I just found your channel and I wanted to let you know that I appreciate your inspiration. My husband passed away 2 years ago and I haven't been feeling like facing all the memories this Christmas. You have encouraged me to make new memories for my family. God bless you and your beautiful family.
Mimi's MEGA LIFE: I know what you're saying, I feel your pain. I just lost my husband 4 months ago. I'm sorry for your loss. Lauren is showing me that a little Christmas joy can be possible. Love, love all the traditional decor touches throughout. Lauren has so much style, class and ENERGY! The Mrs.
I know how you're feeling. My husband passed away 2 1/2 years ago. I was actually asking myself just this morning why I even bother decorating since I'm mainly the only one to see it on a day to day basis. Life goes on and doing the little things as decorating for a holiday seems to bring a little normalcy to life. Hope you all have a Merry Christmas.
So glad you were not afraid to use the traditional red and green in your house. Loved your dining room decorations and the big Santa picture in the kitchen. Your kids will love you.
Well! this is very BEAUTIFUL and magical for your children and family!!! Thank You! for all your great Inspiration! You're children are going to love this, A child's dream to wake up and find their Mom making Christmas so festive for them. BRAVO to you!!! you all have a lovely home Thanks for sharing with us all.
Lauren, your heart comes through in so many ways. Your love of family and memories, even how you love on those sweet little kittens. Don’t let guilt rob you of your joy. And remember, if you didn’t love your kids with all your heart, you wouldn’t feel guilt in the first place. 😉 Keep doing what you’re doing. It is evident that you are a hard working momma and your efforts will pay off. Congratulations on your schooling achievements. That is tremendous, and deserves celebrating 🎉.
Love the checkered and black details. The Christmas colors of silver, gold, red and green. Watching this video brought back memories..Warmth, tradition, love, family. Thank you. This is what Christmas is supposed to be.
Wow, the last part with the hot cocoa bar area literally made me tear up! Your children will remember this. You must be the best mom. Merry Christmas! 🎄
Although Iyar watched this video one year later today, I am so floored with the love you put into decorating for the holidays. I absolutely love everything and let me just say the beautiful blue, at the top in your kitchen, are my mom’s favorite pieces. It’s like watching a Hallmark movie❤️❤️❤️
As always your home is magical with your touch of goodness,I bet you’re husband and kiddos love waking up to there winter wonderland house it’s amazing Lauren, so proud of you girl thanks for sharing
Aww what you did for your kids at the end made my eyes leak. You can tell how much you love your kids by all the special memories you make for them when you decorate for all the different seasons. I could just imagine their eyes lighting up when they came in to find that in the kitchen the next morning. Lauren you are such an inspiration...your channel makes my heart happy 🙂♥️
SO beautiful! I started tearing up at the end while you were talking about your kids at the hot coco bar! What an incredible mom you are to work so hard and go above and beyond using your gifts and talents to make so much magic for your family!
I had tears of happiness and joy towards the end of the video . When you had set up the table top for kids . I could relate to the emotion as I do the same for my little one .merry Christmas 🎅
I never thought of tying a small wreath to the curtain. Such a cute idea. Everything looks amazing! Especially love the tablescape and the hot cocoa set up on the island.
Im actually watching this video in the month of June.I absolutely love this video. I watched it first then showed it to my family. I love it so much. Excellent💖💖💖👍
Your decor literally brings tears 😢 of JOY to my heart ❤. Everything, literally everything is so beautiful and screams, "So This is Christmas 🎄". All I can say is God bless you and your talent 🙏. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I gotta say.... the amount of LOVE you put into everything shines through!!! The home looks so beautiful bc of the amount of love you have put into it for your kids and husband! Even though this is from Christmas 2021, and you have now moved i to your new home, the memories from being here, I can just imagine are always going to be super special!
Hi there! I just found your channel today. I have been binge watching all day. When you brought out “The Joy of Cooking” cookbook, I got the strangest feeling. I thought “I have that cookbook”. I went into my pantry and I have that exact same cookbook!!!! It was given to me by my grandmother so many years ago I had lost track. She has been gone for over 20 years. When I opened it, I found an inscription that it was to be given to me. It had just become lost with all the other cookbooks that I have. I literally have tears in my eyes as I am typing this. Thank you for this being brought back to my attention. From now on, that cookbook will be front and center. So looking forward to what you have planned for all the holidays this year. God bless you for giving me back a gift I had misplaced.
Such a cute job with the coco center piece. Mom guilt sucks. I hate when I have a busy day and feel like I didn't spend enough fun time with my babies. Don't be too hard on yourself, you are making wonderful memories for them 😊❤
That spot for the santa picture is perfect... Your house looks so magical... Your decorating style is spot on..how every little detail is captured.... Love the cocoa bar...
I love how "simple" decor of your home has so many little touches that clearly take your time and mental energy to make it all come together elegantly (such as the wreaths on the curtain ties). Just lovely!
I love everything. So warm and inviting. Lucky family cos you put so much heart and soul in what you do. Your family will always love and appreciate YOU!
I’m a new subscriber and I have to say you won me over saying adopt don’t shop!! I’m such an advocate for this! Thank you for what you contribute. Also love love love your passion for decorating but ever more for traditions. ❤❤ God bless.
You just make me feel happy! I love the way you are able to look at an arrangement of items and somehow know how to make it look better. Your house is so lovely!
Happy Christmas! I discovered you last night, and what a delight and genuine treat you are! I adore your classic style. Most of all, your incredibly demeanor and class. You are a talent! Thank you so much for bringing joy to others.
I try never to commit on a persons spouse, but for him to compare you to his grandmother was just the sweetest. I love the Santa and that you use ribbon tie backs.
The top of the kitchen cupboards would be lovely with a total red and green theme. Maybe a collections of Santas with the lights and garland. The ideas are endless.
Absolutely gorgeous, don’t know how you do it with school and all, you go that extra mile adding the most beautiful touches to your decor design and it shows. Thank you Lauren for sharing your lovely home with us . I have been enjoying your videos very much. Merry Christmas.🎄
Hi Lauren!! Everything looks so beautiful and yes I used to... but now I make the bowl on the hook so that my curtain don't get wrinkled, & then I just tack them in the back and give it the balloon look and that makes it look more flowy relax and gives it the Victorian look but whatever makes you happy that's what it's all about 👍🤗🌲
Simple elegance at its best ! ♥️ Please don’t change the songs -I look forward to hearing them while watching you’re blogs so much ! Very up lifting and wonderful ! Love Santa over the stove -perfect place watching over the kiddos ! I have an advent cat 🐈 calendar for my kitties from Trader Joe’s! Love this tradition! ❤️🎄❤️🎄❤️
OMGoodness! Even better than I imagined it would be. That Santa "portrait" is fabulous and in a perfect spot. Your kids are going to have amazing memories. Just Beautiful.❤

What a special video, Lauren! Your decorating is flawless and the tribute to your kids is so special. I have a good friend who goes the extra mile every holiday to decorate and make special memories for her grandkids. Y’all remind me so much of each other.

I'm not able to decorate for Christmas like this because I don't really have enough money to do so (yet), so I really enjoy watching you go through the process. It makes me feel a lot more festive and happy :)

Lauren your children WILL be proud of you and some day they will understand what a good example you set for them, so good job on finishing your degree!
