  • In tonight's video I am making the Liberty Christmas Tree for your Box in 2022
    I started earlier in the year and when my family visited in the summer, I got help to sew the brown paper packets from John, Anna, Owen and Rita - my boys and their wives! It all got a little chaotic! So if your Christmas Tree is in a packet with slightly wonky stitches, you'll know it was one of those speedy ones! Thanks boys!
    Here you will find all the information you need if you are interested in ordering a Last Homely House Christmas Box 2022. They will be on sale in my shop on 30th October at 7pm GMT
    www.thelasthom.... If you would like to ensure that you get a box, please go straight to the shop at 7PM on Sunday (30th of October) and don't watch the video first.
    Last year, someone on the Instagram Arm of The Lime Green Sofa won a free Box . This year someone from my Patreon Channel will be the lucky recipient. Please note I will only ever contact people directly and never via an app! So Patrons at every level will be in with a chance!
    / scheduled

    I create extra content for my Patrons and you can check that out here.

    Watching you and Anna contentedly working away on your tree packaging has really brightened my day. I left my job as a full time primary teacher five years ago as it was getting too much with my MS. Watching your videos has been a true highlight of my days at home alone. You have truly made me feel that living a quiet life filled with little tasks done with love is a life filled with value. You have inspired me to create my own Christmas cards each year and to make feltboard stories for a teacher friend. I’ve made three books by following your instructions. I’ve collected some fabric and am almost ready to begin some sort of quilting project. I putter and rest and am quietly content. And you are in a large part responsible for this peace I have found with my quieter life at home. I have just wanted so much to tell you that but have only recently started commenting. Thank you.

      April, Marilyn here.
      I agree with you. I am also retired and I am fairly new on the LGS and I literally watch Kate’s videos night and day . I find inspiration , contentment and peace and GREAT comfort in her quiet gentle ways. She really draws one in to make you feel part of her cherished family. I have started making small projects inspired by her and even have adopted the colors pink and green! I try to recreate a version of TLHH in my daily life now and corners of my home. So welcome to the “SOFA” !
      You , like myself, have stumbled onto a most treasured experience; to know our Kate.

To think this very kind person who never met me packaged each special item with so much care and thoughtfulness still brings tears to my eyes. I am happy for each person who is able to receive a box this year.

I’ll be looking for a new sewing machine. I make a different ornament every year to send in family packages and this will be perfect. I have tons of rumpled packing paper that will make perfect wrapping paper. Instead of sewing I’ll stamp them with a potato stamp. I’m gonna use pinking shears on the felt outer edge.

But I have listened to him so many, many times. Our family wore out its cassette tapes, and then bought them again in CD's, and now digitally!! If I could hear Stephen Fry, it would make it new again.

    Wonderful idea! I always make a new ornament for family members every year and you just solved my problem this year!

    Oh yes! I like things in stages as well. It’s the Henry Ford way. The car assembly line. I make about 75 book bags for Operation Christmas Child each year….the ministry of Franklin Graham sending shoe boxes around the world to children with the love and messages of Jesus. I cut ten at a time. Cut the handles, etc. Listening to a book, or music, or just the birds outside. It’s like meditation. Love those Liberty prints and the sweet little trees.

    I can spend quite a few hours watching a Turkish woman baking, cooking, and preserving traditional food from her region! I also love to watch cookies being decorated with Royal icing. - such creativity/artistry!

    This is such a beautiful idea 🥰 I just watched the candle holders too. My kids are only little but I feel so inspired now to create Christmas boxes with them for our family and friends ❤️

    I always find that "strange" or "weird" people are much more interesting to know. And listen to. Different is good.
