Where is the Christmas tree link?

[@lornag2227]

Where did you get your dining room chandelier? Thanks

[@hiedicastillo5751]

Do you have a discount code for the Christmas tree?

[@Duty2rebel1976]

I bought faux walnuts from Amazon and “gilded” them with metallic gold paint and added them to velvet ribbon for hangers. I also bought battery operated taper candles with clips and added them to my tree. Along with dried oranges, star anise and cranberry garland, sprigs of dried babies breathe placed randomly throughout the tree. Pinecones painted with gold edges, berry wrapped cinnamon and a gold bead garland. Now I will add the gingerbread that you suggested! This has been the most fun and most beautiful tree I’ve ever had. And it’s been a family effort as most of these were diy. I love traditional so deeply. I have little red cardinals on clips from previous years I’m considering adding, but have not made up my mind yet.

[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

We live on an extremely extremely tight budget and I'm definitely going to use these ideas this year. Thank you so much for sharing, Kathryn. You are a blessing to everyone who watches.

[@brendatomlinson]

I always feel blessed after watching one of her videos 💜

Dollar store cinnamon and applesauce makes yummy smelling dough for ornaments as well. Mine were cinnamon scented for years. The lights on the tree help warm them a tiny bit and throw the fragrance.

[@rosastratton2271]

I've been doing this style for 30 years. So timeless and elegant ! I go to the forest and get green branches and in the fields I gather the red berries. I never buy any plastic, my decor is all fresh every year! Thanks for sharing!

[@Anagrams458]

So nice, when you have that option.

[@nicolewhite3090]

Your home must smell heavenly!

[@rosastratton2271]

@ aww 🥰 thank you! I wish you could come over to see it! 💝

[@barbaradigennaro1450]

Muppet Christmas Carol = best Christmas movie!

[@itsafranckthing]

Yesssss!

[@papaswoodshop4873]

absolutely

[@janearmour2051]

The Muppets Christmas Carol is one of the first Christmas movies I watch every year! Good call, Charlie!

[@julietannOsfan1972]

I watched it for the first time last year (I’m not really into films) & loved it.

[@Timpsonsews]

It’s been our top movie since it came out. We try to wait until Christmas Eve.😁

[@jeanetteElizabeth61]

I love watching the ballet The Nutcracker. and I watch the Tim Allen Christmas movies. Oh but the best one of all is Christmas Vacation. I laugh and laugh and laugh.

[@bunniesandroses499]

I laugh when they sing, we having a heat wave

[@Timpsonsews]

@ light the lamp not the rat!

[@rosemarythyme6351]

As an abstract artist, I'm usually over-the-top jewel tones for Christmas, but this year I found myself drawn to your nature approach with draping cedar picks, cinnamon stick candles, and pine impression stars this year. I liked the gold paint on the stars, but when making them, I would apply the gold paint and then gently wipe it off the top surface leaving the gold as an accent in the crevice impression for an understated look, AND maybe top with a little white glitter "snow" to make the star twinkle on the lit tree. Also, I would include lavender sprigs and wreaths for the Victorian look. I hope you have a simply lovely Holiday season. Enjoyed the video!

[@christylynnwilson6746]

Your mantle is GORGEOUS!

[@aliciachambers1434]

"Light the lamp, not the rat!"...favorite quote!

[@dorothyluciano9743]

The muppet’s Christmas Carol is my dad’s favorite. I grew up watching it every year and even as an adult, married with kids, I still watch it with my dad every year. My dad had a heart transplant two weeks ago and I had the idea to decorate his room for Christmas for his return home next week. I watched your video for inspiration and the muppet reference hit home 😅

[@thecontradictorycounselor]

We each write our favorite memory or an achievement from the year on a blank ornament. Then we can go back and relive those memories every year when we decorate the tree. It's my favorite tradition.

[@DoItOnaDime]

What a wonderful tradition! 😊

[@cheekyjonez3916]

So sweet!

[@denisetarabori553]

Wow! These are such simple yet elegant inspirations. I loved them allllll ❤❤❤

[@LorJade]

I love the idea of the gingerbread men to hang on the garland over the fireplace.

[@marissajohnson297]

Love these tips. However, pipe cleaners are bettee than zip ties to make bows, that way you can use the bendy ends to attach them to wreaths, garlands, etc. They usually still have them at DT too!

[@KaterinaPR]

Thank you for the membership idea! I just joined and I'm excited to learn new things to make. I want this Christmas 🎄 and next year to be the beginning of my handcrafted era!🎉

[@hopehasty5039]

I started fresh with Christmas tree decorations last year. I grew up with a very eclectic tree (a few ball ornaments, but mainly homemade or gifted ornaments from friends & family), so I wanted to do something between that and a Dickens style: large jingle bells and velvet bows, mixed with gifts from 2 ornament exchanges and souvenir ornaments from special trips (my favorite was a stuffed "Buc-ee" ornament from my first stop at that massive gas station during a road trip 😄)! One thing I miss from childhood is Christmas fun in the kitchen, but I live alone with a tiny kitchen.... But I have a big crafting area, so this year I want to find the modeling clays you used and make those adorable ornaments!! I never knew how easy it is to dry oranges- if I can find them very soon, their color would make them the perfect fall-into-winter crossover additions on tables and mantles. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas, enthusiasm, and beautiful personality with all of us-- I pray you have a blessed day! 😊🥰🌻🎄

[@sophiaspampinato3240]

Thanks for the craftsy membership. MY favorite thing about your videos is when you tell everyone that they are enough. Your Christmas decor is very classy. That's coming from a foral designer of 25 years.. You could also add fresh cypress to your garlands and/or wreaths.

[@randysmith9902]

I love these ornaments! My store didn’t have the brown clay… but I got some of the “clay” model fluff from the toy section (the one with Elmo on the package). I got red, yellow, and 2 green (no white at my store), mixed them together and got the perfect brown! It was sooooo sticky!!! And didn’t cut cleanly, my husband suggested putting it in the fridge before cutting. It worked!! After rolling it between wax paper I put it in the fridge for just a few minutes and it cut so much better! I also cut it on a dollar tree pizza pan which was better than the wax paper on the kitchen table. I was surprised as they dry they feel just like craft foam! Which makes so much sense 😅 (I just use my husbands google/youtube account 😋 just makes it easier)

[@Bonnie-mc9zo]

Oh gosh, I really like the candle with the cinnamon on it so simple oh, I’m gonna send my daughter some of them. She loves the cinnamon. Thank you.❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@chrisgarvey7638]

It’s fun to do some of the things we used to do in the 50’s. You are so creative. I forgot a lot of the things we did as kids. I have traditions I have passed along to my family but I see some things here I forgot about!!! Thank you for sharing ❤️❤️❤️

[@jia4519]

Can you do a video on how you did your mantel decorations step by step? It's absolutely gorgeous

[@kellypassalaqua3427]

You aced it Kathryn! Thanks! 💕

[@terrigallagher5998]

[@ginaroche2223]

Your home is gorgeous. So many beautiful ideas for Christmas 🎄 ❤

[@Shawnieb]

Amen! The muppet’s Christmas carol is the best!

[@dianes825]

I love your ideas for Christmas decorations. Your tips on how to make attainable and affordable items and transform them into a luxurious surrounding is much appreciated. I am heading to the dollar store.

[@blujawsiii6884]

I bought that same tree a couple years ago and I love it! This will be our third year and I just love all the lights and the look. The height and width for our space is perfect, not to big or small!

[@gailallen2895]

My Mother was dipping sweet gum balls in silver paint in the 50s and I doubt she thought she was creative just the option she had. Outdoors was our Dollar store. Like all your ideas and the mantle is gorgeous. Home Alone is my favorite.❤

[@PeggyAndrusk-z7m]

Love your videos and ideas. A Christmas Carol is my all time favorite Christmas movie, pretty much every version of it! I would’ve loved to have been there during those times in England. Love all the ideas and I’m going to use several of them. Your home is gorgeous and seems so warm and cozy. Thanks for the ideas and all your videos!!!❤

[@vfred5109]

I just love your decor this year. So beautiful, whimsy, yet elegant. Nice job. And your sweet personality tops it off so well. We all just adore you Katherine.

[@mistymcclanahan1138]

❤️❤️❤️ amazing video and such great ideas. 💚💚💚 My favorite ornament is the gingerbread man, so adorable. 🥰 I always decorate early but this year I’m decorating even earlier. 😂 I think we all could use some cheer a little longer. 🎄🎄🎄

[@laquillaharris8756]

THIS WAS BEAUTIFUL I ❤ THE GINGERBREAD MEN AND THE CINNAMON STICKS GLUED ON THE LIGHTS.

[@Panlove28]

This is so cute I love the way you decorated everything. It really brought the rooms to life! We love watching A Charlie Brown Christmas every year, it never gets old lol

[@grisespino5342]

Your fireplace garland is so pretty. Love how it drapes to the floor. The air dry clay gingerbread man! 👌I’ve tried salt dough, unfortunately it bubbles up when baked. Such a festive inspirational video! Thanks

[@tracieconnor6925]

Gorgeous and that paint color above your fireplace! Chefs kiss!

[@terribushta6032]

Thank you for all the ideas. Everything is beautiful. 😊

[@mrs.kz123]

Love the clay ornament! we've been making salt dough ornaments and paper chains for the garland as a tradition for a handful of years now, my kiddos look forward to it and I love it too😊

[@katherinepickens8067]

I've love all the Christmas ornaments you created. Your crafting ideas along with the way you decorate your home is awesome. But then I have to add how you clean and organize your home etc. Your putting your organizational skills as well as your talents to great use. Hope you don't get exhausted before the holidays arrive. You might consider making a video on how to organize your life to include taking care of yourselves when you have a busy life such as yours. 💕

[@CynthiaManning-tp1rn]

Thanks for sharing all the wonderful ideas. Blessings ❤️ 🙏 😊

[@zubblegum]

You’re such a beautiful soul ♥️

[@elizabethmayrose8521]

Girl, you are amazing! I love your style. A Dickensian Christmas is my favorite. I’m a choir director and I dress my singers in Dickensian caroling costumes. The people love seeing us in costume, singing Victorian Christmas carols. You have inspired me so much with your video. Thank you!

[@wandaurie8102]

My favorite ornaments are the ones my kids made while they were growing up. They touch my heart!

[@lisamalcolm6916]

Kathryn, wow how Beautiful everything in your home looks ! Just so pretty, love your Christmas tree and I’ve been on the hunt for a Christmas tree. My husband loves to get a real tree but I figured I could go around our property and clip clippings to bring that scent and natural green in but have a faux tree. We bought our home in March of this year and we are loving it and I am so excited to decorate for Christmas this year and have been picking things up …house is getting organized too thanks to your inspiration and just wanted to say thank you for bringing us in to see your home .👏👏💕💕

[@elizabethsokol2545]

❤ This is a fantastic video. It really is getting me into a Christmas mood. I love your ideas for decorating our vintage items. I used air-dry clay to make a ghost for Halloween and am excited to learn how to make more crafts on my own. My favorite Christmas movie is the Man Who Invented Christmas about Charles Dickens.

[@laurabucher6280]

Thank you for the inspirational ideas. Love your projects. 😊

[@susanjeffries5108]

Muppet Christmas Carol is awesome! We love it so much, too. Last year the Oregon Symphony played the instrumental soundtrack to the show while we watched the movie on a gigantic screen. We've done this for quite a few shows at the symphony but this one was one of the best. The music is so good! Muppets can say all the sweet things and it doesn't sound sappy LOL.

[@Arguewithmeandlose]

These ideas truly help me so much I love you channel so much ❤

[@jaimebh30]

I love the tree! I hope to remember to add some classic elegance to my tree. I hope you and your family have a great week!

[@kimberlyobrien132]

Fantastic ideas! Fun decorations and a beautiful home!

[@kimberlysimpson6356]

I love this! The Dickens theme is timeless, for sure. I’m inspired!

[@jessieb7290]

Dickensian/Victorian Christmases were all about home made crafting and making do with whatever you have. Christmas crackers were made for the tree or table. Cards were already mass produced by this time too. Adding popcorn or dried fruit to the tree is a possibility and they used to add small candles to the tree; although many people lost homes because of this. If you find and gather pine cones outdoors or twigs; these can be used and reused as crafts for next year. The season was also about giving to those less fortunate and in London at the time; people were given coins or a day off work….which in a time when people would literally work themselves to death; it was a god send.

[@MargaritaMartinez-v5q]

Beautiful garland❤

[@nmarie34]

I love the The Dickins decorating idea. I plan trying the gingerbread and oranges. Love you and your channel!

[@JacksonSewingAcademy]

I love your design style. Your fireplace and bookshelves are set up like mine but our home is all wood. I would love it if my husband let me lighten some of the wood.

[@marshaanderson9176]
