    I love what you did! Your home is beautiful! Most importantly, I love that you DIDN'T rush out to buy cheap, trendy decor made outside the USA (like so many people think is necessary) but used your own talents and gifts to decorate your home. Your family will love the coziness this Christmas. Absolutely lovely!💕

      @@sunflowerbrown5823 I agree! It appears that some people equate buying cheap, natural-looking decor with holiday happiness........but that's just not true at all! Hey, what happened to real trees, real wreaths and the real scent of pine boughs throughout a home? Why did all of that get pushed aside for natural-LOOKING plastic stuff made in China? I'm not buying it!! Nope!

    So peaceful Mary ~ I love the pillow with the fur edging. How pretty the tree collar looks with your decor.
    I have used a softer green paint for Christmas , then used the deep green vinyl for my wording. But I had the deep green on hand. Love the shade of green paint you got. I think it is the perfect Christmas Green…if there is such a thing. I guess in the eyes of the beholder right?
    I love candleholders made out of spindles! The mantle looks wonderful. Love the layering of empty frames too.
    Perfectly done in my humble opinion 🌲

    Mary you should sell diy kits for your items,bird boxes,candle sticks and alike,literally put the bits in a box and sell them unfinished for the buyers to affix themselves so they still get to make up the items but don't have the hassle of hunting & cutting all the wood.
    You could also sell diy candle & soap kits.., Sewing packs with all the bits in and the buyer again just stiches it together, so many things you could do in the diy box form & i think it would be great. 😁 your home looks wonderful and festive.
    Why don't you just re pack the arms on the sofa and change out the foam in the actual cushions,it would be very easy to do and a more budget friendly option.

    Dear Mary, you are such an inspiration. We have a camphor laural tree in our garden, I thought I could cut some discs and do the same. I don't have a cricket or anything like it but I thought I could paint snow flakes (free hand) and either give them as presents and / or hang them from our tree or leave them lying about as decorative pieces. Can't wait to get out there and check out for branch falls. Of course, we are in rural Queensland, Australia and summer is scorching hot and it never, ever snows here. Stay safe. Luci

    Mary, everything is so beautiful--this is my favorite furniture placement in your living room. My favorite thing about your channel is you don't use cheap, Made in China junk in every single thing you do like so many other channels. All of that junk breaks and ends up in our landfills. I cannot understand why people (mostly women!) do that. Sorry for the rant, I'm just sad that people don't appreciate this beautiful planet that God gave us. Merry Christmas to everyone here and to you and your family Mary.

    You are so talented my dear! You always talk about your things being several years old, but you always get them to look amazing! I love your thriftiness, and your ability to make your things look new again. You always amaze me. Just so charming! Thank you for sharing!
