Your videos always lift the spirits, no matter what is happening in the world.

I’m such a weak fool for stationary. My whole heart always tells me, “yes, get it. There is no price for joy.” But my wallet tells me otherwise. Such a dilemma.😂

I have been writing common place books for about 50 years .Up until today I didn't know that they were actually a thing.I always have one on the go and they are great fun to look back on.

Christmas with Miranda!!! All my favorite Christmas content!!! We love all of it!! Don't forget our Christmas Postcards from Yorkshire again!! Your content is superb 🎄🥂🎄

Loved this! So full of wonderful ideas, I especially loved the Starsmead notebooks, the ceramics and the woollies. I love Seasalt, I have quite a few clothes from them, such lovely patterns and colours. I am going to check out the Closet and Botts berets, I love a nice hat, and what scrumptious colours. I bought the Alice Melvin advent calendar for my daughter this year, it is adorable. I am sure she will want to open the windows though so perhaps I’ll glue them shut after Christmas so we can get it out again next year! I love getting my Emily Sutton toy shop one out as a yearly decoration. Love your suggestions for little things to make December special, the chocolate box and special hot chocolates especially, I think I’ll have to adopt those ideas! Thanks for another lovely video and all the inspiration.

Thank you for such lovely gift recommendations! I had to watch the video a second time to take notes! So many gifts to buy! I have loved Bosie's fair Isle sweaters this year!

I have watched and loved your book recommendations for some time now and I’m watching the posts I’ve not yet watched. Thank you for recommending several books I have loved and plenty more to get too! I’ve even recommended to my book club. Can I just say - the minute I heard you describe Booths Supermarket as a Yorkshire supermarket it made me smile. Booths was born many years ago in Blackpool! Yes, the seaside town- with the tower - in the heart of Lancashire. I’m a Lancashire lass and we hold OUR Booths in high esteem- nip down there and you will always find quality food. I am sure that they have stretched into Cumbria and Yorkshire but they started in Lancashire. You know about the War of the Roses - only kidding! Lancastrians will always hold that food shop in their ❤️! It was delightful to hear you mention Booths but is is more delightful to listen to your recommendations for excellent books - time after time! Thank you.

All of this so very lovely! Thank you for sharing! I had never heard the word commonplace book before but realized I have been keeping them all my life and that they are more or less the same as a florilegium.

I particularly want to thank you for the recommended magazines and journals. I once was given a subscription as a Christmas present and loved receiving the magazines, which seemed always to appear unexpectedly during the unfolding year, causing a frisson of delight each time. Thanks for taking the time for this extra video on other-than-books Christmas gifts - though it's hard for me to believe, I know not everyone wants a book and it's such a joy to find unusual selections.

Hi Miranda, we're getting some early snow here in Vancouver today, so it was great to watch your video and get in the holiday mood! I love the idea of the commonplace book, and almost appreciate all of your selections for adding small festive touches either with decorations or a special drink. Thanks!

Thank you for this gift guide! I was pleased to learn about "Commonplace Books," because I have recently started keeping one (actually I have two kinds, one is shorter and the other for more extended annotations) and I didn't even know that there already was a concept for it!

Lovely!! This video has certainly gotten me excited about the Christmas season and the pleasures of treating those we love (and ourselves, of course😌) to beautiful, well made and thoughtfully selected gifts. Thank you for highlighting so many small, independent businesses. The notebooks and commonplace books are exquisite and I love the artwork on the Christmas cards you selected. Carefully picking out and writing my Christmas cards is one of my favorite holiday traditions. Hope you and Donna are having an enjoyable weekend!💕

Brilliant ideas and thanks you again for the effort you put in in creating your lovely videos. They are a real 'feel good' watch. I meant to ask on the previous video whether you do the Hidden Books Game each year? The game for 2022 has just come out and I'm sure that with your amazing knowledge of books you'd be very good at it. You'll find it at Caboodle/National Book Tokens. All correct entries go in a draw for a £500 book token.

At the risk of sounding pedantic, Belvoir is pronounced bee-var. The chatelaine hosts a podcast which is where I discovered I had been pronouncing it wrong for years!
