Finally someone who also just loves ALL colours. I am sick of all these white, concrete, beige "minimalist" boring homes nowadays. This is awesome!

[@annedonker4795]

agree!!

[@AnnaBaaanana]

I came back to this video to make the same comment!

[@allymonte7295]

Aren't they terrifyingly cold? Totally sterile and boring! Colors are alive and fun!

[@andreaandrea6716]

Oh!!!! I LOVE that you said "Christmas is not about good taste. It's about being happy." I could not agree with you more! And I will quote you. It really is a time of nostalgia... and filling the house with everything that is personal.

[@catherine3684]

In the winter the fireplace replaces the sun. Love that.

[@angelaberni8873]

And all the heat goes up the chimney. Step back a few steps ....and your FREEZING !!

[@thekingsdaughter4233]

@@angelaberni8873 they make really efficient fireplaces now. And woodstoves. I'm dreaming... 😊

[@fionaokeefe1906]

@@thekingsdaughter4233 they still don’t heat up the entire house….you would need central heating in order for you to stay warm

[@adventuresawaitathome]

The worst part of the video is that it is too short. Absolutely beautiful. Her home has been featured in online magazines white a few times and it has inspired me to emulate the cosiness in my own home. Absolutely stunning.

[@annolsen4943]

Amanda Brooks has the best of American and British taste. I especially like the fact that she does use handicrafts from small family-businesses. Her taste is superb. What sets her apart is the fusion of American and British taste.

[@mkas291]

Your home is beautiful. I would never go minimalist! Everything is so lovely

[@glgardener4972]

Lovely warm home. I love all the candles-they are magical. The parlor with the fireplace and all the books are my cup of tea!

[@lindsayemigh4283]

Love this! I now need both a fox and a mushroom tree. Very charming!

[@tigermoon44]

Eye candy, old fashioned with a modern twist, farm house beautiful with old charm tradition!

[@pamelaroebuck1079]

I love what you created for your Mother-in-law. You made her feel special and loved.

[@HilaryBarker]

Ahh love her style! (and love her dog!)

[@luci1474]

I always go back to this video. It’s only few that I go back to bc they speak to me. I didn’t grow up with this type of décor but I LOVE when ppl put their souls into their homes. Well done ❤

[@ladykokob9149]

What a wonderful home and shop! I love that "fox" too.

[@ed9910]

Absolutely lovely...Christmas is about being happy.

[@MFSG67]

Makes me nostalgic! I owned a shop which had the same themes as hers for 11 years. Half of the garage is filled with my favorite Christmas decorations 😂😂😂 My house is very colourful too! She's a kindred spirit 🥰😍🥰

[@teacatz3]

Gorgeous home and shop!! Just adore the mushroom tree -- and that mushroom tree topper!! Thanks for sharing - Best Wishes to All for a Happy Christmas and Winter Season!!

[@hearswhat8734]

This is what my heaven would look like ! Love LoVe LOVE IT !!!!

[@mysticalHeir]

You rate in the 'best' category... any lover of beauty will not be able to watch the video just once. The ruffled table cloth and backgammon table/chairs are amazing. Your shop is beautiful, your house is divine. The Cotswolds is a piece of heaven on earth.

[@tommoncrieff1154]

This really is a lovely shop. I live nearby and often browse there. Think I have to work harder on my hand-picked foliage though, I just pepper the house with sprigs of holly and ivy from our garden, in little upside down bunches hung with ribbons and silvered glass bells and hearts.

[@evergreen8965]

😊. Lucky you to get to visit her shop!

[@vanessaisom8620]

Birds, berries, and fresh greenery, cant beat it!

[@bww1267]

How many times have I watched this? Never gets old.

[@smfrem367]

She is so good Omgosh English home magazine needs to feature her home like right away.

[@anne7441]

Lovely! Your home is so personal, just like it should be. Love that.

[@kikalove1416]

Omg!!!! I can’t believe you showed up on my KZbin! Your living room I have saved from every angle in my Pinterest saved under design. The design pin for me is what I dream of for my home! Of all the beauties I see in Pinterest, your living room makes my heart skip a beat every time I see it! I am obsessed with England and English cottage decor. Your life is an inspiration. So happy to see the person behind my dream home decor! Also fascinated that you are an American living in the most beautiful country due to all of its historic buildings and charm everywhere you look! Merry Christmas from your biggest fan!

[@simbasbestie]

Probably my 10th time watching. Love all the colors. So pretty cozy and happy😊

[@dianeyoung8068]

Very pretty! I love that fox, so cute! Nothing like fresh greenery.

[@violy67]

Lovely home definitely a goal of mine. I love watching crafty individuals, their passion really shines through their decor. I visited cotswold a few years back, locals were very warm, friendly, very different to the people in central London.

[@hopefischer]
