The trinket boxes could be used on your buffet also as risers or to hold items or food. Maybe condiments for your tea? I can’t wait to see it all together!

[@The_Curated_Life]

Tina, they would be cute to hold the tea bags.

[@TyGuy67]

Sherri, I'd love to see a video with your wreath making tips, especially how to make a beautiful statement ribbon. Love your curated style ❤️🍁🐿️

[@The_Curated_Life]

I'll be sure to include the wreath making party in a video which should include a lot of wreath inspo. Thank you for watching! ❤❤❤

[@kayscheuer9159]

I agree , some homes do look just like the store 😉

[@pamwalters6558]

I think those plans sound so fun and I can’t wait to see it all.

[@The_Curated_Life]

I am excited, Pam! 🎄

[@msavp4481]

This the season when your home comes alive with holiday beauty and I’m here for it! 7 events? Wowsers! You can do it!

[@The_Curated_Life]

Sue, I am hoping I can stay on task and get everything planned with little to no stress. Fingers crossed!!! ❤❤❤

[@robertajones6427]

Love the teacups!

[@carrieh922]

7 events??? Wow you are my hero!! ❤❤❤

[@The_Curated_Life]

Carrie, let's just hope I'm able to carry through with all of them. I LOVE entertaining but hopefully I'm not putting too much on myself. ❤❤❤

Can't wait for wreath video

[@nonisnest9718]

I love a list maker!! In our house the first item is always, “Make a list” so you have one thing accomplished right away. I am now going to be on the lookout for silver plate after seeing your video.

[@barbkenas5663]

I would love to see the wreath making party, sounds like fun!

[@The_Curated_Life]

Barb, I am planning to have the wreath-making party the week before Thanksgiving and I will be sure to include everything in a video. ❤❤❤

Linda, you are too sweet. Thank you.

[@amyweaver7413]

Loved this video and all your planning. I loved your purchases and all your party ideas.❤

[@constancepentzer3017]

I loved seeing how you prepared for your holiday events. I used to greatly enjoy decorating for Christmas. Now I don’t get much done. Since my kids won’t be around and my health isn’t good, I’m not motivated to even get my tree up. I may just put up the tiny tree that I had given my mother. It’s only about a foot tall and I had made all the tiny ornaments from clay. Thanks for the inspiration and entertainment. 😊

[@The_Curated_Life]

You can live through me, Constance. 😊 I'll do enough decorating, thrifting and holiday styling for the both of us! Thank you for watching.

[@constancepentzer3017]

Thank you so much! I will certainly enjoy watching you and celebrating the season vicariously through your efforts.

[@cvonsutphen]

*No Need to Re-Invent the Wheel* . I love your philosophy on event planning, find a system that works and run with it. I'm late to the game on my Autumn decorating as I've been immersed in a bedroom make-over. My brain and spirit needed to do something creative today so I banged out seven arrangement, switched pillow covers and throws and now my house is a mess but Autumnally styled. It was 70 degrees yesterday in Upstate NY, today is 43 and rainy, great inspo for getting my cozy on.

[@nohrad1935]

I was away for the past month and didn’t realize you split your channel. I’m glad I found this one. I enjoy your styling videos!

[@The_Curated_Life]

Thank you! I thought splitting the two would be the best thing. And I am LOVING this channel and cannot wait to post more content for the holidays!! ❤❤❤

[@gailallen2895]

I watch the other channel but this one popped up today. I admire people that are so relaxed about hosting..it is a gift. So enjoyed your theme last year for Christmas. Very few thrift stores here and not much to choose from. Looking forward to all your events.🍂

[@jessicamoreno1892]

It really gets me that dishes at the thrift store are so expensive 😮..can’t wait to see the thanksgiving decor all set up 🧡

[@normajeanplusone9772]

Such beautiful ideas and items. I need to really get as organized as you. The wreath party sounds like fun. Looking forward to seeing it all set up.🎄🦃

[@susanbenton8181]

I hope you make a video of the wreath making party. What a great idea...

[@The_Curated_Life]

I sure am, Susan. Should be posted next week. I am excited to share the process. ❤❤❤

[@kathycarter1553]

Sherri, great video I have the same two devil egg dishes in which are vintage. I have had mine for a great while and love them, too. Thanks for sharing and have a great week.

[@The_Curated_Life]

Kathy, these are extremely heavy and I LOVE them so much! ❤❤❤

[@ST-hc9zm]

This is really starting to get me excited for the Holidays! I've always wanted to host a tea party with mixed-matched (is that the word LOL) sets and let everyone take home their own set. I have one thrift store that prices dishware and glasses about 10 - 25 cents a piece. Seeing stacks of dishes makes me sad. Wish they would price them more reasonably - while I know we appreciate older items, you could buy new things cheaper.

I went on a Christmas tour of homes last year in Concord, NC. It was so much fun and I would go again, didn’t see all the homes last year.

[@The_Curated_Life]

Raleigh also has a Christmas home tour that I would LOVE to visit but it conflicts with another holiday event I'm having.

[@susanvelez6534]

Yep I’m simple I have the red turkey plates just the plates and then I use our clear glass for the rest of the place setting. The silver plate idea is great I have 6 place mats that look like leaves and I’m having 12 people to host. Any ideas for me darling we think so alike! I’m already setting my table for Thanksgiving it’s going to be all white table cloth and napkins and I’m buying the red cabbage and putting candle in the fake ones I have lol

[@The_Curated_Life]

Susan, the silver trays as chargers is such a classic look. And any plate looks so good on top of them. I also mixed and match chargers. I don't have 12 identical ones for the folding tables so I used two different chargers that coordinated with the look of the table.

[@susanvelez6534]

I purchased a lead testing kit from Amazon because I have to test my thrift finds for lead please think of testing the tea cups for lead I had a ton I had to get rid of so I hammered them in a bag and may make a mosaic on canvas :(

[@The_Curated_Life]

Susan, I never thought of checking the teacups for lead! Thank you for the info. ❤❤❤

[@Bekindalways120]

Would you mind sharing how you plan on paper please.I am a visual learning and like to see how you do things.Thank you.

[@reneesilvers6618]

Are you at the Hobby Lobby in Weaverville NC? Looks very familiar, I shop there all the time.

[@The_Curated_Life]

Renee, no I wasn't. I think most Hobby Lobby's have the same layout and look similar. Weaverville is such a cute place. I would love to visit sometime. ❤❤❤

[@susanvelez6534]

Oh I have 6 square plates from pier one in orange maybe I can use them as chargers???? Need advice

[@The_Curated_Life]

That would be beautiful!!!! ❤❤❤
