I suppose you could liken it to England and the Isles gathering up odd scraps of cloth, planning what pattern of quilt to make, then spending two months sewing it together, and sharing it with your neighbors. Lots on YouTube of your type of thing, too.

Difference of countries, and outlooks on things.

Re: Took Me Ages!

I must say from what I have seen of the Americans decor style on YouTube,..they have got style and class, ..Christmas imo is a bit over the top, but hey ho, each to their own.


When they do something like Christmas, they sure do it in style, certainly got the WOW! factor.

They must spends thousands on some of their decor, it sure looks expensive, I love it when they say , y’all!

I find them more entertaining than some of us brits,..

The television designer shows are designed(pardon the pun) to be over the top, else they wouldn't hold the viewer's interest. Yes, some folks have more money than brains, and want to spend it decorating. Most of us are more attuned to what we can spend and not bleed our checking accounts dry.
It is like that everywhere, I would suppose.
Still, it is entertaining to watch these designer/fashion/ makeover homes, etc. shows. We love them, don't we? When all is said and done, it makes us feel more sensible with our own life choices.
