Best holiday music album? I'll go first: gotttttta be A Charlie Brown Christmas, right? RIGHT?

I was told I am not allowed to watch this until Christmas :O what could it be!!

I met Jan Brett, author & illustrator of The Mitten (and many more equally delightful books). She signed a book for my mom, who had been a librarian before Alzheimers made her have to retire, and Jan Brett was one of her favorite authors. Mom died 6 years ago this past July. The holidays aren't the same without her. Thank you for mentioning The Mitten- i hadn't thought about that night in a long time.

I've never been more thankful for Kathleen. I've got a cold and I can't thrift (thanks for the water reminder), so I'm 100% living vicariously though this entire video. This video has a vibe I have decided to call "chaotic cozy," which sounds like a D&D alignment Kathleen would definitely have (and also me too probably.)

I'm a winter person, and it's so sad that so many people hate this season. I think winter is so unique with long darkness and how everything gets slower and quieter. It's given me a feeling of peace. Regardless, I love your videos and hope you have a good time during the holiday season❤

I love this take on decorating for Christmas, "doesn't have to look like Santa's workshop to feel festive" yay! Thanks for a refreshing reminder to be ourselves this winter season. I give this a 10/10!

This was a favorite pair of fuzzy socks levels of cozy! I watched it in my Hanukkah pajamas with my mug of tea on the couch, and it gave me inspiration for my own decorations.

I just love the vintage goodies! Love that the candles matched those napkins on the table. And your stairs are so great for small holiday things... Great display space!

I'm recovering from surgery, and I don't plan on decorating this year, so I'm living vicariously through you, and I have to say, SO TOOT AND COZY!!!!

10/10 thrift finds and cozy-eepy vibes this week! Also my inner maximalist really wants to see how Kathleen would decorate if she had more storage in her home🤣 (no doubt it would be a vintage holiday explosion the entirety of Ohio would talk about for eternity)

Super cozy! The little round knit house (crochet house?) made me remember the Christmas items my Nana would make with coffee cans and yarn. The easiest ones, which we also did in school, was wrapping cans that had both sides open with yarn from top to bottom all around, and you could put Christmas cards around the yarn and it'd make a decoration all on its own.

last weeks video inspired me to make decorations for the house but we were gonna be just my mom and me this year so I thought that it wasn't necessary. but today I asked my friends if they would come over and now I'm hosting a new year's celebration for the first time in my life suuuper excited and definitely will try and do similar paper decorations I think yours looked so cute

FYI for the white stained glass tree you have, the metal holding it together is likely lead so wash your hands after touching it! usually ok to keep but definitely wash your hands before eating anything!

I went with a white Christmas theme. it all started with an amazing white vase I thrifted months ago. Kept my eyes peeled for more white and scored again and again with vases, pots, flowers. Added thrifted brass, gold, silver and I’m in snow land. I love thrifting!

"the best gifts come with a threat" I chuckled

Kathleen always posts at a time, where I can start my Monday morning in central Europe with her videos. Delightful!

I can't wait til I have my own space that I can fill with thrifted festive goodies!

Haha, the surprise Gif of Changbin showing what he's got was such a delightful gif.....t. Haaaa
