Everyone it's morgan yates. And today I'm bringing guys my first holiday video, which I'm so excited about for Halloween even ended
I was ordering Christmas decorations. So today in this video. I'm gonna be showing you how I am decorating my house
This video is brought to you guys by
Victoria's Secret pink their holiday line for 2018 is out and I'm so excited to show you guys
I picked up six things from their new collection and my favorite by far is this little pj set that we have going on?
It's just the most like festive plaid print. This is a very lightweight breathable material
So we just have it this long sleeve top and then there are the accompanying leggings
Or like pants I guess but they're I don't know little eggie eggie
These are so soft fuzzies the wrong word
but there's just like a
Extra soft texture going on with these sitting my roommates and I are gonna do a Christmas card and one route
We're thinking about going is like some cute little matching pj sets
So definitely will be wearing this if we go that direction
Next you'll see me wearing this a lot throughout this video as I'm decorating because it's so comfy up and wearing this all the time
And that is this little pullover like quarter zip sweat sweater sweatshirt
It says cream color and as you can see up close this is so so so so soft
I got everything here in a medium, but I did get this in a large that way it could be like super big
So, yeah, you'll see me wearing that a lot because it's very comfortable, and I wanted to be cozy while I was decorating. Thanks
I just got a pair of leggings. They're just these black leggings that downside have a white and grey stripe
Yeah, I think these are super flattering just because of all of the like cut outside details
these are really good quality thick legging cute for just lounging or working out and then
Lastly I picked up April I and a pair of their Christmas
underwear because I love Christmas undies if you guys have been watching my vlog my switch side note blog which is coming very soon every
Day of vlog is going up over on my blog channel
I'll have a link to below so you guys can subscribe
But if you might remember when my college roommates and I had a party just like our house
senior year and we all got each other like gifts under like
$10, I think it was I got everyone a pair of
Victoria Secret christmas underwear so you can go back and check that out
It's quite funny that you can tell I am feeling at the plaid print and lastly
I just picked up this bra that I thought was just a fun
Unique print and I love the band on the back of this. I just thought that was fun
comment below if you guys are decorating your house this year and if you have already done it or when you do it when you
Guys see this this is been up for a couple of weeks
so
We are a little early or a lot of great gift ideas in that there new lion is so make sure that you guys check
That out. I will have it linked below and without further ado. Let's go ahead and get into decorating my house
alright
so first up and most importantly is of course the Christmas tree we decided we were gonna put it in our little nook area of
Our living room so I very shakily moved over these bookshelves
and then
went in trying to
Assemble a Christmas tree like it's a one-person job and let me tell you it is not so speeding this up
You can't see how many times I got hit in the face with those branches
But I really recommend buying a pre lit tree if you are investing in line, and you already have one
it's just a lot easier to know your lights already on they're evenly spaced and
There's me
Rejoicing because the lights worked then it is time to fluff the tree and let me tell you I have become a tree fluffing expert
Throughout the course of this video
Be prepared for your arms, so you can get a little bit scraped up because mine did but after probably 30 minutes
This is the final result
I'm short so idea on a little stool to fluff up the top part, but I think it looks pretty good
Next I just got this burgundy tree skirt because I thought I was being so clever
And such a responsible adult remembering that I would need a tree skirt. So I did get this one. I like it super soft
I think it's good size for the tree
But you'll see in a second for our second tree that I did not remember to order a tree skirt for that tree
it's my marketing one and then I just bought a jumbo set of ornaments online and
Paying all those just sticking with like a little red gold color scheme lots of cute ornament options in there
So that is our main tree
But then I thought we should have a little skinny
Slightly shorter one in our dining room because we have this huge empty corner
And we've been meaning to get a plant to go there
you guys know if you've been keeping up with moving vlogs how much we slack on absolutely everything so
There was still no plant there and I decided that
for the holidays we might as well fill it with a Christmas tree and then deal with it in the new year and procrastinate a
Little hoarse. So this tree was not pre lit
So I'm winging that as you can see this is me trying to tell you to make sure that you test if the lights work
Before you get all of it on there, so make sure that you plug them in initially
And I got to the top of the tree and had this much lighting left. So
Not really knowing what to do. I just kind of wrapped it around randomly. I don't know looks a little
Bottom-heavy lit, but it's fine
So then I got slightly smaller ornaments for this tree since the tree was a little smaller for context
This is a six-foot tree and the one in the living room is seven and a half feet
Which I feel like it's a really good size for like a main living room area
Yeah, this QT is going in the corner. And so I'm putting all those ornaments on there
Also a life hack you see this container that all those ornaments came in keep that do not throw that away
after you put them up because you need a place to store all of your ornaments and all of your decorations and everything after and
Your life would be a lot easier if you saved the exact container that it fits perfectly in
Next up
We still had a bunch of pumpkins out and a bunch of flowers that decorate our house and that's just not super super Christmas
so I'm taking those down and then I bought a
Velvet red table runner which as you can see needs some serious like ironing or steaming or something
but actually the creases have gone away and then I followed that up with a
Centerpiece that Janine got because I just thought the table runner would add a little something and next something that I showed in last year's
Decorating DIY video there were a lot more DIYs in that video
It's just filling faces that you have around the house with small little ornaments or pinecones that I bought or bows or even candy canes
Just pretty much anything festive if you put it in a clear jar, it's gonna look good
So first up in this one, I bought some little mini green and red ornaments
some of them are matte and shiny and
glittery and whatever so I just put a bunch of those and then this little
Decorative vase that we already have out in our living room and I realized that was way too full. So then I retracted
Several but yeah, no vase left empty in the holidays. You've got to fill all of those up with something decorative
so then I took the square one and these little frosted pinecones I guess is the look that's supposed to go for they're a little
glittery
with some painted edges and I just tried my best to squeeze some of those in there without breaking them and
I think it looks pretty nice
So we actually ended up putting that in our little tray
Centerpiece that we have on our coffee table in the living room next up same deal
I bought a bunch of bows online that I actually intended to be present wrapping bows
But they are far smaller than I expected. Some of them are literally like three quarters of an inch big
I thought that the rose in a vase would be great. And then lastly a while ago. I have bought this little clear cookie jar
And for Halloween, I put all this candy corn in it
So I just thought it would be fun to switch that up for the holidays and it replaced the candy corn with candy canes
So that's what we're doing. I also love candy canes
So I imagine these are gonna actually get eaten unlike the candy corn not so much a fan
Also throughout all this I'm wearing that Victoria Secret pink pullover
Because it is so so cozy to take your holiday decorating to the next level
It's also all about paying attention to the really small tails and just finding ways to incorporate red or green or one thing
That's really small that I thought would be fine would be to just switch up our dish towels
So on our oven and then on the dishwasher
We have some white towels there and I decided to switch those up with some red ones a little more
We're gonna be the red but it's okay
And then I also took our soap dispenser above the sink and I found a really really cute santé one
So I switched that out next again thinking about the small things I decided it would be a good idea to in the living room
Switch out some of the pillows that we have and instead replace it with some red ones
So I bought these little pillow inserts online as well as these in velvet like red burgundy
Pillowcases I believe these are all twenty by twenty maybe eighteen by eighteen
Inches is the size of these and so let me tell you it was a task and a half to get this pillow in there
Finally got it. Whoo. So what next I am just experimenting a little switching those out. Thankfully we already have some green pillows. So
that worked out nicely took away the pink ones and then
plopped down
This festive blanket that Adrienne had and then our living room is a little bit more festive also switching out the things in this centerpiece
So taking away those flowers putting in the pinecones
I added a little snow globe and then a little Christmas tree trinket that I found. So now we have a festive little coffee table
Next just another random decoration. I got this vase and I saw these really cute like festive
Greenery slash berries on a stick. I don't know what you call these
Branches, I guess would be the proper term
So I made a little assortment of those then I thought that that would just be cute over in the living room
We ended up moving this to the Nook but just a really cute decoration
Next up it is Garland time
I had to do something with
our big stare area since that's what we're looking at whenever we're watching TV or anything like that and then I bought three stockings for
me and my two roomies and
Hung those on the railing as well
Lastly I'm just wrapping up a present. I'm ruining this for my friends, but I'm getting my college roommates Christmas underwear again
Even though we graduated a while ago just as like a cute little present
black with wrapping paper is by
Reversible wrapping paper because that way you can really mix up how everything looks and you're not having to buy double the supplies
So then yeah, that is pretty much it for how I decorated
That is it, thank you guys so much for watching
I hope you enjoyed this video if we gave you guys a few ideas of how to decorate your home and if you have ideas
