!!
An idea on how to wrap the vintage hooks...you can try combining two large boxes together or piece together cardboard and make your own box! Good luck and thanks for the video! ❤
I enjoy all of your videos, especially the Holidays! You decorate with purpose and meaning , love that!The staircase decor is beautiful! Your guests are going to feel loved and appreciated by your thoughtfulness. Enjoy your party!
I enjoyed this, it's fun to watch you put things together. I love the stocking on the staircase.
Gorgeous home, God bless you. Awesome decorations. I enjoyed watching 👀 you gave me ideas. Oh for your garland there are these comands they are clear it may help hold it up and you can peel them off and it won't let anything behind. Thank you again I love ❤️ it and enjoyed it!
Thank you for sharing Christopher. You have a really good eye and everything looks wonderful. I'm so inspired. This year I went all out too. Christmas is so uplifting and fun.
Your brother won't mind if the lovely hook rack is not perfect. Again another wonderful video.
Il villaggio è bellissimo come tutte le cose che fai e anche il canto degli uccellini è soave❤😊
Love, love, loved the staircase & stockings. Everything is so beautiful. Can't wait for the home tour video. 💞 I've been watching your channel since the white ribbon Christmas tree video. This is just a new account.
For the odd shaped gifts, I often use fabric wrapping. I buy a large scarf or a throw which becomes a gift in itself.
Love everything you showed us. Thanks for sharing 👍 🥰
Love the staircase.
Beautiful love the staircase just stunning didn't see what happened to the snowman stocking .The village so elegant and love the look of the larger tree behind it .and the manger such cherish memories never forgotten just always kept in your heart .Love entry table tree and collection . Brighten my day 🥰
Thank you! The snowman was around the corner at the very top of the stairs 🙂
Very enchanting 😊
As always, sweet Christopher, beautifully done!!! You are a master holiday decorator!!! You put your whole heart into it, and it shows.
Sending Extra Christmas cheer to you, Tim and Marshmallow!!! Happy decorating, see you again for the next installment.
🍃🤗🍃
Absolutely love your nativity ❤️💕❤️💕❤️
Zip ties work great for hanging garland on a staircase! 🎅🏼👍🏼
Here's a suggestion for wrapping the wall hooks. Use bendable cardboard to wrap around it and then wrap with paper. It will give a flat surface for the wrapping paper to go around and to adhere to.
You have a surprise AROUND EVERY CORNER of your video! I especially love the marshmallow SONG 🎵. Everything is beautiful and you give lots of tips along the way....I enjoy EVERY TIME YOU COME ON! 🎄🎅🥰
Wow - I love that big nativity barn your grandfather made! So neat. EVERYTHING is so pretty. I really like how you did your village scene.
