DIY curtain fix, Guest bedroom ROOM DECOR, Christmas Home Decor

Our somewhat English country guest room not only got a little Christmas decor, but I did a DIY no-sew project by making four window treatment panels into six. I'm also sharing how I make my award winning (in my family at least) butterscotch rolls ( recipe link is below) and how I was duped by the persimmons that were supposed to predict the weather for us. Within this video, I am also asking your interest about reading home and lifestyle magazines vs home and lifestyle coffee table books.

    During a major snowstorm, while many of us are getting up to two feet of snow, I edited this video to upload. I hope you enjoy the few topics I'm sharing. I know I said I was going to do a few short videos, but I realized that creating a longer one, that includes several topics, is less editing and uploading time. I know! How selfish of me! ;-).

    Making an annual coffee table book would probably be a better balance of your time too, rather than stress on making multiple magazine deadlines. You are amazing woman, have your home organized and decorated perfectly, you bake and cook with love for family and friends....I would love you as my friend! You know the secret of a great life....balance, taking time to enjoy the little moments in daily life, creating a loving "nest" of home, honoring our country's heritage, finding "treasures" at little stores, creating from nature etc. Yep, you are one very talented, giving, caring soul! I love your videos!

    Country Curtains are really the best for quality & price! I got 3 valences (Hatfield pattern) and they look so great in my 1803 house's living room. Cutting the panels - great idea! Butterscotch Rolls - another great idea - not having to rise dough is a time saver. I would love a SEASONAL magazine! New England has so much to offer, Linda you are the best to hightlight it!

    I am really enjoying your channel. I am a former New Englander, who lived in Andover, Boston, Watertown as well as Burlington, VT. My family then moved to upstate NY which was very colonial in its culture and design. I am now retired and due to downsizing had to sell many of my antiques and here in southern Georgia/northern Florida the appreciation for this era of design is not as desirable so seeing your channel makes my heart sing. Merry Christmas 🎄 and a happy new year 🎊 to you and your family!

I do have a collection of TOH magazines because I find tips and tricks within those pages that have guided me through projects. I live in a condo so I have to be mindful of what I’m able to store in this small space. Please DO a coffee table book, I would snatch that up 🙂!

I've recently bought bedding for the visitors bedroom and it's classic like you have in your video. My friend always wants me to go for more bright colours but she likes a Bohemian look. That's not my style. So off I went to ' work ' knowing I had your video to reward me when I came back inside. Thanks for showing us how to use the webbing. The curtains looked nice at the end. Thanks for the recipe too, looks delicious. Regarding your question. I would like both magazines and a coffee table book but personally I would find it easier to buy your coffee table book.
