No Spend, Natural Winter Wonderland

[@FairylandCottage]

Happy Sunday to you all 💚 I hope you enjoy this festive video today. Keeping it low waste and cosy as always. Have a great week and thanks for watching 🤗🧚‍♀️🐝🍀

[@hanaoshimapiano]

Even though it's getting wintery here, it's amazing how much you can still forage in the forests! There's an abundance of chickweed, so when I go out today I'll have to keep my eyes open for other wonders the forests leave for holiday decorations 😊

[@carolynfaulkner5643]

Hi - can you show me where the links are to a green way and 3 magpies?

[@LifeByDesignWithNiamh]

This video could not have made me happier! I did a sustainable Christmas decorations video on my channel where I talked about how when we were growing up in Dublin we used to go up the Wicklow Mountains to pick all our greenery for the house. Brings back memories 😊 So nice to see. Thanks!

[@penelope8948]

Lovely, simple, creative, as always. Thank you for your inspiration and serenity. Made it through the fires here in California with your help!

[@kayw3906]

I love this, wish I could go foraging for Christmas decor but the desert isn't very good for that! 🎄

[@careyareaparanormalenergyr9355]

Would also like to remind everyone what my Dad said to me as I gathered pinecones “ you’re taking their food away from them” 😊 So only take what you need and leave an offering of seeds, suet, bread, fruit in return! 🐿

[@shar1ngthemusic]

😊 That is great of you to point out ❤️

[@FairylandCottage]

Great idea!! 🍂

[@careyareaparanormalenergyr9355]

@@FairylandCottage thanks, I will tell Dad that you and others like this idea. Dad is 91 ❤️

[@sammieclarkart]

Yes that is a good point! I would opt for seeds (ones that aren't going to plant themselves and become invasive). Bread isn't the best for animals as it fills their bellies without giving them any nutrition and can lead to digestive issues for animals like squirrels that aren't very discerning eaters.

My grandmother always used to go foraging for natural things to make centerpieces and arrangements, a wonderful tradition that she passed on to me. Now I do it with my 6 year old grandson. Everything you made turned out beautiful! This was so relaxing. Thank you so much for sharing 😊

[@FairylandCottage]

Beautiful to carry on your grandmothers traditions

[@AlannahMcQuade]

I went to the woods near my house to collect some Holly for a garland last week and noticed none had their berries yet. It turns out Holly trees are either male or female and the female trees produce seeds (the berries) and must be located near a male plant in order to produce the berries!

[@margaretmartin6620]

Who knew? :D

[@gailwoodall815]

No berries on any of our holly bushes either.

[@Butterflybleu14]

Yes, this is correct! I have one of each in my garden that are covered in red berries- but the birds like them too! 🙂

[@marycharlebois6627]

Mid-fifties 🇨🇦ian high school sewing teacher here who has spent a lifetime making things, especially at this time of the year. Yes... in my childhood I was all in for things like glitter, gloss, and glam but now I enjoy crafting and decorating with materials from nature or thrifted items too. My favourite decorations are the vintage ones that have been passed down from my parents because they are sentimental. There’s so much we can do without making a trip to the stores... and yes Niamh I couldn’t agree with you more... there’s something therapeutic about spending a wintery afternoon making things to brighten the season (especially this year ARGH!!). As always, thank-you for sharing this warm and relaxing video.

[@user-es5fk5vm4u]

Mmmm, I like cones very much! There is not fireplace at home, but using it as decor is amazing. Often bring from travel all over the world shells, cones, leafs and so on for craft . Your ideas are great!

[@ih4630]

When a friend from the UK came over to stay in Canada, she rented an apartment and bought a faux fireplace right away. It looks great and she can decorate it year-round according to the seasons. And her apartment always looks warm and cozy...

Another calming, peaceful video with stunning scenery. I find myself eagerly awaiting Sunday mornings for your weekly post. Thank you.

[@FairylandCottage]

Ah thank you

[@Brooder85]

I love the nakedness of the trees in winter; it makes the forest so much more mystical and mysterious. That little tree is so unique and charming. Those Santa wood chips almost looked like cookies. 😄

[@lovingsunshine3515]

This is so beautiful and so calming to watch. You are such an inspiration to me to use whatever I have in my home and to be content with what I already have even though it's not what's trending. Whenever I have the urge to buy something online, I come back to your channel and that feeling goes away bc I truly have everything I need. Your Christmas decorations are so beautiful and it's such a breath of fresh air not seeing another Christmas haul from Target, Hobby Lobby etc that everyone on KZbin is doing. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us and reminding us that there is beauty in living simply. I wanted to ask you, how long does all the greenery that you used for garland and wreaths last before they welt and die?

[@FairylandCottage]

Ah thanks Darlene, It depends what greenery it is. It wilts after a few weeks but then I just it up. Evergreen is the best as it doesn’t wilt!

[@lovingsunshine3515]

Thank you so much for responding! I didn't expect it lol. You are such an inspiration!

[@queencallipygos]

One lovely idea I've borrowed from an aunt - When I was a child everyone would travel to the town where my grandparents and one set of my aunt/uncles each lived; my aunt and uncle had a huge house, so the out-of-towners would stay there, as we would each have our own guest room and the cousins could all play together raising havoc in the house. My aunt and uncle had a huge collection of books, including lots of picture books, because they didn't have a television. And every Christmas my aunt would pull out all of the winter and Christmas-themed books out front and center, bringing them out of the playroom and scattering them all throughout the house; a couple stacks on one end table in the front room, another few beside a window seat, some of the sillier ones in the room where my brother and cousins would try playing snooker (they had a snooker table)... It was a wonderful invitation to sit a moment and flip through a book or two. I was a bookworm and would sometimes end up on the couch reading for hours, ignoring my younger cousins who wanted to arm wrestle or chase each other or whatever they were up to. I've started doing that myself - each year I treat myself to one new book, going all the way back to when a teacher gave me a copy of A CHRISTMAS CAROL when I was eleven, and that joins the stacks I set out throughout my apartment.

[@apritam2648]

You've become my therapy.

[@asianangel5400]

I like that you are transitioning into winter slowly and naturally. Here in America, Christmas is being pushed on so quickly. I love the holidays but only as they come not being rushed.

[@dianechaniewski293]

Hello my friend! This was lovely. I loved your new tree that you made!!! You could even keep it up all year long and change the decorations with the seasons if you wanted to. Your snowman ornament was my favorite. I also loved the laughter when you were trying to take down some of the ivy. You have a great laugh! Thank you for this! (Also, a card is headed out your way this week! ;-) )

[@FairylandCottage]

Ah thanks Diane!! I look forward to receiving your card. Xxx have a great week

My mom would be right there with you. (She was a healthy portion Irish...and raised on a farm.) She was a crafter, as were/are all her daughters. She would have adored the simplicity, whimsy, and beauty of your tree ornaments especially.

[@MayoUtuk]

Living in a rural cottage has shaped my life in the most unexpected way... and coming here on KZbin and seeing you document you journey in the most calming way, makes me realise just how blessed I am . Sometimes we spend too much time complaining about where we should be and what we should be and we miss out on the beauty in the season that we are. This is a gentle reminder that nothing is without purpose. Thank you for inspiring me to document my journey, its the best decision I ever made, you are truly beam of light 🌄

What a lovely message to receive. Thank you my dear. You have the secret to life my friend. I checked out your videos and they are beautiful. Well done for documenting your gentle life with the world. Xxx

[@mfnannygram]

I must have been channeling my inner Fairyland Cottage today, here in New England in the US. I gathered pinecones from our woods, cut some holly (female plant with berries) to make an arrangement for our front door, and got fairy lights for our mantle. When all that was done, I had a cup of peppermint tea and watched your video while knitting some holiday gifts. Lovely end to a cozy Sunday. Cheers.

[@rhondacurrier4592]

Loved the music as we took the walk in the serene and peaceful forest...and finding all the lovely treasures from nature. I to enjoy collecting Ivy, Holly, and Evergreen branches for decorating. We have a male and female Holly bush, so we have "baby" berries 🤭...lol...September thru January...then the birds eat them. 🙄 I adore the log centerpiece and pinecones...I'm going to have to look for a log! 😉 I also like turning pinecones into bird treats by coating them in nut butter and seeds and hanging them from tree branches. The log tree was absolutely precious and your ornaments so adorable! I think you are very creative and artistic...we each have our unique style...love that! 😊 I have been painting pottery ornaments for gifts...and find it so relaxing and calming to paint...and exciting to get them back from the kiln. And, I'm inspired me to collect some Ivy for a wreath, as yours was so pretty and welcoming on your red door! Your home will be a cozy retreat thru the winter holidays! 😊 Peaceful, cozy days are wished for you this season. ❤ Blessings to you! 😘

Beautiful! I love your decorations! I've used an almost identical table center piece for the last three Christmases. I use an old wooden dough platter instead of a log. I'll send you a picture on Instagram when I put it together this years.

Niamh good morning. I was feeling a bit scattered and out of focus today, for a few days actually. So I decided to visit Fairyland Cottage for some grounding.

I reckon this is as close as it gets to authentic decorations. The land has always given us everything we need, so why buy tinsel? Love it! Obviously, we need to be mindful of what we take and only take what we need, but it is such a better way of living if we do so sustainably :-)

Thank you for your hard work to produce these videos, I appreciate them and the virtual friendship that I think many here feel that they have in this community. Also, you remind me of a friend that I used to play with when I would fly across the pond to visit my grandparents in Kilkenny. Have a great week.

I was meaning to thank you for this video, it's so inspiring! I discovered the playground of my daughter's school is surrounded by ivy on all sides, so I am going to muster up my courage and snip some today for decorations. We only purchased some new fairy lights, as sadly, our present ones died out. For the rest, I am just shuffling dried flowers, candles and containers around the home and put some toy deer next to some candles. It can be SO simple yet so comforting. Thank you!

[@margaretquinn5335]

So creative and cosy. Thanks Niamh. The garden centres in Ireland sell holly trees that produce berries every year. You may need to ask for the ones with the berries. We learned the hard way waiting for years for our holly to produce berries. We have lots of holly berries now in our garden covered in berries for the birds.

[@NadineTouzet]

My neighbour’s holly has had its berries starting in August, it’s a female specimen. They turned red sometime in October. Mine is a male one, no berries.

[@jennyfulcher8035]

I love your homemade Christmas tree and decorations! Very festive and creative. Also the greenery, cones, candles and fairy lights to add some lovely natural touches of the season. Many years ago my Mother and I created "Santas and Soldiers" ornaments using paint, cottonballs, gold cord, and felt, all glued and painted onto wooden clothes pins. I've also painted a Santa onto a small, round cardboard box, his hat being the lid. Last year I strung up my collection of felted woodland animals. Not sure what I'll create this year but your video has provided me with some more inspiration. Happy Holidays to you. Jenny

[@sailorgirl2017]

Again, a beautiful and peaceful Christmas decorating experience with you Niamh. Thank you. This year I will look for Ivy to wrap with boughs around the mast that runs through our galley and salon and into the keel. It is my "tree" every year. I've been wanting to try making an orange garland but it would take quite a bit of propane to dry in the oven - I'm going to ask around the marina to see if someone has a dehydrator I may borrow. Wish me luck. What I love about this is that I won't need the storage space for the artificial boughs I've had for a decade anymore. I will donate them to a thrift store. Everything can go back to the forest floor when I'm done. Also, I will go the ivy/holly route around my grapevine wreath and hang on the wooden "gate" we have on our sailboat so all can see it. Don't know why it took me til this year to realize it's the perfect place for the wreath. LOL...Better late than never. Until next Sunday wishing you a peaceful and joyful week ahead.

This year I made a wreath to the door I used decoration from the woods. In my country you can find wreath from natural material and you can decorate. I covered with moss and decorated with other things I found in the woods. The best thing you can reuse the wreath next year with a brand new decoration, I did with anther wreath from last year.

I love taking walks and getting pieces of wood, pine cones and any other things I can find. Here in Madrid we can't cut or pick holly without a permit. It's protected if we did we would have to pay a 2.000 € fine. It happens with other species too. Depending where you live in Spain sometimes you can't take anything because it's prohibited even to pick pine cones of the floor. 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️. Love your tree. Take care XXX

I still love your Christmas decorating/Christmas card making video from last year 😍 I watch it a lot because it's so cozy and enjoyable no matter the time of year lol I loved how you had the lights set up, and I always love your use of pine cones! Brilliant, economical, and practical 🙌 thanks for this lovely video.

This was the best holiday video I’ve ever seen. I get so tired of the commercialized decorations you see this time of year. You even managed to put me in the Christmas spirit. ❤️ 🎅🏻

Lovely Christmas decorations!! I love your natural and beautiful creations. I wish I could find ivy here... I love living in Australia but I do miss winter white Christmas 🎄
