How many of us sniffed the candle when Helen put it up to the camera 🤣🤣🤣I have seen the wrapping idea, but I had already done my gifts, so will try that next year and for birthday's. When you are tying your ribbon, to get a nice bow, use the lower ribbon that comes out of the knot to make your first loop. A dressmaker told me always remember B for Bottom for Bow. Makes a perfect bow each time.
Once my kids got to teens and were supposedly bored by the whole Christmas I had to get inventive to get them excited . One of the tricks I used was I wrapped all the gifts with no tags so they shook and felt all they wanted but couldn’t figure out if what they asked for was there. Christmas morning I told them what colour paper their gifts were wrapped in, another year I switched tags so they were very confused. I wrapped a small jewelry sized box for each and told them that was their best gift, they figured I bought them jewelry instead of the big things they’d asked for. Christmas morning they were told where to look for the actual gift. Then the final year they were all living at home I did a treasure hunt sending them all over the place outside and in to find a cache of their gifts locked in the boot of the car which I’d lined with pretty wrapping paper. It was as much fun thinking up new foiles as it was watching them figure them out. Each year they would try to guess what trick Santa ( us) might pull on them. Hope you get a day of rest now you’re shopped out and before the cooking/ baking begins. 🙋🏼♀️
Helen I think you are just an amazing woman,I really do. Your home is stunning, love love love your decorations and I have never known anyone so organised,you just blow me away honestly. I wish my brain worked like yours. When you said about Rob's party for one hundred people I was like how??? This woman is SUPERWOMAN!!! All your prep, shopping, cooking, hosting wow Helen all I can say is amazing. You put so much thought in to everything you do. Love your videos in fact I think you should have your own T.V. show, showing people like me how to do it all. And by the way loved those shorter dresses on you in your last vid, really suited you and looked very comfy as well as glam. perfect for Christmas Day. take care from the Cork Woman,living in Eastleigh xxx
On Christmas eve i try to get to my parents grave.My brother lives in Scandinavia so its up to me to look after our parents grave. Then i feed the donkey on my lane.We have a close relationship. I walk while everyone around me run.Its my favourite day of the season. Calm and bright. 🎄 Helen the "Bull Dog" range is very pure.My don loves the facial wash.I say this because i didn't realise how good it was.No harmful chemicals. I was quite surprised.
@@Helenmaryjo Instead of the bows you could add smiley faces, like a family or use the ribbons like bow ties. All the different sizes in different outfits perhaps. Now the ideas are flowing the sparks are ignited 🤣🤗
You do make me laugh! I love that you went ‘rogue with your present buying……great ideas which I think the children will love! Love the gift wrap idea too Helen, thanks for sharing x
Hi Helen what a lovely way to gift wrap, I’ve done all mine so will save that hack for next year . Thank you so much for all your great vlogs which I’ve enjoyed throughout the year you are like a friend that you drop in and see and always feel uplifted when you leave. Wishing you and your lovely family a wonderful Xmas 😘xxxx
Loved the video Helen, wrapping was good to see! Your teal coloured dish was Beautiful. I don’t know how you do what you do, you are amazing! All your guests you’re having on Christmas Eve, Christmas and Boxing Day! You deserve your holiday! Thank you! xx
Helen I’m just making those bags from wrapping paper and surrounded like you trying to fill the kids stockings didn’t realise how much I’ve got them Do you think those rugs would work on my stone floors? We have underfloor heating so they don’t need to be thick anyway have a lovely Christmas x
Oh Helen. Don’t we all work so hard for Christmas. I’m always glad when Christmas Eve arrives. 5 pm the shops are closed and I can relax lol. My pantry is bursting at the seams as yours must be,too ha ha It will all be well worth it. Love the little bags for the presents. Shame I’ve done all mine. Will have a try thou for so I can do it for future wrapping. Thanks as always Helen. Look forward to seeing your mum on Friday.
Love the shopping. You really do give some great ideas for gifts. Those bits & bobs for the children just great. I bet they get a lot of pleasure and fun out of them. Those wrapping bags are a great idea. Think your poinsettia could do with a drink, it's beginning to look how I feel at the moment - knackered 🤣🤣 Love the bobble bowl 👍👍
Loved the gift wrap bags. I have just watched busy bee mare with her wrapping ideas but I have just finished wrapping my presents which don’t look half as good as yours and marees. I love the candle. Sainsburys has some really good offers on at the moment. Have a love,y Christmas Helen.
You’ve got some great stocking fillers there Helen, love the ‘rogue’ fizz 😂 love the gift wrap ideas too! Looking forward to seeing you and your Mum later 😍 xxx
Happy Christmas and merry new year to you and Dean ❤️ in your new home. Looks like the type of place for rescue dog 🐶 just saying 😂 Hehe x Funny old year for me lots of heartache but looking to Christmas snuggling in the sofa with my dogs and cat (and other family 😂) and 2024 my aim is a calm chilled people focused person….love the vids xxx your never mundane it’s relatable!
Wish I'd seen that wrapping tip sooner Helen . Just finished all my Xmas wrapping and some of the awkward shaped ones would have been so much easier.. Great stocking filler tips too. Love your videos . Wishing you and your family a very Merry Xmas 🎄🎁🥂 xx
Hi Helen. Great shopping haul. Some lovely stocking fillers. I love cheese with Xmas cake. I get some weird looks when I offer cheese with cake. I have a feeling it's a Yorkshire thing, I could be wrong. I've seen the wrapping videos and it looks so nice. I am struggling with wrapping the big tubs of sweets. Just can't get the hang of the gathering right xx
If you put it on its side and then wrap into a cylinger and then snip the paper down the sides, if that makes sense you can just tuck it onto the tub and tape. Probably sounds more difficult than it is. xx
Hi Helen, Just going to wrap some awkward shaped presents using your method. Loved your haul and your beautiful bowl to yourself too. Looking forward to Friday at 8🏴xx
Helen I wish I had your patience , I just put my gifts in those bags that you just tie, job done, you make such an effort with every thing you do ,it really shows with the finishing touches, thank goodness your there showing us how easy it can be, always happy to watch you ❤
Hi Helen. I always enjoy seeing Christmas gifts and your wrapping technique was so impressive. Teenagers are the most difficult to cater for I think but you’ve bought some lovely presents for Billy and Hattie. It must be a relief to come to the end of the gift buying and now onto the catering but you are so well organised that I’m certain you have it all arranged! ❤️🎄🎅
Hi Helen, you’ve certainly done your grandchildren proud, my mum used todo all that with stocking. Love it. Absolutely love your wrapping technique will definitely have a go at that. Thanks. Xxx
You could make your pork shoulder into pernil,which is delicious,the super in my building is Puerto Rican,and invites me to Christmas Eve dinner,and always makes that dish.Very Merry Christmas to you all.
Hi Helen, as usual great ideas, I have just returned from shopping trying to find something for my daughter that’s different, no joy our high street is so poor for choice sadly, then I saw that bowl but too late now, so if you could tell us where it’s from I might get it for next Christmas because it’s lovely.
I bought it here: deargracehomeinteriors.com/products/naples-bobble-bowl-5-colours?variant=41404918399166¤cy=GBP&gclid=Cj0KCQiA4Y-sBhC6ARIsAGXF1g4Yy7WIiuLFXdknEHAXovoJD5POQ2VuIhuvJTQeRV7UpawgZeTM32oaAsz7EALw_wcB xx

Loved the wrapping tips! My gift to my favourite vloggers is to watch the insufferable ads for all the holiday period. (I detest ads!!) 😩😂
Haha, that's why I pay for premium, I'm too impatient. That is my 'monthly' gift to myself! xx

Love your wrapping tips! 🤩 Thanks!
My pleasure xx
The parcels are handy for standing up, take up less room than flatter packages. They would look lovely all under the tree. I love your bowl.
Thank you. yes they do. xx
@@Helenmaryjo Instead of the bows you could add smiley faces, like a family or use the ribbons like bow ties. All the different sizes in different outfits perhaps. Now the ideas are flowing the sparks are ignited 🤣🤗
I would like the same bowl in black or white -great to see the actual size of it !
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all xx
Thank you and to you xx
