Welcome back to our channel.
I feel like today really needed an intro and as I was editing the video,
we didn't have one, but I was like,
we need to explain what's going on because if you don't follow us on Instagram,
then this video won't make as much sense to you.
Like why am I making my husband decorate our dining table?
So first of all,
if you have Instagram and you're not following along over there,
we are way more active on Instagram than we are on YouTube.
So jump over there to Instagram.
Here is my Instagram handle and I will have it linked below too.
So it's just an easy click. Um, go do that before you start this video.
So the backstory of this is back in October we were sitting here eating dinner
as a family and Thomas made the comment that he's like, you know,
I feel like I could do this.
Like I could decorate this table and it would look so good.
And so I offered him to decorate it for Christmas. I'm like,
let's see how good your decorating skills are. So we went to Instagram,
everybody did a poll. Most people didn't think it was going to turn out so good.
So you guys will be the judge. Let us know in the comments what you think.
You're obviously going to see my reaction here at the end. Um, but yeah,
that's the backstory. Let's jump into the video.
Guys, I don't have any idea what I'm doing right now.
Maybe it's cause I'm at Walmart,
but this is so much more overwhelming than I thought it was going to be.
I just set up my camera to walk across this field to break a branch off a pine
tree and I went to like examine the clip and there was a stick in the way the
whole time.
So I wasted like 12 minutes setting up my phone on like a branch.
This is not going very well for me today.
Dude, I would have rather use that little pine tree right there.
What pine tree freaking tree we have right here.
Okay.
All I know is Thomas has been looking everywhere in our city for a pine tree.
I feel like you're not liking your idea.
Dude, well I had slim pickings at Walmart.
You should have gone somewhere else.
Yeah, I should have. I should have wanted Holly.
I don't want to look at what you're doing now. So I don't know.
I literally don't even have a clue. I don't even have, I just,
I don't know. I got random pieces. These look dope.
Okay. I thought that this was going to be so easy,
but I don't really want to watch this. So you gotta like,
you gotta set it up and do it yourself.
Dude. I literally, okay.
Will this stay in my shirt? Oh my gosh.
Okay.
We're trying to record like some kind of voiceover together because I wanted to
know,
I wanted to know what was going on in his head as he was decorating because he
was talking under his breath.
I was kind of hoping you would like be explaining what you were doing,
but you didn't.
Well, first of all, I had no idea what I was doing.
And this runner I had to go and find in the house because I bought a,
I thought what I thought was a table runner off Amazon and turns out it was a
blanket. So I had to, I had to mix that real quick.
I put the little wood tree by the lantern. Cause I was like, all right,
I don't want it to look like a spike.
Like if I put the lantern and then spaced in the wood tree and then spaced in
the, what is that thing that dangles in your food?
Oh, like the pine needle branches or something.
So I just felt like they needed to be a little bit closer.
Okay. I like that mini trees.
While he was doing this, I heard him say that he needed some Garland somewhere.
I don't know where you found this.
I actually took it off of our range.
Oh, this is the one. Oh, I didn't even notice that that was missing.
Yeah. And then I went and snagged one of your Merry Christmas signs from your
shop. And I felt like there needed to be something else.
So I added some more red to it and I went and saw those balls off your Christmas
tree.
Okay. That's actually,
I was going to say that was really clever because you added red and then little
pieces of red. I don't know if you noticed that,
but like that really helped the sign tying to this whole area.
And even inside of the pine tree thing that I did,
I added some of those little berries that I, which I also took off your tree.
So you're missing some things.
So technically I didn't go over budget because I still only spent like 46 bucks.
There you go. You just found stuff around the house. That's kind of what I do.
I feel like I'm up for hire. So if you guys want me to come do your table,
landscaping, call me.
I just want to look on the count of three. One, two,
wait, wait. Okay. Go.
Oh my gosh. Thomas. That is super impressive. Don't lie.
Yeah. That's super impressive. Oh my gosh. I'm actually not joking at all.
I will never, I will never. The amount of stress.
Yeah. The amount of stress that this put on me.
I would never do this again. Not in a million years.
Oh, did you see that? Oh wait, hold on.
Have you done like a after picture or video? Yeah, I did. Okay.
This is so cute. This is all I knew. You,
all you had told me is you wanted to do something with like little pine trees.
It's true. But I had no, I didn't know like where you were going with that.
You see, I use the Christmas card. It doesn't count towards the budget.
You were smart to use real pine.
This is funny though, because in, okay, hold up. It was about a month ago.
We were sitting here at dinner and Thomas had the idea. I'm going to,
I could do this. I'm going to totally do this for Christmas.
Like I get to decorate this table.
And he specifically said I had like fall leaves that were draping out of this
exact container. And he goes,
one thing I won't do is I'm not going to have stuff draping into my dinner.
How I think it should be decorated.
I just think that's funny that the one thing you said you weren't going to do,
you did like they're draping. And I think it's so cute. I love it.
Number one,
I shouldn't be holding the camera when you speak because I'm just shaking and
laughing.
Listen, if I didn't have that, this is what I learned. Okay.
You have to have one side offset the other side. Yeah. You know what I mean?
Like if there wasn't something over there, it would just be like a little,
so yeah, like I don't know. Oh, here's the other thing.
I told you guys I could do this.
Unless you did something in the middle and it kind of spread out.
But I like this cause it fills up the whole table. Okay.
Well everybody's a critic these days. I'm sorry that it doesn't.
This was great. I am super impressed. I'm not changing anything about it.
Don't lie. I'm not even kidding. There's nothing I will change.
I 100% will let you change all that. No, I'm not changing.
You're not going to, you guys will see Christmas morning.
It's going to look the same. What would I mess with? No, I love it.
It's quite messy. I love it.
And is that a fire hazard when that starts to die? Well, when it dies,
it will be, but we got some time. Put some water in there.
That's not a bad idea, babe. Actually, I'm not going to change anything.
It's literally perfect. It's perfect the way it is.
I'm not changing anything. Dude, you're adding stuff. Listen,
if the interior designer wanted twinkle lights, he would have put them.
I think if you knew that these were around the house,
you would have used them though. You didn't know.
Listen, a fire hazard with lights probably doesn't mix.
These are like the, are you kidding? They're operated by a triple A battery.
Hey, Hey, Hey, I knocked it over. Just, I'm not doing.
I knocked it over. What am I supposed to do? There. Isn't that it? That's it.
