Absolutely Beautiful!!! LOVE your channel! Thank you for sharing your talent and your beautiful home and gardens!

[@marymckinney385]

So pretty! Love the lantern. The snow in the background made it more festive. You're a breath of fresh air compared to some other videos I've been watching on decorating window boxes.⛄❄ Tfs.

[@wendybee8854]

I want you to know how much I love your videos. You offer such beautiful inspiration. These planters are fantastic. I hope I get my rear going early next year to try some of your projects! Thanks for sharing!

[@lindaballance6323]

The window boxes are just stunningly beautiful! Also loved the music!

[@lth7023]

I love everything you do, so much! I'm so Inspired by your Videos! Needless to say I'm a HUGE Fan!😍

[@jgwood10]

Beautiful window boxes! They really put you in the Christmas spirit. The dried hydrangea took it over the top. The best part is that you can enjoy them from inside, also. 🎅🏻🎄⛄️

[@judywhittlesey4010]

First, LOVE the hat! Always love your designs, and thanks always, for sharing info and teaching. I've been subscribed to Southern Living magazine longer than my memory. Still enjoy holding a book or mag. in my hands! I'm loving and using cardinals this year. Hope we see a holiday "inside" peek, again this year. ❤our👩‍🌾

[@jenavievejones3237]

[@cathybranly1839]

Very pretty. Thanks for sharing. Gives me ideas for 2 very small boxes on my shed. Cute hat!

[@ShanDeGlamOrganix]

What a great 👀 you have for detail....You're another great YT gardener👍Now I need to hit lowe's this weekend for a few fresh bundles of greenery, and I passed Joann's yesterday, but passed it by as I was heading to Michael's! I found some white birch limbs to add into some container arrangements!!!! Of course finding decorative's off wooded land as Laura and her mom did, would even be better! Enjoy your beautiful window boxes....

[@Imsorry1375]

[@karentemple5619]

Absolutely beautiful!! Your step by step helps people like me to create stunning arrangements when I recognize and see beauty but can't do it on my own...thank you. I see a trip to Lowe's today😀 You are so personable and cute..what a super video❤

[@HowsItGrowing]

You are so wonderful, really Kerrie! I just think you are the bees knees! Thank you for always being such a driving and motivating positive force to me in the garden. It always helps me be less "nervous" when I feel like I'm just talking to friends on here.

[@marieporter6649]

Very pretty, love it

[@gardengirl6854]

Very pretty.❤

[@sophieshaven4035]

Love it.........I don't have window boxes but will take from this to do 2 large planters for the holidays, one nice thing about this arrangement is it will still be nice well after Christmas right thru to Valentine's Day. Really enjoy your videos, a lot of helpful information and great ideas. Enjoyed viewing your home in Country Sampler......you have a very beautiful and cozy looking home.

[@maryjohnson3401]

Even though it is July, I am planning for the. Christmas season. This was so much fun to watch and see you create such a beautiful window arrangement. Where did you find your lanterns? Keep up these kind of projects. You are great!!!

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

I found one pinecone from a massive Redwood and a few from Sequoia on the ground in Kings Canyon California National park last Oct when I went to see the General Sherman Tree and the President Tree...and so many other amazing earthly delights. I suggest going there.

[@MsValerieDev]

Cute hat. You have such a beautiful yard and home. Love the window planters.

[@cathy8819]

Nicely done. Love it! I still have fall decor out until after Thanksgiving, them it’s full on Christmas decor. Love what you did and I am excited to change it up now. Thanks for posting.

[@abiering]

Gorgeous job! You are so creative.❤️

[@Flower_hoarder]

🌲🌺🌿🐿VERY NICE ‼️🌲🌺🐿🌿

[@hanaleidesigns8539]

I love it too! So pretty! Where did you pick up the huge pine cones? I wish could grow hydrangeas here, maybe I just need to find the right type. Our area is super hot 🥵 and dry in the summer, we hardly get any rain here in the Central Valley of California. It’s always dry and dusty. This area is mostly cotton and grapes, and of course nuts, like almonds and pistachios. All around us is farming areas. The biggest thing is I have to plant everything in pots, we live in military housing (rental) so no inground planting. What hydrangea would you recommend. I’ve tried the “houseplant” variety 👎🏼 it was a beautiful purple one. I babied that thing, and it still croaked. Not sure what variety it was, I figured since they sold it at Lowe’s, it must be okay for our area. Thanks for showing us a beautiful window box. Can’t wait till it gets alittle snow covered. Btw, just ordered some wilt stop so I can make a potted Christmas display. Happy Planting 💜🌺🌸🎄

[@rubyoro0]

Porterville here.

[@lizeee7840]

Love it, so beautiful!

[@genevievebarnett5767]

Omgee! I love this. I need to step up my Christmas game!

[@jeaninewalsh5120]

Hi Love this!

[@HowsItGrowing]

Thank you so much Jeanine!

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

I have 7 to make. I better get going.

[@HowsItGrowing]

Oh my goodness!! It will be so beautiful!!

[@donnamack576]

Just gorgeous!! What music was playing on this video!! I LOVED it!!

[@HowsItGrowing]

Oh my thank you!! I know I loved it too!! So FESTIVE! ❤️ it was from a repository of musical clips for thinks like KZbin videos. It was called “Dance at the Abbey” even the name I love. 😂

[@Graycat1735]

Beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration and jnstruction! Where can I get the lanterns?

[@lovepeace4635]

I saw it in Walmart .

[@sag6310]

Beautiful,where did you get the sugar pines🎅

[@victoriabourgeois3273]

Do you get lots of wind? No way I could do one of these beauties cuz my neighbor would end up with bits and pieces in their yards. Have to just enjoy yours. Happy Thanksgiving. Tfs cheers

[@HowsItGrowing]

Hi there! Yes a fair bit. Using the shrubs that are actually in the soil plus staples help. The only parts I pick up occasionally are the tiny pine cones. I could probably wrap them with floral wire and secure them to the greens. Happy Thanksgiving!!!

[@dayanaralora4910]

😍😍😍😍

[@RitaKeegan]

love it! How do the pine cones hold up with the wind? Do they blow out?

[@HowsItGrowing]

Thank you! I’ve had to tuck in the small ones again sometimes other years, but not too bad. The big ones don’t move. 😂

[@lindamurphy1439]

Oh it's absolutely beautiful! Is the lantern on a timer? Can you share where you got those huge pine cones? I'd love some for my crocks.

[@HowsItGrowing]

Hi there! Thanks so much! Yes they are on a timer. I got the pine cones at the supermarket! Local Acme out here.

[@mercedesg3607]

Silly question - Do you water these boxes? These are absolutley gorgeous. I would pay big bucks for you to decorate mine if you were local 😌

[@HowsItGrowing]

How nice!! Thank you so very much! Not a silly question at all and in fact, I should have mentioned. Yes I would water these, because of the evergreens planted directly into them. Maybe once a week. Don’t want the roots to get dried out.

[@judywhittlesey4010]

I always forget to ask, so asking now: How's it going with Master Gardener class?👩‍🌾

[@HowsItGrowing]

Thanks for asking! I’m all finished. But I’ll still need hours to get certified. With the crazy world, that’s on hold for now. But I just loved it. Very informative and fun. I got a lot out of it.

[@shatzy698]

Just beautiful but don't you worry about the lanterns out in the weather?

[@HowsItGrowing]

Thank you! No, not at all. I’ve been using them on the porch steps for about 10 yrs. a little shine up sometimes. And the candles inside are specific for outdoor use. If not, then I’d definitely worry. 😊

[@puplover6265]

I'm not super familiar with those hayracks/liners, but am curious if the water affects the siding of the house? I'd hate to have moisture mess with the siding on my house. Any tips? Yours look beautiful.

[@HowsItGrowing]

Excellent question! So these are attached by little iron loop hooks and can easily be lifted off if you don’t want them up years round. I’ve had them up about 3 years now and they are always full of soil year round never taken down. I peeked under one last week just to see and everything looked to be in perfect shape. I think the hooks and the metal bump it out enough and since they are fiber the moisture runs down and out and doesn’t collect in between the surfaces. I have other non hay rack and those I attached with some strips of 2x4 first so they weren’t right on the house. Boy, that’s a long answer. Ha! Hope it helps. I’d say go for it!
