GeminiTay – Christmas Mansion Transformation! – Minecraft Timelapse

Hello everybody it is officially december which means i am getting into the holiday spirit and i wanted to transform a build into a christmasy paradise this is my favorite time of year for decorating so that’s what we’re going to do with this build the first

Thing we’re going to do is get rid of all of this greenery it needs to be snowing of course i personally am from canada so i love a white christmas so we’re just going to replace all of our grass cover it in snow we’re going to use the replace over

Command to cover the trees and the bushes and of course the roobs also need a nice layer of snow on them now that everything is nice and cold our fountain over here with the flowing water in it uh i think that needs some ice don’t you

So we’re just gonna take all of the streams here and turn them into ice and i even use some packed ice down on the bottom they’re just to add a little bit more detail to it and i really like the way that looks i think it’s time to build a snowman now

We’ve got some snow on the ground we’re going to build the first of what will be four snowmen in this build and he gets some nice outstretched arms and nice carrot nose and we’re gonna be using some heads for the eyes and topping him off with a

Nice little top hat to keep him warm this guy is kind of like the father snowman now that he’s done we’re going to take some garland and just put it around the feet of our statue here i’m using a sphere command for this with a radius of

One and then just going through by hand and kind of roughing it up adding in some air blocks and just shaping it the way that i want it i really like the way that this decoration looks although it is very simple it doesn’t take away from the building but it definitely adds that

Little bit of holiday spirit to it after that’s done i’m going to start on a wreath and i just use the sphere command again around in a circle adding in some glass blocks for detail and topping it off with a nice red ribbon and i just love the way that that looks

Over that archway it fits in so nicely once that is done we’re going to move on to our trees here and i’m going to be using some brick slabs for these just spiraling those around so they look like some ribbons and then adding in some glazed terracotta for our christmas

Decorations we’re going to flip that over so that we have the same on all four trees and now it’s time to add in some candy so we get some candy cane pillars over here and now in front of our mansion we’re gonna be adding in some candy canes full on right in front

Of this and i love the effect that this gives when you’re walking up the stairs to the mansion ah it just looks so good now we’re going to be adding some more garland to this stairway and of course to the railing and we’re using some heads for the berries in this as well

Gives a nice little pop of red now for the mansion i wanted to do some christmas decorations that didn’t take away from the building too much so i decided to do some candles in front of these windows just nice simplistic i used some smooth sandstone for that getting them

Surrounded with some bushes so that we keep our theme and that’s just such a nice little simplistic design for this mansion going around the roof we’re going to be adding some garland i originally want to do some colorful lights but i decided to keep with our theme and do with red and

Gold and i like the way that turned out i did it on every edge all the way around and it just kind of brings the whole thing together keeps our theme fluent throughout right so while we were working on our house our snowman over here got a little

Cold so we’re gonna be giving him a scarf very classy very classy and now we are moving on to a massive christmas tree as our centerpiece so this kind of mansion garden so i start off with some spheres and bring them up in a straight line to kind

Of decide my height and then i just start smoothing that out getting the shape that i want obviously a lot thicker on the bottom than the top once i’m happy with that i replace all of my gold and start on the branches and for these branches i’m using gold blocks and

I’m just going to be dragging them out and kind of giving them a nice curved shape curved up at the ends just like on a real christmas tree or at least on the christmas trees that i use and i just love the way that these branches really help you out when you’re

Building obviously when you’re doing a smaller tree you tend to just use leaves but i think adding in the branches on a bigger tree really gives that extra effect of realism and it also gives you a nice platform to build your leaves off of and it just makes your job a lot

Easier overall this is definitely a good spot to use the curve command that i showed off in the last video but i did not do that it was really early in the morning i didn’t have my brain screwed on right yet and i just want to do some building by hand

Sometimes i get like that so that is what i did and i quite like the way that this christmas tree turned out not too many branches and leaves i think just enough now once we’ve got all of that done we’re gonna add in some decorations and

This is where things really start to get fun because we have so many new blocks in 1.12 so we could use concrete and glazed terracotta and regular terracotta and stained glass and oh just everything we’re going to be getting a bunch of different shapes and designs none of

Them are the same personally on my christmas tree at home we don’t do any of those like themed like all gold or all silver we just have a bunch of ornaments that are all kind of meaningful to us and we put them all on and it’s all crazy and colorful and not

Themed at all and i think that that’s just what i wanted to go for here because that’s what’s special to me so i quite like the way this turned out we’ve got some that look like icicles some that look like snowflakes just everything and once we’ve got all of our

Ornaments on that we could possibly want we are going to top off this tree with a star right on the top for the finishing touch once the star is on we’re going to add a nice tree skirt down here and start putting in some presents to give to our

Friends i again went a little crazy with the blocks on this one you can see i even used melon you can use literally any block you want you can even use sponge if you wanted to actually now that i think of it i probably should have used sponge

Yeah probably anyways i’m just stacking up a lot of different presents here trying to get lots of different shapes and sizes and wrapping them in ribbon and they really finish off the christmas tree quite nicely in my opinion now that our christmas tree is in we’re

Going to turn our attention back to the mansion and just add a little bit more garland you can see i’m kind of jumping around a bit here because once i’m kind of done in one area i’ll move on to another one and then maybe i’ll get re-inspired for the next area so i’ll

Start on there again and that’s kind of how my building process goes so now our father snowman across the way needs two children over here who are going to be playing so we’re building two little snowmen here kind of getting the balls kind of stacked a little

Unevenly and then we’re giving them some arms just to give them kind of a personality and they’re gonna be holding up a snowflake got their little faces and of course hats and scarves for both of them and then they need a mother snowman now the mother snowman was a little bit

Upset with me because i didn’t decorate these trees back here so she took it upon herself to take some decorations and start decorating them herself and i of course gave her a hat and a nice cloak to go around and she’s got pretty much the same face and structure as the

Rest of her family i just love the way that these snowman came out they really add some personality to the build and just give it that like cheesy christmassy it doesn’t have to be all classy and fancy even though this is a mansion we’re gonna do some funny cool stuff

And now that that is done we are just going to add some finishing touches to the mansion which is some spirally garden garland on these pillars and then it is done i hope you guys like this build and maybe were a little bit inspired to decorate some of your own

Builds for the holiday season that is it for this video i will see you guys in the next one thanks so much for watching bye bye
