LAST MINUTE GIFTS + MY CHRISTMAS MANICURE // Vlogmas Day 23 // AD

[@dawnbrick4566]

Eccles cakes are made with puff pastry instead of shortcrust pastry and were originally served with Lancashire cheese. They can also be oval in shape and are then called Banbury cakes. Banbury cakes have been made in Banbury since the 16th century . You learn something everyday, whether you want to or not. Have a great Christmas!!

[@aynaz99]

I watch both Lydias and your vlogs, and I am starting to feel that I don't learn much from her videos whereas I find your contents much more useful with no attitude all over the place or just sticking the camera on the dogs half the vlog because one has nothing to say! 🥰

[@cherylmiller8455]

I would just like to say a big thank you to yourself and Charlie for the wonderful vlogs and videos. Wishing you both and gorgeous doggies a wonderful Christmas with your families. One of the best ! 🌲🎄🍾🥂🎉

[@bernadette1928]

I just wanted to tell you, Thank You, for giving all of us such a festive and bright Holiday Season. You and everyone who help with your vlog have kept many spirits bright. So thank you to you, your family, your sponsors, and everyone behind the scenes. You are appreciated.🌬🕊

[@constancemurphy6230]

You are so genuine and lovely. Your mom and dad did a beautfful job in raising such a caring daughter which I am sure you will pass on. Happiest wishes for a glorious 2022.

[@maryjones7593]

Thank you for all your vlogs during the year but especially vlogmass. I absolutely love this time of year.

[@lisamcallister7501]

Dear Josie, you have really helped me get through a difficult year with your idyllic home and cheery attitude. Merry Christmas to you, Mr Irons and the pups 🐶 ❤

[@sheliaerwin3899]

Thanks to the most beautiful couple in the Cotswold Josie and Charlie!! For the amazing journey through your holidays!! May 2022 bring you all the love and peace you deserve

[@dawnanngallagher6389]

Hi Josie, I have had a Cricket for years and have never been able to get the sizing correct on the machine and you have managed to figure things out so quickly. You are amazing on the computer. Cool water bottle with the names added onto them. Congratulations on your Cricket. I hope you got the tools, especially the spatula l.

[@mrsp-notsosecretdiary]

Eccles cakes are named for the town of Eccles in Lancashire, England, now classified as a town in the City of Salford, Greater Manchester. Though their origin long predates him, it was James Birch who became the first person to sell Eccles cakes commercially in 1793 in the Eccles town centre. The best way to think about the Eccles cake is to consider it as a sort of flattened, drier version of a mince pie, its puff pastry and raisins occupying the space between the mince pie and the Garibaldi biscuit in the baker's pantheon. ... Like mince pies, Eccles cakes were banned by Cromwell's puritans

[@eshaibraheem4218]

Thank you. Bravo!

[@gillschmid5267]

Thank you for the history lesson. X

[@debfletcher2607]

Have never eaten an Eccles cake as in my neck of the woods (Yorkshire) they are commonly called dead fly buns! Just can’t shake that delightful image.

[@mrsp-notsosecretdiary]

@@debfletcher2607 We call them flycakes lol (I'm from Manchester)

[@bitak2095]

I hope you are feeling better! By the end of your video your cold is very noticeable. Thank you for all you do Josie! Happy, Merry, joyful Christmas! ☃️🎄🎄🎄

[@sonnylovesfreddy340]

While I'm sad that tomorrow will be the last Vlogmas, I'm glad that you'll get to enjoy your holidays and not have to work so much! Hope you're not getting ill Josie and are feeling better today!

[@dianabryan7421]

Aww my husband and I do not do big gifts either! We do love boxes which are small boxes we have decorated filled with thoughtful things for one another 💕

[@EmilyBoltz]

Your living room is a dream. The warm wood panels are amazing. The sofa is a perfect choice. Wow well done!

[@leanna3550]

Hey Josie! This is my very first public comment on the internet ever. I am a very strange millennial and I pretty much do not exist online as much as one can in 2021 soon to be 2022. I decided to break my silence today on Christmas Eve and wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas! I have wanted to thank you for some time now. Your vlogs got me through a very tough 2020. I had a verbally & emotionally abusive boss, I was working lots of overtime and the U.S had just gone into Lockdown. Everyone was safe in their homes while I was forced to go into work and risk being exposed. I was miserable! I started watching all of your vlogs during that time and they filled me with so much joy that I got up the courage to quit my job in the middle of a pandemic. Long story short, a year and a half later I am working from home, having fun, and at peace. Thank you for being a bright shining star when everything was so dark! Wishing blessings for you, Charlie, your mom, and your sweet boys in the New Year! Love from the 303 (Colorado).

[@aly5664]

Hope you two stay healthy for the holidays. My husband and I just got over COVID and we had to drastically cut back on guests for Christmas.

[@fionaseager3940]

Tank tops are so retro. You can wear them with anything top or bottom whatever takes your fancy. A belt is good if that suits you ❣️🥰 Eccles cakes are make with puff pastry surly? And how could you chose a favourite Harry Potter? They are all fantastic! thanks for the excellent content. Xxx

[@lindasmith1921]

Thank you for letting me tag along with you, I have enjoyed this journey with you, looking forward to 2022!👏🏾I couldn't help but to laugh while Charlie, was explaining how much trouble the delivery guys when through getting the sofa in the house and you standing there in awes🤣

[@emmabreen18]

Josie, I watch with subtitles on (for night feeds) and last time you mentioned the Leoube wine, it captioned it as ‘a bottle of lube!’ Really made me chuckle! Anyway, Merry Christmas to you, Charlie and saucissons xxx

[@JosieIrons]

Hahahahaha

[@bizzimusic]

Josie you've done an amazing job getting through Vlogmas. Thank you so much for all your great content! I hope you get over the sniffles very quickly and it's nothing serious. We have so many family members in the UK for whom Christmas is now cancelled due to the dreaded virus! Wishing you, Charlie and all your family a happy and healthy Christmas! Xx

[@jennymurray4698]

Thank you so so much. I literally could watch every day. You are both just amazing. Wishing you and both of your families a wonderful Christmas and a very happy New Year xx

[@leeannmelaugh3704]

Thank you for your vlogs, you would not believe how much I needed them this last few months, the escapism has been amazing. Your a lady. Xx

[@lynnandrews5313]

Hi Josie, only just caught up with this vlog. An Eccles cake is flaky pastry filled with currants as opposed to mixed fruit in aince pie. Great video as usual.

[@gracens1380]

Yay for fluffy puppies, Harry Potter and cozy socks! Happy holidays & Wishing you all joy in the New Year!💫🌟

[@gaelliott61]

Merry Christmas to you two. I’m watching a Mapperton House video of mulled wine but there’s also a segment about leather topped desks that you may want watch that’s really interesting about how to care for them-I thought of both of your desks when I was watching it.

[@jjohnson6833]

Yay, another vlogmas vlog! ❤️ I look forward to your videos every morning! Merry Christmas to you and Charlie! 🎄🎄🎄

[@paulajayne444]

The Cricut machine is also great for those with unusual names, my Daughter's are Terrie and Chêlana (Shay-Lana) and my Grand-Daughters are Sophia-Rae, Serafina-Maii and Arliah (R Leah) So finding things with their names on is pretty difficult. Great vlog again, I don't mind car recordings, especially as it help makes the vlog longer 😀 Wishing you, Charlie, LL, Dexter and Dickens a wonderful Christmas, love from Somerset xxx 🎄 🎅🦌🎁💐🥂🍾🍷🥃

[@KoriEmerson]

Yup. My children have Scandinavian names and struggle to find things with their names on them. So my friend makes things for them with their names.

[@lesliesheridanhopkintonma9606]

Josie ...I loved the hat story...lots of strangeness connected to a pointy bobble hat (very humorous )

[@jacquelinearcher1158]

Eccles cake is not a mince pie…Mincemeat was once meat..but mincemeat contains dried fruit…suet….spices…chopped apple…nuts …sugar…heated up and stored..Eccles cake are made with currents cooked in the flaky pastry… Note to Charlie..check out Delia Smiths mincemeat recipe …nothing beats it…I’ve made it for thirty plus years and always get requests for mince pies .

[@KateyGiggly]

I bought the pink pajamas for all the ladies in my family this Christmas 💗

[@eileenchang2173]

Dear Josie, you are the most dedicated Vlogger ! Thank you for yet another year of hard work and getting us through yet another difficult year in this world. The best of holiday to you, Charlie and your boys and your entire families! ❄️❤️🇨🇦🌲

[@orchidlife9482]

[@FB-xm9rn]

Cricket is very popular here in Canada I’ve had one for many years now and I love it🤗 Merry Christmas Josie and Charlie and your fur babies 🤗🎄

[@cristinamagurean]

You are all lovely, thank you for making this Christmas more beautiful, in spite of the pandemic, you have both worked so hard and we all appreciate it!!!! Get well soon, Josie...Merry Christmas!!!!!!

[@lesleyrowdon9829]

Oh dear hope you don’t feel to bad over Christmas. Get well soon and enjoy your self. Happy Christmas x

[@reneeinla2.0]

The new sofa is called a Knole sofa. It is named for the original sofa that was made for Knole house in Kent. (I recommend a visit to historic Knole house). It was built in the seventeenth century. There is a whole history behind the creation of this style. It is beautiful. Charlie chose well.

[@naymette]

I'm sure you know this but the colors of the Charlotte Tilbury are in english and french so : cold / froid are the same thing (froid is pronounced frwa not froyd hhh), neutral / neutre also the same thing different languages ... thank you for your videos Josie, they are such a lovely reflection of your wonderful personality.

[@dh40]

Josie, I love your elegant intro for the season!! I watch the whole thing beginning to end. Very good job!!!!!! Thx & Merry Christmas to you & Charlie and your adorable sausage puppies! 🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅

[@janicebone6191]

[@anastasiaconstantine6719]

charlie at the end looooool so amusing ahaha. Beautiful Sofa!!!!! Thank you Josie!!!!

[@melissalane7920]

Eccles cakes only have currants in. Mince meat has sultanas, raisins, currants, apple, candied peel etc. Xxx

[@christinepickard7804]

Love the colour of your nails for Christmas....The Eccles cake is dry & flattened version of a mince pie, but delicious..👍✨☕

[@lynnereed5948]

You need to take a lateral flow test Josie. You sound just like I did a week ago and I was positive. Don't take any chances when you have elderly relatives visiting over the Christmas holidays. Take care ❤️

[@brigittebazel2754]

I’ve had a circuit for many years for scrapbooking. I love it and need to get back to crafting as well. Have fun with it !

[@my2girlygirlz]

What a festive and cozy vlog! I so enjoyed watching! Thank you for sharing!❤

[@susieqmartin2746]

Oh my I have had the Cricut Maker for 3 years now. I also have the Cricut Joy, it I an amazing tool to make lovely personalized cards just so professional looking cards. You must try the Joy too!

[@JacquelineFrancesca]

As a new follower, since the beginning of December, cause I was disappointed in the people I already followed didn’t do vlogmas. I must say, you’ve quickly become my new fave vlogger.

[@MsGokceee]

Going to miss your vlogmasses Josie! You always make the best vlogs especially during the festive season! Lots of love xxx

[@helenstella2666]

Eccles cakes are round & flat, made from flaky pastry & filled with currants (not mincemeat) & topped with sugar. They’re named after Eccles, in Lancashire. Oh, hope you’re not poorly for Christmas Josie 🤞🤧🎄

[@danaslockis1007]

Can’t believe vlogmas are about to end! I’m going to miss them so much but you deserve a rest from editing and filming daily, honestly I don’t know how you find time for it all, you inspire us. we need to know which mince pies won after a month of testing them haha so once I get to travel to the UK I can try them

[@christinekramer1338]

I enjoyed all your vlogs so much and I love Charlies little tables somuch!! I have quite a collection of antique tables also. Some gatelegs that I use during the holidays and some with marble tops and a few drawers even! Most are from France. Looking forward to the new year coming up and all your activities. 💖💕 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! 💖💕

[@newmercies1]

The two doggies passing out sleepy on the sofa while Charlie is talking, is everything. They are so funny! Great video. ;)

[@blakeyrebeccaross]

Josie, I love the Burgundy tie dye Karen Millen dress and will buy one for myself. Just for reference, did you buy the petite size that I see it comes in? Since it's a bit long on you, just making me wonder which one I should get. Thanks!

[@jimjam1979247]

Merry Christmas 🎄 all xx 😘 thank you for all your content and hard work x enjoy your Christmas break x

[@carolineyates9039]

Hi Josie. Eccles is in Greater Manchester and I live half an hour away, approx. It can be known as fly cake, referring to the currants. I have never allowed that to put me off though. Some makes are nicer than others. A bit like your mince pies. I have loved all of your vlogs and would like to thank you and wish you all a very Happy Christmas. Byee for now x

[@natasaperun3242]

As a person who are blessed by celebrate Christmas twice - according to the Julian, and Gregorian calendar as well - I am grateful for your Vlogmas, that brings me to the first Christmas every year, by your beautiful footages, great editing, interesting contents, priceless advices and above all - your endless charm and kindness. Although I'm sorry Vlogmas is coming to the end, I'll tell you: thank you Josie! 🎄🙏🏻❤🎉 Greetings from Serbia ❤🇷🇸

[@beverlyduffy700]

I have enjoyed all your vlogs & videos Charlie's too!! They are wonderful, so well done, I really love the intro to your vlog, I also know that this is a lot of work so I want to thank you both for all the content. Really made my Christmas. Thank you both so much!!!

[@annettesceon7431]

Your blogs are never boring. Merry Christmas to you and Charlie and boys.

[@gillschmid5267]

You two are the best or should l say four? Love watching and learning! Your parents and Charlie's have done a wonderful job bringing two fine human beings up! Thank you so much for this year's vlogs. Always inspiring and informative for me. What l love from both of you is your modesty and being so genuine. Have a very Happy Christmas and look forward to the New Year. 🎅🎅🎄😊🎉🤗

[@carolinaochoa7900]

Merry Christmas Josie! Your house is beautiful and you have bought some very lovely pieces of furniture, but something is a bit off with the layout in the great room. It’s too big to have the sofa stuck to the wall and just doesn’t look well put together or organized. Maybe look at some pictures for inspiration?

[@laviniajohnson9210]

Another good buy in the Knole sofa to compliment the style of your home.

[@heatherkerenza]

Going to have an early bath and relax with a glass of wine whilst watching this… perfect start to the evening!

[@shegoesnorth9143]

thank you for the wonderful content, Josie! Really love your vlogs and glimpse of countryside life. Here's to reaching your deserved 1M in 2022!

Hello Josie, would you mind telling me where that lovely necklace you wore in the beginning is from?🙈🥰 Been looking for a necklace like this for a while now…

[@SouthernYankee]

Hope you feel better soon! And merry Christmas to you and Charlie! Your nails are gorgeous perfect for Christmas and New Years. I haven’t had my nails done since Covid I think I may treat myself this next week I really miss them. I’m a full on glitter girl with nails. Try and relax a few days.

[@jojo-dtspcason5204]

Happy Holidays to you and Charlie. Have a wonderful time and stay safe. 🎄🥂🍾

[@Margaretcs0103]

I bought my daughter a Cricut machine for Christmas! I hesitated because with 3 children, 7,4 & 8 months, plus a full time job…..she has little time for crafting…..however, I knew she would absolutely love it. I hope it doesn’t stress her out more….lol.

[@llaurallea8281]

Thank you soo much Josie and Charlie! I soo look forward to seeing vlogmas every day 🎄🎁🎊🍾. I’m soo jealous of your mince pies every day lol. I hope your sniffles go away for Christmas 🙏🌺🎄. Btw, MV is having another sale if you want gifts for yourself 😋🤩

[@denisemchaney4080]

With family visiting, my KZbin watching has been spotty these last few days, but as I had a bit of alone time, I am glad to indulge in some Josie content. And, oh! The focus on the "near" items, starting with the cinnamon roll and continuing with the Charlotte Tilbury products was startlingly sharp and immediately so! If you've done something different, please continue!

[@bernitajenkins3180]

That V-neck vest would look great over a white shirt, with your brown leggings or tennis style skirt, Josie. Also great with pleated pants or knit skirt...

[@merry6117]

The "mince" in mincemeat comes from the Middle English mincen, and the Old French mincier both traceable to the Vulgar Latin minutiare, meaning chop finely. The word mincemeat is an adaptation of an earlier term minced meat, meaning finely chopped meat. Meat was also a term for food in general, not only animal flesh.

[@eshaibraheem4218]

Thanks. Bravo.

[@Patricia_Quigley]

Thank you so much for all your hard work. Have enjoyed your videos so much. Merry Christmas to you and Charlie. Health and Happiness for the new year.

[@sallyannc3176]

The new (antique) sofa is 'interesting' but what have you done with the other sofa that was in that room? I'm not sure it fits well with the other furniture tbh.

[@annmariegiallonardo4852]

Josie, my Christmas movie (strong) suggestions for you and Charlie are "Love the Coopers" (great holiday story and music) and, as Freddy suggested when you were skating, "The Family Stone" is a must see every year with Sarah Jessica Parker and Diane Keaton and more! Thank you for the wonderful Vlogmas series 2021 and Merry Christmas!

[@teresahalliday3680]

We don't have little mince pies here in the US (that I know of) so I order them from a British import store. I love them but my english husband doesn't. His cousin in from Lancashire so I'll have to see if I can get her to send some eccles cakes. My mother used to make large "mincemeat" pies and I remember her grinding up the raisins and other fruit with suet. We had that at Thanksgiving. Your drawing romm is looking so festive, yet cozy!

Love the new sofa. It is so perfect for the room. It looks like a warm hug. I can’t believe how gorgeous and cozy that room is. Perfect for your snuggle evenings in, as well as entertaining. The water bottles are so, so pretty with the gold tops and personalization. I would put thin slices of cucumber in the infuser, for a refreshing water. Thank you for all your wonderful content. Almost like watching the English part of the movie “Holiday” which is my favorite Christmas movie. 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
