[@yeseniac.7773]

Wow!!! Thank you, Miriam, for responding to my question on your other video, which you posted 3 years ago. I asked today, you respond today and here I am!!! I'm so excited and blessed. Not many KZbinrs will take the time to respond, especially if it's regarding an older video❤🙏👍🥰 Thanks so much!

[@MiriamsManner]

I'm thrilled you gave us the link to the "Christmas Village Displays Website". Extremely helpful. This is another outstanding video. You are a lifesaver. Thank you.

Aw, thanks so much! 😃. You are very welcome!

[@jimmyrants4342]

@@MiriamsManner I just went to that Christmas Village Displays website, and I cannot believe all of the helpful tips they offer. I would have never found that place if it were not for you.....so thanks a million again. I am going to need some help or tips on how to hide cords and wires....like the wires that are attached to streetlights specially. I guess just bury them them with fake snow? lol. I do not mean to work you, but I bet many people want to know about wire hiding. I know I do. lol.

[@MiriamsManner]

I will definitely be going over that in some videos to come. In the past, I have used grass mats, pebbles, snow, and the cobblestone road to cover the cords for my street lights. I also use another technique with styrofoam. I will be starting my village set up this coming week and will be doing a step by step video of my main village set up.

Thanks a lot very helpful. Love all your wonderful ideas and tips. I will start my village soon. Be healthy and happy

[@MiriamsManner]

Hello Nancy, thank you so much! Happy Villaging!! 😃

[@suenorton6032]

so love the cobblestone! I used construction paper and the printer at work. LOL. Loving it!

[@MiriamsManner]

Nice! Did you use colored construction paper or white?

[@MiriamsManner]

I wonder how it would look printed on brown paper.

[@suenorton6032]

@@MiriamsManner I used a med. brown for some and a very light grey for the others. The brown with the print looks almost like the plastic cobblestone roads you can buy.

I love this video! Very well explained and there is no money involved in the road making! Liking and subscribing!

[@margareteraab3899]

Thanks for the reminder. I did this last year but didn't do the cutouts. This year I will definitely do that for a smoother look.

[@MiriamsManner]

Good Morning Margarete, how have you been? I remember you used it in your German inspired village. Glad you enjoyed the new tip! 😃

This is really useful information and thankyou for keeping it simple..( I'm really not that computer savvy ) I'm in the process of moving house so I'm not sure if I will be able to do my village this year 😭 😭..but I will definitely print this off and attempt my first mountain back drop...thankyou again Miriam 🇬🇧 ♥

[@MiriamsManner]

You are very welcome Julie, glad to help. I hope you are at least able to put up a small village for Christmas after you get settled! 😃

[@Barbara-nm7vj]

Thank you for this video. I used your video from last year and used this cobblestone road on my 2020 village. I really liked it. Thank you! When will your next live stream or video be? I look forward to all your knowledge and input for inspiration on my 2021 Christmas village

[@MiriamsManner]

Hello Barbara, We just ended the live stream about 30 min ago. I’m so sorry you missed it but I you can watch the replay, it is already posted.

Hi I'm going in on the link provided but it's not loading up I'm wanting to print out some copies of the cobblestone road

[@MiriamsManner]

Oh no! I just tried it and it’s not working for me either. I’m so sorry, they must have recently taken it down. I have used it every year for the past 3 years.

[@juliel8720]

what kind of glue are you using to connect your foam together?

[@MiriamsManner]

I use regular white Elmer glue.

[@monicatholkes2605]

Great video! I think I'm going to have to do this! If you happen to be making new stairs this year, could you do a short how to? Trying out some stuff with the foam cutter and I keep messing up the stairs 🙃

[@MiriamsManner]

I do have a video that I do stairs in but I was planning on doing another video showing a few different ways to do stairs. I will send the link for the video that I already did. It I will try and have the new video done within the next 2 weeks.

[@78Beirut]

Hi Miriam, your displays are beautiful and your tutorials are great. This year will be my first Christmas Village. I have some questions for you, my display will be around 32 square feet, how much reindeer moss do I need? Would 4 - 8 oz bags be enough? Also, do you use only one color of moss or do you mix other colors as well, like lighter green and darker green, brown, yellow, purple? Thanks a lot.

[@MiriamsManner]

Hello, Thank you so much for the compliment. Do you plan on using any other ground cover like roads or snow? I think 4 bags might be enough if you are using other things in your landscape. If not, I would pick up a few more bags to be safe.

[@sandydemartini2479]

Thank you!!!

[@MiriamsManner]

You are welcome!

[@juliel8720]

Why not carve them into your foam?

[@MiriamsManner]

Hello Julie, can you provide a little more detail to your question? Carve what into the foam? Thanks

[@juliel8720]

the cobblestone

[@MiriamsManner]

Oh okay. The video didn’t pop up with your comment so I wasn’t sure. I do also carve cobblestone into the styrofoam. I have done that several times on my channel before. I like to post new things to show everyone lots of options for village landscapes. 😀

[@githakempeneer5770]

thnx for tips !!!

[@suenorton6032]

sent an email to you with the pics of the cobblestone on the construction paper.

[@MiriamsManner]

Thank you, I saw that. I love it on the brown construction paper. Such a great idea! 😃

[@LuvDisneyDogs]

Thanks so much. It looks great.

[@MiriamsManner]

You are welcome.😃

[@aleg3940]

Not realistic....too flat.

[@MiriamsManner]

Well, it’s definitely flat because it’s paper. 😂. This is just an inexpensive option for those who would like hardscape added to their village without having to pay for it. Im sure you know there are lots of other options for you to purchase or make if you would like a more textured look. 😃 If you don’t know, I would be happy to point you in the right direction.

[@aleg3940]

@@MiriamsManner Is It paper?Great revelation,thanks! 🤣 Inexpensive,but Unrealistic solution.....that's It!🤷🏼‍♂️

[@MiriamsManner]

If you have a more “realistic” option that is just as affordable, please feel free to share with the group. We absolutely welcome tips and best practices from everyone.

[@cadillacescalade5428]

One thing you can do is get your self that foam board from dollar tree, and cut some strips of this paper out and past it to the foam to give a more thickness to the side walk

[@cadillacescalade5428]

​@@aleg3940There's so many ways to accomplish this to get a great look regardless of being paper or not. Just gotta think outside the box and come up with an idea to make it look great!!!
