Miriam's Manner

Hello, I am Miriam and welcome to Miriam's manner. Miriam's manner is a lifestyle channel sharing useful information on my 3 favorite hobbies: Gardening, Home Decor, Everything Christmas.

This channel will give tips and tutorials on how to beautify any space for Christmas, including trees, wreaths, mantels, garland, tables and so much more. It will also provide tutorials on how to build various things for your Christmas snow village.

It will also cover information about gardening and we will tackle the different challenges that come with gardening in the desert and how to overcome them.

We will discuss home decor ideas and DIY videos. I will share ideas on how to take any space from basic to beautiful.

Lastly, this channel is a platform for us to share ideas and tips so we can learn together as a community. So please subscribe so your voice can be heard.

    I just found your channel. Thanks for the tip on using a remote switch for turning the lights on and off. I've been collecting for years and my village has grown. It's a pain crawling under the display to hit the off button on each electrical strip. I'm adding this to my supply list.

    Oh okay, I see. I didn’t understand what you were saying. It’s not about organizing, it’s that those fences were in my accessory bin. I thought I pulled the correct bin out but I didn’t and I didn’t feel like going and getting the other accessory and figurine bins out. They are behind other heavy bins. 🤣😂😀. What I could really use is a larger storage closet, I have to much Christmas village stuff. 😂

    Hey Miriam, do you feel it needs a coat of plaster of Paris over the bandage first before painting, just to hide the bandage texture? Iv used spray expanding foam but the painting all the nooks and crannies is a nightmare. Thought adding the bandage first would make it easier for painting. Thanks.
