Thank you! 😊

[@Weeksj2412]

Fabulous styling, David! Love, Love, Love the ribbon on the wreath! I agree with you about how some people just walk around and around their Christmas tree with the ribbon and it looks like big circles. When I see trees done like that, I think about the “stack-um” toy for babies that has 5-6 colorful plastic rings that look like donuts and they stack up on a wooden cone. The gorgeous ribbon and the ornaments made the wreath look Victorian to me and I am crazy about that style of decor. Would love to see more of your ideas on that theme.

[@DavidChristophers]

That’s a good analogy about the stack-um toys. 🤣 We definitely have some trees coming this season with a similar style. 🎄

[@dawnwilkinson3500]

This reminds me of my childhood. Very nice David!!

[@DavidChristophers]

Thank you, Dawn. 🎄😃

[@Thankfulbeyondmeasur]

That’s exactly how I always did my ribbon on the wreaths I made for displays for the ideas where I worked years ago at a craft store.

[@DavidChristophers]

So glad the up close looks can help. We are both very visual, as well. We try to keep that in mind when making the videos❤️

Way cool. The first garland you put in with the berries was amazing. I'll have to remember that. Loved the plaid ribbon too. I think all the items should come as a kit. Just sayin'. Thank you guys for always sharing your talents. It's much appreciated.

[@DavidChristophers]

As soon as our wreaths come in, we plan to make a kit. ❤️❤️❤️

[@lyndam6640]

I love the OLD MONEY Christmas wreath….nostalgic like when we were young!! I just may use these colors this year as I am cutting back 🥲 just can’t do as I have always done. I may just bring back traditional colors as it is always a great Christmas look and feel. Thanks again for this beautiful display.

You are so welcome!

Sooooooo gorgeous! I'd have stopped at the berry balls, but...WOW!!! That wreath belongs in a Ralph Lauren ad: classy, classic, understated, elegant. Jumpsuit Jen and Decorator Dave, y'all should have a TV show! Lisa, at Ivy Lane Interiors, just posted a KZbin video where she restored a Jacobean-style chest. That wreath needs to hang over that chest, such a perfect match! Thank you for this video. Love and blessings!!

[@sandraalmodovar4382]

[@angelicachavez3167]

I love that color it’s amazing 😊

[@jackandjill9065]

I’m doing a classic “Ralph Lauren” type Christmas. I have a navy blue, kelly green, and red plaid ribbon and I’m adding gold velvet ribbon with it with coordinating trinkets on green foliage. I’m also adding some lighter blue balls that are a lighter hue of the navy, along with silver. I’ll marry the gold and silver with trinkets that are silver, gold, and white. I’m so excited as this will be my first time doing anything but traditional red and green or white and gold!

[@DavidChristophers]

Sounds lovely. Happy creating!

[@vanessasummers6226]

That so pretty and yes I would use it ❤

[@jamesredd7416]

Hello James from Dallas Texas hi listening to y'all talk about old money new money oh Christmas you know I'm an old world Christmas but I would call that old money not that I have old money but new money is Nouveau riche and they are so obvious sometimes it's ridiculous and on the other note about ribbon when it comes to ribbon I love ribbon and I have seen some of the most weird ways people add ribbon would say I'm closer to what David would do and I truly love love love love love love ribbon fabric whatever you're going to use I hate that toilet paper wrap look I don't like when they just stream down straight from the top knot tucking it in or out you just they just leave it hanging no no no no no no no no no Nanette I say in and out angles diagonals come on let's create make it really dense make it beautiful thank you David for sharing your expertise in ribbon❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@gardenia77]

This is so pretty. I love the deeper toned red and greens like this. And I'm saving this fir future reference for the ribbon. I always want my ribbon to look like this, but sometimes have trouble executing it. I would at those Goose shoes are not Old Money. It's actually annoying that it's become trendy, but the old money or quiet luxury aesthetic comes from the esthetic of people that have money and aren't trying to show it off. But they can afford the very best. They choose quality materials and classic elegance over flashy name brands or over the top fads. So, they're going to wear the finest silk, wool, precious metals, etc but they're going to choose timeless, elegant tailoring. Not the flashy tacky huge name branded stuff. The Goose shoes were expensive, but they weren't timeless and elegant. So, for example the old money esthetic wouldn't choose the Louis Vuitton bag with the logo everywhere. They would choose a different bag from that line or a different bag all together that was handmade leather.

[@DavidChristophers]

Thank you for taking time to explain the Goose shoes trend to us. They were definitely not timeless or classy. Still amazed that they sold for those prices and looked dirty. 😬 Thanks for watching! ❤️

Just like I was talking about earlier about ribbon packaging the same thing with pics it's hard to find pics that have lengths to them that spray out that have wired branches and wireless and wired in the pedals so I would even love a box full of something like that if you could figure out a way that it would be good pricing of course I'm retired I used to buy wholesale now I don't but I still play and do things so I buy retail we had one time Garden Ridge that was unbelievably fantastic now we have at home which I don't like at all❤
