I grew up during the decades of real bubble lights. I bought the same bubble lights you have. I live in America. I bought 6 strings of them when my kids were teens, so they could experience what I grew up with. I now have a very beautiful. woodland theme this year. No more bubble lights! ❤❤❤ Your home looked lovely. I make modern Mercury baubles. Let me know if you'd like some for next Christmas. I'd send you some. ❤❤❤

I’m 59, born in the 60s so I grew up in the 70s and 80s. Missed the bubble lights era, but as a kid we did the cloves in the oranges (always a school project!), paper garlands which we used during Advent to count down to Christmas, and TINSEL which I still miss! I used that well in to the late 80s just after college and then it all of a sudden disappeared in the 90s. Tinsel was great! Except when my cats would try and eat it 😭 😂 and you do NOT want that happening 😬. Lovely tree and room, beautiful job!

I was born in 1952 in Connecticut, and this brings back memories. The (live) tree was kept outside in the cold until Christmas Eve, when my father brought it in, set it up, and put on the strings of lights. Yes, we had bubble lights. Also, so many unique ornaments. We children always tired of the tinsel before we were done and ended up tossing handfuls. We also made popcorn-cranberry chains and paper chains. Putting up the tree on Christmas Eve meant it was incredibly special on Christmas morning. I've always thought having it there for weeks takes the wonder away.

Hi Sage, The Christmas tree, garland, popcorn, and orange decor turned out beautifully! It actually reminded me of my Christmases as a little girl back in the 60s. We always had a real tree but when the artificial silver tree came into fashion, my mother made the switch. In the evenings, I would sit by that tree just gazing at it thinking how beautiful it was. Thank you for reminding me how precious those Christmases were. Sadly, this will be your last Christmas at this lovely home. But, know that you will always have the memories created there. I wish you and James a blessed Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year.

Looks lovely Sage, I look forward to your Christmas videos every season! The pastel garlands will be perfect for Easter and any springtime or baby shower type events you may host in the future! Where I live it's cold at Christmas and one year we did an "outdoor" Christmas tree covered in edible decorations like berry, nut, and popcorn garlands, dried orange slices, and bird seed and suet ornaments. It was intended as a gift to the forest animals and as well as being a beautiful memory it was so amazing to see all the birds and critters feasting together on the tree on Christmas morning out the window! (It's usually not great to feed wild animals of course but a small exception at Christmas it not likely to cause a problem.)

My childhood was in the 1950s & teenager in 1960s. My absolute favorite were the fresh trees we cutdown & the bubble lights. They were so amazing to me. Sadly over the years, they became broken & gone. Every once un a while I get a bubble light night light. Just like when I was little, i can't wait until it warms up to bubble. Our tree was not complete without stringing popcorn. And like you did, we hung our paperchains all over the house. I still have ornaments from those years & delight every year they are opened. A tradition starting with my kids & grandkids is to give an ornament each year symbolizing a special event, or trip, or new hobby, etc. You represent these eras so very well. Thanks for the memories. ALWAYS look forward to your videos! Moving the everything in tour living room by yourself...trumpet! 🌲🌲🌲💗

Beautifully done, Sage. We decorate with oranges, cloves, gingerbread, pomegranates, apples, cinnamon sticks, pretty ribbons, candy canes, holly, and evergreens. We've always done popcorn with cranberries on our string for around the tree. I have the bubble lights as well! And we also use tinsel. It doesn't seem like a proper tree without at least a little tinsel amongst all the ornaments. When my parents lived in Germany, they brought back a whole host of ornaments to go with the ones that had been handed down for generations (some from Germany in the late 1800s), including so many handmade ones. They're all on my trees now. Though the oldest, most precious, and most fragile ones get displayed where our cats can't easily knock them over!

I was born in 1962, and I remember the silver tinsel, which we call * Lametta * in Germany. We always had a real tree with beautiful baubles and real candles and also sparklers. The candles would only be on for a short time because they would burn down quite quickly and of course were a fire hazard, but they made the tree look so festive. In Germany the tree was put up and decorated on the 24th of December and the children would not see it before the evening when it was time for the presents. Oh, the magic of seeing the tree, and the house smelled so wonderful of the food that mum was preparing all day long. I miss those days. I am living in the UK for 25 years now, but we still celebrate on the 24th and again on the 25th as my husband is British. My children are now all grown up, but they always loved having 2 big Christmas days. Best of both worlds, as they call it. :) I love your videos, they always make me happy.

I live in Germany now, and we're currently under loads of snow, so I'm getting that traditional, winter wonderland type of Christmas season. For Christmas I'm used to it , but come New year's, I'm super weirded out by it being cold, since in my head it's associated with summer and the beach 😅

Nice video. I had a similar issue of placing the Christmas tree. I rearranged the furniture in my flat during the summer and didn't even consider Christmas. The only place the large tree will go is next to the TV, but I guess it's kind of fun having to peek around the tree to see the TV. I think the tree should be in the focal point of a room. The little tree has been decorated out mostly in spun silk baubles, which I love.

I have to block off a door to put up a tree in my house. There are more doors than there is space. The last house was the same size but so much easier to decorate. This one is a nightmare. I hate doing it every year. It’s got so bad that some years it doesn’t get done till after Christmas and only because someone is visiting. Christmas used to be my favourite time of year too! It all seems like too much hassle now and no fun. I guess I got old too quick. You getting stuck behind the tree was hilarious. Sorry for laughing but I needed that.

Lovely as always. When I was young and we decorated the tree with Tinsel, my dad stressed separating the Tinsel one, by one before laying them on the branches. It added so much. Thank you for reminding me of those sweet memories. 🎄

Lovely lovely. So glad to see you posting again. I'm a little curious about your air conditioner. Hope you're still able to stay cool. You have such a knack for making things beautiful. God bless you and James this season.

Dont forget to "fluff" your branches for a more full look! I have a tree about the same size, and it takes about an hour to fluff up the branches, otherwise ours looks so scraggly! Love the bubble lights, I think my kiddos would kill them though lol

You could use a toilet or kitchen roll tube to wrap the string garland when you put it away for next year. To stop it getting tangled 🎄

We call the silver strings “angels hair” in Poland. I remember putting them on as a child. We used to do “chains” out of the colourful paper and snowflake like cutouts and put them on as well. We would complete with my sister who’s chain is the longest, we’d be at it for hours 🤩

All of that is splendid as is so much of your stuff! Next time, try to keep a path out so that you are not stuck behind the tree for all eternity! Be blessed and have a wonderful Christmas and New Year!

One year I made a ton of salt dough hearts and hung them with red ribbon. The tree was beautiful.

I love the essence of your wonderful decorations and traditions. They give off such a comforting, cozy feeling. P.S. there's a Hallmark Christmas movie "A Biltmore Christmas" that I think you would love! The 1940's fashions and overall vintage vibe would be right up your alley!

Beautiful decorations. As a kid we always made the paper chains and popcorn Garland. Kids these days miss out on allot of the old fashion ways of Christmas. Thank you for sharing.
