@theelliotthomestead, where can I get the Bible verses on a string? They look like they are from Luke so I assume they are the Christmas story. I don’t have a printer. Did they come already printed?
Thank you for inviting us into your home. Not only is it so comfy and cozy (not just at Christmas time)and your family so unpretentious and relatable, you are always so warm and gracious (even when sharing a trying day with us)! I'm sure I'm not the only one who appreciates that: in the crazy, cold world we live in these days, it is a pleasure to still see kind people and traditional families not caught up in the madness...
Stuart’s playing at the end was just beautiful! “Lo, How a Rose Ere Blooming” is one of my all-time favorite carols. ❤ Merry Christmas, Elliott family!
I so appreciate that your tree is family oriented. It’s not just a “magazine picture” tree. Christmas is about Christ and family. The tree should have funky kids ornaments and memories ❤️
I always love your posts but this one especially warmed my heart. A huge thank you to Stuart for the lovely guitar music. At times I could even smell the slight hint of wood smoke from the stove. It was as if I was in the room with you and your son. Your family is such a great example of a life full of love and wholesome goodness. Thank you for sharing a part of your life with us. Sending you blessings and love as you enjoy this magical season.
I love everything about this. The way you and Stuart put together your videos is so beautiful and Christ exalting. Can’t wait to watch more of your videos this upcoming year!
I look forward to this video every year. You are an inspiration. Doing things simply, but doing them with wholeheartedly and with beauty. It’s worshipful. Glory to God.
I love your cottage, so beautifully decorated. It feels like home. I would choose a cottage such as yours over any elegant mansion hands down, any day.
lol ...before the video ended, I said to myself "the only thing missing from the video is Stu playing some music" and then he popped up. God bless your family. I so enjoy the love, passion, and purpose that radiates from your videos.
I put off watching this because I was worried it was just going to feel like an onslaught of everything Christmas, but I'm so glad I did watch it. It seems, though your style is still entirely your own, that you are refining it over the years so you seem happier and more at ease and your home does as well. A breath of fresh Christmas air. 🎄
Shaye, Stuart and Family, wishing you all a very Merry Christmas! You're home is generous in size. Its your beautiful outdoor scenery that is an expansive view. What a beautiful view. I would just sit in front of the window. I like the idea of a more simply decorated Christmas and have done the same. Stu's positive facial expression after a sip demonstrates that the new espresso maker makes a deliciously tasting brew. Enjoy some rest.
Спасибо за приглашение в ваш дом! ❤ Я живу в далëкой, заснеженной сейчас России, но благодаря интернету я побывал у вас в гостях, за много тысяч километров, послушал прекрасную музыку! У вас душевный, атмосферный, уютный дом, любимый мой стиль интерьера, сохраняющий такие прекрасные старинные вещи! ❤
Thank you for sharing your warm and inviting home. I love an eclectic and meaningful Christmas, and you captured it beautifully. Stuart playing guitar was lovely. I still watch the video from a couple Christmases ago when he played. I think it is my favorite video of yours… praying blessings over your Christmas celebration.
This reminds me of all the work we put into our homes over the years. That and raising our children. God bless you and your family. The best thing about this house is the love it contains for the Lord and your family.❤
Merry Christmas to one of my favorite RUclips families! We share moments of time together although your unaware Times of your inspiration and all truthful stories you share. A home is a working vessel where it holds for us all that is special. Enjoy the blessing He bestows not only today but on all your tomorrows! Blessings from Ringle Wisconsin.
Thank you for the tour and the beautiful music. Your home has a feel to it that is so comforting, like a warm, cozy drink, and a fresh baked bread. I love it's perfect imperfection. Merry Christmas and many blessings.
Absolutely beautiful ending to this video. I truly felt the spirit of Christmas as your husband played. And the images of your home at night with the fire going and the glittering Christmas lights... I hadn't felt the spirit of Christmas until your video. There was a sweet sacredness to the ending. Thank you so much for filling my heart with peace.
Lo, How a Rose E're Blooming... not a well know song, but my favorite...I knew what he was playing within the first few notes... such a memorable and nostalgic song for me...brings me right back to Christmas as a child...Thankyou.
Oh what a beautiful video. Stuart’s guitar at the end was simply wonderful and very touching. What a lovely cottage and what a lovely family. Merry Christmas
Enjoyed the tour and glad to hear Stuart play wonderful. I have been watching for a long time and has been a while since he played that I remember. I hope I have not missed any.
Absolutely beautiful home, family, and music. Important - please move those 2 chairs far away from your wood stove as it would only take a moment for them to catch on fire. Probably 4-6’ away would be best or ask your wood stove place. We heat with wood as well. So cozy. God bless you all.
You have a gift for creating beautiful cozy spaces. And the guitar playing was so soothing and peaceful. Thank you for inviting us into your home. Merry Christmas to you and yours.🎄
Such a beautiful Christmas video filled with the true meaning of Christmas. Your cozy cottage was filled with light, warmth and love of family. Stuart's masterful guitar playing was perfectly wonderful. Thank you for sharing your holiday home. May you all feel the warmth of God's love this blessed season.
I just found your channel and it's quickly become one of my favorites! I love the little 'prayer flags' with Biblical scritures from the Book of Luke, how original! Please do more of these house tours, and show us your kitchen and pantry. You truly have the best farmhouse style decor of anyone, without it looking new or modern, it's very authentic. I'm going to watch this video over and over again!
As always, this was absolutely beautifully filmed, edited and narrated…and Stuart’s music was an extra special treat! It all really set the tone of a cozy festive home filled with the true joy of Christmas. Thank you! ❤
Watching this esp the end I was praying for the Elliot family to be blessed for providing not only entertainment but relaxing videos and environment for us and their children. God bless you all Elliot family esp mama Shea.
I always enjoy your Christmas video and especially hearing Stewart play his guitar. I was wondering if he is the one playing the guitar during your regular posts as well? Merry Christmas to you and you family.
Very beautiful home that feels warm, inviting and uncluttered which brings peace. “The church’s one foundation is Jesus Christ our Lord” was my father’s favorite song over 60 years ago…I loved hearing it played by Stuart on the guitar. 🥰
The smiles and sweet gentle sparkles in your eyes in the photos you shared are heartwarming…as well as your glowing face while in the kitchen! Looking forward to a 2024 video reminiscent of past videos where you make coffee for each other…I think many of us share a coffee maker journey😊but not romanticized as you do and do so well!
Lady!!!!! Alas, you have your much deserved bedroom and en suite bathroom!!!! Yazzzzzzz gurrllll!!! So happy for you!! And a bedroom fireplace? What?? Yazzzzz!!!!!!! Enjoy!!!
So beautiful. I just love your house tour videos. You have a wonderful home and family. God bless from the UK for Christmas and New Year's, Elliott clan. 🎄🎁🎀🎉🎄
Oh I just love your gray couch at 02:59 - or is it blue? Velvet? Please tell me what it's called and where can I get one like it, it's got a Victorian feel and isn't too long.
I just loved this. Especially at the end where Stuart was playing guitar, your son sweetly sitting with him, and you in the kitchen making cookies. So lovely! Merry Christmas Elliot family.
I always look forward to seeing any of your videos, but you taking us inside of your home and showing seasonal decoration (any season, but Christmas especially) is like a little treasure to me. Thank you.
I just realized that I started watching your channel when you were taking the stone off of that fireplace. That was you, right? That was such a chore. Happy holidays to you. ❤️🌲 That was very beautiful.
Well done. A smaller house is better for everyone. A lot of people have too much space. That lends itself to isolationism. The holiday decor is nicely understated; it even puts a Scrooge like me in a holiday mode. But don't tell anyone.
Thank you for sharing your Christmas home with us. It's not something everyone gets to experience, or have lost. But we get to experience some of the nostalgia and emotions through your video. Thank you, and nicely played Stuart. Happy Holidays!🎄
We love you Momma Shay !!! Living the purpose of humanity thank you for showing us the true life and always inspiring with every video . Happy Christmas dears 🎄
I really enjoyed this lovely tour of your home. It's so inviting...cozy and warm. Thank you for opening up your life, home, cooking and gardening to all of us. You're an inspiration. Stuart's guitar music at the end was perfect. Lovely. Merry Christmas Shaye, Stuart and kids. ❤🎄
Merry Christmas my friends! Make you sure watch to the end to see a little private concert of "Lo A Rose Er Blooming" by Stuart :)
Such a beautfil song! Thanks for sharing!!
Beautifully done!
@theelliotthomestead, where can I get the Bible verses on a string? They look like they are from Luke so I assume they are the Christmas story. I don’t have a printer. Did they come already printed?
Merry Christmas!!! Thank you for keeping us inspired. 💜💜💜
This was my favorite video! You are a sweet family and beautiful poet.

Хорошо сказано! 👍 Полностью согласен с вами!
I second in all you mentioned above! I watched this video again and its soo pleasant and peaceful. ❤
Stuart’s playing at the end was just beautiful! “Lo, How a Rose Ere Blooming” is one of my all-time favorite carols. ❤ Merry Christmas, Elliott family!
In Austria, we know it as "Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen" and I love it 🤗
I so appreciate that your tree is family oriented. It’s not just a “magazine picture” tree. Christmas is about Christ and family. The tree should have funky kids ornaments and memories ❤️
Stuart playing at the end stopped me dead in my tracks and brought tears to my eyes, so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.
I always love your posts but this one especially warmed my heart. A huge thank you to Stuart for the lovely guitar music. At times I could even smell the slight hint of wood smoke from the stove.

There is nothing better than having a Simply Splendid Christmas Presence 🎄🔔 and you have done it. Beautiful!
This felt like the warmest hug. Thanks for inviting us to your home. So beautiful! ♥️
Merry Christmas. What a beautiful video to put us in the spirit. May your season be full of family, good food, and great gatherings.
I love your cottage, so beautifully decorated. It feels like home. I would choose a cottage such as yours over any elegant mansion hands down, any day.
Me too. A grounded and authentic life close to the things that truly matter and keep us connected

Thank you for playing for us, Stu. And also for the interior ideas and coziness. Merry Christmas to you all

i can listen to you and your husband's music forever!
Yes indeed. Me too!

One of my favorite hymns for Christmas your spouse played! I liked his rendition!
Beautiful…….
Made me tear up…. I miss my family. God Bless You and your Family ❤
I love your cottage Shay. And I can sense the peace of Christ. Merry Christmas.

I love Stuart's guitar playing and his song choice is one of my favorites! Thanks for bringing simple beauty from your house to ours!
Absolutely beautiful home, family, and music. Important - please move those 2 chairs far away from your wood stove as it would only take a moment for them to catch on fire. Probably 4-6’ away would be best or ask your wood stove place. We heat with wood as well. So cozy. God bless you all.
Thank you. And I love the song at the end, you did that a few years ago too and it was just beautiful
Merry Christmas! That was such a beautiful, warm and loving way to end the video. Thank you for that. Blessings to you and your family.
You have a gift for creating beautiful cozy spaces. And the guitar playing was so soothing and peaceful. Thank you for inviting us into your home. Merry Christmas to you and yours.🎄
Always enjoy tuning in to enjoy a wonderful time with a beautiful family. Reminds me of when I was raising my children.
I love your site and this holiday sharing was awesome. And thank you for the beautiful soulful Christmas Carol at the end.
What company did you use to print your family pictures? I love the old fashioned look and size!
Such a beautiful Christmas video filled with the true meaning of Christmas. Your cozy cottage was filled with light, warmth and love of family. Stuart's masterful guitar playing was perfectly wonderful. Thank you for sharing your holiday home. May you all feel the warmth of God's love this blessed season.

Loved the Bible verse advent calendar…the guitar was awesome! Merry Christmas!
My favorite part(s):
1. Your bathroom
2. The pipe collection on the wall of your bedroom
3. The color of your bedroom ceiling
❤
I always enjoy your Christmas video and especially hearing Stewart play his guitar. I was wondering if he is the one playing the guitar during your regular posts as well? Merry Christmas to you and you family.

Beautiful guitar music by Stu👌Wishing you and your family a blessed Festive Season🎄Warm wishes from Cape Town, South Africa
Very beautiful home that feels warm, inviting and uncluttered which brings peace. “The church’s one foundation is Jesus Christ our Lord” was my father’s favorite song over 60 years ago…I loved hearing it played by Stuart on the guitar. 🥰
The view of your table with the ham, wine and stove in the background would make a really pretty picture!
Merry Christmas to your beautiful family and may God continue to richly bless your faithfulness in the new year.
The smiles and sweet gentle sparkles in your eyes in the photos you shared are heartwarming…as well as your glowing face while in the kitchen! Looking forward to a 2024 video reminiscent of past videos where you make coffee for each other…I think many of us share a coffee maker journey😊but not romanticized as you do and do so well!
The music was lovely as well as your home! Merry Christmas!
Beautiful home, decorations, and music, loved everything!❤
