Making a Magnolia Garland | VLOGMAS 2022 Day 9

[@jannier9766]

I love the phrase “imperfectly perfect”. I sometimes overthink things too. I absolutely love the church you showed! ⛪️ Merry Christmas. May everyone experience the peace only found in Jesus Christ.

[@gracerajah8972]

Ralph Lauren should hire you to decorate his home for Christmas ! You are gifted with an eye for beauty ! 🤗🤗🤗

[@willaeklund331]

I absolutely love your garland and greenery. Those wreaths above your kitchen sink are gorgeous too.

[@reniehandler2595]

Adding the greenery just put your decor in first place! Sooooo beautiful!!!!!

[@juanitahill4832]

The magnolia is so naturally beautiful and adds so much more natural decor to your home.. Just lovely!

[@Gramsofboys]

From the homespun magnolia garland to the beautiful window wreaths and hot chocolate prepared on the stove, SO warm and cozy. The love just pours from your home. ❤

[@kathleen8765]

I just love your channel! I love how you use natural elements to decorate year round and especially for the holidays.

[@jojoply]

Put citrus essential oils on the orange

[@momof2momof2]

Our Christmas decor is different each year. This year I moved the living room furniture, so now the tree is in a completely different place than it ever has been. Always at least a few new pieces. I have a lot of seasonal/holiday decor, especially for Christmas and don't use all of it every year. Merry Christmas !

[@joyceprice6749]

The church and homes are beautiful. I love the way you decorate with magnolia. Everytime you decorate with it I think of Steel Magnolias. 😆. You are so blessed to live in an area where you can enjoy such beautiful places. We lost a wonderful family member dearly loved this week. My Christmas spirit I was just getting is now deteriorating. Please keep my family in your prayers. God bless everyone. I love you all. 💙🙏💙

So very sorry for your loss, God bless you this Christmas season 🙏🏼

Those homes were beautiful! That magnolia garland was perfect. Love it.

L'heure bleue "diffuses its atmosphere at the very moment when the sun disappears beneath the horizon and the sky is painted with night's velvet". (From a perfume ad). It is the sweet time when day fades into night. Your home is lovely. Now, put your feet up and relax!

[@dianasimplifies]

It’s done almost nothing but rain here for a week and more coming, I hear ya! ❤

[@themamabearlife3339]

I enjoyed seeing all the homes. Your area is so beautiful! Your home is looking cozy and festive too. 🎄

[@maryohare4141]

I saw someone use their mini hot glue gun tip to melt a hole in plastc oranges and lemons then put the cloves glued into holes. When I use real fruit, I use a meat skewer to poke holes for cloves. It really works great!

[@lisaremy4817]

Hilary, as usual your home looks so warm cozy. The Christmas decor is beautiful. I love all the natural elements you add. Simply lovely ❤️

[@caroleaustin8858]

You live in such a Beautiful Historical place of the country! Lucky you! Garland is bea.

[@debbykaufman848]

Also, it’s called the blue hour, I believe.

[@barbkrieser8972]

Love the garland...each year that you arrange it...the beauty of nature...can't go wrong!!!! TFS ♥️

[@maryohare4141]

THIN RED SHOESTRINGS OR RED AND WHITE CANDY CANE STYLE STRING WOULD BE CUTE FOR HANGING WINDOW WREATH BELLS AND EITHER WOULD MATCH THE WIDE RED RIBBON HOLDING THE WREATHS UP.

[@terryruiz7417]

Hillary has added her live greens, completed her decor for Christmas. Now I feel so much better! I'd really missed your sweet, comfortable decorating...I look forward to it every Christmas!

[@iww6994]

I remember your magnolia garland from last year. Time flies😉🌷

[@steph4248]

I was thinking the same thing! What a quick year.

[@clairetitus6904]

Festive and elegant decorations. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas

[@chlexiel.1022]

That China serving dish....oh my gosh I love it

[@makelifesimple5110]

If you have some citrus or orange essential oil, you can maybe dab a few drops of that onto the faux oranges just to give them a fake citrus scent 😊 ~mandy

[@lorecarabailey935]

I love when you show the beautiful homes 🏡 this time of year I just love ❤️ your channel year round what a beautiful family 👪

[@sherryskinner855]

I am so glad for these type videos! New england homes are beautiful. I also love snow videos

It’s beautiful, Hilary! And I’m sure it smells wonderful, too.

[@1964mae]

Your garland and greenery look beautiful!

[@Lck1972]

I want to than you for showing the beautiful homes and decorations. I live in Dallas now which is nice, however I do miss the homes and colonial touches from Jersey. It is so fun for me to see!

[@lynnehampton1777]

Hi Hilary. I love the homes you showed and also your church We have many homes like that where i live in Pa. I really enjoy looking at old homes. The garland looks do pretty. Faux oranges look pretty with the cloves. Your home looks very festive and cozy. Thanks for another day of vlogmas

[@joysilas4724]

Thank you for taking the time to do vlogmas. My mom and I watch them all!

[@jessicadusky6819]

I love all the natural Christmas decor!❤ It feels so much warmer and cozier than plastic, candy colored stuff. If you don’t already watch Laura Melhuish-Sprague, I think you would like her style. Her Christmas decorations are always stunning!

[@deborahgallagher1477]

It is called l’heure bleue - the blue hour - my favorite time of day/dusk. Your home is lovely.

[@fayehilliard9730]

Your home is lovely, all decorated for Christmas. Thank you for the great videos, and the time it takes to do them. Blessings to your family. Faye (Ohio)

[@TheLittleHomestead1]

I loved the Magnolia garland, it looked so pretty ! :)

[@chelseahill6552]

I absolutely love the idea of the faux oranges with real cloves! Makes it feel a bit more “doable” to me!

[@jeannettec375]

I like the "non-bow" ribbon on the kitchen window wreaths. Simple and lovely. Might copy. 😊

[@joyceprice6749]

It is nice. I thought about doing that to my window. Have a good day. ❤️

[@patl3070]

What a beautiful area!!

[@heartofchocolate9433]

Good Morning Hillary!! Always enjoy your Vlogmas. Loved the houses decked out for Christmas. Everything looks beautiful. I can imagine how cute Jude was recognizing & saying “Orange”. Have a great safe blessed day! ❄️⛸🤍🙏🏼

[@AdrianaCamacho-d2n]

Your garland is beautiful 😍

[@mniaodhagain5180]

Maybe red velvet ribbon to Han the bells from the bottom or middle of you kitchen window wreaths Or even from your silver platter display shelf ?? I love the bells xx ❤❤

[@lilup9138]

Such cozy home 💕

[@msmary126]

I love over thinking my decorations at Christmas! That’s what makes a decoration really fit into a bigger theme. I love all your decorating over the years. Always a little different but always the same feel!

[@Thepumpkinvinecreek]

That garland is so beautiful!

[@Mommyonthegoplustwo]

Beautiful natural elements. 💚

[@Steph61795]

I just love your style and the way you decorated your home. 🎄 Are your sconces above the sink hardwired? I'm looking for some like that but I want battery operated for a stairwell. Thanks for sharing your home and your time with us

[@OldWorldHome]

Yes they are hardwired but there are lots of lovely plug in or battery options 💛

[@mariehall9966]

Hilary , thank you so much for sharing the clip of the beautiful church and homes ! Your home looks lovely as usual, and I just love the natural decor ! God bless you and your loved ones ! ❤🙏🎄🏠🎁

Hi Hillary, it's me Stacie from Portland Oregon. I just wanted to say thank you again for the prompt to make up my cookie batter and freeze it for holiday baking. It has been such a time saver!

[@sueknicely504]

Beautiful

[@lindabodder3377]

Can you use the magnolia garland for more than one year, or do you make it fresh every year?

[@OldWorldHome]

I make it fresh, it dries nicely but kinda shrivels over time

[@ramonawhisenant2045]

Beautiful!!

[@vickiewinfrey2439]

Very pretty

[@margesherwood5103]

What do you use to attach the garland?

[@OldWorldHome]

We have little nails in the top of the built ins that I painted to match 💛

[@darlenebuck3991]

When my grandson was little I had to put away my faux fruit, because he always tried to eat the grapes and I felt so bad if I didn't have any real ones for him!

[@lindasmith5190]

Looking so pretty.

[@debbiem6406]

Merry Christmas and rejoicing our Savior’s birth with you. Recovering from reconstructive surgery on my broken wrist and binge watching your Vlogmas. How terrific that the cloves go into the faux oranges. They’re not plastic? Curious how they were able to be pushed in. Will do the same when I can use both hands again. ❤️

[@debbiem6406]

…Just rewatched that section and caught how you poked the cloves in.

[@jendyson6729]

very pretty!

[@erikastanger7848]

I'm so insanely jealous when I see beautiful northeast homes. We moved from a beautiful place in NY with older Victorian homes everywhere, to Knoxville, and there's nothing like that here whatsoever. We moved for political reasons, so it's worth it, but man, I wish there was a more "red" state in NE. I would have been there in a heartbeat! ♥️

[@PrairieeGirl]

I am from New England too, but I currently live in the Midwest. I desperately miss the quaint villages and those charming old homes. Does anyone know what state she is in?

Could not agree more. We live in MA and because we are older and love our area we will die here but I do so appreciate your sentiment.
