  • 🌱 A cozy day inside and decorating with Chris for the holiday season. We didn't have room for a Christmas tree, so we decided to just use the big Dracaena reflexa.. it's interesting, at least lol.

    Now that it's your first Christmas in this apartment, it's really coming together as a home. You and Chris seem super comfortable and fully acclimated to your new apartment with all the decorations! I love the Charlie Brown style Christmas tree with your Dracaena Reflexa :) As always, keep up with the hard work decorating!

      @@jujuuu1 sry, I thought that they had only moved out around a year ago, turns out it was more like a year and a half..... I just thought it was their first Christmas, since they had never done a video like this b4 :>

    Yes it’s cute 🥹🥹🥹
    I can’t believe it’s your first Christmas with Theo! It seems like he’s been here forever 💕 ahahaha when he chewed on his stocking 😂 I love your decorating. I don’t decorate (long story), so I’m living through your decorating.
    Edit; I think it does look like a Christmas tree!

    It looks so good! I think not going with a traditional Christmas tree was a good move since this really suits your style/is just so on brand with your love for plants:) it’s also unique and really pretty

    Benji and Chris look for a Christmas ornament with 2022 on it. This year will be a momento of your first Christmas without roommates. I have done this over time, and each one is a reminder of something special. The first year I did this I found a silver bell in an estate sale! It's also fun to look for each year. YES, IT'S SO CUTE!!

    Such lovely and peaceful video. The paper houses are so lovely. Using what a plant you already have makes the most sense instead of getting a tree to take up more room than you have. I'm glad you decided to enjoy your trip and live in the moment. So important for selfcare.

    Oh, Benji, Chris & Theo, thank you for this lovely Christmas decorating video! I loved those little paper houses you put together! Also, using your dracaena for your Christmas tree (I never liked the idea of a traditional dead cut tree in my home) tried the Norfolk pines, but they don’t live past the season since I moved to drier climate. You inspired me to get out my Christmas decorations and decorate my plants! 😊❤

    this feels like the coziest thing (-: I really love the holidays and everything that comes with it so this holds a very nostalgic place in my heart. also second the opinion on smells being the epitome of what grounds this time of year-pine, juniper, cranberry, cookie dough, cinnamon are smells that feels most holiday-esque

    I think the decorations look so pretty and “homey”. The lighting from the tree and the village houses is so welcoming and warm, makes me want to cozy up on the sofa with a coffee and watch a Christmas movie. The stocking are beautiful. Enjoy your first Christmas with just the 3 of you ❤

    Your tree and decorations are adorable, just like the 3 of you. Next year maybe check out lights marketed as "fairy lights" that are very small, yet bright, and on thinner wire. They won't weigh down the branches as much. But I love your tree! Happy holidays to you! Enjoy this special time. I so enjoy your videos but love that you sometimes feel being present in the moment is more important than vlogging. It shows how much you value your friends, family and each other. Theo is just the cutest!!!
