    I've never been more thankful for Kathleen. I've got a cold and I can't thrift (thanks for the water reminder), so I'm 100% living vicariously though this entire video. This video has a vibe I have decided to call "chaotic cozy," which sounds like a D&D alignment Kathleen would definitely have (and also me too probably.)

    I'm a winter person, and it's so sad that so many people hate this season. I think winter is so unique with long darkness and how everything gets slower and quieter. It's given me a feeling of peace. Regardless, I love your videos and hope you have a good time during the holiday season❤

    I met Jan Brett, author & illustrator of The Mitten (and many more equally delightful books). She signed a book for my mom, who had been a librarian before Alzheimers made her have to retire, and Jan Brett was one of her favorite authors. Mom died 6 years ago this past July. The holidays aren't the same without her. Thank you for mentioning The Mitten- i hadn't thought about that night in a long time.

    Super cozy! The little round knit house (crochet house?) made me remember the Christmas items my Nana would make with coffee cans and yarn. The easiest ones, which we also did in school, was wrapping cans that had both sides open with yarn from top to bottom all around, and you could put Christmas cards around the yarn and it'd make a decoration all on its own.

    last weeks video inspired me to make decorations for the house but we were gonna be just my mom and me this year so I thought that it wasn't necessary. but today I asked my friends if they would come over and now I'm hosting a new year's celebration for the first time in my life suuuper excited and definitely will try and do similar paper decorations I think yours looked so cute

    The tree ornament at 9:00 is most likely handmade from capiz shell, probably from the Philippines. They are generally fragile, but the metal edging makes this one more durable. Beautiful find! (I used to work at a fair-trade shop where we sold very very similar items made from capiz shell)

    I wish I'd known about your channel when we were cleaning out my Grandma's house because I could've mailed you boxes and boxes of Department 56 Holiday Houses. She had over 40 of these things along with all the little ceramic people and tiny trees etc. etc. I kept two (because I only have so much space in my life) and donated the rest.
    Hopefully another thrifty goblin found them and is decorating with big smiles on their face right now.

    I would give you a 8 for coziness. You need some fun lap blanket on your couch. My favorite is the green crochet cookie jar. Definite keeper. Also, true story. I went into my local thrift and immediately spied from across the room, a gorgous tan aran cable knit wool cardigan sweater. As I got closer though I saw why someone gave it away. They had clusmily tried to cut the buttons off and cut the actual yarn and the placket was unraveling in the worst way and huge holes where the buttons used to be. It looked new, no piling or signs of wear and was a really good brand and a great oversized mens XXL. I brought it home and watched some Bookhou videos on darning and actually managed to repair it with tan worsted yarn I found plus sewed on 7 new vintage buttons. When you button it up you cannot tell it had a serious kerfuffle going on underneath (now made stable and less noticeable with the darning). My husband immediately claimed it as his own...as he should, since he look sgreat in it, but I will burrow as needed. I thanked the thrift gods abundantly. Happy holidays!

    Silly hostess story. A woman hosting a big party spiffed up the guest bathroom and pinned a note to her kids "DON'T use these towels!" At the end of the party she was cleaning up and in the bathroom she saw the forgotten note was STILL pinned to the towels. No one had used them. I'm from a big family and we all agree none of us qualifies to use "guest" towels. Those are for mysterious guests, wherever they may be.
