You are such a darling human, Randi. I feel I can never express enough the joy I get from your videos. I’m so happy at the life you’ve built for yourself, funny coming from a stranger, but I’m old enough to be your mom, so this is a motherly admiration! I work long 12 hour night shifts in an ER and I woke up a little early today and watching your video, cozy on the couch with a blanket and coffee next to my tree was just the perfect thing. And again with that cinematography! Breathtaking. The merriest of Christmases to you and your family! And, Cedar, too! What a sweet boi!

[@RandiLynnReed]

Aw thank you so so much for this! I smiled from ear to ear reading it & it means more to me than you'll ever know! Knowing that my videos offer peace & comfort to those who need it is one of the greatest gifts I will very received! Thank you so much for being here 💛 Merry Christmas to you & yours!!!

[@AfricancoolChic]

Looking forward to reading new winter books in December.

[@kathleenroberts7972]

I have quite a winter book collection myself. I saved all of my daughters childhood Christmas story books.they are so sweet and comforting.

[@gracemccartin194]

Cedar is the cutest dog and so sweet🥰

[@user-hu9ln4wt1k]

Ваши видео сплошное умиротворение! Вы такая юная милая волшебница! Спасибо большое!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@AfricancoolChic]

Thanks for your beautiful mindful videos. 🧡🖤🧡

[@kimcartwright8111]

This was wonderful, Randi! Your videos are so wholesome and peaceful. I am very grateful for you and your beautiful art. I'm so happy your business is thriving. Have a wonderful holiday!

[@jillychandler]

You look so lovely and snug in your home, with the snow coming down outside, and your beautiful loved cuddly dog with you! Such beautiful books you were looking at in the book store. We had our first snow down here in Devon, England last night, so it was so lovely and white walking my black rescue greyhound Madge in it first thing this morning! It is snowing outside now and off, and very cold out there at the moment. Our Ukrainian family, who live just opposite from me, have two girls of 9 and 10, and I am hoping that they will be so excited to see their first snow in England, they are such a lovely family. Love, hugs and Blessings to you, lovely girl. xxx

[@RandiLynnReed]

Oh what a magical dream that sounds! I wish we could get more snow here!!! ❄️

I love when you share picture books. I actually have a couple from what you shared today, but what I didn't have, I quickly requested from my library. Your videos are very peaceful. ❤️

[@tawnyachristensen7310]

Beautiful, I have rewatched this several times! I love children picture books and have a small collection for each season. Thanks for adding to my wish list with these selections, I have already bought one and requested a couple from my library! Such Powell's envy here!

[@starsrhi2335]

HELLO FROM TEXAS - Was browsing and saw your channel. This is a charm and a comfort compared to some of the nonsense we see nowdays. Will check out your website to see the delights you have in store. Thank you for sharing your time and work. Have a blessed, safe, and beautiful Merrry Christmas.

[@evangelinepoe8952]

Warmth and thoughtfulness shimmers from every frame of your videos. 🥰 ✨ I’ll have to look for the children’s books you shared. Last year I gave my grandchildren Love Matters Most. The littlest one has had me read it to her all year long. ☃️ 🎄❄️ Thank you Randi!

[@lesliebroderick7849]

Beautiful. This is the lifestyle I love and videos like this are perfect to me. Stellar job

[@GloriaZThompson]

Those picture books are so precious!

[@meganluck4352]

That Powell's looks like a store that I would spend time in! Love the decorations in there and at your home. I too do embroidery while watching TV . I like your tea kettle with strawberries on it, very cute. I need to look for that book, The Winter Story. That is too cute.

[@kellyrhea4601]

Thanks for sharing those beautiful books ❤️.

[@idabustamante7081]

Hello Randi . . you had me at "Powell's" 😊 . . what a beautiful collection of winter books to cozy up to . . thank you for another aesthetically beautiful amazing video . . have an awesome weekend take care 🐶❤️🙋‍♀️🎄🎅🎁❄️⛄️

[@NikkiSchumacherOfficial]

Woah. Never been this early. So beautiful even in just the first minutes.

[@meganluck4352]

The woodland animals stationary you write on is something I would definitely buy. The cover art on your books is so enchanting. The small books next to the Little Women book that you read. I saw Heidi but couldn't read the other two of the small books. Have a very cozy and blessed Christmas Randi.

[@RandiLynnReed]

Isn't it beautiful? It is made by the wonderful artist, Cecile Berrube! The other two small books were Anne of Green Gables & A Little Princess!

[@cerridwencottagediary9194]

We love the Brambly Hedge books. Greetings from a snowy Wales

[@alexlvelasco2127]

I am new to your channel, and I love it! I find it super inspiring! Do you have a video where you share your tips on getting started as an full time artist? 💕💕

[@RandiLynnReed]

I don't currently, but may be that will be one I do in the future! ✨ Thank you for sharing & for being here! 💛

[@sylviabol640]

🎄❄️💚❤️

[@brandimullins3627]

Would you do a home tour? This video is so peaceful!!!!

[@RandiLynnReed]

I definitely will do a home tour when my husband and I have our own home one day!! We currently have unique living situation where we live in a little renovated trailer on some family's property to which we also have access to their house (where my studio is & where I film most the time). So, the house portions in this video isn't mine! However I do have a tiny home tour I did a couple years ago of our little renovated trailer! :)

[@vedaimig8018]

Hey, I have notifications on but I haven't been notified for anything from you. This happens sometimes if you do premieres for videos, but IDK!

[@RandiLynnReed]

Oh interesting!! I didn't know it did that! I know some people do get notified about premieres though too, so maybe it's a weird glitch?

[@Boyamatha]

I do so enjoy your videos and I just signed up with you on Patreon; looking forward my stickers and prints.

[@RandiLynnReed]

Oh wow! Thank you SO so much for joining! I hope you will enjoy your happy mail when it arrives & the other content I share there as well! 💛
