Love those realistic ripples you created in the water!😊
Miriam, the platforms look amazing and are inspiring me with ideas on how to utilize my own. Thank you!
Thanks so much and you are very welcome!
Beautiful
Thank you! 😁
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.
You are so welcome, glad to help! 😁
Do you do the fall or Halloween scenes. Winter one are amazing
Thanks Peggy. No, I only do villages at Christmas time. However, my 2023 village was more summer because I didn’t add any snow at all.
😍❤
👍🏽
How big is the xtra large base. I might need the smaller one
Hey Andrew, I have attached the link below to that Etsy listing. If you look I. The “more info” setting, you will see the individual dimensions for each piece of the base. miriamsmanner.etsy.com/listing/1740789640
@@MiriamsMannerthank you. I think we would just need the large
You Have inspired me into Christmas display stuff, I love Jesus and have always loved Christmas, I will be building my 1st display this year. Thanks for all your Videos!
Awe, I am so happy to hear that. I hope you have so much fun with your first display! 😁
You need to organize 😉
What???
You talked about looking for your fences lol!
I'm enjoying the staging videos.
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. 😂
Hello! I had a quick question for the little village. Are we allowed to do a sugar n spice or santas workshop theme or does it have to be the realistic looking people/buildings?
Of course, you can do whatever you want as long as the pieces are Lemax. 😁
@@MiriamsManneroh ok!! Thank you I'm excited.
Is wonderful !
Thank you!
How do you connect lights to your village???
Do you mean for this platform in particular or how I set up my village? I can add holes to any platform to run the cords through. I set up my lights differently in my village. I do have a set up video in 2022 that shows it.
the details wow
Thanks.
Yay!!🎉
👍🏽
I love these videos! So inspiring! I purchased some of the tables and chairs that you used last year, but painted them white. With my Cricut I made sticker for the top that was a candy swirl in red! It was perfect for the front of my cocoa stand!
Awe, what a beautiful idea. I bet that turned out so cute!!
Thank for sharing this beautiful set up. Looks great!
Thanks so much! 😁
I see new changes in applying new tree accessories, using the (brown sack) pine trees. How affordably creative! What inspired you to use them?
Thanks! I have had those trees since my very first Christmas village. I haven’t used them in a while because they are very large and take up a lot of space. They are great as a background tree though. I bought those from Michael’s 8 years ago.
You look amazing Miriam! Living in the blessings of God, right?
Awe, thanks so much! And yes, I am absolutely loving in God’s blessing. He is so good and I am thankful for Him.
I love the 2nd more , if I would do it , will add a lazy River in those spaces between platform with small boats with people going around to make look Romantic 😊
Great minds think alike! I was thinking of getting blue construction paper to stage it as a rover but I ran out. 😂
I really like the idea of your Modular pieces that can be arranged in several ways and used year after year! New editing software??😮😊
Thanks so much! Yes, I got a new editing software. My son has been playing around with the CapCut editing software for months and he convinced me to get it. 😁😁🤣😂
So cosy and beautiful.. How I wish I could sit there inside such a village, besides a little campfire and forget about all the stress of life.
You and me both! 😁
Very beautiful, thank you Miriam, going to use it
Thank you and you are very welcome! 😁
great set up!
Thank you! 😁
I love both staging options! I had to laugh a little because I saw figurines and thought I have those but something is off….then it hit me! Miriam painted hers!!!!!!
😂🤣😂. Yes girl, I am always painting my figurines.
Love all your ideas,...I have basement filled with styrofoam since i started making your mountains....Never throw any away !!! One question if u can...alot of my styrofaom is the little balls that cover the yard when i cut...can u tell me what kind of styrofoam u use to get the clean cuts.....Thanks again cant wait to start again !!!!!
Hello, did you get my previous response to this comment? Try cutting with a hot knife and you will get a clean cut no matter what type of styrofoam you use.
@@MiriamsManner no didnt see previous one ....but i do have hot needle knife ..it bends when i cut thru large foam soooo ....i guess i need to invest in the knife too....ok will order knife an see if no more tiny snow foam balls cover me an yard !!!!! Thanks !!!!
ps tried to paste pic of my village last years....did it in crates to try....but wont paste pic here......
Very Nice thank you So much for sharing
Thank you! You are very welcome. 😁
Thank you! There are so many ideas for my village. Blessings!
You are very welcome. God bless you too. 😁
Very nice! Those blips threw me off for a minute! 😂 Love the bridges. Since I use the Dickens pieces, I could probably fit 12 to 15, depending on the layout, since the are smaller. 🎄🎄
🤣😂🤣. I got a new editing software so I’m trying something new. Did it seem weird? Please be honest. Yes, it can fit more with smaller pieces.
@@MiriamsManner I think it's cute. It just caught me off guard as it's new. 😁 I like sound transitions.
Really gorgeous❤❤❤❤
Thank you! 😁
@@MiriamsManner thank you, for reminding us of our favorite holiday!!!
Beautiful

So good to see you back Miriam. Love to watch you do your magic. Happy Christmas in July 🎄🏠❄️
Thanks so much! Happy Christmas in July to you too!
Christmas in July 😍
Me too!
Each day is one day closer to Christmas! Love the tree.
Thanks Rebecca!
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.
Hey Peter, I did add liquid plaster of paris over the plaster strips to hide the holes before painting. You must have missed that part in the video.
It was a nice departure from the heat to watch you today! I don’t know why, but I never thought of painting bases to match the snow! Thanks for the hint! 🇨🇦👏🇨🇦
😂😂😂 You are very welcome!
I paint this kind of stuff. This is cool!!
Thanks so much! 😁
You're getting me pumped! This is very beautiful!
🤣😂🤣. Thank you!

@@MiriamsManner oh, can't wait to hear about it!
