I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your Mother. However, I am so glad you have found a joyful way to honor her. Everything is so gorgeous. You do an amazing job.

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

I'm so glad you like it. I feel very comforted in that room. It's almost like Mom is with me.

[@emmkaa2099]

Again, your home is so lovely!! Hugs

Thanks MK!!

Such a beautiful house and Christmas decor. I love love all your Christmas prints; it gives kind of a whimsical vibe. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

Thanks Marian! It's wonderful to have you here watching. I love the prints, too! I think I'm going to be doing a lot more of that in the future. I didn't know how easy it was until this year. Such fun!

[@annmargaret2106]

Wow Rozanne! It's all so beautiful! Your decorating is such a wonderful way to work through your grief and honor your beloved Mother. It must have taken hours of work but it's all simply gorgeous!

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

You're right... it has been a wonderful way to work through it. It's almost like Mom is still here with me. It did take me quite a bit to decorate this year, but it was a labor of love. I just took my time and enjoyed it. So wonderful to hear from you!

[@tinahynes3340]

beautiful house and decorations!!! you are a great decorator. I am going to steal a few of your ideas

Thanks Connie!

[@DaniDaysAhead]

Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful!

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

Hi Dani! It's so great to see you again!!

[@CynthiaMiller-cc3qj]

Rosanne, your home looked like a model home out of some Christmas Home Decor magazine. I used to decorate similarly but as age and physical infirmities have come along, I have realized that I can make our home look Christmasy with MUCH LESS. Last year, I had one smaller tree, Xmas throw pillows & blankets in the CB living room , one centerpiece each for the dining room & kitchen tables, one crèche on the buffet & a wreath on the door. That’s it! Christmas simplified and so much less work.

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

It sounds like you’ve come up with a great decorating plan for yourself. That’s great!

[@karenh5423]

Hi Rozanne! I just stumbled across your channels a few days ago and I'm so glad I did! I love hearing your voice and the sounds of your family, you are so blessed and deservedly so. You share a lot of wise words. Thrilled you're doing Vlogmas!! Would you be willing to share the pattern for the throw on the back of the chair that you sometimes use in your opening? Real life, real kitchen - you are amazing!

[@lisafelber8202]

Just lovely !! Wow , it must have taken a lot of time to create that ! But , it was worth every minute !

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

It didn't really take as much time as it looks, I think. Maybe 3-4 hours? I spent a lot more time a year and a half putting ribbon on a tree the wrong way (and just about crying because I couldn't make it look good). Spending time on KZbin studying how to do it last year was a good move. :-)

[@Mythriftedhome214]

Rozanne! Your home is so beautiful! You’re just bringing it alive with your personality and coziness❤

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

Thanks Dusti!!

[@donnawall6922]

❤ YOUR HOME IS REALLY BEAUTIFUL AND THE VERY BEST PART IS THAT YOU SEEM TO FEEL SO MUCH BETTER THAN WHEN WE FIRST MET!!! I THANK THE GOOD LORD FOR RESORING YOUR HEALTH AND HAPPINESS.....MERRY CHRISTMAS ROZANNE ❤

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

Donna! I was just thinking about you the other day and hoping that you're doing well. I was so happy to see you pop up today. And yes, I am feeling so much better. I got Covid a couple of months ago and I got so sick my doctor got me Paxolid. I've since read that it has been successfully used for some folks with Long Covid because it kills some remaining virus. That has to be it for me, because I feel so much better now. Who knew? I'm not 100%, but man... I feel so much better and can do more, so I'll take it. Hope you have a Merry Christmas too!

[@annw1395]

Beautiful decorations. I love the traditional red, green,and gold. What a massive amount of work to put all these up!

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

Thanks! I love those colors too. So happy.

[@myaustrianfarmhouse]

Rozanne your home looks so beautiful ❤ love how you decorated it for christmas! Great that you keep your mum in honor ❤❤ love and blessings from austria ❤❤

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

Hi Christian! So wonderful to see you again. I'm so happy that you enjoyed the video. Hope you and more your mom are doing well these days!

Thanks!!

[@elvaalcorta9577]

Lovely home! Love your rug from Amazon. Please let us know which one it is. Thanks.

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

I'm happy to give you a link. It's a wonderful rug. I really love it! amzn.to/3NhVR98

[@gerigowers8318]

So sorry about your Mom. It's June and I'm already determined that this year I'm going to really decorate for Christmas, so I'm planning now. Your style is what I like, but I'm in a neighborhood (development) where everyone decorates from Homegoods. I want to be brave enough to use some of the older things I have (like the oval portrait of my Grandparents). Love everything in your home. This is only my 2nd video, so I headed to your Christmas ones. I will now subscribe. Thank you for sharing.

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

I read your comment to my husband and he said that his very favorite Christmas decor tour of mine was the first one because I used all of my old decor. Very interesting. I’m thinking that sentimental wins the day for Christmas now. I’m going to go ahead and share a Christmas decor tour this year (tradition), but it will be interesting to see how much I tone it down from 2023. I already have some ideas. I’ll be using decor that I already own and family items. Go for using the family portrait!

[@gerigowers8318]

@@TowardsASimpleLife The tree in my bedroom (4 ft. flocked cause no snow here in SC) has all of the old faded Shiny Brites from my parents and the Woolworth's cardboard nativity and figurines around it. Think I'll add bubble lights to it this year (got rid of the originals years ago cause they got too hot). Can't wait for this year's video tour!

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

@gerigowers8318 love love bubble lights!

[@karenh5423]

Hi Rozanne! I just stumbled across your channels and I am so happy I did! I do so enjoy listening to you and seeing bits of your life. One quick question - the throw that you have on the back of the chair that you sometimes use in your opening, would you have a pattern you would be able to share?

[@TowardsASimpleLife]

I'm so glad you're here, Karen! It's such (good) luck that you found me! I wish I could give you the pattern to that throw. Isn't it wonderful? I bought it last year at Target and have continually used it since then. It works so well with that chair that it's found a permanent home. I've only successfully knitted one thing in my entire life because I have so much trouble dropping stitches. I think it's amazing when people can knit well. See you!
