NEW HOUSE CHRISTMAS CLEAN & DECORATE WITH ME 2025 :: BUDGET CHRISTMAS DECORATING IDEAS

Hey guys, welcome back to a new video. Today we are decorating for Christmas and I know it's a little bit early for some of you. I used to decorate right after Thanksgiving, but as the kids have gotten older and I just feel like life gets more and more busy, I just like to decorate a little bit earlier

because as soon as Christmas gets here, I'm like, okay, I'm overstimulated, I need the break. And so I really like to just enjoy the holiday season. This year is a little bit different. This is the first Christmas with just me and my boys. And last Christmas, I knew in my heart, I knew that was gonna be the last Christmas.

It was just a very different one, and so this one I've just been looking forward to, like, adding the magic into this home, feeling that and enjoying those times with my kids. And so I'm really excited. I'm looking forward to adding a tree in here,

adding a bunch of Christmas decor, just like the warm coziness. I have windows open today. It's feeling good. It's just gonna be a good year, a good Christmas. It'll be like a nice way to kind of wrap up this whirlwind of a year and start the next year. So let's get into it.

🎵 Music 🎵

Okay, so we're gonna start out with a simmer pot, perfect for getting into the Christmas winter spirit. I love using a little mini slow cooker because it just goes low and slow and you don't have it over boil over on the stove as much. And then with simmer pots, this is going to smell your house up beautifully. You can use it day after day, just turn it off at night, refill with water the next

day and keep going. And you can really customize this to whatever scent you like, whatever sounds good to you. So I'm going to use an apple. This one's on its last legs. So I'm just going to slice this up. This is a great way to actually use up fruit. Maybe nobody wants to eat, maybe it's like a bruised apple or an orange that's kind of on its last leg. Whatever it is, it's just a great way

because then you get to still use it. You can still enjoy the smell but like it's brown inside a little bit but it still smells good. Add the apple. I also love to add in cinnamon sticks. This is the best when you can find them from the dollar store. I love cranberries for the holidays so we're gonna add a little bit of cranberries. I don't know if cranberries really add much to the scent but they definitely add to the look of your summer pot if nothing else. And then I

can just freeze them and keep them for the holidays. We're also gonna add in some cloves, just a splash of vanilla extract. And then I'm also gonna put in a little bit of rosemary. Rosemary is one of my favorite spices, especially with like mashed potatoes and like all the kind of seasonal dishes.

And then we're just gonna go ahead and add in some water. Fill it up to the top. And then if you're doing this on the stove, just turn it on the lowest setting so it kind of simmers all day or you can plug it in. I actually for these I like to turn it on high if I'm home or low if I'm leaving so at least to get it started I'm gonna turn it on high but it'll just kind of go all day long and

it's so pretty and it's gonna start smelling really good. I

love this oversized lint roller. It works so so well to get all of the pet hair off the couch and actually just to say I've been loving this couch too. We got it when we first moved in and it has been the most comfortable couch ever. We just love hanging out on here. I've actually been so busy with a ton of house projects and I'm going to be busy this coming week with even more house projects because there's just so much to do when you're getting

Settled into a new home, but anyway, okay, so I'm going to be cleaning up obviously before decorating for the season This is what I do every single time I decorate I take everything off the shelves because I'm going to be decorating anyway, and I wipe them down I usually dry dust with this reusable duster And then I will use a spray or my eclos to go ahead and just wet dust. If you decorate every season like this, make sure to take just a few minutes and clean your space off because it is not going to be easier

than this when you have nothing on your shelves. So I always take advantage even if I'm not feeling like dusting, which I'm almost never feeling like dusting, but it really just makes the biggest difference. but anyway speaking of house projects, i really feel like our home is coming together so well. like even though i still have to do things to the boys bedrooms, i still need to do a lot of different things around the house. like it is really functioning well already. i did my pantry a while ago, we have furniture in all the rooms now. i think i don't think we're missing really anything big like that now but it's just been such a peaceful home and I've just we've loved living

here Okay, this is random, but for my birthday, I got a hydro drug and I've been loving it honestly because it's spill proof. So it's been my new favorite. I've been using it all the time. And just a reminder for the day, if you're not getting your water in, here's your quick little reminder to fill up a cup, fill up your tumbler, fill up your water bottle,

and get your water in because I feel like we always all need that reminder. Also, if you're someone who notices a lot of things right off the bat, I actually got a new, new to me, table. I just could not get the old one to not be wobbly. My sister and I tried to work at it for a while and it just kept always getting really wobbly and because the boys and I eat here every single day, this is a little bit nicer

because it's actually six inches bigger and so I'm going to be painting it so that it kind of matches the space a little bit better but I just love it it's been so great

and I was super happy to find it at the thrift store Ain't nobody taking me here and now It's my time to ride out It's my time, it's my time It's my time to ride out It's your time, it's your time

Lo and behold, you had your to go along the top of the kitchen

cabinets. I just think it'll be so pretty if I'm able to like do any DIYs in the kitchen. Like I'm just not even thinking about DIYs and not asking to land load or anything right now until the new year just because I know we're getting into the busy season. I'm just not even going to have time to do that anyway and so I'm not even like tackling that or thinking about it.

But I was just thinking it'll look so pretty if I can do that I just I have a lot of ideas. This is also a garland that I got from Walmart like a few years ago and I like it because garland is surprisingly so expensive and this stuff I want to say it was like maybe it was $20 for a six-foot section it might have been 15 I don't remember but I remember a lot of the garlands that I've looked at, it's like 60 to $80 a section for a really nice looking garland.

Otherwise they look really fake. But this one is nice because you have like three different types. I don't know exactly all the types. I can't name them, but it looks good. And it's nice and full.

Alrighty, it's a new day. I woke up to the Christmas tree twinkling, which is a great way to wake up, and it just feels good. It was so incredibly cold and windy last night. I don't know if I'll say cold, it was very chilly, and it was very windy so anyway today we're gonna decorate everything I

got a few little things up yesterday obviously but we're gonna do like the bulk of the decorating today and then I already have my little simmer pot turned back on you guys have to try this recipe I typically just kind of make them up whatever I kind of whatever sounds good this one is 10 out of 10 12 out of 10 it is so good it's's so, so good. Luke smelled it yesterday and he was like,

oh, that smells amazing. So it's a super good one. Make this recipe for sure. Okay, before we get into decorating, I want to do two things. I want to prep something for my hot cocoa bar

that we're going to be doing today. And then also I have loom towels. The new Christmas launch is launching and I'm so excited because these are so, so cute. I don't even have like a sneak peek. I just barely peeked a little bit as I opened the box to see what they were. They're so good and I think I'm gonna be doing a giveaway.

So stay tuned for that. Okay, our quick little bloom towel haul for the Christmas season. Let's do a giveaway. I might do one here and I might do one over on Instagram. So I think here we're gonna do a giveaway for two Bloom Towels.

So all you have to do is go ahead and comment your favorite. I love when they do like big collections like this for the season and Christmas is my favorite. So this is perfect. All right, as I'm debugging these, I wanna go over why I love Bloom Towels.

I've been using Bloom Towels, I wanna say since either 2019 or 2020. I just don't remember fully, but I know that I think I started using them when it was like their second collection maybe? That's what they told me. They were like, you've been using our towels for since like the beginning pretty much.

They are so big and they are so absorbent. They have like a really tight knit waffle weave. They don't have that sticky microfiber feeling, you know what I'm talking about? That's awful, I hate that. And these towels do not have that.

Also, they last forever. Literally I have like my first towel I ever, ever got. I use it all the time and I still have it and it works perfectly. The one that I have on my dishwasher currently. How cute is this?

It was from their fall launch. Oh yeah, double sided, okay. Cute, cute prints. They have a huge selection on their website but they also have these new launches. They also have this little hook so you can actually

hang it if you have little hooks or knobs on your cabinets. You can hang it like that. And that's actually my favorite way to do it because then you get to see both sides. That's my favorite. I am very exclusive to only using bloom towels in the

kitchen. And let me tell you, like, they're so worth it. I know I say the bloom towels are absorbent all the time, but I forget how non-absorbent so many other towels are. These are king. They're queen, they're amazing. All right, so let's go through. We are just going to number them one through nine.

Tell me your favorite. So you have like a sweater print, actually kind of on both sides, and like stitching print. Very traditional Christmas colors, red, white, and green. And then this almost is like very similar to that other print.

But then look, this almost reminds me of like an ugly Christmas sweater. So cute, but not ugly, a cute Christmas sweater. And then this one has again, kind of that same type of stitching, but with green and white. And then on the inside,

you have that same type of stitching, but in a little Christmas tree pattern. Isn't that so cute? So I feel like these three very much go together. They're very coordinating on to the next one. This is so cute You have all these cute little presents and then look what the other side is. It's these cute little pinstripes with bows How fun this is like so girly so playful. I think that's so fun

Especially if you have little girls or little kids I do have a code that will work for all of these balloon towels for their Christmas launch but also just all the towels on the website. I think the code is just Amanda but I will have it linked down below and that will give you 15% off your entire order. So this one right here, very fun and whimsical. You have like the trees and then on the other side you just have light green, dark green, pink, and white. Vlad, how cute. I love this one. All right, now this guy has bows on one side.

I feel like bows have been so in for a couple years now. And then on the other side, you have this fun little kind of holiday, playful stripe. And then, oh, this one's so cute too. On one side, you have this pretty, pretty green background with like white prints

of all different kinds of Christmas things. You have like Santa, a cute rocking horse, you have snowflake, oh my gosh, a present, mistletoe, Christmas tree, stocking. And then on the backside you have more playful, it says joy to the world with a wreath.

And then this one totally reminds me of a simmer pot. How fun is this? So on one side you have cinnamon sticks, that little star anise, and then orange, like sliced oranges. Is that not just like a simmer pot and a cloth?

On the other side you have that kind of same playful colors as this one, like with the stripes, except in checkers. So, super cute. Let me know, comment below, which one is your favorite,

and I'll be picking two of you to send you some towels ♪ Together, together, together, you know you're done. ♪

Okay, so for this, I'm gonna make my own little hot cocoa bar toppers. They are gonna have to stay in the freezer until you're ready to use them, but I think it'll be really fun. I don't usually keep ready whip or like whipped cream

on hand because when I have it on hand, the kids just think, oh my gosh, so fun. And it goes away really quickly. Also, it's just like not good for you anyway. So it's like an indulgent thing, but I like to have hot cocoa toppers,

but they cost a lot, right? So I saw this on Instagram, I think the other day, and I thought this was so genius. So we're gonna take some parchment paper and just laying that on a flat, hard surface. And then I just got the extra creamy whipped cream.

And basically you're just going to create little circles like hot cocoa toppers. So we're gonna make them like roughly the size of a mug or a little bit smaller. Then I just got some red sprinkles. You could also do broken up candy canes, even like mini chocolate chips, really whatever. We're just gonna sprinkle them on to make them kind of fun and festive.

And then all we're gonna do with this is just pop this in the freezer and then once it's all frozen I might either, I'll probably end up just actually putting a top of parchment paper on top, and then cutting them into their own squares, and then keeping them in a Ziploc bag in the freezer. So that's kind of my plan, but that's fun.

So we'll see how they turn out once they're frozen. I have not unpacked this, decluttered anything since moving from my previous home so I do know that I have more than I'll need in this home so anything extra I have maybe do a little decorating for someone local here in the area or I'll give some to my sisters or something but I'm excited to pull it out and see kind of what I'm dealing with this year, see how it fits in the new

space and a new home and then kind of go from there. So let's start pulling out the magic. Do you remember when I DIY'd these last year? I love these. These were actually just black houses and I painted them this nutmeg color and then I actually just doodled on them with like a white paint marker.

I just think they turned out so cute. Oh, that's the back. So I'll see if I can link that video up here or also down in the description, but I just, I did a bunch of these and I'm excited to put them up in this house.

So as I'm going today,

I think I'm going to anything that I know I don't want to keep, I'm just going to put it into a separate area. I'm realizing I don't have any black Christmas decor anymore, so I think I'm not going to keep this black tree because I obviously have plenty. This one, I'm not sure just because it's really tall and I don't know if it'll fit the scale of this home.

So, we'll see. I might put this in the get rid of and then we'll see where we go with it. I don't think I've ever shared a Christmas decorate video without sharing this story like every single year I do this and I think it's just because I think it's so important to remember the past so that you can always be thankful for where you're at now. Wow, that is truer than ever right now in my life but I'm actually meaning to talk about home decor, specifically holiday decor. In the past I've talked about how when I was

kind of first starting out as an adult, we just did not have much. Like, I did not have any home decor really at all, and I really just remember going to my friends' homes and thinking, wow, this is so warm and cozy, and this is so inviting,

and I did not have any of that at my home. And so it was always something that I really wished for all the time. And now that a lot of time has passed, I've gotten a bit older and I've accumulated more things over the years. I just, I feel that sense of gratefulness

every single time I pull out my decor, especially when it's seasonal decor, because that's really the time when you're kind of wanting to make your home really extra cozy and just welcoming, especially for the kids and everything. And so I just feel that sense of gratefulness

every single year. And I think that's also why I thrift and love to share a lot of budget decorating ideas because I just love to offer different options no matter what place of life that you're in, because I've definitely been in all the different stages. So anyway, if you're in that beginning stage or you just don't have a lot of home decor and that's something that's important to you, I do just want to encourage you that that will come and also just let you know there are tons of ways to decorate on a low budget as well.

And just to let you know I am going to be including another giveaway in this

video so I'll share that in just a minute. I I swore I had some more Christmas ones, like prints.

These are just digital downloads that I order from Etsy or I get on Amazon or wherever and then I print them out. But I can't find my Christmas ones so either I've stored them somewhere else. I don't find my Christmas ones, so either I stored them somewhere else. I don't have a lot of for the holiday season right now is foliage. So I love greenery and just things like that because it brings a lot of life to the space

and a lot of interest and texture. I don't have a ton right now. I don't know if I got rid of it or if I just didn't ever have a ton. I think I decorated my sister's house last Christmas. Maybe I brought some of the stuff over there. I just don't remember right now but that's something that I would love to add a little more of here and there so I'll kind of be keeping my

eye out over the season and that's a lot that and I just kind of collect things over time. ♪

♪ ♪ ♪

Gather round the logs and start a fire It's cold and crisp and wrapped in wire Now I will also say that most of my decor is

stuff that I've had from previous years and you'll also notice that some of my decor that I'm decorating for Christmas with is not actual Christmas decor so that's another tip is don't feel like everything that you pull out has to be for Christmas you can definitely use your everyday home decor items to do this. Maybe the only new thing that I got this year is that little nativity frame.

I found it from Walmart for like around $10, and I just thought it was so simple and pretty. But I will link my previous years of Christmas decorating so that you can see kind of where things have been added in and find out where things are from, or you're always welcome to ask in the comments if there's something that you're interested in, and maybe the stores might have them,

unless if, of course, they were thrifted. But I did wanna go ahead and share that giveaway with you guys, so I am going to be choosing two of you to win a $50 gift card or $50 cash. This is open internationally,

so no matter where you live, you can go ahead and enter. And I like to keep things very simple, so all you have to do to enter is make sure that you're subscribed to my channel, of course, because this is a subscriber giveaway, and then make sure to comment on this video and last week's video. So I will have all the information for that

down in the description box. And then also, if you want an additional entry, you can go ahead and share this video on your social media account and then just come back here to leave an additional comment and let me know that you shared it and that will give you another entry. So totally optional on that one but it just gives you a little better chance but anyway I'll have all that

information down below and good luck and thank you guys so much for being here

with me every year. I'm just so grateful for you.

Okay I wanted to take a second and touch on affordable decor options because I've been talking about that a bit today. So this is something that really goes for all year round, not specifically just Christmas. But some of my favorite ways to decorate very affordably is one by thrifting. You can find so much at the thrift store and then you can DIY those thrift finds and really customize them to your color palette and your style. I also love adding, I also love changing out your kitchen towels like I just did.

That makes a big difference and I love that it's also functional. So even though you have a pretty towel in the kitchen, it adds a lot for the season. It's not something that you're having to kind of clean or cook around. It's something that actually is very functional but looks really pretty. The next thing is I love to get a lot of frames from the thrift store and get digital downloads or prints on Amazon and you can just change those out so affordably for the seasons. And then one of my last favorite super affordable decor options is to get pillow inserts once and then you just

buy different pillow covers. You can find them all over but I love to get them from Amazon because they're just a couple of dollars each and then you just continue to change those out and reuse them. It doesn't take up a lot of space to store them and they're so much more affordable than buying new pillows each season. so This is actually where I'm planning on doing the hot cocoa bar this year because I don't want to clutter up the kitchen and just make it feel really busy when we'll be doing more cooking and baking and things like that in the holiday season. So I'm gonna clear this off a little bit

and then we'll revisit this area with the hot cocoa bar probably at the end. Okay, so things are coming together in here and I'm loving it. One thing that I wanted to share, and I think I shared this last year too, is anytime you're keeping, I mean around Christmas time or year too is anytime you're keeping I mean around Christmas time or the holidays anytime you're keeping things that really don't go with the vibe like live green plants that's not really Christmasy you know like when you go outside especially if you live up north it's like everything is dead it's in it's like chilly phase first I don't

have room in my house to find space for like these two bookshelves of plants or these two art shelves of plants. So I'm not going to find a new spot for them. Plus, this is just like part of the vibe in this room, but I do want to make them not feel like, what's that doing there? So, you get ribbon.

You can reuse this every year. Otherwise, like this was, I think $2.50 for 15 feet, so it's very affordable. But all you're gonna do is put bows on things, which I know, I don't know, if you like it, you like it, if you don't, you don't, you know how to do it.

But I really like it. At least the last few years, I've really liked the look of like the velvet, deep red bows. I feel like this is looking way more ready, but in person it's more of like a deep red. It's not that red. Anyway, I'm just gonna put some pretty bows and I'm gonna do it on both of the shelves

and I'm gonna do it to match. So I'm not the best at tying bows so I'm gonna give myself a lot of extra room with cutting these. What I'm gonna do is actually just tie it right around this edge.

If you don't have something thin like this to tie it around, then you can get little twist ties and tie it around that way. You can hot glue something to whatever surface. Hot glue typically will come off of pretty much anything. There's just a lot of ways. You can even just like use tape.

So there's a lot of ways to attach it. I like doing this cause then I don't feel like I have to change up all my existing decor or like styled things in a space just to make it feel like Christmas. Also this could give you some confidence because you can see I'm not doing this very gracefully but in the end I do have faith that it'll actually turn out well. ?

?

? One in doubt, use a jar or a vessel, whatever you have, and add in some greenery. That's such a great filler. It takes not a whole lot and it makes a big impact. Also, at this point, as I'm just kind of moving things around, I'm just realizing like most of my decor has been thrifted over time, which I love a curated space.

So even though everything is thrifted, like all the pieces are exactly kind of what I love and I feel like that's why I continue to just kind of rotate them around my home which I guess I also just want to mention on that rotating your decor around your home is another great and affordable way to get a new feel in your space without having to go out and buy

new decor. All year, just a year then. Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. It's that magic season. Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. I can feel it. I can feel it. We've got the snowflakes on our tongue.

So it is day three. I ended up just having fun. Luke and I went to dinner last night, and so I just ended up not finishing things up, but that's fine. Just wanted to go ahead and decorate a few other areas around the house today,

kind of finish just like the last little bit of stuff, and then now we're gonna go ahead and focus on the hot cocoa bar. So I got the cutest little stocking holder, which is perfect, because it kind of simplifies the shelving area,

like the TV center area, and it just puts the stockings right next to the Christmas tree. I did spray paint it gold just because I felt like that would kind of match and not be as stark as the, or not as much of a contrast with the wall as the black was. And then I just have like some pillow covers,

a few blankets, things like that. And then a few little here and there pieces that I just kind of put in the kitchen and around the house. But now, let's go ahead and work on the hot cocoa bar. This is one of my favorite things to do each Christmas and one of my kids, probably my kids' very favorite thing

that I do each Christmas. And we usually have it up for about two months and it's just fun. It just is like a tradition that we've had for several years. So we're gonna go ahead and do it again this year.

And I've like played around and I've changed things up over the years. We're gonna start with a little sleigh that I got from Target last year. We'll assemble it in the dining room in just a minute, but I'm gonna first go ahead and like fill up these containers and I always get questions about these, but like this one is not so cute. This one is from TJ Maxx actually and like all of these are also from TJ Maxx

and I like them because they're very sturdy but really pretty and then also I got this little swivel lid spice jar this year to put sprinkles in because I've kind of struggled with sprinkles in the past and I think that's going to be good. And then my one DIY that I wanted to do is I got these little salt and pepper shakers. I spray painted them with a nutmeg color to give them kind of like that gingerbread look and then I actually just have a little paint marker so I'm gonna take just a second to just

doodle on them and make them kind of look like a gingerbread and then I think I'm gonna put like cinnamon and maybe powdered sugar or something in here just for a little fun like dusting on their hot cocoa's because I think cinnamon sounds so good. Alright, let me know in the comments what exactly would be in your hot cocoa bar and do you make a hot cocoa bar? I've been doing this for probably like 7 years maybe and my kids love it so much but another

thing that I wanted to mention is if you don't have counter space for this, a hot cocoa bar does not need to be a big display. It can actually even just be all of your hot cocoa items, your specialty toppings for the season. Put them in a basket, put them above the fridge, put them in a cabinet. Like you really just don't have to have counter space

to do a hot cocoa bar. And then also you can do what I'm doing and actually putting it in a different room. So mine is going in my dining room because I just want to keep the kitchen counters a little bit more clear. So just have fun with it, but in our hot cocoa bar, I have two hot cocoa mixes. One is white chocolate and one is like a double chocolate

or something like that. The kids love them. And then I also just put some peppermints, marshmallows, chocolates, some sprinkles, just kind of play around with it and it's fun to add different toppings.

your face overwhelming, so I love it so much. And I'm just so thankful and happy to bring in the magic this year for the boys and myself. And I just feel like this Christmas is going to be a really amazing one, and I really hope it's the same for you in your home.

So I'm gonna finish showing you a little bit around the house and showing you how everything turned out but I hope you really enjoyed this video today. Okay, quick reminder, go ahead and enter those two different giveaways that I have. One for the bloom towels and the other for the gift card slash cash. That can of course be used for whatever you want but it can also be used to kind of add to your own Christmas decor if you found something recently that you loved or you're in the season of needing to kind of add to your collection. But I really hope you guys enjoyed hanging out
