I am glad I don't have the pressure of all the wrapping of presents! The last few years have been different more layed back precious moments of healing from losing loved ones ...reflecting on the True meaning of Christmas....there is Peace in the Air!😊
What I find so cool is I remember you celebrated 100000 followers and now look it is 143000 that is so cool.You provide such down to earth chats and things that are so relatable to everyday life. Thanks for all you do.
I am So Very Happy you said your kids just want money 💰. Because I really don’t know what my teenage granddaughters would like so I give them a nice cash gift 🎁 🥰
Yes to keeping bows that are fancy and decorative for sure. My mom has done that for years and some of them belonged to my grandmother. I'm 58 and will be seeing some of those same bows at Christmas again. 😄 I do the same thing and with good gift bags too. I'm telling everyone "don't throw that out, I need it back"!😊
Oh gosh if I left putting tags and bows on gifts last, I would never remember what gift is for whom 😂😂😂 I used to hide gifts as well until 1 year I hid them and forgot all about them until the following year, when I found them lol
We gave up on the bow thing years ago. Such a hassle. My mother would save Christmas cards. She would cut them in half and use the front for a tag. She could cut them down a bit and use the part of the card she wanted for the tag. I am less than a days drIve from you. I want to get down your way some day to get to the big quilt store! I am 73 and my forever partner is 79. He takes wrapping gifts and candy making to a high level. It is serious business around here. I keep praying for a new kitchen so we can create a bigger space for quests to gather and, of course, a BIGGER candy making area!! I truly enjoy your videos!
We save bows too. I make beautiful bows with ribbon . We do different themes each year and I add all different ornaments or dried fruits hanging or pinecones to hang from the ribbons sometimes. I have so much paper too lol.
Just wait till you have grandchildren !!! This year I get to wrap gifts for my 2 1/2 year-old granddaughter and it’s so much fun!!! Because I know how excited she will be when she sees all her special presents from Santa!!
I have three small dogs. They always bark when anyone goes down our street. We live in the country and don’t have much traffic. But no one should drive down our street. Too bad they don’t know that. And if someone brings something up our driveway to our house, they really go crazy. All our delivery drivers know. They are all by our front window. One of our dogs lays on the table in front of the window. Another sometimes sits on the windowsill. The other just barks. I usually have to put them outside or in our bedroom to go out and get the packages. I have seven grandkids, and the older ones all want money. So that’s what they will get. My oldest granddaughter I bought an Amazon fire tablet. That’s what I have that I use as an e reader. So she wanted one. I also have two great grandsons. They are both young. One is eighteen months the other is six months. So I just got all their gifts yesterday. I haven’t wrapped anything yet. They won’t be coming until the second of January. They all live in Ohio and were in Georgia. Most of my grandkids use to live less than a half hour from us. And according to my daughter, who is their mom, they will be back after school gets out. She hates the cold. That’s why we moved here. And it’s kind of cold here now. But the sun dos comes out more here than it does in Ohio. I haven’t been back since we moved. And I don’t know if I ever will.
I think Renee has bought opaque window film. Just put the film on the lower windows - in the line of the dog's sight. I am sure this will do the trick.
Having had 3 mini schnauzers I more than understand the incessant barking. Now we have a Havanese and she is exactly like the schnauzers. She barks at anything and everything that moves all day long! We have tried everything but have had no luck at stopping the barking. Can’t wait to see what you are getting!
I do the same thing for bows and even gift boxes if in good shape and gift bags 😅 Christmas Eve sounds super fun with Randy’s parents. Enjoy them all. The years go by so quickly. 😊❤🐾🇺🇸🙏💝🌲
I have always enjoyed wrapping gifts too, My Mom would have me do this for the Grandkids. We also recycle gift bags and its fun to receive some of the same each year! Love your jammies and the gift wrap is so pretty!
We ladies are all just the same, keep the wrapping stuff from each Christmas 🎁🎄 Here in Germany we decorate the gifts also with fresh Holly or Christmas tree Tanned(branches) Have a lovely 3rd Advent 🎁🎄✨🕯️💫🧑🎄
I wrapped a bunch of Christmas presents yesterday and still have more to get done today. I agree with you my kids are grown and want money too. It makes it easy but they have to have something to unwrap. Now my grandchildren are a totally different story. They tell us or make a wish list so that’s a lot of wrapping. I bought rolls of paper from Sam’s Club 4 years ago and I promise it seems like it’s the never ending rolls. 😂 But I got it after Christmas that year and it’s definitely worth it being on sale. See you tomorrow! Have a blessed Sunday!
Omg I love Brecken’s bow! How cute is that! Those are great gifts. Another expensive thing is cards. I have 3 birthdays this month (so far just 3). And with a gift I buy a card. They’re so pretty though.
Hi Renee, my children are also grown up and asked for money…. I told them…. Santa doesn’t bring money, Santa makes gifts in his workshop and drops it under the tree. They all laughed and we made a secret Santa using an app this year. But I’m also making 8 Xmas stockings, even thought they are adults. When I suggested stopping Xmas stockings…. They all gasped. So we open stockings on the 24th morning, after an English breakfast. We have Xmas dinner later and open gifts, play games etc. On the 25th my home is empty… everyone leaves in the morning, just me and the cat stay. Everyone goes to their other families for a traditional Xmas dinner. And I love doing nothing 😂😂…it’s my only day of rest, not thinking or doing anything, taking care of grandchildren or cooking or cleaning or working. I will start a new puzzle, a book or Xmas movies, and eat leftovers. On the 26th, I’m back at work, so 25th is my precious ME day 😂😂😂. Love the bows, I also keep things for the next year, and use packing that I cut to make tags. I love sparkling paper but don’t use it as can’t be recycled in our area. Sometimes I use brown paper, or package 📦 paper, and then embellish it with bows and string. 🎁
I've been watching everyday and look forward to having my coffee in the morning and watching your videos. I have really loved your vlogmas. I definitely need that wrapping paper holder and to keep them from year to year.
I cannot wait to hear about the thing that makes dogs stop barking. My Terripoo also looses her mind when dogs & people walk by our house. I've also tried everything I can think of. She's the cutest thing you've ever seen but I think she's also the loudest. 🤣
I like others on here can’t wait for your dog barking tip. We have a Miniature Schnauzer, and he of course use quite the barker. Spray bottles work somewhat.
I've been doing the same thing for years, saving bows and if I ever meed to buy any I go to the dollar tree store, ain't paying more for those things lol
I have a barker, as well, and it drives me crazy. We live on a golf course so she has golfers, geese, squirrels, and one cat who loves to stop and just stare at her. Abby has a different sound for each one. I taught her to come to her bed with the “place” command and she comes immediately and is quiet, gets a treat. If I keep giving her treats she is totally happy and quiet. If I stop, she goes and finds something to bark at and then runs back to her bed for a reward. 🤦♀️. We are still working on that. I also put up frosted film on some of the windows which works like a dream. However, if I use it on all the windows we would lose our view. I’m looking forward to hearing what you come up with. Have a fantastic day, Renee! 🎄
I can’t wait to see what you ordered for the barking, I have a little dog that barks and barks at our neighbors, delivery trucks, any noise he hears outside.
Oh, Renee! Cannot WAIT for the ‘bark’ mechanism! I have had 5 schnauzers over the past 37 years and presently, have a 17 mos. one; she’s definitely a barker (more so than the other 4 and of course, she’s a pup, for now). Since I live in Lex., sure would have liked to have met/seen you while your daughter attended UK (I retired from there). Also, used to visit Paducah when my brother interned during the summer w/the Ky Highway Dept. Really enjoy/appreciate your videos. Best wishes to you and yours for a Merry Christmas and Happy, Healthy New Year!
Oh girl.....let me tell you! We got it installed yesterday afternoon....and I haven't heard a single bark since. Even this morning a family from our neighborhood was walking with their 3 kids, and nobody barked! Amazing! Can't wait to share with you soon
1:20 Lola is wondering if there is anything in it for her.💕 Suggestion: How about layering your clothing for the Christmas party, that will probably work for whatever the temperature will be.
Last night I wrapped Christmas gifts too! I listened to Christmas music & made matching gift tags to match the wrapping gift paper! I put all kinds of berries ,pinecones, stars & snowmen. Lots of velvet ribbons & bows! Whew…I have 4 more gifts to do…today! Looking forward to Christmas Eve! 🎄
Sounds so pretty! I used to put berries and all of the little trinkets on gifts...but not so much anymore. I will for a few of them because it makes the gift so pretty. I always used to really do-up my mom's gift...she loved all of that stuff ❤️
Hi Renee I still look forward to watching all of your videos that you have put out,especially the next one about the dog barking. I have three dogs also one small dog. He’s eight years old and he barks like crazy and now he’s teaching one of the others to . bark . I hope it works so can’t wait to see that one!😊
Have a great day Susie! I'm actually heading out of town with Brecken this morning to do something special.....💕 And I have a special gift to give her when she gets here. Wink wink
Hi Renee! You are like me, I love wrapping paper. I need to stop buying until I use some but they always have the cutest patterns. I think you've motivated me to wrap some gifts today.
Me too, I have SO much wrapping paper! I have forbidden myself from going in their store this year because I don't need anything. It's so hard to not go!
Hi! Not everyone knows what they're getting. For example: my kids don't know. I buy everything and take it to Randy's parents. Of course I know....but most years, Randy doesn't
I asked my neighbor, how she gets her three dogs not to bark. She said, :we leave white noise on." I hope this may help someone and it is free on UA-cam to leave it on all day or as needed.
I think I know what your ordered for the dogs but won't say anything. When you talk about it I'll see if I'm right. If it is, it's exactly what I was going to suggest you do (and if it isn't, I'll suggest it to you). If you're interested, I've got some tips and this stuff works--but only if you do it correctly and consistently. That's the key--consistency from both you and Randy. And timing. Sometimes it comes down to shoving a treat in the dog's mouth and praising them when they aren't barking because they're taking a breath. Sit down and think what do you want Maxxie to do instead of bark? Be quiet isn't the answer. You have to put it to the "dead man test". If a dead man can do it, it isn't behavior and you can't use it. Being quiet is something a dead man can do, so you can't use that. You have to pick an actual behavior (like grabbing a favorite toy--that's a really good choice because the cannot bark while he's holding his toy in his mouth--called differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior). It isn't easy and most people find they need help from a positive trainer. And I'm happy you're not using the bark collar. Those are extremely aversive to the dog and they scare most dogs. It's much better to change behavior be teaching a dog something to do instead of the thing you don't like rather than changing their behavior by scaring or hurting them.
Actually.....the "new thing" arrived yesterday. Randy and I got it installed last night, and it's working beautifully!! Just a few minutes ago, our neighbors with their 3 kids walked down the street and in front of our house. Not a single dog barked!!!!! It was glorious!!! I filmed us doing the installation last night...and I'm going to give it a few days to make sure it's actually doing what I want...then that video will come out. Woo hoo to this idea of mine! 🤪
@@WelcomeToMyCurlsOh, I will need to watch and find out what it is. I have three dogs and one dog is the instigator. When he hears a car, delivery truck, sees a neighbor, etc he has a come apart. Then, the other two join in. He has now started barking at our neighbor’s twinkling Christmas lights. 🤦🏼♀️ I love these doggies, but this is a real problem.
Who put the empty tag paper back in the box and didn't throw it away? My guess would be my husband! I love this man dearly, I love this man more after 38 years than the day I married him. This man was by my side after my fall down the stairs and he was my biggest cheerleader and didn't hesitate to give me a swift kick in the butt (figuratively) when I needed it. He saw me at my absolute worst and he sees the scars now and he's stuck with me through it all. But he does stuff like that all the time! I accuse him of being a hoarder (only half joking), as he's always putting empty things back away instead of throwing them away. We have quite a collection of empty pill bottles! I go through every so often and throw everything away or recycle it.
Many's the Christmas I would have liked some money. But that's not Christmas! No money for Christmas. Take what you receive and be grateful for it. Or exchange it if you like. But no money.
Love your videos how to tell you that I buy my wrapping paper in BJs Wholesale Club this year the paper was double sided one side had Santa Claus and the other side had a red background with ho ho ho written all over it. I tried to figure out how to send a picture with this comment, but it’s not letting me do that! Anyway, hope you feel better soon. Merry Christmas and happy holidays !!
Axolotl. When I wrap gifts I lightly write the name of the recipient on the corner of the back of the package in pencil. I add my tags later. I rarely give gifts or just a few and they are all generally cash. I can’t go out shopping because there are so many sick people out, I can’t afford to catch anything. Gift cards are foolish when you can give cash unless you know that party will use the money inappropriately. The past couple of years have been extremely expensive, a new roof and just a month ago a new furnace. A new central air conditioning system coming in the spring, so you understand my predicament. It will be a burden to give gifts particularly when nobody reciprocates. By that I mean, nobody even makes an effort. No, I’m not a witch. I’m kind and generous. I do not save paper nor ribbon. It all goes in the trash. My packages, when I bought actual gifts, all had a different theme each year and were wrapped beautifully. They were all complementary.
You are so normal and fun to listen to. Your chatter is always a bright spot for me. Merry Christmas!!
Thanks so much! You're so kind!
I am glad I don't have the pressure of all the wrapping of presents! The last few years have been different more layed back precious moments of healing from losing loved ones ...reflecting on the True meaning of Christmas....there is Peace in the Air!😊

I am So Very Happy you said your kids just want money 💰. Because I really don’t know what my teenage granddaughters would like so I give them a nice cash gift 🎁 🥰
Axolotl is what they are. One of My Granddaughter’s favorite aquatic animals! So cute!
Yes to keeping bows that are fancy and decorative for sure. My mom has done that for years and some of them belonged to my grandmother. I'm 58 and will be seeing some of those same bows at Christmas again. 😄 I do the same thing and with good gift bags too. I'm telling everyone "don't throw that out, I need it back"!😊
Such a pleasure to watch & listen to what you have to share.
👌👌👌👌
ThanQ, Renee.
Oh gosh if I left putting tags and bows on gifts last, I would never remember what gift is for whom 😂😂😂
I used to hide gifts as well until 1 year I hid them and forgot all about them until the following year, when I found them lol
I just want to say thank you for sharing all your experiences. You talked me into having my hysterectomy and I feel 100% better for it❤❤❤
You’re welcome! It’s such a big decision...glad you're feeling better!

Renee you give each gift such love and attention .. straight from your heart. Great entertaining video thank you
Thanks for watching! 🥰
It didn’t work with a Jack Russell Terrier either. Totally understand! Merry Christmas Renee to you and your family!🙂🎄❤️
Renee, that is too funny about your dog barking! It also doesn’t work with a Dachshund! They don’t need an excuse to bark 😂
I've been watching everyday and look forward to having my coffee in the morning and watching your videos. I have really loved your vlogmas. I definitely need that wrapping paper holder and to keep them from year to year.

I like others on here can’t wait for your dog barking tip. We have a Miniature Schnauzer, and he of course use quite the barker. Spray bottles work somewhat.
I have 2 of those containers for my wrapping paper, I’ve had them for years. If I remember right, I got them at Lowe’s.
Love that idea bout the wrapping paper container
I've been doing the same thing for years, saving bows and if I ever meed to buy any I go to the dollar tree store, ain't paying more for those things lol
Bows are so expensive! It's so silly
I have 2 schnauzers and yes they bark.

Oh my....I can only imagine the barking living on a golf course!!!
@@WelcomeToMyCurls It does get a little crazy during the summer! 🤣
Renee you are like me I can't stop buying paper and pretty cards ! Hobby Lobby has such pretty things at Christmas. Your family will love these gifts❤
Hobby Lobby has the BEST stuff! And their paper is wonderful. I just have to stay away from their store or else I'll buy paper I don't need :)
I can’t wait to see what you ordered for the barking, I have a little dog that barks and barks at our neighbors, delivery trucks, any noise he hears outside.

Our family saves bows as well.
I wish but I’m not a good wrapper. I have to depend on my daughter. She wraps beautifully.
Yep, we xa e own too!
You said you tried everything. Did you try a Muzzle or did you try an automatic ultrasonic dog bark controller?
AXOLOTL ❤...love the stuffed version❤..pronounced..AX OH LOTTLE❤
They are adorable!
Axolotl is the name of the toys
Renee I can’t wait to what can make yours dogs stop barking ????
We can’t put Christmas gifts under our tree because our furry child is noisy and will rip them all apart.
Present..listening to you,❤
I say it every year, I would love to be a man at Christmas.! We do all the shopping for gifts, wrap them, shop for food etc etc etc
Does everyone opening presents at Randy’s parents’ house know what they are getting? 🤭
Hi! Not everyone knows what they're getting. For example: my kids don't know. I buy everything and take it to Randy's parents. Of course I know....but most years, Randy doesn't
🎁🎄🎁🎄🎁❣️
just wait till you’re a grandma!!!
I miss wrapping Christmas presents 🎁 with my Daughter when they were younger 🧡
Me too! I have more to wrap so maybe Brecken will come over and wrap with me.
Thats wonderful 🩷 @WelcomeToMyCurls
I can’t wait to see what you got the dogs. As you were talking about it, what happened? My two started barking at neighbors walking their dog!
If I don’t put the tag on the gift right after wrapping it, I wont remember who it’s for…
I asked my neighbor, how she gets her three dogs not to bark. She said, :we leave white noise on." I hope this may help someone and it is free on UA-cam to leave it on all day or as needed.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Where are the dogs? They usually are wandering around.
Your video was really interesting as per usual.
Lola came into the kitchen to check out all of the wrapping supplies. Maxxie and Pollux were asleep in the front room .
I'm sorry, Renee first thing I thought where's the tissue paper
I don't use tissue paper in gifts for little kids. There's no point.
I think I know what your ordered for the dogs but won't say anything. When you talk about it I'll see if I'm right.

It isn't easy and most people find they need help from a positive trainer. And I'm happy you're not using the bark collar. Those are extremely aversive to the dog and they scare most dogs. It's much better to change behavior be teaching a dog something to do instead of the thing you don't like rather than changing their behavior by scaring or hurting them.
Actually.....the "new thing" arrived yesterday. Randy and I got it installed last night, and it's working beautifully!! Just a few minutes ago, our neighbors with their 3 kids walked down the street and in front of our house. Not a single dog barked!!!!! It was glorious!!! I filmed us doing the installation last night...and I'm going to give it a few days to make sure it's actually doing what I want...then that video will come out. Woo hoo to this idea of mine! 🤪
@@WelcomeToMyCurlsOh, I will need to watch and find out what it is. I have three dogs and one dog is the instigator. When he hears a car, delivery truck, sees a neighbor, etc he has a come apart. Then, the other two join in. He has now started barking at our neighbor’s twinkling Christmas lights. 🤦🏼♀️ I love these doggies, but this is a real problem.
Who put the empty tag paper back in the box and didn't throw it away? My guess would be my husband! I love this man dearly, I love this man more after 38 years than the day I married him. This man was by my side after my fall down the stairs and he was my biggest cheerleader and didn't hesitate to give me a swift kick in the butt (figuratively) when I needed it. He saw me at my absolute worst and he sees the scars now and he's stuck with me through it all. But he does stuff like that all the time! I accuse him of being a hoarder (only half joking), as he's always putting empty things back away instead of throwing them away. We have quite a collection of empty pill bottles! I go through every so often and throw everything away or recycle it.
Who put the empty tag paper back in the box at my house? My guess would be a daughter! LOL
Did you know you can freshen a bow with a curling iron or flat iron
Axolotls... ❤
Many's the Christmas I would have liked some money. But that's not Christmas! No money for Christmas. Take what you receive and be grateful for it. Or exchange it if you like. But no money.
Love your videos how to tell you that I buy my wrapping paper in BJs Wholesale Club this year the paper was double sided one side had Santa Claus and the other side had a red background with ho ho ho written all over it. I tried to figure out how to send a picture with this comment, but it’s not letting me do that!
Anyway, hope you feel better soon. Merry Christmas and happy holidays !!
Axolotl. When I wrap gifts I lightly write the name of the recipient on the corner of the back of the package in pencil. I add my tags later. I rarely give gifts or just a few and they are all generally cash. I can’t go out shopping because there are so many sick people out, I can’t afford to catch anything. Gift cards are foolish when you can give cash unless you know that party will use the money inappropriately. The past couple of years have been extremely expensive, a new roof and just a month ago a new furnace. A new central air conditioning system coming in the spring, so you understand my predicament. It will be a burden to give gifts particularly when nobody reciprocates. By that I mean, nobody even makes an effort. No, I’m not a witch. I’m kind and generous. I do not save paper nor ribbon. It all goes in the trash. My packages, when I bought actual gifts, all had a different theme each year and were wrapped beautifully. They were all complementary.
Renee darling... Where is your nice paper sliving tool you advocated for us all😢
U are starting to be a drawer QUEEN BIG TIME...😅😅😅
Can't wait to see $14 dollars worth of noise stopping barking it must be a muscle big time...😮😮
