I know, I know, 1st of December is tomorrow, but... I thought I'd be fine welcoming it a few hours early as it's been so cold and frosty today! What are you most excited about this coming month? 💕

[@aurorag.7846]

My birthday in two weeks 😅

[@The_Wandering_Nook]

I personally get too excited and end up welcoming new seasons and months a tad early too 😊

I am most excited for snow!

[@lunawolf8436]

The wreath turned out great! It was a lot prettier than I was expecting

[@ana33happy]

Hello! I'm Ana and I'm 13 years old. I recently discovered your channel and I love all the videos you make! I find myself in all what you say and I find a lot of strength, joy and hope when I see your videos. Thank you so much for everything you do and please don't stop! Happy December full of magic and light! ❤️ 🎄❄️

[@tanyagrala4281]

Just wanted to say that wreath was perfect and AMAZING.

[@dejah85]

So much healing happens in the TRUTH of slow living🤍 As always, such a beautiful video, thank you!! Hope you have a lovely day.🥰

[@IamDaria]

Aah thank you so much! Hope you're having a wonderful day too! 😊

[@leslieW5177]

The wreath is beautiful…every gift we reap from Mother Nature is beauty. ❤️🌲 🙏

[@IamDaria]

Aah it was so wonderful to make it out of foraged pieces! It was a lovely experience! 🌿🥰 Thank you!

[@y.y._4600]

Как же я люблю эти Ваши лесные прогулки. Природа в Ваших видео так величественна прекрасна и Вы среди неё такая хрупкая и нежная. И венок у Вас получился замечательный, как впрочем и всё, что я вижу в Ваших видео ❤❤❤

[@IamDaria]

Спасибо большое 🥰

[@johndayan7126]

Beautiful and peaceful. The oak trees hold onto their leaves longer because the Oak King does not want to surrender to the Holly King. 🌳🍂🍃 Thank you for another wonderful video. 💖

[@IamDaria]

Aah oaks do bring me so much joy right now, I hope they stay strong even longer!

[@user-oz7qg2nx1d]

I'm truly enamored with your cinematic, beautiful and creatively crafted videos that bring a sense of serenity and euphoria allowing me to clear my head after a rather stressful day at school followed by a staggering list of school work that's why your channel has been my only escape that transports me into a magical new world every time with its glory. ❤

[@IamDaria]

aah thank you so much! I hope you find some more moments of peace and good luck with your schoolwork! 😊

[@eugeniaivaschenko7799]

Thank you for the beauty and calmness.

[@oldcrowcreations]

I love that you talk about the smell of the seasons. I notice it every time I go out. I’m not a fan of winter either, but some smells can help me to embrace the season more. While there are many things I that are wonderful about December, I struggle emotionally. I like to collect fresh greens and pinecones but I usually put them around in bowls and make a swag for the front door. I haven’t attempted to make a wreath. Yours came out beautifully 💕Like you said, any art or craft takes time and practice to hone your skills. Thank you for sharing your beautiful video. 🥰

[@angelagrimes8237]

Happy December! Your wreath WAS perfect! ❤ I mean what does ‘perfect’ even mean? No one persons’ idea of perfect is the same. I love you can freely forage. For those of us in the city and u we urban areas often Christmas tree lot owners will all people to collect small foliage that feel off of sold trees for free. Neighbors with holly in their yards or ivy may let you have a few snips in exchange for a holiday treat…home baked! Lots of ideas!

[@Escudera_de_Roble]

😍💕🌲Beautiful video, Daria! And your wreath looks fantastic!!👌It has the unique charm of something made by yourself from scratch.😊 It's true, we can already smell Winter in the air, the rain, even the sun in those cold, crisp mornings... And I love the cosiness and warmth of home. 🤗 Time to bake those yummy biscotti! 😋😉 Thank you for these wonderful moments you share! 🙏👏👏👏😃👍😘

[@IamDaria]

Thank you so much! I can't say I'm 100% happy with the wreath, but it still took its place on my door this morning. I was tempted to tweak it some more, but for the fear of ruining decided to keep it as is. 😄 Happy December!

[@literary1]

The lovely thoughts and aesthetic of this video were so nice to watch after a busy day of work and errands! It's hard to believe December is here. I saw three dark-eyed juncos under our oak tree in the back yard today--that means the cold weather is here to stay. Blessings from Lisa in the U.S.

[@IamDaria]

Thank you so much dear Lisa! Enjoy your December 🎄

[@anamikasharma4195]

sending you so much peace and love🤍🤍

[@athinoullasofokleous4883]

I like the wreth looks so much better from natural leafs

[@annasenkova9828]

Your videos heal me. They give you the strength to cope with the dark days now. Thank you very much!❤️

[@shiorisadventures]

Hi Daria, lovely video as always. Loved your green winter wreath, it looked really lush and the biscotti looked delicious! 😋❤

[@IamDaria]

Thank you so much! 🥰

[@mountain_girl6083]

Beautiful wreath 🌿🍒🌿

[@vlad-mundi]

I need more cozy videos and atmosphere like this! It's too bloody cold 🥶 The wreath turned out really good, well done 😊 As someone going on artistic endeavours every now and then I really appreciated that acknowledgement that it all takes a lot of time to get good and what's important is persevering and doing it because you like to do it rather some abstract goal or milestone. Lovely video! Well done 😊

[@IamDaria]

I’m glad that message resonated with you! 🥰

[@paulvandevlasakker9589]

The wreath you made looks amazing! 😊🎄👍

[@IamDaria]

[@carolmadere8300]

I needed that little talk about persevering. I’m trying to make amigurumi (crochet animals). It’s a work in progress -on myself mostly.

[@IamDaria]

Good luck with your creative project! This sounds so wonderful 😊

[@山川舞夏-k8g]

This was such a lovely video and made me realize the importance of slow living. I can’t believe it’s already December and I could easily imagine this month would be over before I knew it if I didn’t enjoy being in the moment but you’ve reminded me that so thank you very much! One more thing I wanted to say is your wreath is absolutely beautiful 🥰 Please keep warm and have a lovely winter 🫶

[@IamDaria]

This year has just flown by too fast! Enjoy every moment of it. I hope you have a beautiful December! 🎄

[@halfwaytocozy]

🍪What a lovely video and tasty biscuit. Thank you for the recipe. I should try baking it myself! 😍

[@callielee]

so calming and lovely as always xx trying to wake myself up to the prospect of Christmas as well...im just not ready yet!!

[@IamDaria]

I know what you mean! We've been bombarded with Christmas since 1st of November, so it's hard to resist, but doesn't feel quite right just yet at the same time! 😅

[@septimahora89]

What a lovely wreath! Thank you for the inspiration. I’ll have my next walk in the woods and collect all I need for mine ;)

[@IamDaria]

Aah I'm glad I inspired you to make your own. It's quite easy to make, though making it perfect isn't quite as easy 😅 Good luck!

[@tetyanabeyer1426]

Thank you Daria for such beautiful and inspiring video; beautiful nature, delicious hot chocolate with cake and very beautiful wreath! Lovely as always ❤

[@IamDaria]

Thank you for watching!

[@connorwalsh220]

Daria, would you please share a playlist of your favorite soft music (pieces and composers) for slow living in the countryside? I like all the songs you use in your videos. I left the urban hustle 3-4 years ago and one consequence is my taste in music has really shifted towards classical, soundtracks, jazz and ambient music. pop is just kind of irritating to me now and I can only tolerate it in tiny doses. I find that music that I used to enjoy causes me a bit of anxiety, now that I'm used to extreme quietude and solitude. I will share a few of mine: I really like Joe Hisaishi, he produces anime soundtracks for Studio Ghibli. Traditional folk music, this is a big genre. The Transatlantic sessions, which is a collection of albums featuring traditional folk music (mostly celtic) performed by incredible artists. Vince Guaraldi trio: A Charlie Brown Christmas is a great soundtrack album that I always revisit this season. Ambient and electronic music can be nice but it feels a bit odd in a rural setting, immersing myself in computer generated sounds as well as the vast empty desert where I live. Not all ambient music is electronic though. a lot of the ambience playlists on youtube are cheaply produced. I'm thinking of the Lord of the Rings Ambience pieces, the production is cheap and it gets boring to listen to. When it comes to classical I usually select a playlist, I love harp music. I don't really know who's who in the world of classical. I could especially user pointers here. Often times classical is too tense and too formal to be considered soft. I absolutely cherish the short lukewarm sunny days of the American Southwest, and the frigid star-lit nights of the high desert. I don't want winter to end, I am always so sad to see it swept away by the march winds. I hope you enjoy the wonderful short days of December and stay warm!

Being from tropical region we don't get snowfall at all...winters are still super chilly but in my part of world Christmas is not celebrated.....but I wish to celebrate Christmas once in my life in a snowy region with beautiful golden lights and snow reflecting red and green🍁🎄

[@IamDaria]

Oh I hope you get to visit one of the Christmas countries at some point! There are so many places that get decorated so beautifully, and though we don’t get much snow in this part of the UK, it still feels pretty festive! ✨

[@madeleineg2049]

Thank you for the video. Mostly I look forward to the review that comes at the end of the year. The television does many such shows at the end of the year and I tend to look back too at such a time. Normaly I have my head very firmly in the future. But the end of the year is the one time, I often look back at what happened. I plan for the future then too. Often my plans become moot before spring had even started, but it gives me a time to watch how I had changed, maybe even grown, that year and how my priorities became clearer over time. And what mistakes I should try to avoid next year. But most of all, I'm just curious how things work. How they influence each other. And that is visible best during a review. At least for me. Best wishes from europe

[@IamDaria]

These are all such lovely thoughts and reflections! This time is truly perfect for recognising your achievements, how far you’ve come, and assessing what can be done better! 🥰

I wish I could live a cozy life.. I am so happy to see your lifestyle and I dream to live one day🥺 people, society and city is only giving me depression and anxiety. I feel no life inside me. I'm fed up now, I keep myself isolated in my room most of the time and have made my own little beautiful world here.💖but I hate communicating with people. Everyone just misunderstands me. And I don't like their mentality. I feel like I'm alien in a wrong planet. 🥺🙇‍♀️
