 Hey guys, welcome back to my channel. So excuse my voice if it sounds a little bit off. I'm fighting a cold today, but I'm so excited to finally be able to put this video together. And I'm sure you guys are too. You guys always love whenever you see my holiday decor and this is my second year of really digging into this and doing it and it's so much fun. So I wanted to kind of explain everything and how I went about doing all of this, but I also want to let you guys know that I'm gonna give you some inspiration for possibly Christmas morning and some fun ideas of a food idea you could do. And along with that I wanted to let you know that this video is sponsored by Redmond. They are a company that make appliances that make your life a little bit easier in the kitchen and they sent me, I have the box already open because I've used it a couple times, but they sent me this waffle maker and I'm gonna show you what it looks like right here. It's super compact, super light and my idea for Christmas morning is to do a waffle bar. I'm gonna give you all of the details about that in just a second, but this waffle maker is really great because it has a temperature control which a lot of waffle makers don't have so you can adjust it according to if you want your waffles to be a little more fluffy, a little more crunchy. I am personally a huge waffle lover. It's one of my absolute favorite things aside from cereal and so this was like a big hit and we haven't had a waffle maker in years. My girls love waffles as well and actually I made Corey some this morning and he was thrilled with them. He's like this thing works amazing and another thing that's really cool about it is it makes them extremely fast. I've used different types of waffle makers just for like events and different things and like I said we used to have one years ago and this is the fastest one I've ever used. Also if you hear something in the background it's just my girls playing. You guys know that I'm a fanatic about how I store things and how I organize things and that's something else that's really cool about this is you can store it flat or you can store it in like an upright position if you're tight on cabinet space. Something else that's great is it does have indicator lights on both sides so when you flip it to make the waffle you don't have to worry about it burning or not being notified whenever it's done. If you use the link in my description box you guys will see that there is a $10 off code that you just check the box and it will give you $10 off the already discounted price that this waffle maker is sitting at right now and you are going to want this for your Christmas morning breakfast for sure. And I would say probably the biggest factor about the Redmond waffle maker is that it's got extremely even distribution of the heat so like whenever I make the waffles the whole thing looks like the same color and I know from using other waffle makers that that's usually the problem is that the heat is not distributed correctly and so you get a waffle that's like half one color half another and this one is perfect even Corey made that comment he's like whoa this thing is like picture perfect waffle and it truly is. Don't forget to check out the link in the description box for your Redmond waffle maker and I'm gonna go ahead and show you how I used it. I also wanted to mention that through this decorating video you're gonna see some outfit changes that's because I did some of this stuff on different days and I kind of slowly worked at it in the last little while. Also I may do another decorating video um this was all of the stuff I had from last year that I put out so I may purchase a few more decorations and add them in so if I have enough then I may make another decorating video to come and I also would like to do a Christmas home tour. If you guys would be interested and excited about seeing that let me know in the comments below. To start off you want to decide what you want to put all of your items for your waffle bar in. You could do disposable platters or plates just to make things easy. I decided to use this dish set that my mom gave me. I just thought it was perfect for all the little toppings and then to line up the waffles in. Something else that I added was cinnamon and cocoa powder. Besides sprinkles and chocolate chips I also wanted to crush up some candy canes to do a little bit of a peppermint twist. Another fun topping is whipped cream and it comes in a lot of different flavors. I just did regular and then some chocolate and then I added in some fresh fruit. A different option would be to do a pie filling like a cherry pie filling or a blueberry pie filling to top the waffles with that would be super delicious as well. I like to use a butter flavored spray to spray the inside of the waffle maker. It adds a great flavor and I just used a mix from the store. You could obviously make them from scratch. Another thing that I love about waffle makers is they're really great for keto friendly options as well. You can even buy keto waffle mix and pancake syrup and be included with everyone else if you're trying to stick to a low carb diet. I had a total blast putting this together and there's a huge chance that we will actually do this Christmas morning. It's so delicious and you can do so many different toppings and things with this that everyone can be happy. We had so much fun setting the tree up as a family. This is our first year doing a fake tree but we loved it. I love the fact that it's flocked and it goes so well with my wintery theme. I really love having decorations around that I can leave up well into January because they're more wintery than they are extremely Christmas so that's why I lean more towards a neutral palette and it's something that can be enjoyed longer than just one holiday. Don't forget to hit the link in the description box to get your waffle maker for this holiday season or possibly just to gift it to someone else. Thank you so much for watching.
