I started following you when you had 165k subscribers and it's been the biggest pleasure watching your channel grow. I'm so happy for you and this beautiful life you have! Thank you for letting me be part of your journey 🤍 Allison, your endless joy for this gift of life will forever be contagious. You are one of the most special, beautiful souls to walk this earth 😇🥹 Missed you so much!
With your ultrasound picture, I would scan the photo and hang the scanned photo up and keep the original in an envelope or dark spot… the sunlight WILL over time fade the ultrasound. I learned the hard way 😢
I love watching your videos, Allison! I remembered when I was still in college that I discovered your channel and stayed with you since because of your bright and friendly personality that reminds me of the sun! 🌞 🤍
we lovvvve colorful mamas 🫶🏻 i’m such an anti-beige mom because i love that my daughter is seeing and experiencing the color and all its color for the first time!!
Hi Allison! I would love to watch you create a scrapbook just for your baby, you can use it to save your favorite memories and to document his milestones ✨
I just love what you’ve done with the collection of pics on that wall - it came together so nicely, and I think it’s so very special that you included the picture of your Angel Baby ❤
Yellow isn't calming in a babies room. For some reason (studies have shown) that babies cry more in yellow rooms than any other colour. I found this out too late, after I had colour drenched the entire room in yellow and my first born decided to prove the theory correct! 😂
Allison I was thinking. That window above your photo wall. Maybe get a large, light color vessel and have a bushy hanging plant on the left side of that window, trailing down. ..just a thought. 😊👶🏻🧸🧷🐠🦞🍉🌽🏖️🌞
Sweet, relaxing vlog. Interior design tips... 1. Don't pick paint before other things.. you can match the paint to soft furnishings, but the other way around is difficult. 2. Number frames and paper so you know whats what. But also you need to mix the frames concerning colour, shape, texture etc.. not just sizes. Also the photos inside need to be ballanced with each other. Doing the pictures in the frames first, then laying them out on the floor until they look like you want is better to do BEFORE paper placement on the wall. Ps. You can do 75%fruit/25% sugar jam. You just need more lemon juice etc to get it to thicken.
Allison, I’m so excited for your little BOY! I have a 2.5 year old boy and let me tell you… he LOVES his momma and it’s so sweet. You will be an amazing mom.
So happy to see you smiling, your soon to be baby is growing and your GLOWING!! I love your DIY ideas as always!! Cant wait to see what you do with the NURSERY 💙💛
I love all your photo walls Allison! Your creativeness really shines through in your beautiful home. You and Brandon have created a beautiful life together and I can’t wait to watch your family blossom 🌸 🌻🌼🌷🩷🤍💙
I love the picture wall! I would add some plants to the area, that might help with the unfinished feeling. It will carry the rest of the plant energy from around the house 🫶🏼
Allison, how cute would it be if you found a old children hymn book and framed the song Jesus loves me for the baby room? I really enjoyed your travel vlogs sooo much and the lemon shirt for your little man teared me up ❤
I can't wait until I finish our room and the living room. I live with my boyfriend our friend and his girlfriend. We have this wall in the living room that's really ideal for a gallery wall. I want to take memories that they have made and ones that my boyfriend and I have made and make it something special for all of us. We hosted our very first game night this past Saturday and it was fun! Can't wait to do more of them and get creative when it comes to snacks and stuff like that. Definitely will be watching some of your older videos to get some ideas! I just love where I'm at right now in life. And I couldn't be happier. Thank you for sharing the elderberry jam also!
The NESTING FRAME DESIRE when you are pregnant is an actual pregnancy symptom haha, I'm currently 22 weeks in and hanging EVERYTHING on the wall... I was never like this before, haha. I love that it's not only me :P
Hi Allison 🌸 Love your photo wall and all your special memory photos😍 I think you’ll need a separate wall for all the photos you’ll be taking of your baby boy🫶 I thought when you showed the square clear baby cube that it would be good to use after bath time with ear buds, creams ect. in it 🤔 Love watching your videos, you are so inspiring 💝 Sending love from Australia xxx
Love your videos! The frames you found are all so adorable! The patterned ones are so nice too. Looking forward to the nursery finale. It’s too tempting to buy frames in general for me! I stock up when I see cute ones 😊
I love making a compote/jam with frozen wild blueberries just using the blueberries and chia seeds! As the frozen fruit defrosts in the pan I smash it down a bit to release juices and the chia seeds suck up the liquid and gets a nice texture ☺️ I’ve never had to add sugar!
I think it’s totally normal to feel like something looks odd when you first change decor of any kind. You have to get used to the changes in your environment before you can appreciate it. I love the way the gallery wall turned out!
Beautiful what you did in this video the Gailey wall is absolutely lovely it's a work in progress I really enjoy your style and watching your videos thank you for sharing this with everyone be blessed lovely lady 😊🐶🐕🐕🦺🌿🌴🌻🌼🐞🦋🐛
the framed pictures are so beautiful! 🥹 maybe eventualy wrap them around the right wall? could be a fun corner moment! or filling the whole wall they’re on will be amazing too. so excited to see more nesting! 😍
dearest allison, you are truly so very beautiful from the heart. you are sunshine in pure human form. you radiate unconditional kindness, joy and love. you're tangible reminder that this life is the most precious gift from Jesus. you endlessly remind me to live each moment of each day to the absolute fullest. i have been subscribed to your inspiring, calming, beautiful channel since the very beginning, january 2018. throughout the years, you have become such a huge inspiration and role model to me (especially in all things Jesus). i am now 31 years old and i truly feel like i have grown up alongside you. it such a joy watching you step into the season of motherhood. i am overjoyed for you and brandon to become parents. may the Lord pour unconditional magic, sunshine, laughter and many joyous days into your beautiful home. allison, i deeply believe that you are an angel in a human body. you are so inspiring and your endless love for Jesus is so contagious. sending you and brandon so much appreciation and love all the way from long island, new york. 🌼💛
I love your videos but I wanted to share I love using half monk fruit and half sugar for the recipes I make! I feel like when just useing half its not as “bad” for you😌so you can eat giult free of all the sugar while still having the classic flavor and tastes. Most often you can’t even tell a difference in flavors or texture! Love monk fruit 🥰
Just a reminder to everyone- literally no one lives like this lmfao frolicking in a garden and making jam and doing arts and crafts. This girl is selling a false lifestyle. Don’t look at her life and be upset. It’s not real
If you were talking about anyone else I might be inclined to agree with you.. but not Allison. Her lifestyle is aspirational.. tranquil but with a fair share of adventure, leisurely, wholesome. It's a blessed one but it's not unattainable.. and it is certainly well deserved. I think I speak for much of her audience when I say we enjoy watching her videos. Allison is not boastful. She doesn't incite envy. She doesn't make anyone feel less than. Her vlogs are just inspiring. You feel like you're living vicariously through her. She is so wonderfully bright, creative and an amazing light in an increasingly dark world. Now I'm not a massively happy go lucky person.. I have cynicism about the world creeping in where I really shouldn't. When I watch Allison's content it's a reprieve. She is so pure and genuine and her excitement and wonder for the world moves me. Everybody has different enablements and privileges in life.. just as there are some barriers and hardships. Allison does RU-vid for work so this is her job. She can spend time this way. It absolutely is real.. it's not performative or a show. I've watched her channel for years and each vlog picks up on a project she has underway. She is always going somewhere, working on something new. Just making progress and staying active. It might represent an idealistic lifestyle over a realistic one for most of us but it's not false. Anyway... the average person could totally do arts and crafts, frolic in a garden, make jam. Maybe not everyday and not all at once but this really isn't so crazy! x
@@ALLISONBICKERSTAFF Sending all my love Allison! ❤️ So overjoyed for you and Brandon as you get closer to meeting your sweet baby boy. Watching you realise your dreams and have them come to fruition is such a pleasure. Honestly, the happiness I feel is akin to as if it was me. Thank you for being you! 🥰
I appreciate that Allison never tries to sell products like most influencers and she doesn't use her vlog as a sounding board like many vloggers do now, which isn't content. Allison is actually producing high quality content with excellent editing, touches of beauty and great music. This is what I appreciate and why it is worth my time to watch. I also appreciate that she shows herself reading the Bible, mentions attending church on Sunday, and her husband wears a Cross. I see that the true source of light, joy, and peace in their lives is Jesus Christ, and Allison shows this without preaching. To paraphrase St Francis, "Spread the Gospel and sometimes use words." I also see her spreading the Gospel when she carried her cross going through the very, very difficult situation that she went through recently. Allison and her husband are great role models, which are hard to find online and offline these days.
@@lisapolanski9379 I couldn’t have said it better myself. Allison’s character and heart as well as what she lives for and prioritises is clear to see. Faith is an anchor and without it you risk getting swept away by the tides of life. There is no preaching, just gentle encouragement and food for thought that invites curiosity, conversation and self reflection. Religion can be so contentious and controversial so I love that you’ve made this point. To actually live in the word and let your actions do all the speaking is so powerful and a testament to who somebody is.
