I love the Lord with all my heart and my channel and life are centered around Him. My videos are also focused on decorating around my house and of course caring for my amazing family. I hope you enjoy today’s video and I would really appreciate it if you would consider becoming a part of our little CZcams family by simply hitting that little red subscribe button.

    You have quickly become one of my favorites. Love your faith, love of family and friends, your flair and faith. The hand scribed banner was inspired and loved it on the brown butcher paper! Then adding to the garland was beautiful!
    Your entry is beautiful ! Thank you for sharing!

    • @gracefulliving_
      @gracefulliving_  Před 2 lety

      Awwww, you are so kind to say that. Thank you, Marsha. I really appreciate your kindness I am so glad you liked the banner. I love using that packing paper for so many things. Again, I thank you for your kindness. Have a wonderful evening.

    Simply divine. I love the scripture ribbon. You have such beautiful handwriting. Love how you paired the bells with velvet ribbon.
    I want to share how the Lord has spoke through you. Last night my hubby told me I needed to take today for myself. I'm listening but as much as I love him, he is crazy. Thanksgiving is a week away, Christmas decorating and cards, and shopping, and...and...
    I am up at 5. Hubby and momma are still sleeping, I'll get started on my lists.
    I started your video last night but didn't finish. Turned it on. No where on my lists does it say leave room for the Lord to twist and turn. The Lord and my family are most important but instead of getting the best, it is apparent that they were fixing to get what was left.
    So thank you sweet friend. You are such a blessing in my life. I love you and pray that you have a beautiful and blessed rest of the week.

      Well, this comment just made my day and it’s only 7AM. Thank you, Lori. I do appreciate you sharing and of course your kindness. I am so so grateful to you today for you have touched my heart and brought good tears to my eyes. I am so thankful for the opportunity to encourage others through His word. I am grateful the Lord has seen fit to give me the chance to use this platform for His good and His glory. I am thankful that your heart was reached today. Again, I appreciate you. Have a wonderful rest of your day. Take the day for you. Everything else can wait. Recharge and know it will all be there tomorrow. Much love.

    Hi Deena. First of all... your handwriting is stunningly beautiful! Wow!!! And secondly, your style of blacks, browns and tans has always been my style. I love it!!! Thirdly, your words at the end about the sudden unexpected knock on the door or company sure rings true. My home may not be perfectly clean ALL of the time, but if someone does come over, it's clean enough! And lastly, I was invited to the neighbor's home for Christmas a few years ago and all the kids were taking naps, I have no idea where the husband was, and the wife spent the entire time doing something on her computer. I sat there alone, playing with the cat and the dog and finally got up and left. I feel we do need to acknowledge our visitors, offer something to drink ☕ and spend a little time with them, even if we are too busy 💖

      Hello Linda, awww, thank you. You are so kind. Really? Wow! You don’t find “us” too often. I love my neutrals for sure. Yes, exactly. And, they aren’t coming over to see an immaculate house they’re there to see you. Oh, no! That’s horrible. I’m so sorry. Yes! Amen! We should be sure to spend time with them and make them feel welcomed for sure. I pray you have a better time this year. Have a wonderful day.

    Did you hear my big sigh...the calm of your voice is 💯 what I needed today. I love your personal style, and the moss gets me every time, I love it and have now incorporated it into my home. "The tassels " that is something I love snd had been using for quite sometime, until I overheard an unkind comment from someone touring my home. I still use a few, but you have given me the courage to bring them back, I love the look and found such joy in collecting them, especially when they would match my decor perfectly. Thank you so much for sharing and being a part of my day, your home is just so inviting and warm. God bless you and your home and of course the girls.

    • @gracefulliving_
      @gracefulliving_  Před 2 lety

      Awww, you are the sweetest. Thank you. Moss gets me every time too. I love using it. Awww, I’m so glad you use it now too. It’s so perfect. I hate that you had to give tassels up for a bit because of someone else’s thoughts. I have faced people not understanding my thought process when it comes to decorating but over the years have learned it’s ok if they don’t like it. They don’t live here and I want my home to be a reflection of us. This type of decorating brings me a calm and great joy. I’m ok with those two. I say you do what you want. Let your home tell your beautiful story. Be comfortable, confident and calm. Have a blessed day, Dianne.

    Hi Deena - So pretty and I loved all you said about letting the Lord dictate your day. We have our plans but we should be sensitive to what He has planned for us. Thanks for that reminder. I loved how all your decorating turned out today. I like to clean and pick up as I decorate but still usually have a mess anyway. I hurt my back and knee trying to do too much last week. I even had to stay home from church Sunday. So I am taking it easy and will continue decorating when I feel better. That is another good reason to start decorating early. Thank you as always for this fun video. Love in Christ.

    • @gracefulliving_
      @gracefulliving_  Před 2 lety

      Oh, Donna, I am so sorry you hurt yourself. I was a little worried you were doing too much, but you sounded like you were having a great time doing it all. Please be sure to take time getting back at it and maybe consider not doing so much at a time. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Have a blessed day.

    Good evening Deena! What a beautiful ribbon with handwritten scripture on your entryway garland! I love the movement of twinkle lights and use them on two of my Christmas trees! I have a small collection of bottle brush trees that seems to grow every year! Lol. And, I agree with you that our decor in our homes is the story of what our interests are and what we like. May God bless you as you share more wonderful ideas for the Christmas season! 💕🎄

      Hello Kathy. Thank you so very much. I am too. Something different for me for sure. Ugh! I really need to stop putting them in my cart. I had a ton in my cart the other day, all the while telling Ronnie just how much I NEEEDED them. I did leave them behind and was so glad the next day when I pulled mine out and Jeremiah found the need to count them all. Lol. Yeah, I don’t NEED another one. Lol. Yes! Our own little story for sure. Have a wonderful day.

    First, what a great reminder of sharing our time with others. Such a good reminder! Your entry is so beautiful. I really like how you do the book pages, I will be trying this. Your bottle brush trees are so pretty and the way you grouped them looked great. I bought the flocked garland from Walmart last year and thought it was so pretty, the way you hung it from the wall decor really is a striking look with the ribbon scroll. What a statement piece. See you Friday :-)

    • @gracefulliving_
      @gracefulliving_  Před 2 lety

      Awww, thank you, Jan. I am loving the book pages too. Something a little different is always nice. Oh, I love that you are going to try it too. I think it would be so neat with smaller Christmas cards tucked in. It is so pretty for the cost. I was so surprised. I wish I would have purchased more. Awww, thank you. I appreciate you so much. Have a wonderful evening.

    Bonjour ma chère. You have done a wonderful creation there in your "entrée" (entrance), it is lovely and welcoming. A story : the other day, I was all wrap in making projects in preparation for my Christmas decor, my friend rang at the door. Of course, I was not too thrilled to be disturb with my dining room table full of scissors, tape, wire, ribbon, etc.. When I opened the door, here was my girlfriend holding 2 cups of coffee and she said all simle : " Bonjour mon amie, I thought that you might need a little break this afternoon " - Of course, it made me smile and my heart was warm that she did think of me !!! (Grumpy Rosy had a little lesson right there, I can tell you that : Enjoy the present moment ! On that note, I am wishing you a nice, nice day and many thanks for this lovely morning moment with you and your great decor. 🧁
