Getting ready for Thanksgiving at home with elegant natural decor, projects done around the home

[@Julie_Krantz]

Well I think we ARE kindred spirits! If no other reason than I too LOVE old grainy episodes of Martha Stewart Living, filmed in her Turkey Hill kitchen and gardens. When I was 15, we got our first satellite dish (as opposed to the aerial antenna before) and watching her on satellite tv began my love of all things domestic at that young age. 55 and never lost it. Hence me watching YOUR channel now! 😊 We too had the SAME issue with mouse deposits of dog food only it was my dryer. The repairman said he didn’t know why we hadn’t had a fire when he saw the damage. 🙏

[@Sylvia1976]

Linda I love where you live! I can't believe how organized everything looks and you've only been there a minute!

[@queenscotia769]

Truly blessed to have such a wealth of nature's bounty on the doorstep .a seasonal must for any one who enjoys traditional country living . 🙂🇬🇧🇱🇷

[@rosemeyer5764]

No more “what would Martha do?”. Now it’s “what would Linda do?”. You are exceptionally talented at so much!

[@newenglandfineliving]

Awwww so sweet!

[@kathywinstead7460]

Amazing story of the storm door! Shows that you were destined to live in that house! That gives me "goose bumps"!

[@eleanorrkuntzi6422]

So enjoyable - you are the epitome of a modern pioneer woman. You take on projects with gusto seeing them through no matter how long it takes. The storm door is awesome; a labor of love. The use of dried naturals in the urns & mantel is pure New England. Thank you for another inspiring video.

[@poodlegirl55]

I had a good laugh wondering what the appliance men were thinking when this cute little lady started dismantling her cabinets.

[@patriciacaughey5122]

Your new oven looks beautiful. The door you fixed looks great. Love the little pumpkins on top of door and your urns with leaves in them. Thank you.

[@patriciacinea3097]

No such things as coincidences....that door find with match to your magazine cover...WOW. Thx for decor and gutter stuffer tips!

[@maryohare4141]

My hubby and I bought 35 acres in very rural area (entire village population was 182, counting us lol!) We paid on land for 15 years...then decided to build a home there. Our first day moved in, I was so excited because all new appliances arrived, so I could FINALLY make our first night's dinner in new home. HAD entire meal all prepared when, wind started kicking up outside, sky got dark, lights flickered...a town siren began to wail! Yep, tornado alert....we hussled down to basement...with a bag of chips and a flashlight. A huge tree fell right next to our new home, its top point of branches knocking off a shutter. The power was off...FOR A WEEK. SO...meat cooked over portable barbecue...foil packets of potatoes and veggies...water in jugs and bottles. Yep...your oven trouble was annoying and expensive....but luckily, you got to use your brand new oven! I just polished my appliances, looked longingly at them...and had to wait a week until countywide electric co-op...got electric going again! lol!

[@cathyhermanson10]

Linda: You can do anything! I am impressed with your woodworking skills. You are one talented lady and I so enjoy your videos. I just cannot wait to see what your home will look like in by the time you are done. 20 people for Thanksgiving? That is nothing for you. I have noticed that our grocery store does not have some of the items I usually purchase for Thanksgiving, so I went to Amazon to buy some things I could not find.

[@leticiahernandez4857]

Good morning Linda love how you put everything together getting ready for Thanksgiving . Reminds me of my child years. Have a great weekend and God bless you and your family🙏🏻🍂🍁🌲🦃

[@sherrycopeland3553]

You could name your bovine buddies: Ebony, Ivory, and Jet. Your home and it's location is very beautiful.

[@jeanneseanard3987]

You are such an inspiration! I love your fearless attitude when you tackle your projects. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

[@suziechampagne357]

That photo of the storm door on the cover of your binder is exactly how I manifest things. It's a sort of vision board which works well for me and on it, I place many pictures of things I want. Once manifested, I remove the picture, place in a "Thank you" enveloppe stapled on the back of my vision board . Voilà !

[@newenglandfineliving]

Wait! I love the idea of the thank you envelope! I have notes everyone on old journals of each time things have come to fruition, but to save them together like that is such a great idea Suzie! Kudos!

[@suziechampagne357]

@@newenglandfineliving Oh and I must add that for my own personal pleasure, I write the date manifestation happened on the flip side of my image. Glad you enjoyed the idea :)

[@kathyropa6174]

Loved the garland and planters with the autumn leaves. So beautiful. Thank you Linda for sharing.

[@christinechapman3004]

Another great post. Love to see Willow in every video. She is beautiful! You are so lucky you have cows for neighbors. Enjoy your new home.

[@loricorulli7922]

"I'd like to introduce you to my cow neighbors...I don't know their names though." Loved it! I spontaneously burst out laughing!

[@lindarichie2585]

I absolutely love how the storm door came out ! It really adds character and warmth to the room ! Good thing you’re so handy ! Manifesting your dreams are a beautiful thing ! The stove is perfect! That was meant to be as well ! I really think you should name the cows ! Bessie comes to mind for one of them lol

[@TwoHorses7Ducks]

Linda, I love spending my mornings with you. Thank you for making videos for us. ♥️♥️♥️

[@AreYouKittenMeRtNow]

That door is SO LUCKY you found it!! We have two of these on our 1879 Victorian, one of them I rescued off the side of the road to replace a missing one (because people are insane and throw things like that out!!) Luckily previous owners protected the beautiful stain on ours with marine varnish. Must be a northeastern thing (we’re in western NY state) my hubby who grew up in the SW had never seen one. They really help with heat retention and are beautiful to hang a wreath on. Gorgeous video as always 🌾🌲🍂. Edit: lol that orange paint!!! 😂

[@BeautifulLivingHome]

The view from your home is breathtaking! How amazing to have that right outside your window!🌺

Linda, slowly your home reflects your personality already. Love it, I enjoy your projects and decorations so much especially this time of the year . I moved in late August to Florida due to my husband new job. I miss the north so much.🎄

[@giddingsrocks]

I love your new place so much. You're a very lucky girl. I can gladly push aside my envy to live it vicariously and watch you decorate your beautiful antique New England home. 😍 Your videos are so relaxing and such eye candy. A dreamy escape and true inspiration. Please keep them coming. Also I love the music in this video. Just beautiful and so fitting. Thank you for sharing. ❤

[@ShelleB]

I can’t believe how well you were able to clean up that front storm door. Looks great!

[@newenglandfineliving]

From afar it does! LOL Thank you!

[@sunflowerintn4716]

I have cow 🐄 neighbors too. I'm enjoying your videos very much. I like that door too. I grew up with doors like that. Wouldn't mind to have one on my home now.

[@602redroses]

I love the idea of putting your tree in a spot that you can see when you come through the door.

Your home is lovely and the scenery around your home is so beautiful and peaceful. Can't wait to see your Thanksgiving tree.🍁

[@renatamitchell4437]

That's a nice stove you bought.

[@LoriSkees]

You’ve inspired me to go out into the yard today and pick some flower pods. I love using natural materials too. One of my favorite centerpieces was a pineapple spray painted gold, with greens and gold painted unshelled nuts scattered around. I may have to do that again this year. Thanks for the inspiration once again!

[@newenglandfineliving]

That sounds wonderful!

[@jeaninewalsh5120]

Enjoy your videos so much, even though I will most likely, at my age, never get to do any of these things. Looking forward to future ones! Love and hugs from Gloria in Mississippi 👼🏻💕💖

[@seasonliving6916]

I just love that view, my husband and I are still looking for property. We have come close a few times but things keep falling through. I can't wait to have a view like that. Also the arrangement with the pheasant feathers is beautiful. I love your new stove. Last but not least, check those fences every so often you don't want those beautiful beef eating your flowers.

[@peggy-ann1961]

We have those gutter guards, they’re great! Your new stove is beautiful as was the light coming through your storm door. We are in a full blown Manitoba blizzard today ( November 11) 🥶so it was still nice to see lovely fall sunshine. Thank you Linda

[@newenglandfineliving]

Oh wow. We are expecting our first snow on the 11th.

Linda, I am glad you're such a "hands on person" as I am too. Even at age 70, I love projects and have no desire to give them over to anyone else, unless it's something I'm not truly able to do. There's something so very satisfying about it. However, we just spent three days removing very difficult wallpaper from a bathroom... next time I WILL call a professional! I know when I'm licked! Whew!

[@newenglandfineliving]

I hear you! My husband keeps asking me to hire a painter for our rooms, but I have a hard time doing that. I might have to soon though with my shoulder getting worse by the day and surgery booked for January.

I am going to get these for sure. I have dried oranges in the oven but did not like the darker look. Thank you so much for sharing the food drier that you use.

[@emilyr4965]

Is that a downdraft ventilation system? Our kitchen, in a 1920s mountain home, cannot accommodate ducting other than a downdraft system which isn't ideal according to what I've been reading. But you can only work within what is possible. I have discovered lately a ductless/ventless system that uses new technology, so will be looking into that before I make a decision on a new range. Love your videos! Always soothing and fun especially for someone who lives on the west coast and has always wanted to visit New England in the fall. 🙏🍁💖
