Did anyone notice QVC didn't seem to have as many Christmas decorations for sale this season as in other seasons.  Once in a while you can catch Valerie Parr Hill and there have been shows with Christmas trees but I just feel like other years there were so many decorations you could purchase that they just don't have this year.  I wish they would bring back Thomas Paconi.

I agree with you.  I don't understand their new marketing, it's the same old, same old boring stuff over and over.

They used to have great specials you could count on for the holidays, especially holiday makeup, a really nice watch, holiday clothes, etc.  It was always fun to see the latest TSV, now, not so much.

I noticed with ED on Air decorations a lot of reduced prices which surprised me.  I ended up purchasing some beautiful candles on sale from ED.  I thought the Christmas decoration programs were the same for Valerie but I do not watch the vendors selling trees so I don't know if they had a lot of shows.

I only shop online so I guess I'm not missing a lot. I do catch an occasional IM live show

I noticed in my neighborhood that fewer and fewer people put up outdoor decorations every year.    Even the stores have been putting up cardboard cut-outs instead of the lavish decorations of years back..............   Also, no banners and lights over the streets in shopping areas.   Bah Humbug.

@jenjen1127  Lots of decor shows are gone...

I miss the Linda Dano and Lisa Robertson's decor shows. ED and Jill had some shows, but their decor choices just don't suit my tastes. The only decor I bought from one of Jill's shows was a pair of baby polar bears

They just repeat most of the stuff from July 1st on it seems with very few new items added over the following few months. I personally think a lot of their stuff is kinda tacky with a good item thrown into the mix once in a while. Or, a lot of the stuff you can find very similar at stores in your area - yes I know - no value pays, but probabaly cheaper anyhow.  

I mean seriously, how many battery operated things does one need just sitting around their home?

I absolutely adore Ellen, but her Christmas items do not appeal to me. I like "earthy" somewhat; however, hers are a bit much for my taste. I also miss Lisa even though some of hers were a bit "over the top". Nice to have a choice, I guess. Valerie is the best !! I hope she never leaves the Q.

@pattypeep  ITA! Last week I ordered 2 of her mosaic hurricanes in the multi (H209767) and should be getting them on Monday. What did you order from Valerie this year?  

[pattypeep]

@Susan Louise  It would almost be easier to say what I didn't buy. I also received the multi mosaic hurricane ~ you won't be disappointed. It is stunning. I only went back to Sept. on my orders, but what I received are two sets of pedestals, the illuminated wax glistening trees, the silver sleigh, antiqued pinecone tree, the vintage bells in silver, the twig branch sprays, two sets of beaded garlalnd, two glitter trees and beaded fruit candle rings.  I apologize in advance if these weren't all VPH. I get confused sometimes when Jill discusses her items in conjunction with Valerie. PS and by the way, I didn't need a thing this year, but....the best laid plans of mice and men.
