 back to my channel. Excuse me, I'm sorry, my voice. I woke up with it being kind of wonky this morning, I'm not sure what's going on if I'm like starting a cold or if it's just the fact that we slept in this morning. But the girls and I have just kind of been hanging around the house and I am getting ready to decorate so I thought I would do a kind of a vlog style decorate with me this year and I'm hoping to get all of the at least main floor decorated today and hopefully the bedrooms. The coffee bar is something that will be a separate video and you guys will be seeing that tomorrow and then I think the playroom, I'm gonna actually have like a fun day and let the girls decorate their own tree and stuff like that this week. So today I'm just gonna see what I can get done and it's literally about ready to either snow or rain. It's so cloudy and so dim and dark. So excuse the lighting if it's a little bit up off and on through this video. So I think we're just gonna go ahead and get started and I need to make myself a cup of coffee. I haven't done that yet. Today is actually Cyber Monday and so I've been posting deals on my Instagram account all morning and I'm ready for a cup of coffee. Okay, I have my coffee made and I'm ready to get rolling and as I go I'm gonna be cleaning with these three. They are the three Mrs. Myers holiday scents from Grove and I know you probably already know this and have heard other people say this but I'm just gonna let you know that there is a link below for you to get an entire set of one of these scents for free. It comes with a dish soap and I believe a cleaning caddy and a hand soap that would, you can choose your scents of what you want for each of those. So actually that's one of the things I'm gonna start with is changing out my stuff by my sink for the holiday scents and then I'm going to do this corner and fill these buckets. And if you guys missed it, I did do a Thanksgiving cleanup where I took down all of my fall decor. So everything is very bare and it's a fresh start to redecorate. 🎵 The angels in the setting from it said to scum it 🎵 So I think I am going to move on to the dining room. I might come back in here. You know how it is. You kind of have leftovers and you can stick some things different places but I love what's set up so far and I had had some greenery in these before and I decided you know what? Be kind of cute to do pine cones. Last year I actually went and picked these. I have two bags of them and I spray painted them. So it's something that I can use every year and just very simple. I like my counter space out here. So I just kind of went simple with that. I think I'm gonna get some battery operated lights for up in here yet. Tomorrow I'll probably pick those up at the store. I do have a few but I'm gonna save them for the banister. So yeah, I love what I have going on so far. Oh and one more thing. I get questions about this little stand all the time. It's actually metal and it is from Hobby Lobby. So yeah, that's where it's from and if you can find it there, especially on sale, it's a really good price. I wanted a little stand like this but I really wanted one that was metal so I can wash it when soap gets in it and things like that. This is in our dining room and these are the next two areas, this little spot and then also this one as well that I'm gonna be working on and I'm not exactly sure what all I'm gonna do yet. I know, sorry there's like Christmas decor everywhere. I picked these up at Michael's and I'm gonna actually cut them and I wanna attach them around the edge of my sign here and this is from Walmart. If you guys are curious, it was with their fall decor. So yeah, I think I got these specifically for this sign so I'm hoping I can figure out a way to attach them and then I'll figure out what I'm gonna do on here. And having a good, good time from Santa's coming. I'm thrilled with how that turned out. I love it and then I actually have a video. I'll link below. I did a tutorial on how to make these little globes. I did that last year and I just like this. It's very simple and the table is right here so I have a centerpiece or whatever so I don't want too much going on back here but I really like this and again I might get some battery operated lights for in there, I'm not sure yet. Okay, I'm gonna show you guys a little decor hack. This is something that is down the line of chalkboards but something very different. I've actually never seen anybody do this besides myself. This is an old cookie sheet. It's actually from the thrift store. I probably paid like a buck for it or something like that. And I, every once in a while, go ahead and take the paint off of it and redo it. It's fun, it's kind of like chalk if you hear somebody gibbering in the background. It's just hazely and she just knocked my tripod. As long as you use like acrylic craft paint and this is just the kind that you can get from Walmart. I think it's like 50 cents or something like that. You can just use a cleaner and I don't remember what I used the last time to clean it off but I'm just gonna use my method anti-back and some wet wipes and wipe it all off. Sure, cause I was getting a little bit warm but I'm slowly making it through everything and this clock back here, my grandfather actually made and I refurbished it a little bit. It had mechanisms that were broken and so now I enjoy decorating it. For different seasons and of course just in normal decor but I think I'm ready to head on to the living room now. All right, so this is the current state of this wall in the living room and the girls are playing in the background so that's what you're hearing. So generally I put my Christmas tree here so I think one of these end tables is gonna go upstairs in the playroom to put the little Christmas tree on that the girls have and then I'm gonna take survivor, that's that plant's name if you guys don't know, there's a vlog about that but I'm gonna take him and put him upstairs on a little plant stand and probably move this couch down just a little bit so that the tree will fit there. We're gonna go to a tree farm and get the tree and I'm gonna attempt to flock my tree. So we'll see how that goes and then I had like a whole entire basket and stuff on here for the fall but now I'm gonna put something different there and then this I actually got for a really great steal at Michael's and I'm really excited it's something I've never bought a big piece like this that's specifically for a season so I'm excited to put this up on the wall and I have some other things that are gonna go up here. I use command strips although if I remember right behind one of these there's a spot that the command strip was pulled off wrong and there might be some paint missing so I'm gonna try to cover that up until I get time to touch it up probably whenever winter's over I'll touch up the paint. So this here I can leave up pretty much most of the winter it's not super Christmassy so that's what I love to do is leave up a lot of my winter decor not just for Christmas. That clears my mind I'm all for a good start I hear the jingle bells people singing. Okay so this is kind of what I have going on in this corner for the moment I need to do a little spot treatment there on the carpet and right there so I think I'm gonna do that this afternoon so the tree will go in here and that like I said earlier is gonna be flocked and also I am gonna do a Christmas house tour probably next week when I'm completely done getting everything decorated but I think I'm gonna switch ends of the room and work on the built in bookshelf now. It's cold outside the tingles in my heart clears my mind I'm all for a good start hear the jingle bells people singing about love. All right I love what I've got going on here but I'm gonna switch gears a little bit because I'm not sure what I wanna fill in with yet here and I'm gonna do the stockings on the banister. I am on my way I'm in motion yeah let's go hang out on the beach without free we'll be chilling and having a good good time it's Santa's coming to visit no he wouldn't have been a good good All right you guys well at that is all the decorating that I got done today I thought I would get way more done but in between the taking care of the girls and everything that's kind of what I got finished but throughout my vlogs in the next week or so I'll be decorating like my room and other areas of the house so stay tuned for those and I'm really happy with everything that I've so far put together I'm just excited to be able to leave it up for more than just Christmas a lot of it is just a very winter theme so I know I don't have to worry about taking it all down as soon as Christmas is over I hope you guys are excited for the rest of Vlogmas if you're new to my channel don't forget to hit that subscribe button give this video a like and I'll see you guys in tomorrow's video
