Some people look forward to the Hallmark Channel for Christmas but hands down Lifestyle with Melonie Graves is my favorite channel all year long. As always, everything is beautiful. See you tomorrow💗🎄

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Wow, thank you! 🥹♥️🙏🏽

[@krissytg6833]

@@Lifestylewithmgyes love your holiday videos ❤. BTW, what lip color are you wearing? It’s pretty.

[@fourthgenquilter9801]

Thank you, Melonie, for bringing joy during complicated times, and for reminding us all that there are happy memories yet to be made! I am hosting my last Fall-Themed Dinner tonight and then Christmas is “ON!” 🎄🎄🎄❤️❤️❤️

[@katinakelley6492]

I don’t know if someone already suggested this name for the dog but “Snowball” is my vote

[@brynajones8076]

I should have read the comments first...Snowball came to mind for me as well! Twinning!

[@lisafout3504]

I agree the monochromatic tree is so elegant. Everything is so beautiful! Mistletoe would be a cute name for the dog.

[@yolandahilliman4493]

I look forward to these videos every year.

[@DeannaMaurice]

Winter would being fitting for the pup!

[@alethiamcknight3709]

First let me say again, how very happy I am, that you, and your family made it through hurricane Milton. As always, you did a beautiful job decking the halls. I’m in love, with the village. The ski scenery is my absolute favorite! My, family, and I are a ski family. So, once a year, with our children, and their spouses, and grandchildren in tow. We leave the south, and head to the mountains, for some fun in the snow. Which is why, the first name, that came to mind for your adorable little bog is Snowball. I look forward to the 12 days. Thank you for being you. ❤❤🌲❤️❤️

[@JamaicanGems]

"Mistletoe" would be a cute name for the fur baby🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@JamaicanGems]

Ty, in on the couch😂😂😂😂 I had to rewatch.

[@laurenslaughter2440]

Love the new furbaby keeping Ty company on the couch! She needs a festive name - Joy! Obsessed with the new tree topper and monocromatic tree, so classy. And I WILL own one of those villages one day; I’m speaking it into existence!

[@geraldinehoward-perkins4675]

Queen, the tree is totally perfect - the combo of shiny, monochrome, and sparkling is timeless. I love how you created the village and mantle wreaths. Lastly, the cute frame ornaments. 💜

[@meldog7925]

Everything looks so magical. I think his name should be snowball.

[@PeaceLikeNoOther_DeidreParker]

That is quite the tree 🎄 Stunning! And you walked up that ladder and sat across the top like it was nothing 😅 The star on top was the perfect finish. The fur baby looks like he should be called Shaggy 🤩

[@donnawilson3745]

The way you own that ladder!! Look at you up there without a care in the world. Thank you for your inspiring videos

[@clarissayarber7075]

Look like the elf has the right idea. Get cozy on that soft sofa and enjoy the fire The 1st day is a wonderful kickoff to the series. How can it get better

[@summerwinter4]

Fantastic! If Warm & Cozy is what you were after, you accomplished it! BTW, I Love your hair!

[@MariaRivera-tw5wr]

Everything is so beautiful and for your fur baby i would suggest snowball because he is so fluffy and white. I enjoy watching your videos.

[@debcadman5784]

I finally found Ty beside the fur baby on the sofa! 😁

[@marshahaas1422]

❤❤❤ The theme this year. Everything is so cozy and sparkly. I saw Ty hanging out with your new soft doggy. Maybe the dogs name should be snowy or fluffy. I bet a few other pups in the house got snuggles too.😊 Thanks for sharing!!🎄

[@migdaliaserrano1826]

Hi Melonie. Love your theme for this year’s decorating. Hope to one day have a village collection like yours. Love the Bethlehem star. It’s magical. Ty is on the sofa close to the adorable furry dog. Have a blessed weekend.

[@saras.6641]

Wow this is a gorgeous family room the Christmas tree is stunning looks like something in a high end New York Christmas window! The Christmas village is so cool love love love the ski resort! It’s all just beautiful and a place you could just cozy up with a cup of hot chocolate and enjoy looking at the Christmas decor! The little dog reminds me of coconut the American girl doll dog that’s what I’d name him. Cute little elf that is hiding by the pillow.

[@brittanygrebinger7993]

I'm always so excited for your holiday videos! Ty looks super cozy on the couch next to the new fur baby❤️. I absolutely can't wait to decorate the tree with my husband and create more new memories.

[@julissarodriguez4807]

I like the name Snowball for your new furry friend 🙂 and as always your Christmas decor is absolutely beautiful 😍

[@kathrynriggs2489]

Mel, everything is so warm and cozy and makes me ready to get started! I have a ton of D56 village pieces in the attic, that I used to display all of each and every year. I've done the village tree ( made myself), put holes in my hutch for cords and done an entire village scene under my tree in the sun room. Those displays took so much time as I crafted backgrounds every year. You would be amazed at what I can do with a hot knife and sheets of styrofoam. I know content myself will pulling different pieces out to display in small groupings. They are talking about snow in Michigan this month, so I'm starting outdoors!

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Yesssssss…I had those too Kathryn!! I ended up donating my D56 village when we moved into this house ♥️🎄

[@kathrynriggs2489]

@Lifestylewithmg I donated a lot of stuff last year but I can not make myself thin out those pieces. Dept 56 Retirement day was huge for my bff and I. Up early and out to the stores to find the pieces we did have but felt they were necessary, lol

[@teresadennis6584]

The tree is breathtaking! The villages are really growing on me; especially now that you have added to your collection. I usually use neutral colors but this year, I have decided to use a deep burgundy as my signature color. I think I saw Ty behind the new Ski Resort. I hope I am correct.

[@DBrooks-i3w]

My name suggestion for your fur baby is snowball! 😊

[@patriciaterry5539]

Stunning! Simply beautiful!

[@deirdremeinke7890]

BEAUTIFUL work. I've been watching for years, and I look forward to your 12 days each year!! P.S. you have inspired me to go gray! I love your hairstyle.

[@arnellboyd5859]

🎄Beautiful as always! SnowRiley is a sweet name for your furry friend. ❤😊

[@nikkiburton8811]

Your house looks great. I love it. The color for this year is so rich. Your fur baby name should be snow snow.

[@geecollins4134]

Hi Melonie I almost thought your fur baby was real in the intro clip. Ty the Elf is sitting on the sofa near your new fur baby. I like the name Mistletoe for your new fur baby 🥰

[@kathygraves4583]
