whether you're ready or not mid October is
a prime time to get started shopping on your Christmas gifts and Decor so every year I love
to sit down with you guys share with you what I'm seeing what I'm buying and new fun unique ideas
and ways you can use these items that maybe you didn't think of so settle in grab a beverage get
comfy cuz we are going to talk all things [Music] Christmas you're watching whiskey and wet my
name is Whitney and a huge thank you to fabfit fun for sponsoring today's video and helping me
bring you all of these amazing finds also a huge thank you to my whiskey craft buddies who are
here each and every week to DIY along with me if you love Christmas you love DIY home decor all
those things and you're not already subscribed no worries just head down hit that button before you
leave and make sure your Bells turn on that way YouTube will notify you every time I post a new
video so we're going to get started with Walmart today because Walmart let me tell you they
are just continually raising the bar somebody in their corporate office or teams have said you
know we are going to be the leader in affordable Christmas decor and I think they're doing a great
job at hitting all of those points we're going to kick it off with these really pretty they're
called wood Jingle Bell Garland decor and these are from the holiday time when I first saw these
I would have bet you that they were from the my Texas house Christmas and if you're not familiar
with Lines within stores it's really just kind of how they differentiate and brand some of the
stuff that they sell so for Walmart they've got holiday time and then they also have my Texas
house which is actually this Bell and I honestly thought all this came from the same Decor line um
but these are actually like holiday time which is Walmart's like owned Brand This is a collab that
they've done with an influencer for a few years called my Texas house so she's got everything
from trees and rugs and bedding to decor with these you get 10 Bells you could also cut them
apart and use them as embellishments for your gifts lots of different options and these are kind
of some of those viral items you're going to want to get on rather quickly this small one is $10.98
and this large one is $15.98 so together the set is 25 which I think for the quality and the fact
that the little like Bell stick I feel like this happened before and I don't remember what you
guys told me the name was so sorry pregnancy brain but they are metal instead of wood which
is what my other ones are and these are like really good metal so I'm going to put these
on my mantle they had some great options for garlands and these are the things that are already
starting to sell out because they're such a great deal I love these candy ones they're like little
red white and green candies and then I also have one back here with just red candies if you can
see back here and then I also got these two little gingerbreads which are ornaments that go really
well together so those were under five bucks a piece so just something to keep in mind check out
the ornament section because they sit on their own and they're a lot cheaper cuz they're ornaments
I also grabbed two of these $5 red and white garlands not only are these great to put in a gift
basket to kind of spice it up these are also great for trees and what I plan to use these two for is
they are going right into my hospital bag because I'm going to use these as like a really fun like
prop when I take pictures of baby boy when he's born this is a big one and this we bought for our
house because if you have heard me talk about it my son Finn who is for loves trains when I say
love I feel like that's an understatement we are a train loving house and so when we saw this
I actually saw this cuz my friend Shannon over at the daily DIY told me about this you want to
make sure to check out her Channel too I'll link it down below she just did a Walmart haul in
DIY video that was awesome but I love this cuz there's an opening and then this side is blank
so I think what I'm going to do is put a tree in here cuz he's got a lot of tree ornaments that
are trains set this up the little bell rings this thing is so cute I also forgot to include this
cute little $1.98 train ornament this would be great for crafts if you are looking to make over
a train or a Polar Express situation but Finn just really loved this in the store and I wanted to
share it in case you want to decorate with trains I'm a huge fan of Walmart trees and garlands and
wreaths I didn't need to purchase any this year I'm trying to you know really take stock of what I
have especially cuz we're bringing in all the baby stuff but if you are looking for garlands both lit
and unlit if you're looking for wreaths that don't shed if you're looking for great options for trees
which is a lot of the options that I have around my house definitely check out Walmart I also
grabbed some of these like twinkly lights I did the warm white ultra slim they're battery operated
and they have a timer these are my favorite ones to put on lit wreaths so I grab like couple boxes
of these they're 34t long so they wrap even a big wreath really well these are definitely worth your
money they are under 10 bucks and they make magic with wreaths speaking of greenery something I did
pick up were these picks Walmart picks every year are amazing I always stock up on these because
they're so nice to have on hand to just throw like on a sign it's that like plasticky material
so it does not shed which in a house where I've got a kid and a dog I don't like shedding but I
deal with that part I don't want to add any more shedding so these are awesome and they're under
a dollar a piece continuing on with ornaments how cute are these Little Snowmen I actually bought
these for winter Decor but you can use them in Christmas decor they're ceramic and all they have
at the top to make them be an ornament is like a teeny little like hanger thing it's metal so if
you hang it on your tree cuz these are decently heavy it'll be fine but I'm just going to cut that
and set it up and these are going to be great for winter well past Christmas cuz there's no red
on them you could add a little bit of ribbon for a red scarf and then you can change it to you
know green or black Buffalo check and they were so inexpensive two bucks $1.98 I shared these guys in
my fall video cuz that's when I grabbed them and I didn't want you to miss out but they still have
them and they've got more in store now and they are these Christmas Vacation ornaments we've got
Eddie and Clark they're more cartoony this year but I really think they're so so adorable these
are a part of a huge huge ornament display so you're definitely going to want to check that out
in Walmart if you like ornaments and then also in there I found these Papa elf and Buddy the elf
Funko sets and the great thing about these is they're ornaments but they do sit up on their
own so these are great for teered trays I get questions all the time and if you were to get
funkos like this they would easily be like 30 bucks probably but this was I think 16 something I
actually saw this Santa candle holder when we went to a Walmart in Fort Worth when we were at pinners
and obviously I had no room to put anything in my suitcase so I was hoping that he would be in
stock at mine and then now is the time I also like to grab a ton of like wrapping supplies if
I need it because all the good stuff sells out early so first thing I grabbed was this card I
like to have like Christmas vacation and other option cards so that I can just pull them out when
I need them it has a little glitter on the front but for Clark and Ellen I will let that go I also
got this one which is a magic moments card it's hard to see so I'll open it and show you but it's
like a popup for e.l.
So like how cute would this be to send like if you send money or if you send
just Christmas cards to let somebody know you're thinking of them these they had like I think
they had a Grinch in A Christmas Story again no Christmas vacation but it's even got like Santa's
coming from the movie up here so many cute options and then super quick for Dollar Tree because my
stores don't really have anything out other than what I saw last year however in their plus section
they had these they have have white ones and they also have these red ones but the white ones have
glitter on them these do not have glitter and I bought a few of these for my gingerbread setup
I think these are so cute I love that this is the ribbon on them cuz I don't have to do any
DIY they turned out so cute and they're three bucks a piece in the Dollar Tree plus section
I can guarantee you these will sell out they'll be great for center pieces for your table just
mixing them in I went into Menard's specifically to find these because I saw somebody share
them online how cute they're Christmas Vacation dog toys from the bark company that does Bark
Box last year I almost bought a whole Bark Box but you had to start a subscription and I wasn't
trying to do that and I got a Clark an RV and a cat for Sebastian and then I also grabbed an extra
cat because I do a Christmas Vacation tree every year and I thought this would be so cute to just
like be able to pose within the tree now let's unbox my winter fabfit fun box this is a seasonal
subscription box that I absolutely love getting for myself as self-care this has been a great
thing to look forward to throughout the pregnancy but the other thing I love about this is it makes
a wonderful gift if you're not sure what to get somebody you can purchase this box for them and
then they can customize it to what they want so every season spring summer fall and winter so four
times a year you get to customize this box with six full-sized items oh how cute look how festive
their boxes are always so cute the tap even said you made the nice list this year so we're going
to open this nice and festive and let's see what's in here each season the box contains up to six
fullsize items like I mentioned from categories across all things so Beauty fashion Fitness
Wellness even home decor which is right up my alley you go through the categories you pick
the items that you want in the six categories and then they will ship it to you the first thing
I am seeing is this Brock your body round ceramic set I am really excited about these because we're
heading into soup season here in the Midwest and these are little soup Crocs oh so cute they come
with a white and a green and I will have all the retail prices on the screen here for you so you
can see what these would be if you buy them on your own I love that it's also nice to make like
an individual thing of like a french onion soup or a baked potato soup you put it in there you can
put it in the oven cuz sometimes the microwave just doesn't cut it this says it's oven safe to up
to 475° so that will definitely do the trick for what I am looking for in my kitchen this winter
up next is a beautiful jewelry piece this is an 18 car goldplated adjustable crystal bracelet I
thought this would be really nice to wear for any get togethers coming up it looks like a beautiful
tennis bracelet but it's adjustable which is also great for me cuz I got a little pregnancy swelling
is this large tote bag this is from the brand Cleo Bella I like that it is more of a cotton so this
will be a little easier to clean and it is a nice deep bag I I think what I might do is put like my
photo props in here that I want to take with baby boy when we get to the hospital and I also like
black you can't go wrong with black it's also got a nice drop on the shoulder I also wanted to try
one of these for so long so I was really excited to see it in the options it is a safety alarm
so basically what you do is you put on your bag you put it on your keys so that when you pull it
you can do that when you are feeling unsafe this is great especially too for like college girls
girls that are going to be you know doing the independent thing but also on a little bit of
a backup one of those things that it's nice to have you never want to use but it is nice to have
if you ever do need it and then my last two items this is from Fenty Beauty which is Rihanna's
line I wanted to try some of her products but I haven't cookies and clean this is a detox face
mask I thought that would be great especially heading into winter heading into the end of the
pregnancy I can do a little self-care and then this container is full of different Beauty
sponges if you're anything like me you don't clean them well enough so I definitely needed
some new ones and then there's also a little scrubby at the bottom to help you clean them so
definitely much needed for me here's a recap of everything that was in my winter fabfit fun box
and I tallied it up it is worth $271 if I bought it all individually but with my coupon codes
you won't pay anywhere near that so I've got two different options one is for an annual membership
which means you will be build annually you'll pay for all of your boxes four at once and you can use
use the code Whitney gift all the info is down in the description and that will give you with a
new annual membership a surprise gift valued at over $200 so that's a nice perk you'll also save
a ton of money throughout the year and get access to flash sales I have bought everything from Kate
Spade to Quay to living proof dry shampoo all on a discount so I would definitely recommend that if
you want to do just one box and be build every 3 months pay individually you can do that too with
the code Whitney on your first box you'll get 20 % off with that code so I love fatfit fun I am a
member whether I work with them or not I really like it as a gift to myself but I also love giving
it to family and friends all the details you need to know are down in the description up next from
HomeGoods and TJ Maxx we're going to continue with the Criswell theme so if you shop Pottery Barn in
their seasonal lines at all they have a cat pillow from Christmas Vacation that's like $80 and I've
wanted it but I haven't pulled the trigger because I'm like listen I don't know like that's a lot of
money on a pill I found this look how big this is cat tail lights the whole shebang 20 bucks instead
I think that's much better the lights wrap around the back I cannot wait to put this by my Christmas
Vacation tree I got this gingerbread house I love these These are from the brand Cupcakes and
Cashmere they have them every year and they light up I love these because they look so real the
details amazing and I like the little green and red accents I don't like it to be super colorful
cuz I have a bunch of theirs from years ago that I put in my kitchen and this is just like I had
to grab this one you guys loved it in the fall when I shared some Amazon finds so I wanted to
do that again just a couple things and most of them no all of them are Christmas Vacations so
far the first thing I wanted to share was this Griswald car this was so fun to build with Finn
and it is under $25 it's not the LEGO brand it's a different brand it was easy to make and I'm going
to add a tree for my Christmas V setup I also got this ornament which has Todd and Margot on it
just says why is the floor all wet Todd I don't know Margot so that'll be a great addition to the
tree on the prime big deal days I found this I got it in an extra large so it would be pregnancy
and postpartum friendly what I love about it is it says grisal illumination but it say Chicago
Illinois down here established 1989 and then this I wanted to share because Courtney sent me this
for my birthday it is a big oversized Griswald family vacation throw from Amazon and I can't wait
to cuddle up with this and watch the first round of Christmas vacation for the year here's an item
I accidentally forgot in the Amazon section it is this Garland with these really pretty felt bulbs
these are actually dupes or something they're selling right now as ornaments on the West Elm
site but I thought this would be really cute for staging items or even putting them on my Christmas
Vacation tree with all the color up next let's talk jav lvy so jav lv's Christmas stuff has been
50% off for a while now but there stores really haven't at least by me have gotten all their stuff
out so now I feel like I kind of have seen a lot of their stuff and some of it is repeats from last
year but some of it is really good finds a great wet tip is shopping the aisles of neutral colors
because you can get stuff like this that is so pretty you can use it for Christmas and then this
is perfect for winter as well so you don't have to put it away right away after Christmas you
can redecorate add some greens instead of Reds you're good to go up first I grabbed one of their
small houses that lights up because it reminded me of the houses that I have from HomeGoods TJ Maxx
this one was $15.99 it's very glittery I'm going to have to seal it but I love the look and then
I also found these ornaments that are so cute they're $5 originally but they were 50% off so I
got houses and they look like little cookies I got trees and you can either hang them as ornaments or
you can remove the hanger and have these like in a Clos looking like you know fresh baked cookies
I also got this little sign which was like 350 little hot cocoa I love little things like this I
can put into my Hutch display with all my baking stuff I grabbed one of these wood Bells this
was $8.99 so $450 on sale I thought this was super pretty it does jingle it's just packaged for
shipping cuz I got it online and then I also in the same vein got this little deer I thought these
would be great for winter I bought one of these last year and I kicked myself for not getting more
they're the viral like Norfolk Garland I love this cuz it's that plasticky material it looks so real
but the plasticky material is not going to shed it's great for like up above your cabinets too cuz
you're not going to have bits falling in your food this thing is so Lush and I waited until it went
on sale so I got it for 50 instead of 100 which is not like super cheap but this thing is going
to last year I got one last year I got one this year these next couple are going to be rapid fire
because I grabbed just a couple things at each store but I definitely think they're worth sharing
the first being Target I have not found really anything in my stores yet for Target Christmas but
this was by threshold with Studio McGee and I love this Nutcracker I feel like right now there's only
one style of Nutcracker that you can find and this one I love I love the color I love the size this
is going to look really good on my mantle there's also some really pretty Studio McGee options that
I duped in my thrifting video earlier this week so definitely check that out if you want to dupe some
of that high-end art that you can do with thrifted items or items you already have in your house
up next is Lowe's now I couldn't find any of these in my store my Lowe's for some reason have
terrible selection for seasonal but the online came through so the first thing I got was this
countdown to Christmas it's a cute little Mickey Nutcracker you push the button and it lights up
of Finn is very excited because it has the number here you can hit it and countown we love Mickey
in our house right now I also grabbed these blow molds are usually way too large for for me to find
somewhere to put but these I thought were awesome they light up they're so cute and I think these
are super fun because I can put them around the house I might put them in my gingerbread setup
and I just loved the size in the fall that was the first time I brought you guys along with me
to World Market and the one that's close-ish to me is not in an area I shop a whole lot or when
I'm in that area it is not to go shopping and I don't have time so I made a point to go over there
because I saw so many different Instagram reels and Tik toks of the items that they had and let me
tell you you guys everything from pink Christmas to Nutcracker to baking to colorful Christmas to
traditional they have so many options everything from dinner wear napkin wear Decor they've got
amazing options to for different items if you want to gift things from different countries they
also have a beautiful assortment of ornaments so I would definitely recommend checking it out that's
not a store like I said that I frequent often but for Christmas you're definitely not going to want
to miss it like I said they've got mugs I grabbed a few different options so I grabbed this one
because it's a metal campfire mug I like this because I can put things like hot cocoa in it
for Finn and he can still have the experience with us without having the bulk and heaviness of
a traditional ceramic mug I got a small one so in case you know we've got two cuz we'll have two
boys here but I also wanted to give them a smaller option he's not big into cocoa but he will drink
his milk out of here to feel like he's part of the crew so I got both of those because I thought
they were just so cute and then I also got this little one we figured we could put milk for Santa
in it or if you wanted a ceramic one I love this size for little kids this is perfect or if you're
a big espresso person this would be great for that every year I add a Santa mug to my collection and
I'm always looking for a little bit different of a face and so this one's a little different this was
$7.99 to add to my collection and I thought this candy cane one would be perfect for a teacher gift
or friend gift to put like a gift card for coffee or something inside so I grabbed this to put in my
gift stash so I'm not sure who I'm going to gift it to but it's nice to have these things on hand
in that same vein I bought this for a gift as well I thought a pink tree with a lid you could put
some goodies inside and tie it up all cute I had to get this ornament it is a shopping cart and
I like that it doesn't say World Market on it I think I might even add my logo to the front but
I'm always looking for ornaments that represent the job here that I do at Whiskey and wi and one
of my things being like this video shopping haul and tips and so I thought this would fit so
cute on my tree so had to pick this guy up he was $7.99 I grabbed three different spoon rest
for entertaining cuz we like to have we have a Christmas party every year probably not this year
just cuz I'm be so pregnant I got a gingerbread one and then I got two little Santa ones these
are great for tea bags as well and in the winter I drink a ton of tea and then finally I got some
of these bow napkins I'm either going to turn them into a craft project or just use them as napkins
but the red bows are just speaking to me this year and then this one is so pretty it has like a lot
of embroidery on it for the peppermints the candy canes the bow this one was $9.99 this one is
definitely going to be on the tea towel ladder versus one that people are using to dry their
hands but I thought this would be so cute in the dining room real quick I wanted to wrap it up with
a couple baby finds I know not everybody's going to be interested in this but I did want to include
them cuz a lot of you have said you're expecting grandbabies or babies around the same time as
me and so I found some really cute stuff from different brands so the first being copper Pearl
I swore by them throughout my first time being a mom with Finn and so I got this for Hospital
pictures it is an e.l.f onesie from coverer Pearl their stuff is so soft and it also has a matching
swaddle blanket that is in the mail right now I'm going to pair it with this green and white buffalo
check hat for some Hospital pictures and then Finn picked out these really cute lovey blankets that
are Polar Express themed also from copper Pearl all these are available on Amazon as well the
quality is amazing we have items that we use throughout the whole time with Finn and then we're
going to wash them up and use them for the next baby because they are such good quality speaking
of Polar Express I was able to find these adorable PJ sets for Polar Express on Hannah Anderson their
PJs are usually really expensive but I caught them on a sale where they were doing 20% off sitewide
and then I signed up for their email list which that is where a lot of the Good coupons are and
I got an additional 20% off so I was able to save on these for the family so I got a set for Finn
that's just the top and then look at the baby we're all going to match we usually do matching
Christmas pajamas but I was excited to be able to find train ones cuz Finn wanted that for the whole
family so Hannah Anderson they have really cute PJs but definitely please for the love of God shop
a sale cuz that can get price to and then these were a little bit of a Splurge but I bought these
as kind of keepsakes I think it's really special to be having a baby in the Christmas season and
so I got this from the brand cuddle and kind I saw them on Instagram and fell in love this is a
little baby Santa hat how cute that is going to be so cute and then these are the baby animals that
they have so they are all handmade and what I love about this is It's Made by South American Artist
and so it helps provide jobs for them fair trade I will link more information on the company cuz
it also provides meals so they do a lot of good work over at cuddling kind I did a gingerbread man
a gingerbread house and the cute little snowman that's going to do it for this haul now quick
