I was thinking the same! Lol where I live they probably wouldn't even let you on the bus with a tree, but maybe it's more common in areas where less people drive or have cars.
I have delivered a fair share of Christmas trees home on the bus through the years :) Sometimes they were so tall, that could hardly fit under the roof.
First off, I constantly get the nest in my long hair, nightmare. Second, how you decorated your tree is exactly how my family does it. We have the ancient wooden bandsmen, no two decorations are the same, no wasted space. I lost my mam earlier this year and we always did the tree together so I’ve been real apprehensive about doing it. This brought back good memories so thank you, Lucy. Your tree looks amazing!
My Christmas tree has ornaments dating back to the 70s from my grandma and when my mom was younger. I love the look of aesthetic color coordinated trees but I love the nostalgia of the handmade ones from when I was a kid and the Hallmark ornaments I get each year. I also collect them from every trip I go on, lots of Disney ones. I vow to never have a matchy matchy tree. I like personality and spark!
I love your Christmas tree 😊 I like when there isn’t a specific theme but they still somehow match. And as you said there is some personality rather than what is trending.
Lol my boyfriend and I are usually terrible with decorating our tree! One year, I found some massive googly eyes, so we put them on the tree with a top hat, and that was it 😂😂 another year, Mum came over a week before christmas and was shocked that we only had the tree, with NO decorations on it, so she decorated it! I have since purchased pokeball baubles and loads of pop culture decorations! I love watching your videos Lucy, it's like chatting with a friend 😊I just love your content so much ♥️ Christmas movie suggestions: Noelle, The Polar Express, Arthur Christmas, The Grinch, The Family Stone, Serendipity 😁
As someone from the North of Ireland I had a giggle at you saying shower!! My family do 2 trees, a big one which is red and gold and then a smaller one in another room which has all our nostalgic christmas decorations. I watched The Christmas Chronicles & The Christmas Chronicles 2 at the weekend - both a good watch!!
Oh my god those retro wooden decorations! I have 3 that I got from my nana and grandad that are looking a little worse for wear but I LOVE them so much!
Underrated Christmas Movie: Grumpy Old Men (and Grumpier Old Men). Also another must is National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. That one is for Christmas Day in our home.
This is my favourite Christmas tree. Mine has those little wooden creepy decorations because I grew up in Germany and they are everywhere. I really love them! I love colour and baubles with memory’s and all of these will have memories
Such a gorgeous happy little Christmas tree!! Our tree is always super busy and full of decorations, so I approve!! And also I need that pud bobble in my life!!
I used to have some of those wooden decorations to use on a mini tree. I actually bought them second hand at a charity Christmas fair but I couldn't decide if they were cute and vintage looking or just plain scary hahaha
Yesss go Whitehall garden centre!! It's an Amazing place in Wiltshire. They have big displays at Christmas that you can walk around and LOADS of baubles
16:45 those figurines are traditionally German Christmas decorations and done in German folk art. (It's art, ok? 😂😂) They originate in the ore mountains (erzgebirge). Decorating a tree inside a house is a German tradition from the black forest. I am guessing parts of decorating a tree were taken over too. Another Christmas tree thing: in Germany ( or at least where I live) you can't buy Christmas trees until around the 10/11th of December. And it wasn't unusual for me as a kid that some friends didn't see their tree until the 24th. And the Christmas topper is put up on the day you open presents: the 24th dec. Have lovely Christmas time Lucy. This video put me into a very cosy mood
Yes to breakfast hash! I put kale or spinach in as well door token green & a bit of grated cheese. I'm growing my hair to donate it for wig making so can agree with 'the nest' I have to throw my hair over the back of my pillow when I sleep otherwise I throttle myself and end up with a bigger all-over nest
This year all rules are out the window. My local WhatsApp neighbourhood group agreed we would all put lights in our windows early this year to cheer us all up. So on the 20th of November most of us put some up and I have to say I have never seen so many lights before and it really does cheer us all up. When I was putting mine up I heard a noise and looked outside to see two little girls waving at me looking so excited and they shouted "We love your lights" and it made all the effort wortwhile to see the excitement on their faces. Would normally not put my lights up until around the 8th of December. Your tree looks amazing Lucy. Just like a proper xmas tree should look. I l♡ve it! Still hate that cheetah though 😕
I cannot overstate the warm fuzzies this vlog has provided💞 The most adorable humans in the land. Also - my fake tree (that is bowing beneath the weight of the 5 ornaments on it) is maybe two (2) feet tall aaaaand I need so many of these ornaments. 🎄 Much love!
YAY CRIMBO 🎅🏼 We're a synthetic tree family but your Christmas tree look this year is seriously starting to make me consider the real deal next year! Also mate, the long hair nest can get in the bin.
As soon as I saw that vintage TV bauble I thought of Wallace and Gromit too! It's a Christmas tradition for me and my brother to sit down and watch them.
I know that at first you were worried about transitioning from try-on to vlog-style videos and I know you've been doing these for quite some time now, but I just wanted to reiterate that this content and format really fit you so well! I always enjoy them and they feel so welcoming and relaxing and just... like a nice cup of tea on the sofa under the blanket, while the day outside is rubbish, but you're inside and you're warm, so it's all good. Hope you keep doing them (as long as you're enjoying them yourself)! Merry Christmas to you and Adam and Flo! 🎄
Whitehall Garden Centre has two centres, one near Trowbridge, Wiltshire, and one on the outskirts of Bristol, near me. Their bauble collection is INCREDIBLE. I took my daughter to meet Father Christmas there, last year, and I must have spent a good hour just looking at (and spent a fair few pennies on) some beautiful decorations.
We are moving out the week before Christmas, and now i want to go shopping for Christmas tree decorations after watching this 😂 Our first tree in our new house 😍
This was just the video I needed to get me all inspired to put up my own tree! As a child, growing up in Australia, we always had a real tree but we got it the weekend before Christmas - because it's so hot over Christmas that the poor tree wouldn't last much longer!! I haven't had a real tree since I moved out a few years ago and Christmas isn't the same without it! Your tree is the stuff of my dreams!!
The "crazy" ornaments are based on German Erzgebirge region wooden ornaments, which are handmade and lovely - at some point that one set of designs got ripped off and reproduced around the world it seems, because I also grew up with exactly that set a long way from Germany! I can't believe anyone finds them creepy, they're so nostalgic for me ❤I might actually buy a new set this year, I had no idea you still could
Your tree is absolutely beautiful 🎄 My tree also turns out to be a mish mash of decorations from all the years!!! And yes everyone has the weird wooden character ones!!! 😂
My family has always gotten our Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving. Decorations come out and the tree goes up. If the tree lasts, we take it all down on New Year’s Day.
Have a look on Typo, they have got some really lovely retro style ones, and some funny ones (santa pulling a moonie anyone?!), some of them are on offer, in case you want to stock up on some more for next year! Your tree and decs look sooo lovely and cosy. On another note, Die Hard is our christmas eve tradition, we watch it on Christmas eve every year.
Omg, ''the nest'' is sooooo sooo familiar to me! I thought I was the only one that had this, because I am such a poor excuse for a girl and my hair brushing skills are not too great. Glad to know I am not alone :D
Those weird wooden character Christmas decorations are a classic :D I come from the Canary Islands and my family had those on their tree too (EXACTLY those), they must be universal :D
Watching you show the tree decorations you have bought and our decorations are probably similar. We just buy decorations we love... No exact theme or colour but a lot have certain memories.
I'm so glad not to be the only adult dealing with 'the nest'?? for me it's definitely a winter thing cus my scarves just knot up that part of my hair? dying to chop it off
A couple of things. ⭐️ The Nest in the hair situation (aka the reason I cut my hair to just above shoulder height) ⭐️ The decorations. Especially the ones no one knows where they came from...my mum gifted the mini version to me. I loved the fluffy beard one as a kid. But really they were all the best. 30 year later I am still putting the originals on my parents tree. ⭐️ The School of Rock in the top movie group comment. ⭐️ Any feature of Flo which reminds me of my cat girl Jana 🐱
We always set up the christmas tree the weekend after Sinterklaas (which is on the 5th of December), a national holiday over here in the Netherlands. Now we set up the christmas tree in November 🤷♀️ Feel like covid makes people put up trees earlier then ‘normal’ 🙈
I love your tree!!! Also, Tony's salted caramel is my favorite chocolate!!!! I absolutely love it and it's a company that's conscious about cacao sourcing and doesn't exploit workers :)
