ST PATRICK'S DAY DECORATE WITH ME // LIVING ROOM + TABLE TOP DECOR // COOK WITH ME HEALTHY DINNER

[@dianewhitmire5068]

I share the amazing true story of St. Patrick every year to my kids. It still brings me to tears and the message is truly unforgettable.

[@yolandamarshall872]

I love decorating for St.Patrick's Day. One fun activity I did with my Elementary school students in the library: I would print out different leprechauns and I would hide them around the library. This worked for the younger kids. I would then give each student a gold candy coin. For older students I made the hunt with riddles they had to figure out to find the correct picture I had taped around the room. Ex. This is the plant believed to bring good luck- 4 leaf 🍀 I numbered the pictures and they had to fill out the form with the riddle and number on picture. My students looked forward to this activity every year! Love all your decor so cute! I also decorate with the Annalee dolls!

[@ashleys4652]

The new furniture layout in the living room looks great, much more open and spacious. My mother used to make me shamrock shaped sandwiches from cookie cutters for my school lunch around St Patrick's Day. I can see you doing that, too. ☘💚😉

[@meshiesno]

Suggestion: If your going to leave the window seat.. you should paint it white so it doesn’t look.. unfinished. You could attach some kind of decorative molding across the edge and some antique legs. I wish I lived closer, I would gladly help you sew some new cushions. Love the recipes. The kids thinking the fish was chicken is awesome😆

[@chazh8765]

I'm from Ireland! Nice to see some st Patrick's decor for a change!😍🍀🍀🍀

[@trtlduv07]

Awww! Ya I feel like no one ever decorates for this holiday! I always have since I was little! I am a quarter Irish though so maybe that’s why!! I also love shamrocks and rainbows so I think the decor is adorable!☘️🌈

[@shabbychicnic]

I love how your supervisor, Enzo is making sure you get the decorating done. Love that green pitcher.

[@sandylash7439]

You have the best seasonal decor Lauren. I always look forward to these videos you put together for us. I was actually watching some of your Easter videos from last year. I purchased a bunch of those faux cabbages, lettuce last year. I'm on the hunt for the table runner. Thank you for always inspiring us.

[@LaurenNicholsen]

Oh thank you!!! Here is one I found: amzn.to/3Ci8pqa

@@LaurenNicholsen thank you so much! You're the best 🥰🥰 **ordered

[@lacyconroy7916]

The living room is gorgeous and timeless. My first house was a 1928 bungalow, I loved staying true to that era and decorating to enhance the classic, historic feel. Topiaries make everything better! It's very clear you love your home and I totally get it - Just remember, no matter where life takes you, this home will always stay with you.

[@danielleallen9678]

I like the furniture layout in the living room 👍🏾

[@shirleygardner7456]

Lauren I love the living room. It’s so open but still cozy. Your St Patrick’s decorations are adorable. I decorate for every occasion. I started doing this when my kids were small. Now they have kids of their own. My grandkid’s are 16 and 17 and they look forward to seeing my decorations. If I’m a little late with my monthly decorations they ask me why I haven’t switched. My mom is in a nursing home and I change her decorations every month so she doesn’t tire of looking at things. She looks forward to the change each.month. Your a such a good mother and I love how you are always doing things for them. Have a wonderful week and will be waiting for your next video.

[@patriciareeps3389]

The living room looks great. I love all the green touches. I’m a March baby. Both grandparents were from Ireland so I do decorate for St Patrick’s. Since my name is Patricia it’s pretty much expected I do the living room dining and kitchen. One of my sons makes corned beef and cabbage for the day

[@sunnyinhawaii1]

LIVING ROOM furniture is perfect - removing a couple chairs has enlarged the space (calming) and given more purpose to “just family” (or something like that - hard to describe). LOVE the green touches everywhere and leprechaun theme!! Dining table is TOO FUN , definitely sets the mood to find the pot o’ gold at the end of the rainbow! Thanks for your hard, dedicated work to make this happen seasonally - you’re truly the GOLDEN girl!!

[@natvtxn1213]

I think your livingroom looks so much better without so many chairs. I love that tablescape! I used to decorate for St Pat's when my kids and grandkids were little, but now I just decorate for spring in general, with touches for Valentines and Easter.

[@LaurenNicholsen]

I love it!!!

[@hmmmblyat]

That looks so cute ! I love that table scape. And I love to see how you cook for your family! Well done☘️🌈🧚🏻🇮🇪

[@deekeene4273]

Living room looks very nice with green pillows & your children are sure to enjoy your mantel decor! My only St. Patrick's Day decor is a live Shamrock plant & it is doing so well now & little white flowers. You should get one.

[@123stephanieb]

My sweet dad passed away last St. Patrick's Day and this helped me look forward to the holiday a little more and not be sad. Thank you for all you do Lauren. XO

[@loandang4237]

I DON’T BELIVE MY EYE WHEN I SEE YOU DECORATING LIKE IT…. I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEE IT SOOOOO MUCH, THANK YOU LAUREN.🍀☘️🍀☘️❤️🍀💖🍀❤️💖🍀🍀🍀🍀💖💖❤️

[@elecbarberella]

I think a good chunky cable knit throw pillow looks good with St Pat’s decor. Reminds me of Ireland and Irish wool and Celtic knots. I never would have thought of cabbage as St Pat’s decor, but it totally makes sense! And the leprechaun traps are adorable!

[@gracecabral7081]

Lauren luv the decor the greens everything looks beautiful St.Patrick’s day is my birthday so glad you got to post the video. Have a great Sunday 😘🍀

[@stephaniehaines4454]

Living area looks sooo good !!! Plenty of open airiness … not over done and less is more on the furniture ❤️

[@susy-pc8yd]

Breathtaking as always, may you always be blessed to have the patience and love to fulfill these details with your loved ones.

[@juliep.4483]

really love how you reworked the living room! It's just beautiful 💚🍀🌈

[@pamcook5629]

My St. Patrick's Day decorations are on my coffee table. I have a few Anna Lee Christmas mice. I think that they are so cute. Your living room problem seems to be solved. It looks great. Thank you for decorating so much for your kids. They will never forget.

[@DMinSFBay]

I love your cats. And I love that you give them respect and the freedom to climb and roam around your house.

[@alidasanjose897]

Hi Lauren, the living room came out very nice. It looks bigger now. The St Patrick's decor came out so cute.. adorable your meals always look so yummy !! Enjoy your holiday. Have a great week.

[@carriem4719]

Your St. Patrick’s decor is so charming 🧙🏻‍♀️We’re so lucky 🍀 you shared it with us. The new living room arrangement is perfect!

[@ksl2634]

I personally love it when you keep the smaller holidays simple, and let the rich style/ detailed decor of your home speak for itself. Just opens up the space more! Absolutely adore your tablescapes though! 💜

[@lorimartin7828]

Hi Lauren! Just had to say hi, and thank you for being my introduction to the KZbin video world many months ago. You were my first person to watch, and I enjoy your style and your home. Love your seasonal decorating! Lori from Wisconsin

[@Mademj8008]

First let me say, this song is amazing and uplifting. Second, I love your decor.

[@jasmineeelarae13]

Seeing all the green this time of year is always an instant mood boost because springtime is my favorite time of year! Your dinner looked so delicious!

[@heathers510]

I love your table scape! ☘️ I’ve never been one to decorate much for St Patrick’s Day but you really have made me wonder why! What you put together was both cut and fun but still elegant. That’s what I like.

[@serenityelissa669]

Love how your living room arrangement turned out, Lauren!

[@christinebaxter8660]

I love your video style with the decor and then a recipe. Good balance and I like seeing both in 1 video.

[@marthabirch4687]

Love the open feel in your living room...the bench is great and the fireplace below the window looks so nice! The kids will live the green decor💚💚💚

[@teresahatfield4521]

Your St Patrick's Day decor looks great! Your decor looks so nice. Your living room looks great. Looks better since you removed some of the chairs. You were right. It looks more open now! Thanks for sharing! I decorate for all holidays. I don't cook anything special. Your green pillow are a nice touch. Look great!!

[@fmm269]

That dinner looked amazing!

[@wendyeskelin8765]

I really like how the living room is set up. I like it with the chairs blocking the dining room and I like it open too. I think I like it open more. And with the couch there you can see the fireplace really well and the tv without too much turning as well. The previous owners of our house had the kitchen/nook and the living room separated with a large antique side table which looked really nice but we opened it up so it flowed and it felt so much bigger. I love that the mossy table runner is back, it's so cute and I love the new blanket with the clovers on them.

[@kelleycordero]

Creative and fun decorating! I’m going to try that delicious looking recipe for a Friday dinner this Lent Season

[@candywilkins386]

Lauren your home looks stunning as usual!!! I dont decorate for st. Patrick's day but it would be fun oneday to do that. I remember many holidays staying up all night just to make it special for my children when they were little! Just to see a smile on their faces was pure joy as a mama!!!! Being a mama is the hardest job in the world but the most rewarding!😁 I love the tablescape and it looks like a lot of fun in your home!🏠🏠🏠 I cant wait until I get a home oneday and some grandkids!🐇🐇🐣🐣🐣🐰🐰🐰🏠🏠🏠

Living room rearranged looks great

[@sailorarwen6101]

When I was in 4th grade my teacher had the class design and build leprechaun traps. When we got to school all the traps had been set off and little gold coins were in the traps. It was so fun and magical. That was 22 years ago and I still very fondly remember that and plan on having my kids make leprechaun traps.

[@LaurenNicholsen]

I did!! I just got home on Friday! It was so relaxing! I meditated, read books, worked out, relaxed in the sun. It is the most restorative trip I take each year! I would LOVE to make a tablet format - I will look into how to do that! 💕💕

[@annemariebaldwin8602]

Omg!!!! Your living room looks totally different!! It looks amazing! So much bigger! Love the rectangular bench in the middle! You never disappoint in any of your decorating!! I’m Irish so I definitely decorate for St. Paddy’s! Fortunately since Easter is late this year I go all out for St Paddy’s. I adore Easter and it’s Over the Top so when Easter falls in early April I do skip St Paddy’s. But I LOVE your channel! You are an inspiration indeed! God Bless!

[@vickyzeretzke9374]

[@kathyhallhaller6760]

Like the living room. More restful. As a kindergarten teacher and now a grandmother of 11 I sneak in green food coloring in bottom of clear pitcher. Standing back I have the kids say Abra Cadabra as I pour in white milk and it magically turns green

[@joanndelise7292]

Hi Lauren the living room looks so pretty, love how you rearranged the furniture and decorated for St. Patrick's day. I love the figures, Anna Lee, I collect them. I've always found mostly at TJ Maxx, and some other stores. The tablescape is fantastic, I'm a grown up and I was excited, I'm sure the kids are as well. The salad looks delicious, I have to make. Appreciate these recipes. Have a blessed week.

Amazing St. Patrick decor. Love the colors and the cabbage 😍 I found the same rainbows 🌈 cushion at Marshall. Love it ❤ Happy St Patrick's day 🎉

☘️I absolutely loved watching this !!

Amazing!! Looks like the Emerald fields of Ireland 🇮🇪 Keep up the fun relaxing vlogs! Your children will have such fond & rich☘️ memories. 💚 from a huge Canadian fan!!

[@suzieflowers5696]

I make Colcannon every year my family looks forward to it , I’m Irish but don’t decorate to much since my kids are grown but put a few things for the grandkids ☘️🍀☘️🍀💚💚

[@ellehobbs6331]

The new living room is fabulous! Looks so functional and elegant. In Australia we don’t really celebrate or acknowledge St Patrick’s day unless you are Irish. This video is making me very excited to decorate and surprise my girls for Easter!

[@laurie4275]

My children always built Leprechaun traps the night before. The next morning they awoke to find mischief had occurred all over the house, and the gold bait had been taken, bur no leprechauns were ever caught. Big black pots of gold wrapped candies always went to school with the kids to share with their classrooms. (I had teacher permission ahead of time). The scrapbook albums are full of great photos. The kids are all grown and gone now, and I miss this fun!

[@hannahbaker6617]

Wow you really go all out for St. Patrick's Day

[@brownxblonde]

I don't usually do much for valentine's or St. Pat's but this year I've done NOTHING! I just wasn't feeling it and with all the toddler toys I constantly feel like there's so much anyway. I'm trying to get motivated for Easter because I do love it and ushering in Spring vibes. Plus my littles are suddenly really into it. But the Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving-Christmas rush took it all out of me!

[@ginafriend1690]

Nice dinner 😋! Decor .. less is more, looks great 🍀 I bought those lit white trees at Lobby Hobby last November. No I do not decorate nor cook for St Pat's. I use to go out to the Irish bars, but now just have food ordered for pick up! "A good friend is like a four-leaf clover, hard to find and lucky to have one" Cheers and enjoy! 🪙💚🍀

[@donnacrosleythibault812]

Lauren, the little tufted figures are called Annalee’s. As you mentioned, Home Goods Carrie’s them throughout the year for different occasions. They are really popular at Christmas time. Children especially like them as they look like little mice. Anyway, decorations look awesome as always. Love the living room with all the touches of green. Where did you pick up the blanket/through you have on the coffee table. It’s gorgeous. Til next time. Have a great week.

[@susancole3151]

Hi Lauren, love your channel! I love the Annalee’s and ordered quite of few Christmas 2019. My friend was shopping Homegoods before the following Easter and they had quite an assortment. So cute! Wish I “still” had your energy. You’re amazing! 💕 Susan from NC

[@cherylsmallsreed6019]

Your room looks soooo much better.

[@SamSmithVev0]

You are amazing. Here’s why. 1. You literally would give Irish people a run for their money with these amazing decorations. Trust me I would know, 100% Irish through and through. 2. You make things very simple and easy to bring together. Everything is affordable and super simple, but collectively are amazing. 3. You are authentic AF.. I see them marks on your lush cream couch, and you didn’t try and edit that shit out, love this. This is normal behaviour. Your house is lived in and that shits totally normal. Not all channels like hours do are just so down to earth. Love your ideas. I’m gonna try and make a start with my collection. To be sure, to be sure.

[@LaurenNicholsen]

Thank you!!! There are stains all over! Whatevs 💕💕💕

Yes, I would use potatoes as well because of the Irish influences. I actually have potatoes as candles made of wax so that’s even easier. They were from Illuminations back in the dayyyyy...I loved that store.

Love what you do to make all of the holiday memories for your kiddos. They are fortunate to have such a committed mom. I was a designer for many years ( retired now) I enjoy all of your ideas and try to do some thing for each holiday myself. My daughter also still decorates even though her two have bought their own homes. It is very satisfying to still have a creative flair. Lauren just keep doing what you do, it makes thousands of people happy, and finally I love your recipes ❤️

[@alexandramelius8427]

I wasn’t going to decorate for St Patrick’s day anymore (I get too excited to decorate for Easter and do it way early 😂) but your decor has inspired me! I think I have to recreate your “Leprechauns in the garden” tablescape! Seriously everything you create is stunning… if you ever create a coffee table book with photos of your decorating, I would buy one immediately! Thank you for sharing ♥️

[@Coldstone8418]

Absolutely love how you decorated. Very cute little decorations that you’re calling the leprechauns.They are the little mice dolls from Annalee. They’re made in New Hampshire all by hand. They make them for every holiday and special occasion. They are absolutely beautiful. You have a wonderful collection of them.💚 I can’t believe that you can find them at HomeGoods now. I can’t wait to get down there and look for some. Your table looks incredible. I love it.💚
