they only item I was tempted with was that beautiful wreath.   And yesterday the orchid .

@Alsace Gal ,

That ribbon really does add so much and looks like the wreath came with the ribbon. I think Valerie would highly approve!

So I am going to go to Michael's and get a black and white checked ribbon! So If you see a door with your same wreath I hope you will be honored

I am surprised to see such a negative post about tonight's show! I came specifically to comment about how much I enjoyed the pairing of Valerie and Mary; I thought they had great chemistry, lovely discussions about the items (including coverage of lots of details that many hosts neglect), and a very pleasant and enjoyable show overall. I hope these ladies are matched up on more VPH presentations throughout the year.

@loriqvc,

It is strange how we all see things so differently with hosts.

I'm glad you enjoyed it and wish I could have felt the same as you did.

I appreciate you sharing your feelings about it though without criticizing mine,

so thank you

I ordered the small hurricanes in the petal pink. I am already looking forward to the February shows.

I always enjoy watching her shows but, maybe just me, her stuff is beginning to look a bit old and tired. Maybe because country/farmhouse style seems to have had its day, at least that's what I'm told by the younger generations.

I do like Valerie, but what has been on air has been on for a few years.  There is nothing new and fresh.  It's the same old same old things.

@loriqvc   I had the show on while I was doing other things. So I will admit that I wasn't listening with full attention. But I never heard any yelling. And I thought that Mary was careful not to take over and interrupt Valerie. I think they are a good pairing. 

I didn't purchase anything. Very little appealed to me.  So much of her stuff looks too fussy for my taste. I found the twinkling small hurricanes pretty but I don't use the larger ones that I have now. And I have a lot of these. Valerie seems to be leaning into her religious beliefs quite a lot. But I don't have a problem with this. I am sure that this appeals to a lot of her fans.

I've caught snippets of the show and love seeing her things on air again. I don't need anything so I've not purchased anything yet but that's not to say I won't be tempted as I watch more. Nice seeing Mary DeAngelis back on air again, I've missed seeing her. I sure do need a new springtime wreath for my front door, probably wanting to rush winter away

I didn't mind Mary D during the show.  I did get the sensation that they had A LOT of stuff to present and they were trying to rush along.

I was still up late and started watching the last show, until I realized it was the repeat of the 3rd show.  At that time, I did think that Mary D was going a mile a minuite and was a bit annoying. 

I bought several of the small hurricanes.   I enjoyed having sets of smaller lit candles from Valerie and they seemed to work better with the scale of my home and furnishings. 

I was hoping to see a return of the tulips, the daffodils, and the iris from last year as spring flowers.  They were terrific.  

I guess Valerie is coming back in February, so I'll save my money for that show.
