hello and welcome to another homem
0:03
making video my name is heaven and today
0:05
we are doing some Christmas home decor I
0:08
am getting ready to begin my Christmas
0:10
clean and decorate with me series and
0:12
today we're going to be starting with my
0:15
kitchen so I have a tear tray Decor
0:19
coffee bar hot cocoa bar some Garland
0:22
and a few other pieces of Christmas
0:24
decor inspiration for you guys so if you
0:27
are ready to get into the holidays with
0:30
me and you need some Christmas home
0:32
decor inspiration then continue watching
0:35
because I have got you covered so the
0:37
first thing I'm doing is fluffing out my
0:39
Garland that's going to be going around
0:41
my kitchen window this is going to be
0:43
pretty much like the backdrop or the
0:45
main attraction of my kitchen so
0:47
fluffing it out definitely takes a
0:48
little bit of time so I went ahead and
0:50
spare this part up just to spare you
0:53
guys so once I got it all fluffed out I
0:55
went ahead and started putting it up on
0:56
the window so that once I got it on the
0:58
window I can fluff it out a little bit
1:00
more to get it exactly how I wanted it
1:02
to look I wasn't sure how long it was
1:06
going to be because I didn't measure it
1:08
beforehand so make sure you measure your
1:10
window before you purchase your Garland
1:12
to save you guys a bit of a headache so
1:14
I was a few inches too short with this
1:17
one but I got it to work out anyway and
1:19
I didn't want to put any Clips or nails
1:21
or hooks or anything like that on my
1:23
paint so I went ahead and just like put
1:25
it behind the blind or behind the
1:29
curtain Veil and it stayed up there
1:31
pretty well just by tucking the corners
1:33
behind there so once I got that up I
1:35
went ahead and added a b Merry Christmas
1:38
sign that I picked up from Walmart if
1:40
you guys haven't checked out my
1:41
Christmas decor haul definitely check
1:43
that out you guys can see where I got
1:45
all of these pieces from their prices
1:48
the stores and all of that good stuff so
1:50
I'm also adding another lit Garland this
1:54
one is a little bit more thin and I'm
1:56
just going to be putting this one across
1:57
the bottom of my window sill it has some
1:59
p pine cones some red berries and this
2:02
one was to add a little bit more color
2:04
because the other Garland was just white
2:06
lights with no berries no pie and Cones
2:08
no ornaments or anything so this one
2:10
here just added a little bit more color
2:13
so just putting that one across the
2:14
bottom of my window sill with a few of
2:16
the Christmas Village bottle brush
2:19
Christmas trees that just gave a little
2:22
bit of a you know winter theme decor
2:25
here in the kitchen next I am also
2:28
adding another Merry Christmas sign that
2:31
matches the one I put above the window
2:34
it has like all of the different colored
2:36
multicolored string lights it says make
2:38
it merry just like the one above the
2:40
window so to just tie those in together
2:43
as like a matching set I went ahead and
2:45
put this one on the counter and adding
2:48
more of those Christmas Village flocked
2:50
Christmas tree bottle brushes and
2:52
putting those on the bottom shelves of
2:55
my kitchen and then just adding a couple
2:58
of red and white Christmas mugs that
3:01
we're going to be using for our cocoa
3:03
and our coffee just so that we can
3:05
easily grab them right off the shelf and
3:07
then once we're done we'll just clean
3:09
them and then put them back on the Shelf
3:10
so that not only is it decorative but
3:12
it's also practical because we're going
3:15
to be using them all season long next is
3:17
the most adorable gingerbread peppermint
3:20
candy jar canister that I picked up for
3:23
only $5 at Walmart and it's super
3:25
adorable as well as this peppermint wax
3:28
warmer you just put a little tea like
3:31
candle in the inside of it and then put
3:33
some wax melts on it I'm using this
3:35
Christmas morning one that smells oh my
3:37
goodness so delicious you guys have to
3:39
try this scent it smells so good and
3:42
fragrance I love it it just smells up
3:44
the whole house now for the top corners
3:47
of my cabinets I am just using these
3:51
burlap potted flocked mini Christmas
3:54
trees with red berries and it has like a
3:57
little yellow like paper ribbon type TI
3:59
around it so that it's not so bare up
4:02
there and to add a little bit more of
4:03
those red berries just like the ones
4:05
that are across the bottom of the window
4:07
sill and then I'm going to be using an
4:08
all wet tear tray for a little bit more
4:11
Decor so I did have to put it together I
4:13
ordered it from Amazon but that took a
4:15
couple of minutes as you guys can see
4:17
and originally my plan was to use this
4:20
teered tray for my cocoa in coffee bar
4:25
and just set the jars like inside of the
4:27
tray but the tear tray was a little bit
4:29
too small and the Mason jar is a little
4:31
bit too large so I decided to put that
4:33
on the other side of the counter and opt
4:35
in for this practical cake dish because
4:37
I know I'm going to be using this cake
4:39
dish for the holidays making cakes for
4:41
Thanksgiving and Christmas so when I
4:43
just use it for Decor that way it can be
4:47
used as a two in-one type of thing you
4:49
know once I need it for the cakes I can
4:51
just put the canisters down onto the
4:53
counter and then put the cake on top of
4:56
the cake dish so aside from the
4:57
traditional red and white color theme
5:00
we're going for I also added a little
5:02
bit of those tiny wooden Decor pieces in
5:05
some twine to just like tie a little bit
5:08
of Decor around the jars to make it a
5:10
little bit more Merry and then I'm doing
5:12
the same thing for the tear tray because
5:14
I didn't put the Mason dryers on here
5:16
I'm really just going to be decorating
5:17
it with the tiny little wooden pieces
5:19
that I picked up like a whole set from
5:21
Amazon for like $12 and I kind of wish
5:24
that instead I just went to the store
5:25
and picked out some pieces that I like
5:27
but this will do as well it still turned
5:29
out to be super adorable but as you can
5:31
see like I felt like they were just a
5:33
little bit too flimsy either way I like
5:35
the way it did turn out just more of
5:37
those Christmas tree bottle brushes some
5:41
Garland beads some cocoa bar signs you
5:44
know just all of the warm and cozy feels
5:47
for Christmas and then you guys can see
5:49
I also put a little mini potted
5:52
Christmas tree in the back with a few
5:54
flocked pine cones as well so here back
5:57
to the ecoo and coffee setup I added a
6:01
little bit more of that twine with the
6:05
like cocoa and coffee mug wooden pieces
6:07
to just tie around the mason jars I only
6:11
had one originally but I was like why
6:13
did I just do all three of them because
6:15
I didn't like the way it turned out so I
6:17
went ahead and you know put those up
6:19
there on the cake dish with a couple of
6:21
little blue snowflakes and then stuck
6:24
these here rubber wooden spatulas inside
6:27
of my you utensil holder one of them
6:31
says Let It Snow one of them says Merry
6:33
Christmas I love my little utensils so
6:36
I'm not ready to part ways with them for
6:37
the holiday season I want to use them to
6:39
cook all of my holiday meals but to make
6:41
it look a little more festive I went
6:43
ahead and purchased these here little
6:45
spatulas that are super adorable and
6:48
then of course a merry and bride
6:50
Christmas towel set you got to have a
6:52
kitchen towel set for the holiday season
6:54
it's like the easiest thing to add to
6:56
the you know kitchen to decorate for the
6:58
holiday so here is what it's looking
7:01
like so far with the lights and then
7:05
without the lights as well all right
7:08
moving right along to try and keep it
7:10
simple not going too overboard just
7:12
making sure I have just the right amount
7:14
of Decor you know without making it look
7:16
just too overwhelming I'm now just going
7:19
to be putting another tiar tray an all
7:23
red one on my all white kitchen table
7:26
and this one's going to be practical as
7:27
well so the plan here is to use this one
7:30
just to put some little Christmas treats
7:32
on it I have some gingerbread cookies
7:35
some Christmas tree cakes some Christmas
7:37
tree brownies and then at the top we're
7:40
just going to be adding like our salt
7:41
and pepper shakers some coasters for our
7:43
drinks and probably like a little napkin
7:46
holder you know like I said just to keep
7:47
it nice and practical so that we can
7:49
actually use it because we do eat at
7:51
this table every single night and every
7:53
morning as well those Christmas treats
7:55
go really good with a cup of coffee just
7:58
dip it in there oh my goodness it's
8:00
definitely a cuy pleasure but I thought
8:02
that this was really cute and practical
8:04
for the holidays and not going overboard
8:07
so now that that is out the way back to
8:10
the cocoa and coffee bar I am just going
8:12
to grind up some coffee beans and then I
8:14
am also going to be putting some of
8:16
these Mini Vanilla jet puffed
8:19
marshmallows and some of these Belgian
8:22
chocolate hot cocoa spoons some
8:24
Hershey's chocolate mint flavored candy
8:26
canes and then the traditional
8:29
peppermint candy canes and some hot
8:32
cocoa mix all inside of the mason jars
8:34
and around my little hot cocoa and
8:36
coffee bar so now that the coffee has
8:38
grinded up I am just pouring those
8:41
coffee grounds inside of one of the red
8:43
mason jars we're going to do one red
8:46
mason jar for coffee one red mason jar
8:50
for cocoa and then of course the
8:52
marshmallows are going to go inside of
8:54
the white mason jar so here that's what
8:58
I'm doing just taking it out of the
9:00
original canisters and putting inside of
9:04
the Mason DRS I think that these Mason
9:05
dry are 32 oz so it should get me
9:09
through a good week or so maybe a little
9:12
less as far as the coffee goes cuz we
9:14
drink coffee every single day but the
9:16
cocoa will last quite some times because
9:18
we just add a few tablespoons of that
9:21
and then same for the marshmallows that
9:22
should last quite a while too and then
9:24
we can always you know refill it as we
9:26
go every Sunday when I do my little
9:28
Sunday reset I'll just go back and
9:30
refill the mason jars as needed so here
9:32
I'm just adding some chalk stickers to
9:36
the jars so that I can write on them
9:38
with like a white chalk marker to you
9:42
know just label it coffee cocoa and
9:44
marshmallows for my husband I'm more
9:46
than likely going to remember plus if I
9:48
open it and it has marshmallows inside
9:50
of the cocoa I know it's not coffee but
9:53
you know just to help my husband out I'm
9:54
going put some signs on there so that he
9:56
knows what's what and then also put some
9:58
of these chocolate mint spoons and candy
10:01
canes inside of a clear mason jar as
10:04
well so that we can add a little bit of
10:06
flavor in Decor to our cocoa and coffee
10:09
mugs in the morning so here again is
10:12
what it is looking like just giving you
10:14

10:16

10:18
