CHRISTMAS IS COMING: DECORATING OUR CHRISTMAS TREE 2021 | TRADITIONAL & COLOURFUL (Part 1)// Happy Tuesday, The festive season is upon us and in today's video we start by decorating our Christmas tree. We bought some new ornaments from Germany but also use our decoration that we've had for many years and created a very traditional and colourful Christmas tree. A tree like this is quite German and decorating it this way is our absolute way. We so hope you like it! Stay tuned for Part 2 of us decorating our house - the video will be coming this Friday. Joerg & Kirsten xx

I am not sure why, but it seems people are decorating earlier this year. I think it is great! I have put some of my decorations out and I enjoy them so much 🎄

Hi, its such a lovely tree and I love old fashioned Christmas trees. You so inspired me to go to the websites you showed in your buying ornaments video. I went to the sites you suggested and found others as well. Inge’s in Germany is excellent as well. I collect German and Austrian pine cone ornaments and have some from my grandmother that were an amazing shade of hot pink blown glass with a piece of tinsel inside. What a strange color I thought. However, after doing some research. I found out many of the early German ornament colors were very bright! I ordered four new pine cones and of course, one mushroom. Please tell the story about mushrooms ‘amanitas’ on the tree in Christmas and New Years decor. And of course, the Gnomes! Thanks for giving my Christmas a ‘kick start’. I live in France.
Thank you, Prince Albert for the wonderful trees and ornaments from Germany you introduced us to in Queen Victoria’s reign. The Germans excell in making the most beautiful ornaments still today 🥰
It is hard to believe we are around to this time already. I loved seeing the candle arch last year and here we are again. Jorge, that is the same reaction I have when asked if I’d like dessert with my coffee. Your tree is so sweet. I put mine up the day after our Thanksgiving. I love decorating the house for Christmas. My mother always made it such a special time. I just wish the magic fairies would come along after and put all the decorations away. Love to you both for showing all of us your lovely country and your special traditions.
Early Merry Christmas from the Foot hills of the Smoky Mountains, Tennessee. I have my tree up too. Have a Blessed week!

Ist mir heute Morgen siedend heiß aufgefallen, nächsten Sonntag ist der erste Advent! Da habe ich heute glatt angefangen, das Haus zu schmücken. Einen schönen Christbaumschmuck habt ihr da. Sehr geschmackvoll. Gefällt mir sehr gut. Unseren Baum müssen wir noch kaufen. Es gibt noch keine. Wir schmücken ihn erst an Heiligen Abend. Tschüß bis nächste Woche! LG von Annette

A very beautiful tree. All the mercury glass ornaments make it so glamorous and then the folky handmade family gifts set it off. It’s just incredible. You could take the trim you got in the mail and wrap the wreaths in the windows or place it near the very top of tree to make a tree topper frame. You did wonderful job. I’m in the spirit watching the coziness and love.
Simply stated -You both make me smile. Thank you for that. 🎄. Love the tree!
What a beautifully decorated tree! I love how you put so much thought into placement and not just stick each ornament in "wherever". Every ornament has a meaning or memory attached to it, wonderful!
Wow, muy...hermoso el árbol de navidad, los ornamentos son preciosos 🎄💖🎄💖🎄gracias por compartir, saludos desde Costa Rica,Centroamérica 🎄💯👌👍🎯👏👏👏
I was disappointed that you did not show more of the decorating! It's never boring!
Hello Kirsten and Jörg, you two are such a sweet and adorable couple. How you interact with each other and the love and care you display towards each other makes my heart melt. And, Kirsten, seeing you and also the two of you together will never be boring. I love how you decorated your christmas tree with all the gorgeous and also sweet and silly ornaments. It looks wonderful. I was still in autumn mood, but you lit the spark. And now the christmas spirit has entered my home as well. And seeing you again and again how you put so much effort into setting the table and using your nice china, litting a candle and kind of celebrating it, i started doing that more and more too. It lights my mood up every time. So, thank you for everything you are and everything you do. You two are just lovely and wonderful human beings. Hearty greetings from Saarland, Germany ❤❤

It is always a pleasure to see folk such as yourselves display such class in all that you do. The tree decorations are so festive, and overall, this video was very enjoyable. I was a youngster in the Netherlands where we celebrated St. Nicolas, and as kids, you never forget these occasions. But the most important of all, was of course, the birth of our Saviour. Thank you.
Es ist erst August, aber es erwärmt das Herz, Sie so zu sehen. Wundervoll
Such a beautifully decorated tree. I love that all the decorations have a special meaning and memories for you. The little angels that your sister made are lovely. Kirsten your dress is beautiful too 😃
Stunning tree. So festive with the red touches and the new tinsel stands out tying everything together xxx
its going to be wonderful to get one garland per year!
Your tree is lovely. And I like the idea that the tinsel is expensive, and we don't have to have all we want all at once. We can add to the length year by year and have something to look forward to.
I don’t do Christmas usually as I don’t have any family nearby, but I think I might give it a go this year and get a few friends round! Thank you both for your eternal joy and enthusiasm for life. ❤ from Somerset.
That sheep ornament is adorable! I love the unique (to me anyway) ornaments. What a beautiful collection of ornaments.!
I just love a traditional, sentimental tree! It looks beautiful Kirsten and Joerg, can hardly wait for part two. Thanks for the warm feelings that come with this video...I love Christmas!!!
Is not early because you make us happy too…don’t pay attention to negative energies. The decorations are lovely all. You are a blessed couple of love and both of you share that love with us. Hugs of light and love always.🎄🌟🧑🏻🎄🎅🏻😍😍
The tree is stunning! I love all the traditional and sentimental ornaments. All the magical and whimsical details really capture the spirit of the season! Everything is so old-fashioned and beautiful, yet simple and elegant! I never thought of putting a tree in the kitchen. What an original idea! I look forward to Past 2 - can't wait to see what other decorations you add to the rest of the house! Thank you so much for this episode. It really put me in the mood to celebrate the season.
Sehr schöner Baum 🎄! Wenn man jetzt nicht in Weihnachtsstimmung kommt, weiß ich‘s nicht. Wir haben tatsächlich auch vielen Baumschmuck von Lauscha aber diese Häschen sind auch wirklich sehr putzig 🥰. Es war eine Freude euch beim Schmücken zuzugucken. Eine schöne Vorweihnachtszeit wünschen Regina & Jörg aus Köln

I love a traditional Christmas Tree and yours is so lovely. I love your dress, Kirsten! Looking forward to seeing you again…soon!
Preparations early enable us to enjoy, remember and reflect on the reason for the season. In America my family always decorate our trees the day after American Thanksgiving (always the 4th Thursday of November). Outside decorations go up mid- November... Before the Big Game Hunting Season starts and temps are still in the mid 40°s (F).
Ein traumhaft schöner Baum ! Ich mag euch ! 👍❤❤
Your tree looks amazing, again this year. Even though there is no German in my ancestry I can't imagine Christmastime without hand-blown glass ornaments, a lighted pyramid, a cute wooden incense burner, nutcrackers, and Christmas morning stollen. I would love to sip mulled wine at a German Christmas market someday. How delightful that would be!
The tree is beautiful. I love the candle lights because they remind me of my childhood when we used to use real candles in little clip holders. No Elf and safety in days of yore. X
It's so perfect. Brought tears, reminding me of all the beautiful things my mother did for Christmas
You two were truly meant for each other. You are a pleasure to watch. Those rose ornaments are gorgeous! All of your ornaments are so nice.

Gosh, that tree is gorgeous! Love your new candles, too! See you again soon!
The tree looks fantastic. Beautiful Christmas ornaments. Christmas 🎄 is in the Air. Great 👍 job decorating.
Kirsten, I wanted to "share a tip" ...I used to drip hot wax in my candleholders so candles sticks fit snug. But one day, I thought of using double-sided white sticky craft foam tape. You can wrap it around base of candle or put a small amount in bottom of candle holder. It holds candles very firmly. Love your beautiful ornaments, which are perfect for a cozy, elegant Christmas

Yes, I always use hot wax too - just didn't show it in the video. Will look into your foam tape tip. Thank you!
Wow... fabulous ornaments...spent 4 yrs in the army at vilseck, GE back in late 1970's many yrs ago...close to grafenwer... military bases... beautiful country. Thx for the reminder and memories 💖🇺🇸
You could put the tinsel in another place in your home, such as on green garland over the fire place in your snug…it is beautiful! Joerg is right, in five years you’ll have enough for the tree. 😊

Growing up we had German made tensil, ornaments and some Italian blown ornaments. I wish I still had them.
It is a Tradition now and so nice to see all the new ornaments added perfection indeed
Just lovely. I’m getting one of my two trees out soon also. The single strand of tinsel garland looks fine. I actually have my original vintage strand that looks nearly identical to yours except mine is silver. It was my Great Grandmother Daderdinks who came over from Germany through Ellis Island. I have several of her ornaments from Germany and England.
