I love how much Romeo likes to decorate for different holidays! So cute

[@judyshallstrom415]

Romeo is the best. And such a happy man.

[@agohl85]

It is so depressing that 1995 is considered vintage now, lol.... I feel so old. Also, those houses are gorgeous! I love that church!

[@MsAnneofgreengables]

You have created a whole wonderful fantasy world for us, with many returning characters, including your Mom, Romeo, your houses, the hardware stores, Lowe’s (and Home Depot) and of course the candles. And the picture frames and the art. Every day is a new chapter in your book. So fun to see you and Romeo having fun after you’ve worked so hard. I love it when Romeo is in the episodes, too.

[@MsAnneofgreengables]

Just after I posted, I realized I’d forgotten Kingsley! Oh dear. I hope he won’t be offended.

[@younailedit]

It’s her own cosy tv show for us ❤

[@andreamalik2961]

I live in the UK & I'm telling you that you got a fantastic deal on the beautiful, beautiful Spode, it costs a fortune here! Also, the ceramic 'houses' cost a fortune here too. They do still make them here, absolutely all kinds of them, but they're expensive. Girl: you did GOOD! ❤

[@karenmcgarry1418]

I have two dinner plates in the Spode. They do it in TK Maxx in the UK now

[@teresarussell8264]

I have a huge full set of the Christmas tree Spode plates ,salad plates dessert plates coffee cups and saucers mugs sugar and creamer set five huge serving pieces the glasses she held up plus the big goblet glasses the whole set is for 12 . My mother in law started collecting them for me right after we married 47 years ago plus I collected pieces here and there when I found them. There were expensive here . I live in Texas. They do take up a lot of room though but I have loved them ! ❤️🎄

[@conniemorgan8402]

I think that Romeo is just as excited for Christmas as you are.. I hope you can appreciate how rare and wonderful that is.. ❤️I ❤️Romeo❤️❤️❤️

[@janetwilpan123]

I think MaCenna has to create her own line of Christmas Villages! :)

[@BrittneeLJCoffman]

I literally said “yay!” when I saw your upload! It’s really helping me get in the holiday spirit, so thank you!

[@xomacennavlogs]

YAYYY!! :)

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

Brittney are you feeling better? My cold lingered for a while. I'm good now. I saw you face on comments.

[@BrittneeLJCoffman]

@@MicheleWalkerWebb yes, I’m back to normal now! Glad you are too ☺️

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

@@BrittneeLJCoffman VLOGMAS. We can enjoy a video everyday. Take care of yourself. Happy Holidays.

[@janicewhite8076]

Romeo - gets excited for you, so nice. Kinsley trying to put that toy in your hand was so funny. She is always hilarious in Vlogmas

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

He has such a kind heart.

[@amoijoy573]

I would have grabbed a ton of the tiny bells. That can be used as a string garland for the Christmas trees & on door knobs or on outdoor trees for Christmas.

[@colleengilliam1444]

Great stuff! I love that Romero has started talking and not hiding from the camera. I remember when I first started watching you and he avoid the camera and not say a word.

[@sandieedward993]

Note ; Vintage Xmas houses and ornaments have more value when the boxes are saved also if left as originally painted 😮 Great finds 👍

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

So TRUE

[@tracygarrett3952]

They do, as with all vintage items, but MaCenna will never part with them, LOL

[@hannahhealy7610]

I really can't believe you got those houses for $6! I CAN'T wait for Texas!! Also can we do a Q & A with Romeo during vlogmas???

[@janesmith1398]

I inherited my mom's Christmas village pieces. A mixture of Dickensville, Lemax and a few Dept 56. We kept the boxes for easier and safer storage.

[@carolhubley4765]

Your so lucky to have Romeo to shop with. We should all have a Romeo…great shopper. Great vlog.

[@chucksuter6551]

Go look up dept 56 villages. There’s multiple styles, the original is glazed, dickens, city, and North Pole village are matte. They’re about as top of the line that snow villages come I wonder if that’s what you’re thinking of

[@cindymarie2475]

Kinsley is cracking me up. Trying to put her little toy in her mommy’s hand! Then growling because she doesn’t notice. 😂

[@sharoncherry]

I love the flea market shopping videos.

[@wonderpunkthrifts]

If Romeo ever wants to share his vintage clothing finds, I’m sure more of us would love to see it!

[@user-lm7kt6me2x]

Look up “California creations ready to paint” or “California creations Christmas village” - they’re ceramic pieces you can buy to paint!!! With intricate details!! A little pricy but!!!

[@user-bw4wr6jp9m]

I STILL can't believe that your vlog could ever get any better after watching you SINGLE handedly rebuilding the "cottage " Are you kidding me ?!!!!!!!!!!!! But then you bought this enchanted home in Ca.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In my DSREAMS I would live here THEN you started to renovate THIS house /outdoors(finding those chaise lounges etc.)/gardens/bathroom/partial kitchen ,doorways ,L/R /Baby L/R ALL the FURNITURE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OMG Gorgeous. The wall by the stairs the three friend's room makeovers ,YOUR OWN CANDLES . Never will there ever be another MaCenna .You are beyond the hardest working woman w/ such a magical spirit and so much of it is genetic. Your mother is so pretty and vibrant as well and such a talented lady herself Her home ,her paintings and also taste in antiques ,love of estate sales, flea markets and antiquing in general. !!!!You are also so so beautiful and your taste in jewelry and clothes is to die for EVERYTHING is to die for. There is NO channel that remotely compares to yours and I live for it. I don't even remember why I started OH now I do A) CHRISTMAS decor is so lovely I could weep and B) Poor Kinsley can't SEE his hair is so long lol Had to end on a funny note I was getting too sappy. I mean everything I say Forgot how I loved the trips to Paris and your photo shoot for your candle line too . Can not wait to see BOTH Christmas in Ca. (How you decorate outside and Christmas in Texas. All the best to you and yours. this holiday season and always .Keep vlogging I'll keep watching ! Sincerely, Donna (Don't ask how I became all those letters and numbers as a User Subscriber ?! :)

[@juliaowens4566]

Uploaded 49s ago… It feels illegal to be here this early 😂

[@donnahenson812]

I have holiday serving bowls. I use them everyday. Usually right after my dinners are cooked I transfer the food into my bowls. It makes me happy to see the colorful bowls

[@user-yx4yh9xf9v]

The type of houses you paint come from a Ceramics store. They used to be around everywhere until big box Michael's came along. I have wonderful memories with my sister making new pieces & special ornaments every year.😢 She's in Heaven now. As for what to do with leftovers... she hated dishes & put leftovers in plastic freezer baggies! Use quart or gallon size as appropriate. Everyone can SEE what's in the bag, leftovers get eaten, if not... throw bag in garbage! No extra dishes.

[@denises9426]

Drew would have loved those leather covered benches (at 11:12 in the video). The bell ornament is sooo pretty. Great haul MaCenna! 🥰❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@laurafisher6531]

Yes 🙌 I thought exactly the same

[@brendastephens5893]

MaCenna you can purchase a string of lights for the houses that will only take one plug. I have some from Michael's that are 3 and 6 light sets on one strand. This sure helps me when I set up our village. This way, I don't have to worry about extension cords or a power strip to plug everything into! Great video as always.

[@starlapowers3111]

I gave my son and DIL my entire Christmas village over the past 3-4 years. I had a downtown area, two neighborhoods, churches, ski village, parks, school, people, cars, etc … Mine were all Department 56 brand … the first snd most detailed of all villages. Enjoy!!

[@carolgilreath9416]

I have the whole Dickens Village, I don’t put them out anymore. You made me appreciate them again so thank you!!

[@turn.off.the.century]

My grandmother had that whole Christmas village set. I loved helping her set it up on the mantel each year. Happy memories 😊

[@seejillmake]

Ahhhh your flea finds were so good!! That punch bowl is gorgeous, and the gold rim around the cups with the little design 😍 excited to see your mama and the cottage 😊

[@ciara5108]

The flea market and thrift store videos are my favorite!

[@mikkileon6380]

Thank you so extremely much for doing Vlogmas each year for us. I know girl talk about a full plate and you do this for us. I thank you and I enjoy it so much. It really helps get me in the Christmas vibe. I’m really unwell and spend most of my time in bed and when you do that you don’t feel that is close to Christmas. But you help make it very real for me and it does a world of good. Thank you so much❣️❣️❣️🥰😘

[@vivsworldtrip]

yeh the cottage! I so cant wait to go back.🤠 I miss it. Cant wait to see mom. Honestly Kinsley stole the show...pawing you to sit on your lap..so cute, trying to get put her toy in your hand so you would throw it...she looks so snuggly, she loves being around you and getting involved! adorable. Safe flight to you & romeo! oh and kinsley✈🛫

[@valwatkins8220]

When you make that much of something, you can always portion it out throw it in the freezer and then take it out of it anytime and add your accoutrements on top. It’s so good and it’s always better the next day.

[@deannking4093]

Love love love. I have 6 villages and 100 houses. KEEP boxes for houses. More valuable with original boxes.

[@s.s.7348]

The bus antique shop! ❤❤❤ I agree about sports in the background, I don’t watch, but it is a comfort sound to me. Reminds me of my dad! 🥰 Sour cream or Greek yogurt makes any soup creamier, and ca tone down the spicyness or tartness, if needed!

[@bry7487]

Yes the unpainted Christmas villages!! I have such fond memories of my mom and I picking some up every year and painting them. I am so sad I can’t find them anymore 😢 I’m determined to carry on the tradition with my kids

[@wenDesigner]

Poor little Kinsley…me, me, me…look at me, I’m here, helloooooo. ❤

[@conniemorgan8402]

Kingsley, looking up at you in adoration is everything ❤️❤️

[@aprilsmith6587]

I would love to see a Kinsley only video. Where you take him for a walk and play with him for a while with his toys or maybe play chase or something or take him to the park and for a ride in the car and get him a pup cup. Just all Kinsley.

[@ashleyjohnson4202]

She* Her*

[@maryrobbio3540]

MaCenna I always enjoy your videos, but I have to say Kinsley always steals the show. I just adore her 🥰

[@northwoodfalls1403]

We have a big extended family that all live near one another and we have lots of relatives from across the country and also in Europe who more often than not over Christmas will spontaneously travel to visit so we never have any real idea who will be here or for how long. We kinda gave up on trying to do the whole turkey and fixings dinner a number of years ago. Sometimes I’ll still do one for one of the days during the holiday but what we have ended up doing is cooking a giant pot of chilli and I make batches of cornbread and/or naan bread to go along with it and it stays on the stove over the holidays so it can be heated up and people can just help themselves whenever they show up to the house, so that pot you just put in the fridge made me chuckle. It’s an unusual Christmas tradition, but it’s one we’ve really grown to love. Just helps keep the stress down and everyone loves how little pressure there is to organize busy schedules around a time sensitive meal like Turkey is. We can all just get cosy around the fireplace and chat and hang out and enjoy a satisfying meal.

[@twooldcrows-debbiemunsonha7484]

I believe the houses you are speaking of I did with my family over twenty years ago ..they were sold at Hobby Lobby made of plaster ..very detailed and were painted with acrylic paint ..I have probably around 25 different village pieces from various homes, a hotel, bakery ,candy shop , church, drug store , toy store, grocery, town hall , etc and abour 8 inches tall

[@HAppytobeHer]

No one does vlogmas like macenna! Top tier content ❤

[@stellamantikou4978]

The Christmas Village and train track/station is such a timeless, beautiful tradition to keep. I was born in Germany and this was a staple all around. Usually the making it was a diy-modelist hobbie situation so you can definitely build them too! Our tradition with my Dad was to make a Nativity model on a large plywood. Vintage figurines, manger made from scratch every year, foraging around for elements like sand, branches to act as trees,moss etc. Unforgettable. Happy Holidays everyone!❤

[@premmens]

I really like your flea market videos, you showed us a lot more this time than you usually do, I love that. I'm glad you got the houses, great score.

[@loriallison1786]

Oh, put your Santa find on the mantel above the greens swag! Better scale and ties in your entry table color vintage vibe. 😊

[@2Ruba]

Finally!! I was gonna give up and go to sleep 😂 Thank you so much for the amazing effort on making these vlogs daily .. you make me want to have a year of December! Lol😂❤ It’s 3 am where i live.

[@PjSmith]

The highlight of my day!!! I look so forward to being able to watch your show everyday in December ❤

[@triciaharvey9936]

You got an amazing deal on the Spode set. I too have always wanted nice Christmas servings pieces too, but don't have a place and purpose for it right now. I use to work for Mikasa 1oo years ago and love some of their Christmas pieces too. I should've purchased the sets back then. 😅 I'm super excited to see the cottage and your momma back on the vlog.

[@woobenstein]

Thanks for putting in the effort to do Vlogmas, it always gives me something to look forward to everyday :)

[@JL11775]

Love your flea market vids but especially this one because of the Xmas finds. I have had the It’s a Wonderful Life houses that were sold through Target for about 25 years now. I love them because I love the film. Have figures as well and hope to pass them all down to my kids one day. Enjoy your new finds!

[@shae3k]

Looking at all the Christmas stuff at the flea is making me miss your Mom! Can't wait to visit her again and finally have Christmas at the cottage ❤

[@lindaga820]

OH my gosh MaCenna you really lucked out at the flea !!! Love everything you found !!

[@flis9618]

Love the little houses! 😍 We moved a lot when I was younger but in a very small area… A couple of years ago my mum gifted me & my siblings our own miniature churches that light up that a local carpenter made true to life, they are all from different villages/cities we grew up in, so my oldest brother have one from the place he lived in for the longest time, I have on from my hometown where I grew up & still live etc.. And I love taking mine out around Christmas even though I’m an atheist because it’s just such a lovely piece of art & a reminder that home is always with me no matter where I go ❤

[@mlm7598]

The Spode and all you got was a steal..............lucky girl! Absolutely such a fun video and love your excitement for the holidays! Blessings and enjoy your Holy Holidays!

[@charlottefranklin4264]

I just love!!! Romeo!! His support for you is amazing! Happy Holidays to you both 🎄

[@debj4829]

OMG Spode!!! I love it. Unfortunately for 3 tiny Xmas decorations for the tree is $123 here in Australia. I think that punch bowl would be perfect for bread rolls in a wrap 🎄

[@cynthiamillentree4886]

I love that you always find such beautiful treasures, and bring back beautiful memories, that we all can connect to in some way. Loved coming along!

[@Funshine4u]

I got so excited to see all those vintage glass ornaments!! So beautiful!! Your Christmas village is off to a beautiful start. Those houses were an awesome buy!!

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

I got excited about them, too! I remember when I was first married and we had so many things to get to furnish our house and we couldn't afford a lot of ornaments - especially the thin, hand blown glass ones shaped like animals and people, etc. So I made sure I was at the biggest department store in our city at opening time the day after Christmas. They had long tables set up end to end for miles with big boxes filled with loose ornaments lined up on both sides. I was stuck in line behind a woman who was looking for fabric ornaments and she hated the glass ones I was there for. She would literally pick them up one by one and throw them into the next box, smashing them to smithereens, along with the one she'd it on! I was aghast and watched for a few minutes with a combination of confusion, anger, sadness, and hysteria (which I hid). I had tried to go around her but she was like a dog in the manger - afraid I'd take what she wanted. I finally convinced her I didn't want the same things she was looking for and she was breaking all the ones I wanted and she let me in front of her. It was a great sale - something like 70% off on the first day - and I bought many as I felt I could justify to the hubby! 😂 It was a great start and after a few years I ended up with enough to completely cover a large tree. 🎄

[@reneezubaty7926]

Happy Vlogmas Day 4. The village will be so beautiful. Thank you MaCenna

[@RamonaL909]

Love how excited you are for Christmas!

[@carolynassalley2764]

I too have a village and LOVE setting it up every year! I love the pieces you found! Lovely!!! ❤️

[@katieholsinger645]

Kinsley! She wants you to play so much! Lol! My dog does the same whenever I talk to anyone or am on the phone. Also- I love how into Christmas decorating Romeo is.

[@tracygarrett3952]

Is Halloween Romeo's favorite to decorate, while your is Christmas? I hope you got your mom some houses for Christmas. She seemed to love them.

[@siwelilemanqele4366]

best thing about vlogmas we see you everyday

[@dianeorth1199]

What a fun fun shopping adventure......and the village pieces are really pretty!!

[@michellesperl]

My hubby made the same chili yesterday! It was very good but yes hot🔥 thanks for sharing the recipe ❤ Happy Holidays to you both🎄

[@carolynyoung5844]

Kinsley trying to put the toy in your hand for playtime 🥰🥰🥰😂

[@brandilewis3498]

My grandmother had that set of Christmas dishes!! Beautiful finds!!

[@alexarmendariz5677]

The way your dad looked at you and hug you reminded me of my own dad. That’s the way my father reacted and after he hugged me, he said thank you when he found out it was twins (two girls). So very happy for you and your family. Think I missed what you’re having but what ever it is, see you soon little “bean”.

[@morganvoorhees5067]

Girl You killed it ..those village pieces are rare and you got them for a steal. Enjoy.. I would have loved to visit that kind of flea market due to it's options.

[@mellymuse1]

I love the village houses! What an incredible deal! My hubby and I had been painting these too since we got married and then couldn’t find them anymore. But we have 12 and love putting it out together every year

[@normacavallero9424]

Love the Christmas village sets! I've had mine for 20+ yrs! That church sure looks familiar! ENJOY!

[@carissacollier10]

Romeo is always such a treat to see, you guys compliment eachother so well. I can see why you’ve been together so long! Thank him for me, for making the sacrifice of entertaining us strangers 😂 love the vlogs!

[@threemusketeers4109]

Really love the new Vlogmas intro. So sweet. 🎄

[@karendeakin9628]

Great deal with the Spode I’m English and covert it every year the glasses here are £48 !

[@robinanderson768]

I just got my Aurate Rose collection rings and love them. Vlogmas day 4 perfect way to end my evening!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@cbgb3369]

Just have to say thank you for getting me in the mood for Xmas, Macenna - I’ve just not been feeling it at all this holiday season and watching your vlogmas videos is making it feel so much more cosy and Xmas-y for me. You’re giving me the spirit! ❤

[@meredithhanna8157]

So lucky on the Spode! 😍🤩 You will never go wrong with that classic Christmas Tree pattern!

[@michellem434]

Kinsley trying to get your attention. Love her. The Christmas scene house's are going to look so nice in your village.

[@kindlurkerfrazier5476]

Thank you for Vlogmas! I look forward to each day. Oh, and the Vlogmas inro is so charming. Great job!

[@karollL444]

I get so excited when I see a new upload ❤️ you’re the best!!

[@mariaadams6743]

Maybe you could find some battery/remote operated lights to put in the villages to eliminate the cord situation and make it easy to turn them all on at once. So cute!!!

[@DianneNash-nh5vu]

Thanks McKenna and Romeo. Always fun!😍

[@afoxgloveshandiwork]

I LOVE Christmas Spode so much! I was so excited when you showed that you got the big bowl. Great haul 😊

[@J.L.B]

Lol I had to go back too when you clipped that plastic off the crossbody. I was a little confused too what you did. Lol😂

[@juliemayfield1282]

I would edit out your morning routine & getting ready part of your videos. I ff over this part of your content😊

[@susieqbelt]

That was so fun!! Miss going to flea markets with you guys. Can't wait for Texas 👏👏🎄❤️

[@cinder8290]

You found some gorgeous Christmas stuff! I love the Christmas village, I have several beautiful ones, also the Spode dishes. Beautiful!

[@megan.badge-87]

I have the spode two tier cake stand and I love it! Can’t wait to use it this Christmas

[@nvonedge]

[@mscoffeeplans]

You found some gorgeous items for sure! I wish here in Long Island NY we had flea markets like you guys. I'd be there everyday! And Romeo likes un crustables?! You're never too old for those, I still love them haha.😅

[@karolgrabiel3838]

Walmart sells the Christmas village’s and they have the light cords also, people, ice rink etc…
