Beautiful lady, you create delightful wonders that make me feel like a child again despite my old age. Thank you very much and I wish you beautiful holidays. Małgorzata from the city of Poznań in Poland
Wow Miriam. This video hits differently for me than the other videos. In this video, I could feel more of the villagers character and personality. I felt more passion being displayed with these entries. Having watched all categories, this one really touched me the most. I'm blown away with what I've seen here today. Every single village since the very first video looks amazing to me, but I really enjoyed the entries in this video the most. There is so much feeling in each of the villages shown in this video. Congratulations to everyone that participated in the entire contest. I've seen so many beautiful villages and some great talent. It's been an amazing journey. I'm proud to have been a part of it all. Miriam thank you again for the opportunity. You are such a beautiful person and greatly appreciated. Good luck to everyone and have a Merry Christmas 2021😘👍💕💕🎄🎁
I feel the same way! So many beautiful builds, creativity, and talent. Everyone should be very proud at what they created because each one is so lovely and special. Thank you so much for the beautiful compliment, I really appreciate it!
OMG!!! Creativity at its finest!!! You must feel proud on this one Miriam. This also challenges you to start thinking for new designs/ideas for next year cause I am sure that many people are looking forward to see this and to also get new ideas to recreate. Your channel has definitely fulfilled its purpose!!! No doubt about that one. Your a blessing, Miriam. Keep inspiring your followers with your artistry💟💟
Hello Ina, Thank you so very much, that is so sweet of you. Yes, I do feel so proud of everyone and I just love to see everyone’s creativity through their pieces. It has blessed my soul and I am thankful. God Bless You.
Once again, so many great villages and lots of creative folks. I’m curious to know how those large villages are stored. Great job to all the contestants!
I am so glad to come across your channel. This year was the first time I actually put something together with a few houses and pieces my brother gave me. Even though I did not always follow your tutorials, you gave me the inspiration. I actually surprised myself with the results. Thank you so much because I had so much fun putting my little village together. Already thinking of additions I want to built next year,
Oh and I loved #3 overall, 12 and 16 were great 18's & 29;s water scenes were superb, #23 great waterfall! The circus and zoo themes were fun to look at! I want to see #36's WHOLE village. I loved the jungle cruise portion of it! Everyone has inspired me.
Thank you, Miriam and Dewan, for showing all of the entries of all 4 categories! I know the time and effort involved in such an undertaking as this! Special thanks go to every contestant who enter the competition, every one of you deserve a round of applause. Also, thank you judges for your work in helping make this Holiday Contest a tremendous success! MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL!
This is my first year with Xmas villages. I made a complete mess. I didn’t take the one minute to place the styrofoam back into the lemax box, now I have a sea of styrofoam with no idea what box to use. Then I can’t reach some of the animated pieces cause they are at the center of the five tables I used. I made a lot of mistakes. I should’ve plugged in all the adaptors when I had the chance. But still I love it and so does lexy(my six yr old granddaughter )
Hi Miriam, I know you have to be so proud aftering seeing these videos. There are some amazing builds. So impressed with all the talent. Lots of inspiration to be had. What an incredible journey this has been for you and all of us. This channel has grown so much and is filled with such love and creativity. Can't wait to see what the new year holds. Looking forward to seeing you final few videos for the year. Just make sure you're giving yourself plenty of down time. You most definitively deserve it. Dewan too. All the best to you all for a joyous Christmas.
I truly am so proud of everyone. There are soooo many that I absolutely love but I am going to reserve my comments so I don’t potentially bias the judges. I love that even though the channel is growing so much, it still feels like a big family. Thank you so much! I took almost all of today off and had a great time relaxing and eating. 😂🤣. I made lots of yummy Christmas cookies with the kids.
I used to work for a Dept. 56 gift shop. I thought I was pretty good at assembling and accessorizing my villages. But Miriam's attention to detail puts me to shame! Cutting out the foam to bury the cords is something I will try. I generally just run them behind the houses and cover them with snow. I have never really mastered "Water" either. So I will be studying your videos to help me in that area. I also like your abundant use of florals and greenery!
Hello Karen, Trains are such a personal preference but I will say this. I have an HO scale train and I think it is entirely too small for my village. The next train I but will probably be an O scale.
@@MiriamsManner thank you so much! I’m new to the panoramic village setup. My daughter and I are going to do it this year. Got all my villages out yesterday. You are so talented and helpful! Thanks for sharing your talent. You’re a blessing!

I wrap my pieces with lots and lots of newspaper and plastic wrap. I think I have 4 tubs now to fit everything.
I store my large pieces on shelves in my closet. If there is snow or ground cover on it, I cover it with brown packing paper.
So many amazing jobs... Miriam thank you for you give all this opportunity thank you for your hard work on the videos... you did amazing job...
You are very welcome and thank you!
What a superb job!! Thanks for dedicating so much time! Merry Xmas all!

The learning curves are great too because we know what mistakes not to repeat. I hope you still had a lot of fun. 😀
Great first year!

Hello Rhoda, wow, that is such a huge compliment. Thank you so very much! 😁
What size and type of train works best with Lemax houses?
