FALL DECORATING @ MICHAELS - New Fall Decor at Michales - Plus a Small Decor Haul & Decorate @ Home

[@gayemarianesfox2405]

When I saw this beautiful display, at the end, I thought of the verse in Proverbs 25:11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver. I’m so happy you are doing these little displays in the stores.

[@gracefulliving_]

Awww, I love it. Thank you Gaye. I can always count on you for encouragement and support. I really appreciate you. Have a wonderful evening.

[@janicekeisler9225]

Hi Deena! Thank you once again for sharing your talent and creativity with us! When I went to Michael’s a couple of weeks ago to pick up an online craft order, I looked around the store and was impressed with their selection and quality. When I saw the turkey molds, I had to buy the large one-almost wishing I got the small one too. My husband felt the same way Ronnie did about the molds, but was glad I bought it because they really appealed to me. I really like the brown glass bowl but wished they were glasses or salad/dessert plates. I really liked the landscape pictures they had, especially the smaller one with the turkeys. Your vignettes definitely were creative and each different, pleasing to many tastes. I’m not purchasing much more for fall as I have lots to use. Can’t wait to see your fall decorating segment. Just taking down summer/coastal decor today and need to clean. Thanks so very much for being you-you bring joy every time I get to see you!

[@gracefulliving_]

You are always most welcome for the share. I truly appreciate you being here to share it with. Oh, I’m so glad you got a turkey. I leave something be mind often and regret it so. Lol, so funny that our husbands thought the same thing. I don’t think they can see beyond the one item. We see an entire vignette come to life around one or two items. Yes, the landscape prints were so pretty too. So many gorgeous items I could have spent so much money. Lol. I should be starting fall decor in the next two videos so I hope to hear from you then. Have a great day.

[@janetstover7793]

Loved your vignettes, haul and how you styled at home. Your Biblical message was impowering. Thank you for today's video.

[@gracefulliving_]

Jane, you’re so kind. Thank you. I’m so glad you enjoyed each part of the video. I truly appreciate you being here this morning. Have a great day.

[@Thankfulbeyondmeasur]

Thank you sweet woman of God, always using the principles of being a woman of Jesus. Proverbs 31 is what we all need to be seeking to live our lives in pleasing God, our husbands if you have one and family. And yes we do use the word Love to freely without thing. I am so glad you decide to return to KZbin you really brighten up and are so real…..how refreshing. My ❤ feels the joy coming through the words you express..! Have a blessed day, until next time!

[@gracefulliving_]

Awww, you’re so kind. Yes, I do believe the same. And, I pray to be that lady each and every day, and when I fail completely I try the next day. Awww, again, you have been so kind. Thank you so very much. I too am so glad to be back and connecting with each of you once again. You’re a true blessing to me. The Lord knows. Thanks so so much for being here today. Have a wonderful day.

[@terifawcett]

Perfectly said ♥️

[@margaretceresa9571]

I’m enjoying your displays at Michael’s. They would do well to hire you for their seasonal displays. Makes us want to do the same! You have a great eye! Thank you for all you do to lift our spirits!🙏🏻💐

[@gracefulliving_]

I am so glad to hear you enjoy these videos. Awww, thank you. Your kindness is much appreciated. You are always most welcome for the share. I am grateful you are here to share it all with. Have a great day.

[@margaretceresa9571]

Thanks again! Stay positive!❤

[@kathyhartsell4383]

Good morning Deena! I enjoyed seeing the Fall Michaels vignettes! Each one offers inspiration. I especially liked the “potting table” design. Thank you for your thoughts and encouragement! I’m looking forward to seeing your home’s Fall decor! 🍂💕

[@gracefulliving_]

Good morning!☀️ I’m so glad you enjoyed it and gathered some inspiration as well. Yes, I live the terra cotta for sure. I thought it was so fun. I would love to have a wall of them. You are always so welcome for the share. I am so glad to have you here to share it all with. Have a wonderful day.

[@teresahatfield4521]

Deena. Your Michael's displays are so creative and beautiful! I know the staff at Michael's is watching you. They should hire you.because you have a wonderful talent and blessing for decorating. Your ideas are so inspiring! God bless you and your family! You are truly blessed with wonderful ideas for decorating!❤

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you. These were fun, especially the terra cotta. Ha! They are very kind to let me walk and decorate so I am thankful for that. I’m so glad you do feel inspired, makes my heart happy. Thank you again. Have a wonderful evening.

[@Skyblue-o9z]

Hello sweet Deena,, I enjoyed your decoration using calm Fall colours, you have a good eye for arranging things together, Everything is so beautiful BRAVO 🦃🌾🦃🌾🦃

[@gracefulliving_]

Hello! Awww, thank you so much. I really appreciate your kindness. I do love the more muted tones and I know it’s not for everyone but I so glad you like them. Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful weekend.

[@sylviavandegrift1388]

Love the vignettes you did the first was my favorite. I love the pheasant picture but I love pheasant anyways I find those birds elegant. I do love the words of wisdom today it’s true those three words are used loosely in this crazy world. Have a blessed week my friend Thank you for sharing ❤

[@gracefulliving_]

The first was my favorite too. I love pheasants too. And, I agree they are quite elegant. I’m so glad you enjoyed each part. Have a lovely day.

[@kayroberts7214]

Deena, you know how I love it when you do these vignettes in the stores. Beautiful decorating, as always. You are such an inspiration. Your purchase are great. Love to you from Texas.💕🍂🍂🍁🌻

[@gracefulliving_]

I am so glad you do enjoy these. There quite a few that do and it makes it all worth it. Have a wonderful day, my friend.

[@annanorth7997]

I so enjoy your vignettes!!! Your message about love was special, too. You have an eye for beautiful decor.❤

[@gracefulliving_]

I’m so glad you enjoyed each part. Have a wonderful day.

[@lindafaierson6030]

Hi Deena. Your vignettes are lovely, like always. Thanks for the ideas.

[@gracefulliving_]

You’re so kind. Thank you. I’m so glad you enjoyed this one. Thanks again for being here. Have a great day.

[@janfleetwood8146]

How sweet of Ronnie to treat you to a few of your favorites from Michael's ❤. As always I enjoyed your video and I'm looking forward to your fall decorating 😊. My favorite that you purchased were the turkey molds,so cute!! Have a blessed week. 👋

[@gracefulliving_]

He really is the sweetest. I have to be careful because he’s so giving and I never want to take advantage. I’m so glad you enjoyed this one too, Jan, as always, thanks so so much for being here and supporting my little channel. Have a wonderful evening.

[@mariawilliams1314]

Deena, Thanks so much for going to Michael’s and creating some great vignettes. I just enjoy so much seeing you pull things together so easily and make look beautiful. My store sold out of many of the “Give thanks collection” quickly and so many items are sold out online. I really liked the Turkey molds, artichoke art and the lovely pheasant piece. I am a fan of pheasants, quail and doves. These decor pieces went beautifully with your own decor. I also appreciate your words of encouragement. Take care and have a good week and weekend. 😊❤😊🍂🍁

[@gracefulliving_]

You are so very welcome. Thank you for being here to share it all with. Awww, thank you. I am so glad you do enjoy it. Oh, no! I’m so sorry they sold out. I was so surprised ours hadn’t sold out of everything yet, but they had some. I love this collection so I can certainly see why. I too am a fan of pheasants, quail, and doves. We used to have all three in our neighborhood up north. We miss that. I was so happy with what I had picked up and can’t wait to use them. Thank you again for all the love and support. Have a wonderful evening.

[@lindaboo3220]

All turned out very nice and thanks for all the wonderful ideas. I give kisses and kissy noises to my cats and with the look on their faces they "tolerate" me! LOL Have a beautiful weekend and enjoy this cooler weather and maybe even some rare light SoCal sprinkles ❤

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you, my friend. You are always most welcome for the share. I’m so glad you’re always here to share it with. Ha! I love your story about your cats. Millicent is so demanding at times. She comes and finds us throughout the day for her kisses. Thank you!!! Yes, the cooler weather has been so nice. I thought it might rain yesterday but nothing. That’s ok as long as it’s not 120. Have a great evening.

[@rossmerytuero978]

Hi sweet friend, I love the few things that you bought. I been in Michael's, and I purchased a few things also. I like that store because they carry more french country and Victorian decor like you said. I love the first vignette that you show us, beautiful! The meditation about those words "I love you" spot on with you exortation. those words are overused with no meaning. I try to care and go beyond just saying the words. Thank you for always being of help with your loving ways of sharing valuable lessons of life and being a true ambassador of Christ our Lord ♡. Blessed day, my sweet friend ♡!!!

[@gracefulliving_]

Hello! Thanh you! Oh, see it’s so hard to resist that store. Yes, I really love that they have at least one collection that lends itself to our style. It’s nice to have it, finally. Lol. Awww, thank you. I again am like you. I want to be kind and I always intend to be. I want to love people wholeheartedly. There is definitely a very fine line it seems. I just pray I am the person He needs me to be. Have a great day, my friend.

[@barbkenas5663]

How fun and lots of inspiration, thanks for sharing your talents 🥰

[@gracefulliving_]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it. I thought this one was fun too. Thank you for being here to share it with. Have a lovely evening.

[@shelleyscarborough9171]

I love Millicent!! Everything is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing your creativity!

[@gracefulliving_]

She’s so so sweet. We love her so much. You are most welcome for the share. Thank you for being here to share it all with. Have a wonderful weekend.

[@annedoucette7331]

Love watching you create these vignettes.

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you so much. I appreciate you being here. Have a wonderful evening.

[@barbaradzitko1826]

Another great shopping/decorating trip, Deena. Each of the vignettes has it own special appeal. I love the green vase and the faux turkey molds. Have a great day.

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you. I’m so glad you enjoyed coming along. I do appreciate you taking the time to watch. Oh, I liked the vas too. And, I do love my little turkeys. Have a great day.

[@revabrown2288]

Deena, I think you would do wonderfully at teaching decorating classes. I just love your ideas.

[@gracefulliving_]

You’re so kind. Thank you. I would be so incredibly nervous to do such a thing. Lol. I’m a nervous wreck knowing what to do here and I don’t have to be in person. Lol. I sure appreciate your encouragement and support. Thank you again. Have a wonderful evening.

[@grandma2twins]

Always enjoy your trips to the stores and the vignettes. I like both a lot. I splurged a bit and bought the copper tray to decorate our table. I loved the pheasant print and wanted it but instead bought the pheasants you mentioned. They remind me of my youth growing up in the Midwest. Also love the turkey candy molds. Love how you used the haul items in your kitchen. How sweet of Ronnie. Thank you again. So enjoy these videos but then enjoy all your videos. God Bless!

[@gracefulliving_]

Awwww, thank you so much. I’m so glad you enjoyed this one. Oh, that copper was so pretty. I don’t have any copper and never think to start collecting it. But, it’s beautiful. I’m so glad you were able to splurge a little. Sometimes it’s just fun to do so. I love pheasants, so I certainly don’t blame you for getting them. Thank you for your kindness. I truly appreciate it. He is the sweetest. I’m so grateful for him. The Lord has been so good to me. I appreciate your love and support. Have a wonderful night.

[@marthadelgado9772]

I'm letting you know I seen your video. I love all the different ways you decorated. You're such a sweet kind lady. Also your dog is so cute. God bless 🙏❤😊

[@gracefulliving_]

You are so kind. Thank you!!! I really appreciate you being willing to share that with me. You’ve made my day. Have a great one.

[@karenbrewer5864]

The first vignette was my favorite. I really do like the displays you do in the stores. You made some great choices in what you all bought. Those turkey chocolate molds were my favorite and the pheasant print. Thanks!

[@gracefulliving_]

I think the first one ended up being everyone’s favorite. Aww, thank you. I know there is a handful of you that really enjoy these and I’m so happy you do. Yes, I am so excited to use those molds next month. So much fun. Thanks so much for being here today. Have a wonderful weekend.

[@lajoyceneafus3021]

Thanks for your insight. I love your style of decorating.

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you so much, LaJoyce, you’re always so kind. Have a great day.

[@mariahendrickson2873]

Love the mushroom pillow. Kylie would love it. Her living room and kitchen spaces are in mushroom decor. It's so cute. I really enjoyed your videos on store decors. Very nice.

[@gracefulliving_]

Awww, Fina, thanks so much for always watching. You’re too sweet. I sure appreciate your support. Lyssa loves mushrooms too. They can be super cute and elegant in their own way. I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed these. Have a wonderful evening. Love you guys.

[@karellarsen939]

Thank you Deena! I loved all the beautiful decorating ideas today! Thank you too for the loving thoughts for us on the words, ( I Love You)! They meant a lot to me ❤

[@gracefulliving_]

Awww, you’re most welcome. I’m so glad you like them. And, I’m glad you got something from my little blurp. Thanks so much for being here this morning. Have a wonderful day.

[@michellehilliard4886]

Hey Deena! What a treat! I don’t get to Micheal’s much, so it was great seeing some of their beautiful things. I love your moulds and that Artichoke picture!😍 It’s still hot here in Louisiana, so nothing to be jealous of here. Lol My falls are extremely busy so I did a very understated fall decor this year the will seamlessly let use fall in the Christmas season. I think my 20 and 22 year olds enjoy the Christmas season more now. They look forward to all the decor, family time and coziness. Thanks for sharing, have a great week.⚜️

[@gracefulliving_]

Good morning! I’m so glad you enjoyed coming a long to Michaels. I really love their choices in decor, very much my style. Ugh, I looked ahead on the weather a couple days ago and we have some 100° days coming back. It’s been so so hot this summer and I’m pretty sure we’re all over it. I think our boys enjoy Christmas much more than fall as well. Not sure they care about fall decor. Lol. Have a great day.

[@catherinestrong4470]

As always your vignettes are so inspirational

[@gracefulliving_]

Awww, thank you. I’m so glad you find them that way. Thank you for being to share them with. Have a wonderful day.

[@candykelly3401]

So very lovely, Deena!❤️👍

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you so much. I appreciate it. Have a great day.

[@teresabruce3965]

Deena, thank you for making this video! I love when you decorate & style in the store. I just realized how much time & effort on your part it takes to make these videos. By the time it takes to gather everything, style it, show the pricing, take everything apart, place it back on the shelf, edit, and so many other things you have to do to make the video, you really have a lot of time & work In completing it. So, thank you Deena! I really appreciate you!!! God bless!!!

[@gracefulliving_]

Of course. You are most welcome. It does take time, but so many of you truly seem to enjoy them so it makes it all worth it. It’s fun if I stick to a plan and don’t go off thinking about this and that and this again. Lol. I appreciate your appreciation of the process. Have a great day.

[@BobbiGroon]

I ❤it all !I work at Michaels and love all you have done !I like to think I do a pretty good job with decorating and the Give Thanks line is gorgeous but oh my word you really make us want to think out of the box as I never ever would have pulled all the mushroom items together with the terra cotta .Absolutely brilliant !!!You represent Michaels very very well so we thank you from the bottom of our hearts 😊.You are so talented ,what a gift God has Blessed you with ! I love the opening reading !

[@gracefulliving_]

Awwww, thank you, Bobbi!!! This comment is so special to me. Thank you!!! I’m so glad you really like what I did. The Terra cotta! I LOVE it! I really wanted to decorate right there on their wall. Lol. But, I didn’t want to be in the way. The mushrooms are not my thing but I thought they would work so perfect with the color story. Thank you for your kindness! It really means so much to hear this from you. So glad you enjoyed it all. And, thank you for being here. I hope you have a great evening.

[@BobbiGroon]

@@gracefulliving_ LOL,mushrooms aren’t my thing either and that was darling yet sophisticated for mushrooms ,yes brilliant is the perfect word !I think you should think about a part time job ,they usually do as little as you want and you get 30 percent off everything except clearance and yes that does mean 50 percent off as well.

[@lisamarutz9772]

I love using the artichokes alongside the pumpkins, I’m so going to do this🧡

[@gracefulliving_]

Yes, I really liked them paired together too. I love artichokes in our kitchen. I’m so glad you felt inspired. Thanks for being here. Have a great day.

[@alisonsmith7162]

Hi dear Deena and Ronny (hope i spelt his correctly), it's lovely to see the creativity God's given you at work. One thing that you do, that helps me be more selective about buying decor, is having a small colour palette year round, so things can last across seasons and it limits bringing random beautiful things in. We're just starting spring here, but i hope its cooling off a bit for you.

[@gracefulliving_]

Hello! Awww, thank you. Yes, I do think having a color pallet that is on the minimal side does help and keeping that pallet going on throughout a home is even more helpful because of being able to transfer decor from one space to the next. Oh, Spring. If you don’t mind me asking where are you from? I love the idea of you watching my little channel from afar. Thank you so so much. We really do appreciate your love and support. Have a wonderful day.

[@sarahsmith5998]

Sweet video. Thanks for the great ideas.

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you!!! You are always most welcome for the share. Thanks for being here. Have a great evening.

[@bmakibbin]

Your hair looks so pretty! Love the way you have it styled.

[@gracefulliving_]

Awww, thank you so much. I really appreciate you saying so. Have a great evening.

[@eileendestefano4253]

Love your work!❤

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you so so much. Have a great day.

[@robinrobertskidcertoons3168]

Greetings from Katy, Texas!!! It’s hot but I’m already finished decorating for Fall😂😂😂

[@gracefulliving_]

Oh, Robin, you are so ahead of me. I just haven’t got it done yet. The weather has not been encouraging. Lol. You all in Texas are in the same boat as we in Cali. It’s so hot!!!! Still. Crazy! Thanks for being here today. Have a wonderful evening.

[@terifawcett]

I almost bought the faux turkey mold. Now I wish I would’ve 😊 I did buy the pheasant!!

[@gracefulliving_]

Awww, you’re not the only one who has wished that today. I’m so sorry. I am sure your pheasant will make up for it. The colors were so pretty. Thanks so much for being here today. Have a wonderful evening.

[@wilmaspraggins3023]

I enjoyed this, Have a great week!

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you! I’m so glad you did. Have a wonderful evening.

[@pattibass7749]

Glad you went to Michaels,I have not been there in awhile. I LOVE the turkey molds I hope mine has them. You are the best

[@gracefulliving_]

Oh, yes, go check it out. That whole aisle is spectacular. I could spent hundreds of dollars there. Thank so much being here to share it with. Have a wonderful day.

[@leamorrison9407]

I love these store inspirational videos! Your 1st vignette was my favorite for sure. I thought you may have considered the green Gather pillow as an addition to your home as well. Have a wonderful day!!!!

[@gracefulliving_]

Good morning! ☀️ I’m so glad you do enjoy these. I know there is a large handful of you that really do and that makes it all worth while. You know, I did consider that pillow. When I first saw it I thought it was gorgeous. I might have to go back. Lol. Thanks for being here this morning. Have a great day.

[@cindypatterson4752]

Absolutely love both vignettes but my favorite was the second one with all the terra cotti!!!!!! Precious precious Millicent just love her to pieces❤️🐾🐶 our two furbabies love the faux kisses to all day everyday lol❤️🐾🐶 Still hot in Texas hopefully it will cool off soon looking forward to the cooler weather it definitely puts a pep in my step. Y’all have a blessed and beautiful week ahead sweetie take care ❤️

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you!! Oh, yes, I love all the terra cotta too. She is so precious. Her little eyes kind of roll back when she gets her kisses. Lol. We’ve had a break in the weather, thank you Lord!! But, we have some more 100° heading our way. Not looking forward to it at all. Have a great day, friend.

[@cecilemorgan6579]

Lovely, like you ❤

[@gracefulliving_]

You’re too sweet for words. Thank you. Have a wonderful day.

[@vernayoung2467]

Deena, your video was a timely reminder about the importance of meaning what we say and saying what we mean. The words "I Love You" are so casually used these days that l often wonder if people truly understand the meaning of what they are saying. Thank you for another thoughtful video.

[@gracefulliving_]

Awww, thank you for your kind comment. I’m so glad you appreciated the little encouragement segment of the video. You’re so so right. I pray I make sure I know what I’m saying and when. In His name! Thanks so so much for being here. Have a wonderful day.

[@terifawcett]

I agree. Have you noticed the word “I” is eliminated? I told my daughter it takes away from the personal meaning in “I love you”. Is that making sense?

[@peggyekena9966]

I really like your artichoke display.

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you, Peggy. I like it too, but I love the look of artichokes so that’s probably why. Thanks so much for being here today. Have a great evening.

[@victoriabourgeois3273]

Oh boy, one of my favorite videos. Love all of them, but this is you creating on the fly. Back to video. Tfs cheers p.s. as I have been mentioning for the past couple years,these managers need to pay you to style for the seasons. Their sales would go thru the roof.

[@gracefulliving_]

You’re so sweet. Yes, definitely on the fly. I was actually so glad Michaels is a smaller store. Lol. You are always most welcome for the share of course. I’m so thankful that you are here to share it all with. Awww, you’re so kind to say that. I know I have talked with some of the managers and it’s kind of out of their hands. They would love me to leave behind what I do but we would have to talk to corporate and I haven’t looked into that. One day, maybe. Have a wonderful evening.

[@leochavez7184]

Beautiful

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you so so much.

[@EllenGill-z6t]

Hey. I did not know for awhile that you had started posting full videos again. I am so happy to see you. You have been missed (I have watched the shorts, however).

[@gracefulliving_]

I’m so sorry, Ellen. It’s so good to hear from you once again. Thanks for watching my shorts and coming back to watch my new videos. I do appreciate your continued support. Have a great evening.

[@lindahensley1646]

Beautiful haul Deena!! I would love to have the faux turkey candy molds. May have to purchase these. I also love the pheasant picture and the way you displayed it. I was looking at the artichokes at my Michaels and they were in pretty rough shape, so i didn't purchase any of them. Love watching you decorate, you have such great talent.

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you so much. Oh, yes, definitely go check and see. I think they are such a perfect little addition. The pheasant picture is really very pretty too. I love it up against the silver. I feel like it gives it even more of a vintage look. I do agree about the artichokes there. I think you could find better for sure. Thank you for your kindness. I really appreciate it so very much. And, I truly appreciate you being here to share it with. Have a wonderful weekend. See you next week.

[@johngrayson8431]

I agree, you shouldn’t buy new things every year. Unfortunately they keep coming out with such great things. It makes it hard not to buy. Most of my decor I’ve had for 25 years or more. I only buy things I really love, especially if they are pricey. You have such wonderful taste in decorating. I love everything you do. Gayle

[@gracefulliving_]

Gayle, I am with you. I don’t like to make a purchase unless I really, REALLY love it. Ronnie always repeats my words if he sees something he likes but doesn’t get it, “I don’t love it so I’m not getting it!” Lol. Michaels always gets me, seriously! I love their decor most seasons. I can’t wait to see what they do for Christmas, or maybe I can. Lol. Thanks so much for your kindness, always. Have a great day.

[@ourtimberhome]

Enjoyed your video today, as usual! You are so talented to be able to stage in the stores! In my last video I mentioned that I had two "quail" bowls on my tablescape??? But after seeing you with the oval picture of the "pheasant" with the long tail...I am convinced my two quail have turned into PHEASANTS! LOL

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you! I’m so glad you did. Thank you for always being here to not only watch but leave a comment as well. Uh oh. Lol. Either way I love them both. Lol. Have a great evening.

[@maryrose7842]

Well done 👏 Perhaps you could reframe the pheasant in a better quality frame at some point. I have cardoons growing in my garden. They are a close cousin of the artichoke. I used to dry them for floral arrangements but haven’t bothered in a while. 😬

[@gracefulliving_]

Thank you! Oh, yes! Good idea. I honestly don’t mind it. But, I like to be truthful to all of you in case you go in and find it to look very different in person than on screen. Oh, how interesting. I’ll have to look them up. But, drying them sounds so neat. I love using natural elements in my decor. Thanks so much for being here today. Have a great evening.

[@denisemckee6416]

❤what a good example of those three words "I LOVE YOU" & yes I mean what I say when I say it but true of me there are some that I love more than others (we all do) but Jesus loves us all the same❤. Oh OXOXOX from fur baby girl Milicen. I really enjoyed that ❤ thank you Deena, also everything you purchased is really nice 😊 Yes I am done at my home and the church. It also has been cool enough here to go without air-conditioning for 3 or 4 days ,back on today. I have tosay you hair style is BEAUTIFUL today ❤

[@denisemckee6416]

Thank for your loving-kindness towards your KZbin family 😊

[@gracefulliving_]

Yes, I believe each of us has those we are definitely most close to, and that’s perfectly ok. Ha! She is such a sweetie and surely loves her kisses. Thank you. I really liked my little haul too. And, I can’t wait to use it all. Oh, how I long for a day with no need of air condition. We have a couple more 100° days in the forecast. Awww, thank you so much. You’re very kind. Have a wonderful evening, my friend.

[@gildastigliano7936]

are your dogs Boston terriers? they are my new favorite breed!

[@gracefulliving_]

Good morning! ☀️ Yes, they are. We have two girls now but have had two boys before them. We just love them so so much. We reduced our boys and tried the puppy route with the girls. Either way they have been such sweethearts. And we’ve loved loved loved them all.

[@donnacampbell1641]

Deena, I really love your purchases. They are so you and fit into your home so well. I’m like you and have a mainly neutral color palette in my home but I do love bringing color at certain times of the year for a brief periods. I’m excited to tell you that the repairs from hurricane Beryl are really proceeding along. The roof has been fixed and all of the interior has been repaired and looks so fresh and clean. My oldest daughter Rebecca and my granddaughter Rachel came over last Saturday and helped me put things back in order and clean up the Dust. I have come a long way on my health but I’m no longer able to do a lot of the things I used to do. I was in the hospital five times last year and had two surgeries. So I really appreciated their help. We even put out my fall decor which made me so happy even though it’s still burning hot in South Texas. have you heard about Swedish death cleaning. I know it sounds morbid but it’s really great. The theory is that you get rid of things so your family does not have to deal with it when you’re gone. I went through that when my mother passed away and it was so heartbreaking to go through all her things and she never got rid of anything for 50 years. It was so terrible. Anyway I have been doing that for the last couple years. Another KZbinr came up with the best idea and I have been doing it for 18 days. She started a 30 day challenge where you only set your watch for five minutes and D clutter at least five things. It is so easy and it’s even fun. My two daughters are doing it too so we send each other a picture each morning of the before, the after and what all we got rid of that day. I’m amazed at how much difference this makes. another project I did yesterday that was so fun is that I have always wanted matching hangers in my closet. Rebecca had done hers and she accidentally overbought hangers so she had enough for me to redo my closet so as I rehung things I also got rid of things I don’t wear and don’t like in my closet looks so good and can actually breathe. Well I guess I talked enough. Thank you again for your lovely videos. Love in Christ

Oh Donna, Ronnie and I have been so worried about you and have prayed you were ok. I’m so glad to hear from you and I know he will be so pleased as well. We missed hearing from you last week. Sounds like you have been quite the busy bee, but in a fun and good way. I’m so so glad your girls do these things with you. I love the sharing of before and after. I had planned on do some decluttering myself today, and now I feel even more inspired. I love the 5 minute timer idea. There are times I feel so behind and really get hard on myself so that idea might help. Thank you for always being here and sharing with me. Have a wonderful day.

Your displays are creative however those prices are ridiculous! Most decorative items are made of very inferior product.

Thank you! Yes, a lot of people talk about how high prices are at Michale’s. I would never ever think of purchasing something full price there at all. All of their fall decor is 50% off but still…and, very true about the product. I do appreciate you being here to watch. Have a great evening.
