🥹 that’s so sweet. I love my parents, they did/sacrificed so much for me and I really want to be there for them as they age (dad but also my mam and my step dad! Who I am hoping will get a chance to move closer) xxx
Stoppp every day I look at him I feel like he looks older I just wish I could press pause 😭 They are both at the cutest ages I can hardly handle it! ❤️
I knowww omg we already have such amazing photos of them out playing it’s such a dream garden for kids! That’s why one of the first big spends when we moved in was iron gates! Xx
Your dad's apartment is sooo nice and I'm sure he'll love it and you will love having him there. Very cute seeing you all shopping for Christmas decor. Our tree now has lights already on it, but my mother used to wrap the lights around a hanger using the hanger as a frame. It took a few hangers, but it works really well. I love Caroline Winkler too. Just watched a video of hers last night.
I just introduced my 5 year old sister to the Home Alone movies this week. She loves them but she can't handle Kevin being forgotten by his parents. She was adopted by my parents and has bad issues with anyone being left or forgotten. So I think it's a love/hate thing. Anyway, I love the movies and my sister and I'm glad you guys are watching them, too. :)
100% on the rug quote, trying to co vince my parents of the same, they make all the difference!! Definitely so much better with the rug making it feel like a ✨️home✨️
He needs a rug x I agree with you soft furnishings make everything feel cosier x I’d vote for art above the couch over the mirror I also like making practical things cute as another less cluttery way to add personality. The tea towels/ dish cloths or a cute soap dispenser for dish soap. Also you can totally teach yourself to wallpaper xx
See if you can get your dad to pick a nice bright landscape type print to put over his couch instead of the mirror. You continue to amaze me with your endless talents. I love you, your channel, and your books. Keep being you 💕💚💕💚
As for covering the kitchen wall area. I have a similar situation and I have a super large beautiful walnut cutting board that I simply lean/stand against the ugly spot on the wall. Then you could put a row of live herbs, heavy pottery style fruit bowl, or keep nice olive oil bottles etc in front of it, or nothing at all. I used to use this same tactic to cover an old school telephone jack in my old kitchen. Also, baskets. Big sturdy baskets for big things, little ones for ugly little shit. We live in a 25 ft trailer currently and baskets have been a lifesaver for hiding the ugly in a small space. The baby’s stuff and toys, half opened toilet paper and paper towels, over flow clothes, anything and everything.
I've not been on youtube much so i haven't seen your content in a pretty long while, but wow I am so impressed with what an amazing mother you've become!
My parents did that compeition thing for getting dressed with me. I was always soo slow (am still sometimes :D) when my parents wanted to leave so we did a competiton, who got dressed the quickest. I was rushing and it took me like one minute :D
There's a Andy Warhol exhibition in Dublin at the minute. You should check it out they likely have big posters for his artwork on sale. And you could frame it.
I wasn't allowed to celebrate Christmas growing up, I only started because my ex's family did 6 years ago. Now I don't know if I should/how to celebrate the holiday. Your family tree is so cute
If decorating would bring you joy you totally can and should! You can thrift stuff for cheap and just do what makes you happy and feel cozy! And you can invite and have like a friends-Christmas like a Friendsgiving! There are no rules just Christmas Joy 🎄
If you want you can, there's no rules for celebrating Christmas I personally opt for spending Christmas alone x🎄 Christmas is mainly about Good food Cozy house stuff Candles and fairy lights Warm drinks Cozy clothes (Birth of Jesus if Christian x)
😂😂 every time it’s time to end the video I feel a sudden pressure to top the previous weird ending and I panic and the weirdness is born in the panic! 😂
I had a small, 400 sq ft studio apartment for years. It was a 100 yr old brick building with fake “hardwood” floors, and I wasn’t planning on getting a rug. I was 💯 a no. At first. I was so thrilled to finally have non-carpeted floors (because the carpets got disgusting in my old rental) that the last thing I wanted was a rug. I also am a minimalist who wanted to leave the space as uncluttered as possible to make it bigger. A rug felt like it would just add more clutter/ shrink the room. I was totally against it. I was SO SO SOOO wrong. Without a rug the room was FREEZING in the winter (and this is LA! No snow!). I put insulation strips in the windows and had the radiator blasting and it was still so cold at night. And the room had this weird echo that made watching TV or listening to music unpleasant. And yes it felt big but in a warehouse kinda way. Then after much research I bought a large area rug. And it changed EVERYTHING. I was kinda shocked at how extreme the difference was. (Basically this and air fryers, two trends I was avoiding but regretted not doing sooner). The room was SO MUCH warmer. If a person wants to help with the environment or just save money on heating for gods sake please get a rug. 🙏 Also, the echo was gone. It was like I had upgraded my sound system. That’s how much better everything sounded. And it didn’t shrink the room! By placing the rug in one corner it separated the space into sections, which tricked the brain into thinking there was multiple rooms, and more equaled bigger? I can’t explain but if done right it totally works. Even if you put personal preference, interior design, and “coziness” aside. Getting a rug in a non carpeted room is just a must. Especially with winter coming. I hope your dad changes his mind for his own sake. 😬🙏💚
I love this comment SO MUCH and will absolutely be sending it to my dad to further convince him! 😂❤️ Absolutely found the same thing with echo/sound! Xxxx
@@melaniemurphyofficial I’m so glad 😅 (also wanted to add something I forgot. For warmth factor it should be a thicker, real rug. Not those paper thin cheap pieces that are more about aesthetic, but are being sold everywhere nowadays. If it’s so light it needs to be taped down, it’s not heavy enough to make a real difference. Just in my experience 🤷♀️👍)
I have a island in my current apartment with a breakfast bar on one side. It's a game changer as the storage is so much better. The island has all our pots and pans and because it's a pretty large cupboard, it's easy to see what we have and not have to rummage for one of the less used pot or pan that's been shoved in the back of a small cupboard! And as there's only four of us and we all cook at different times, we don't need a full on dining table. And if all of us are eating, one of us is happy to sit on the sofa, or sit at our desks in our rooms (yet to happen because everyone is on different schedules, but I'm partial to a cup of tea and toast on the sofa in front of sunday morning tv!)
For your prints of a 50/60/70/80’s vibe, cannot recommend enough Projekt 26 highly enough. Super eclectic funky designs, although not framed, I get the standard ones from John Lewis and they’re bang on. Simple black frames do them wonders! You’ll be hard pressed to find other cool bits of history in cool art 👍 As for that funny wee gap on the wall, why not put a wee framed cork board over it - so you can get access if ever needed - and your dad can put pictures on it, to do lists, a wee calendar, which might be good for older age and or keeping track of health things if needed in future 👍 Great video!
@@melaniemurphyofficialI have several at home and they’re so great for adding some colour and interesting things to look at! if you want to see them in a home setting, there is a video on The Modern House channel, where they tour Harriet Williams house, who is one of the founders. It’s cool seeing them in a space.
I love Caroline Winkler too. I always find it funny how UA-cam is such a different experience for different people.. often friends will never have heard of the content I watch and vice versa.
omg this video was just so calming and refreshing and cozy❤ I will leave right now but I’m afraid I will be coming back again for all the weird video endings😂❤️
Does your dad like reading as much as you? I think behind the couch would be a great place for shelves, kinda like Ariel Bissett's office 🥰 but using walls for storage as well
😂😂 hehehe omg the first day I made this, I added that song over the Instagram story lol, ‘Inside’ will never be OUTSIDE of my head because man every single song is 🔥
This isn’t that much smaller than my one bedroom flat. A vote here for an area rug. It makes my living room make more sense and feel cosy. A tip from me if you haven’t thought about this already. Get remote control sockets for all your lamps. I hardly ever put on my ‘big light’ and I’m not wandering round the room looking for lamp switches. Game changer!!
I watched the first 4 episodes of season 6 in a day. I just parked myself on the sofa with tea, then wine. And I was like 'is that it???' but the other episodes are being released later. I just love the betrayal of Prince Phillip; not so much in season 5 and 6 as I just see the see the High Sparrow from Game of Thrones and he's not as funnily arrogant and blunt as Matt Smith and Tobias Menzies. And Erin Doherty was perfect as Princess Anne, her and Prince Phillip were hilarious together!
Oh Matt Smith was fantastic! Just fantastic as always 😍 Absolutely adore him. Really excited for more episodes…not sure why it pulls me in so much, I think it’s a combination of it being based on truth but also just yeah the music, interiors, pacing, cinematography, tension, acting 😍
@@melaniemurphyofficial I’m in USA - we don’t have that 🥰 but when I went to UK in 1985 I remember my host family putting my jeans in the stove to dry!
Ohhh I shared the place in a recent home vlog but will link here! 🥰 A local pottery shop he had loads of these in there all hand made touchdesignceramics.com/
Because your tree is In a small pot it won't grow much as the pot will stunt its growth. If you want it to be bigger either plant it in the ground and pot it Xmas next year or just buy a bigger pot x
Oh man i miss fancy door hinges!! At my place here in France the hinges are kinda built in to the frame and the frame is metal, also makes it almost impossible to change the opening of the door without cutting out anf flipping the whole frame. I also miss fancy light switch covers, the ones here in France are so boring, lol
I have my fancy brass switch plates from summer in a box, still waiting for the electrician to fit them in lol but he’s had more important things to do wiring dad’s extension and our new shed! 🙈 Boring white switches are just so…sad 😭😂
@melaniemurphyofficial I've got a dumb question. In Ireland, when you switch something on and off with a toggle or whatever, is up on and down off? I've noticed here in France they tend to install it down on and up off, and even after 3 years here I'm still not getting it, lol. I've never lived or visited a country that does that, lol, and I lived in Korea for 5 years, lol.
We haven’t invested in anything for the kitchen really…maybe it’s a mental block because we won’t be renovating it for a long time but you are damn right I deserve to spend a bit on things that’ll make cooking easier and quicker! 😂❤
Oh no I keep baked sweet potatoes to mash up for meals so when we are making them for dinner I put on extra. Example sometimes I mash it into Ready Brek for my son which I shared in a reel recently, he eats more veg if it’s hidden in things 😂 If you skip a bit forward you will see my son eating red lentil pasta with tomato sauce, didn’t show any of the baby’s meals in this video but she kinda just eats all day xx
Hey Melanie, writing here because you're continuously ignoring my messages and comments. I understand and agree with your support for innocent Palesteian people in Gaza who are in dire need of help and refuge. I understand that this must hurt even more so as a mother, watching mothers in pain. However, you HAVE CROSSED A LINE. You posting about convicted Palestenians being set free in the hostage deal without: A) Recognizing many of these people, be them young or women, have been imprisoned for stabbing, acting for Hammas etc, and B) Not even mentioning the literal innocent Israeli hostages??? You equating literal convicts of attempted murder to children who were abducted from their home after their parents were murdered in front of them? I expect you to do the work and look this up and CORRECT YOUR HARMFUL MISTAKE. I still hold some respect for you, as I have followed your channel for 10 years (I have unsubscribed due to your recent stories about the Palestenian convicts). I know your heart is probably in the right place, I just hope you don't ignore this. Keep fighting the good fight for human rights across the board
Melanie you are the best daughter in the world your parents raised you well and your dad must be sooo proud of you ❤️❤️
🥹 that’s so sweet. I love my parents, they did/sacrificed so much for me and I really want to be there for them as they age (dad but also my mam and my step dad! Who I am hoping will get a chance to move closer) xxx
Baby Pan is getting so big, he's barely a baby anymore 🥺 Him saying "ho ho ho" was adorable! Also, the Grandad pad looks amazing!
Stoppp every day I look at him I feel like he looks older I just wish I could press pause 😭 They are both at the cutest ages I can hardly handle it! ❤️
That ending couldn’t have been more perfectly weird 💚
😂😂😂❤
Your children are gonna have such magical childhood playing in that garden!
I knowww omg we already have such amazing photos of them out playing it’s such a dream garden for kids! That’s why one of the first big spends when we moved in was iron gates! Xx
Your tacky tree is beautiful 😍 It's nice to see this on UA-cam, mine is a bit tacky too but it's old and magical ❤🎉
Tasteful trees get a no from me! If it’s not tacky, it ain’t IT 🥹😂💖 The more shit on there the better it’s so nostalgic! Ahh! Xxxx
hahahah the ending. I just love how much fun you both have. wonderful to see

100 % agree on the rug situation. Made such a difference in our small appartment
I just introduced my 5 year old sister to the Home Alone movies this week. She loves them but she can't handle Kevin being forgotten by his parents. She was adopted by my parents and has bad issues with anyone being left or forgotten. So I think it's a love/hate thing. Anyway, I love the movies and my sister and I'm glad you guys are watching them, too. :)

Ahhhhh I love Caroline! It’s the best to find out my favorite UA-camrs like each other.
She’s one of my all time favourites, I’m a proper fan girl 🙈❤️
I looove the tacky Christmas tree! We also do a tacky one at home- it’s so fun and personal!
Is the music when you're shopping from polar express? its so beautiful!! So much love to all the fam
It’s from premium beat dot com! It’s where I buy music licenses! So I’m not sure but it’s stunning 😍 x
See if you can get your dad to pick a nice bright landscape type print to put over his couch instead of the mirror.

So cute going Xmas shopping with the kiddos
I am absolutely loving this time of year even more than usual now that I have the kiddos 🥹 Seeing them experience things for the first time! So magic!
I love The Santa Clause so much 😭💚 So much heart warming nostalgia
Would you believe this is my first year seeing it!? I feel like I really missed out not seeing it as a kid! 😭😭 Xx
This is so cute, lovely video.
Aweee, thank you 🥹🥰❤️

Christmas is mainly about
Good food
Cozy house stuff
Candles and fairy lights
Warm drinks
Cozy clothes

How did celebrating with your ex’s family look/what did you enjoy most about it? ❤
Why were you not allowed to celebrate Christmas when you were a kid? 😢
Oh god I adore you and Caroline ❤
I too got the same obsession with the Royal Family, went to the crown to mini docs to interviews😂 my partner also had the same reaction as Thomas 😂
I'm living for your video endings 🤣
😂😂 every time it’s time to end the video I feel a sudden pressure to top the previous weird ending and I panic and the weirdness is born in the panic! 😂
This sweater is everything ❤

Yeah honestly I can’t imagine going back to a bed after sleeping on the floor for nearly 4 years now (due to cosleeping!)
Love this cosy video ❤
I honestly love your weird video endings 😂
😂😂 glad to hear it as every time I worry I am going to haemorrhage followers 😂
Your jumper is gorgeous! Where's it from?
Hi Melanie 🤗 such a lovely wholesome video 😍 can you tell me where you got your personalised engagement Christmas tree ornament?

We're you a Sims player? I think you were. I'm positive my obsession with area rugs started with Sims 3.
You have a ’ljusstake’ (the candle light in the window)! Is that common in ireland?
I hope you and your family are doing well Mel. ❤
Ah that’s so sweet! We are indeed, we’ve come out the other end of a lot of sickness and we’re all getting excited for Christmas 🥹❤️
It looks like a normal sized house to me, like a bungalow, not tiny at all. Maybe it doesn't come accros the right size via video?
That means we are succeeding! 😍 In designing it to make it look bigger! It’s only 40msq it’s all we could get planning for xx
👍👏🥳
Does anyone know where the pants are from? They are so cool!
hi Mel 🥰🥰 loved this video, but I'd love captions on your videos too if possible, the auto generated ones aren't always accurate 💚💚💚
had to look up what a hot press was
What is it I’m so confused
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 is that an Irishism!?!?! Nooo…what else do people call it?
@@melaniemurphyofficialairing cupboard!

Right!?!?! 🙈🙈 I was randomly crying about Diana one day and I realised I’d gone too far lol she died when I was like 7 or 8 😅

Hey Melanie where is your elf house candle from?
Ohhh I shared the place in a recent home vlog but will link here! 🥰 A local pottery shop he had loads of these in there all hand made touchdesignceramics.com/
that tree definitely needs a bigger pot 😊
Don't feel weird for sleeping on the "floor". Many people do it, we do it! I'm so used to it now it will be weird to sleep on the real bed. 😀
FYI don’t store tomatoes in the fridge, keep them out just like other fruits, they will retain their flavour sooo much more!!!
Omg no way! Amazing tip! Thank youuu! ❤
Big ass mirror or feature clock above your da's couch
Because your tree is In a small pot it won't grow much as the pot will stunt its growth. If you want it to be bigger either plant it in the ground and pot it Xmas next year or just buy a bigger pot x

your daughter's face is visible in the car (around the 17-18 minute mark). might want to fix that!
