Also, during the holidays while the tree is up when visitors with children come over they can look for the pickle and when they find it they get a little gift like a small bag of holiday candy or something similar.

    our family tradition when decorating the xmas tree is to put on "A Pooh Christmas: Holiday Songs From The Hundred Acre Wood" which is basically all the classic xmas carols but Pooh Bear version lmao (my mum has always loved pooh bear haha)
    we also have the tradition of opening gifts from family on xmas eve night and presents from "santa" on xmas day morning, which came about because my mum is German and celebrated xmas on xmas eve when she was younger but my dad celebrated on xmas day, so the decided to kinda amalgamate the two! its a great tradition that i'll definitely continue with my kids!

    Oh a possible new doll! Oh I am so so so excited!! I was hoping that you do one. My family loves to decorate for Christmas. My whole family, in law, and sometime my best friend and their spouse comes over to decorate the tree. We will play Christmas music and talk about the memories each ornament gives us since most are given as gifts or made by the family. It’s so hard to fit them all on the tree. We also decorate the house with various Christmas nicknacks that we gathered throughout the years. On Christmas eve we celebrate the dogs’ birthday and my sibling and their spouse spends the night. On Christmas my in law and I wear elf hats and my sibling wears a Santa hat while everyone opens presents including the dogs. I will say I am so jealous of your confidence with inking. I dread it since I am so worried about messing up that I make tons of mistakes and whatnot.

    Me and my folks don't have too many traditions, but as the person who cooks the meals, I usually spend at least 2 days before the holiday cooking through the night in preparation. And since I'm a night owl I'm normally alone, but my mom will stay up and be my taste-tester while we watch movies or get caught up on TV shows. It used to be my grandma that stayed up with me, but she passed away about 3 years ago and while the holidays don't feel the same without her, I'm glad my mom took up being my taste-tester.

    My favorite christmas tradition started when I first got buildings and set pieces to make my own christmas village! It started small but there was enough for each member of my family to place one piece they chose wherever they wanted. My village has grown a lot since then and every year I unpack the whole lot, have everyone pick a piece, and at the end when I've got everything else up they can go ham. They can even move buildings and such. Only stipulation is that no one touches my first building (a cute house with a cat in a window). We couldnt put it up this year because there simply isnt room but thats alright. My second favorite (and one I did get to partake in) is watching The Muppets Christmas Carol! Not a unique tradition but one I love all the same. Happy holidays!

    You know what's wild? Just yesterday I was looking at your channel banner and reminiscing on that video you made showcasing your process making it. I remembered when you made it, I thought it was so cool to see you draw all your dolls like that and then make it a banner. Then I thought "Man, I'd really love to see Dollightful draw a bunch of dolls again!" (and of course "I wonder if she'll make a new banner someday?" 😂). Now here we are, a new drawing video, literally the day after I was thinking about my favorite drawing video of yours.

    We have a collection of vinyl! Mom's favorite is a goodyear collection, but it's warped. Elsewise we have Liberace(mom loves him), and Elvis(which I would say we get from my grandma, but my papa also liked him), I have the Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack.
    We all get a sentimental decoration each year, so a new ornament, or music box, or snowglobe.
    It's cool 'cause we've curated this very eclectic collection of ornament, and you can really tell we're all very differnt people. Mom's tree was originally all soft peachy ornaments with spun glass hearts and snowflakes(they reflect light beautifullybut are so fragile), and racing lights! And my sibling always buys sets, and they have a lot of icicles. I have no cohesive theme besides it brings me joy, I have a reindeer which we found with the antlers already knocked off, but I still loved it and wanted it, this year I got some geometric glass shapes in that oil slick multicolored way, and I have some carved wooden cardinals I got for mom last year because she never gets stuff for herself. But, we're going easy on the decorating this year, I mean our big holiday purchase was garland, and pro-tip buy the little boxes, the decorative ones that say like mrs clausesxs bakery, or we have one with just evergreen branches printed on it, but you use them as decoration, then you can store things in them in the off season. We store things in our old popcorn tins too!
    We bake cookies as gifts, which is cool, until everyone else is sick, or working, and I have to bake all 20 ish dozen cookies. We didn’t make as much as we used to, and yes they will eat all the cookies, papa used to hide his in the safe sonthe boys wouldn't steal them all!

I've seen their traveling live groups a couple of times but I'm so glad to see their music is also an important part of other peoples christmas traditions as well considering it holds such a special place in my heart. Im a bit behind on the videos and very excited to watch the 12th day tonight! Have a merry christmas!

    me and my mom have had a tradition every december (usually early to mid december) where we bake things like gingerbread and saffron buns and rolls, and sometimes other christmas treats. we have done it since the year i was born, and we have done it every single year since, not missing a single one in all those 23 years lol.

    As a kid, I was extremely excited about Christmas, and I (allegedly, as I was only 3 at the time) woke my mom up at 4 AM one Christmas because I woke up sooooo early.
    So the rule became "You can open your tiny stocking gifts whenever you want, then you have to wait for sunrise before waking Mom" lol
    As I grew up, it turned from a rule to a tradition, where I would wake up early, open my stocking, then watch the sunrise with a cup of juice and a snack. The taste of apple juice and Christmas cookies is such a nostalgic thing for me lol

    My mom watches white Christmas a million times this time of year, especially while wrapping Christmas presents and I’ve adopted that tradition as well now that I’m an adult

    It's not really a strictly family tradition (tradition that's unique to our family), but in the Philippines, we do Noche Buena which is a feast for the entire family on Christmas Eve as we welcome the 25th! It's almost like New Year's Eve in a sense? I looove Noche Buena because the event fills me with so much warmth and peace, like I can breath a sigh of relief after another long year has passed.

    In my family we have the Christmas meerkats which is a statue of three Christmas meerkats that we put on the windowsill behind our front window every year. Also we have a signature ornament for each sibling. For my sister it's a wooden star that she coloured in when she was a baby, for my brother it's a dinosaur because he's obsessed with them, and for me it's a cheetah. Also we have ornaments with everyone's faces on them and every year we fight over whose face ornament gets to hang the highest in the tree. It's a dominance battle of sorts.

    We have many strange ornaments that my sister and I have made for my parents over the years, mostly when we were very little. Two of my favourite are 1. “The Cyclops Reindeer”: a brown Christmas bell with one googlie eye and sparkly pipe cleaner antlers. And 2. “The Nugget of Purest Blue!”: Literally a very lumpy ball of tin foil covered in blue glitter, I must have made it when I was about 3. I love that my Mum still treasures it, and it still goes on the tree 20 years later. Merry Christmas everyone! ❤

    I don't know if it can be called a tradition, but what we do in my family is that when we dance around the Christmas tree, there is a certain song and when it comes on, we all start running around hand in hand through whole houses and into all rooms it's a lot of fun, especially when your dog also runs along

    My family buys our tree on black friday and it usually goes up about a week later 😂 we put on the Charlie Brown Christmas soundtrack and the first ornament to go onto the tree is the annual Lenox snowflake ornament ❤

    Past few years have been the Secret Santa/Bad Santa and, every chance we (as in myself, my older brother, and our mother) got, we pull up a Pandora Station called the 'Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer' Station. Naturally, we keep count of how many times the song in question comes up XD!
