[@christinekirkman7713]

Your idea of an advent giveaway is such a generous and lovely change from watching folks open advent calendars. Really, really nice❤

[@texstylust]

Thank you so much! I wanted to do something a little different.

[@rhondazamora8136]

The candlestick holders are unique and beautiful. I enjoy seeing the treasures that you find. See you tomorrow.

[@MariaCaso1118]

Lori your generosity just blows me away! The advent basket you’re putting together is amazing! Wow those milk glass candlesticks you found are so unique and pretty, they would look gorgeous with a few winter greens and berries for Christmas! And I loved all the future projects you shared, especially the Santas. Cuddle up and stay warm and please give Izzy and Fi a few kisses from me. 🫶🏻🎄🫶🏻

[@texstylust]

Will do! I love your idea for the wintergreen berries!

[@karistutzman8381]

Love the milk glass candle holders. What a good find.

[@lindazimmerman3707]

Its always fun to see what the new purpose is for the old depression and milk glass that our Moms used in their decor.

[@texstylust]

I have a lot of pieces of pink depression glass that my grandmother gave me. I like to use it for tea parties.

[@jacquelineleibfried4691]

The candlestick holders are beautiful.

[@JulieHannula]

You are just the sweetest person, I look forward to seeing what you have in store for us each day! I ordered one of the books you showed the other day, found it on sale too.

[@texstylust]

That is so kind of you to say!

[@Sarah_J4]

The milk glass candle holders are really neat and unique. The advent box is lovely!

[@kogrady31]

Those milk candlestick holders are gorgeous and look in perfect condition! Great find! The advent box is turning into a treasure chest for sure! So sweet of you! Forgot to mention, I love the copper boiler you have. We have one just like it and I use it to display quilts rolled up. Thanks for your time Lori, love your Vlogmas!❤

[@texstylust]

Oh, I bet that’s gorgeous!

[@marydavis3935]

[@kathelyndsley6711]

Fun candle holders! So many wonderful goodies! Have a fun holiday with your family!

[@Springcreekkristi]

Those candlestick holders are lovely! You come across great finds!

[@lissahenderson3408]

The milk glass candle holders are so pretty. I Love how your kittens were cuddling together - and one had her arm around the other. They are precious!

[@texstylust]

They're the best cuddling buddies!

[@nancysumma6560]

Thrift shop finds are so much fun! Your candle holders are very pretty and can easily be repurposed. Endless possibilities! Thank you for sharing.

[@texstylust]

I agree! I love the endless possibilities of thrifting.

[@mtanoos]

Love milk glass. Like you, I have never seen it done in a candlestick holder. Great find!

[@Chris_Yoo__AsTheYooFlies]

Fun Fun. Just adore the daily visits!! Those kitties are very demanding LOL. Hugs from NE Ohio.

[@lisadonmez9552]

[@susanreznik5822]

[@debbiereynolds9276]

My Grandmother and Mother used to collect milk glass. My DIL now has them displayed on top of her kitchen cabinets. Very cozy to me. So glad you hit 6 thousand subscribers and so enjoy those scrumptious kitties. Thanks for sharing today. 🪡🛻☃️🎄

[@texstylust]

Thank you! I was happy to see that I hit 6K too!

[@stitchesinpink]

Thank you Lori for your kind goodness in your advent giveaway! I love these daily meet-ups with you!!

[@texstylust]

You’re so welcome! I love our daily meet-ups too!

[@doriramon]

Thrifting is such fun! Your candlesticks are a wonderful find. Your sweet kitties are getting some camera time. ❤

[@texstylust]

They love being a part of the video!

[@gwenembardino2684]

My mother collected milk glass and I have a few pieces from her. I did the warm hands ornaments a few years ago for package decorations. They were a lot of fun to make.

[@marilynsr53]

Hi Lori ! Your milk glass finds are so pretty! I get such a kick out of your kitties!! 🐈‍⬛ So cute!! Really good book - lots of goodies in there!

[@annejost7178]

Love the milk glass candle holders. Growing up we had many things made of milk glass, but never seen those. Stay warm through your cold snap. ❤

[@purplepeacockjill]

The wool Santa’s are adorable!

[@bubbamenich5860]

Another fun Vlogmas, Lori! I found myself feeling sad that after Christmas, I won’t be able to tune you in daily! Thanks for the joy you bring to this stitching community! 🎄❤️🎄

[@dianestodola4082]

Sweet kitties! It's fun to see them in the videos. Cool find on the milk glass candle sticks! You reminded me I have some of those wool mitten kits. So right on so many projects and so little time. lol

[@kattavares1959]

Your kitties are so sweet. We adopted two kitties about 2 years ago. They were babies . My son and I feed them for a while from tiny bottles. I never had done that.They are brother and sister and names are Bonnie and Clyde. Their other three siblings were adopted out as well. Someone had dumped them in a box in the cold January evening by a dumpster. A friend of mine found them and successfully found homes for them all. So when I hear your babies cry I think it’s mine crying. Lol

[@texstylust]

It sounds like you gave your kitties a great start in life! I got mine from a quilting friend, whose granddaughter‘s cat had kittens unexpectedly. I really love my girls.

[@Jennlovesstitching]

Great finds at the thrift store, love to go thrifting, estate sales etc. The thrill of the hunt!! 🎄

[@texstylust]

I agree - thrifting is so much fun!

[@vickien4524]

The candle holders are a great find. Stay warm!

[@texstylust]

Thanks! It’s definitely getting chilly.

[@rosesells5609]

The milk glass candleholders were a great find!

[@donnaramsey9122]

You certainly can find some goodies!

[@deechrisman2219]

Such a wide arrangement of goodies in the advent bag you are making! The kitty is calling, you had better get what she wants, lol.

[@sarabrunsvold2461]

The milk glass candlesticks are beautiful!!! The gift bag…oh my!! Such great goodies!! Someone is going to be happy!!! Have a nice evening.

[@Merrcraw15]

Beautiful milk glass finds! I have a large collection, but have not seen those before. Love the Embroidery book you showed… so pretty!

[@coloradoblueskiesboutique7720]

Wow milk glass! Haven't seen that since my younger years. Although I am deathly allergic to cats, your kitties are besties sitting on top of that box and wrapping their arms together💕🎄😻my mouth is watering over that basket of goodies🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🥰

[@texstylust]

I hope you’ll be playing!

[@coloradoblueskiesboutique7720]

@ 👍 You bet!

[@pamelaevans5290]

The milk glass candlesticks are so pretty.

[@Peggy-yb7ho]

I love watching your kitties in the background 💕

[@julieschulz5798]

I really love the Santa patterns they are adorable! Have a great day hopefully stitching !

[@pennyh8996]

Sweet candleholders! Sweet kitties! And your hair is gorgeous!

[@texstylust]

Gosh, thanks!

[@PriviesandPrimsNeedlecrafts]

The kitty is demanding! 😊😺

[@texstylust]

They are loved!

[@elizabeththompson1882]

Lori I can't believe all the prresents you have put in the advent giveaway, thank you.

[@blendaorga1]

I remembered yesterday that I had some little scraps of wool and today I went looking for an old primitive quilts and projects magazine and will try to make a small wool appliqué, your vlogmas was just what I needed to get inspired. After the holidays I’ll embroider the small Valentine heart by Kathy Schmitz. By the way, my paper tree is lovely, just needs a little star. Thank you!

[@texstylust]

I am so thrilled! Your comment made my day!

[@donnaboyd5108]

You sure have some fun places to shop in your town. You come up with some lovely finds. Those kitties are just so adorable. They must be great company. Thank you for another fun video! 🎅💚🤶

[@texstylust]

Thanks so much! They definitely keep me company!

[@claudiam146]

Milk glass is one of my favorite things to collect! The candle holders are very pretty. I hope you are finding time to stitch!!

[@texstylust]

I’ll be doing some stitching tonight!

[@lanelles242]

Another great find Lori love the milk glass candlestick holders haven’t seen that type before…I’m sure u will find many uses for them❣️ kitties are just so cute..see ya tomorrow 🤗

[@texstylust]

They’re a little different, aren’t they?

[@angelamartin4812]

Beautiful treasure in the milk glass found! Thank you for sharing your finds. Inspires me to check out thrift shops more often 😊

[@texstylust]

You never know what treasures you might find!

[@candrasowder8236]

We had an overnight snow, but nothing so pretty as your view. I love milk glass, but have nowhere to display it. I'm glad you find little treasures in your shops.

[@texstylust]

I love those good little finds!

[@loveonaneedle9604]

I love the milk glass candlesticks too, so pretty! Lots of wonderful goodies in the advent bag, you’re so very generous with your time and talents, thank you!

[@dawneck936]

Your advent gifts are very generous. I love to collect milk glass too

[@marilynferlitsch2003]

The candle holders are unique, great find. What awesome goodies for the box. Cute pic of the kitties lying together Marilyn

[@kathygerhart7979]

What a great find, the milk glass candlestick holders are beautiful. What a generous and creative advent giveaway. Thanks for another great vlogmas.

[@texstylust]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@maureenschmidt2359]

Today was a hard day, but coming home to find that you had already posted a vlogmas episode made it so much better. Thank you.

[@texstylust]

I'm so glad I could brighten your day!

[@kaylynnmcclister3704]

The gift basket is looking very enticing! Your milk glass candle holders are lovely, what a score! Thank you for another wonderful visit with you.

[@loriking950]

I love your Vlogmas videos even if they’re short. You always share lovely items like the milk glass candlesticks, what a wonderful find.

[@texstylust]

Thanks so much, I appreciate you watching!

[@normacarbajal5664]

The milk glass candlestick holder is so pretty. The goodie box shows your generous nature. I get so many great ideas every time I wat your videos. Thank you.

[@penny-larkspurlanepenny7654]

Those candlesticks are so pretty and that sweet little hoop! My cat''s ears always perk up when he hears one of yours. ❤

[@texstylust]

When I was editing, Fiona looked perplexed when she heard her own meow.

[@cyndythomas7217]

Awww milk glass 💕 both mom and grandma collected items especially hobnail. Thanks Lori for putting in all this work on your vlogmas it’s been a lot of fun and I look forward to it. 🎅🏻🪡🎅🏻🪡🎅🏻🪡🎅🏻🪡🎅🏻

[@texstylust]

Thanks! I love milk glass too.

[@BrendaFuemmeler]

Those mittens are sooo cute!

[@SquashHouseQuiltsandStitches]

Oh, those two girls....if only our two were buddies like that! I absolutely love the milk glass candle holders, Lori! You could even put candies in the bottom, or little Christmas balls along with the candles for the holidays. Looking forward to tomorrow's Vlogmas! Hugs, Candace

[@debrabutler1953]

Your milk glas candle sticks are beautiful. What a find. I have a small collection of milk glass and am always on the hunt. My aunt introduced me and had a beautiful collection. Thank you as always for all of the inspiration. Now to find the time and energy at the same time! Happy creating!

[@Nan-Needlework]

Lori, you are a joy - and so very generous with your version of advent! (and your kitties are charming 🙂)

[@fredageorge7097]

The candle sticks were most unusual but gorgeous

[@StitchingWithTheSisterlies]

Love your wool Santa stand up charts. Grew up with milk glass so much milk glass ❤️❤️

[@WendyDicranian]

My Mom had a milk glass collection as well. Must have been a thing of the 50’s/60’s. The wool Santa pattern would be fun to make. I haven’t seen that pattern before. You have a lot of places to find some good “treasures”.

[@sheilalovesgreg3489]

Those candlesticks are very cool, good find Lori 😃!

[@pattychristensen9972]

I like the milk glass candlestick holders. Have never seen those.

[@sonyafisk8177]

Love the milkglass! The minute I saw them I thought about pin cushions. Very much enjoying your flossmas

[@nicolefaulkner4172]

Your wailing kitty cracked me up… sounded like a baby protesting 😁 My Mabel kitty gets that vocal at mealtimes (which she thinks need to occur way more often than they do 😂)

[@texstylust]

It’s really peculiar, they have a cat door to go in and out. For some reason, Fiona doesn’t like to go out the cat door, although she has no problem coming in the cat door.

[@jaymecampa3626]

I love your videos when you show what you get thrifting. I have gone thrifting but just don’t seem to have great luck. The white candlesticks are adorable.

[@texstylust]

I’m glad you’re enjoying the thrifting segments.

[@cynthiaknell9575]

You find the most interesting secondhand home decorations. I'd not seen the milk glass candleholders before. They are adorable and practical--having their own "drip pans". No bobeche needed. 😊

[@susanparker2690]

That milk glass is quite a find - I’ve never seen the candle stick holders, but as you say, it’s a dual purpose find! Love the pic of the kitties at the end keeping warm together!

[@afreespirit1]

What a wonderful way to start the day! Thank you for taking your time each day to make these Vlogmas videos.

[@zenarinaldi3844]

Loved the milk glass candlesticks. I can’t wait to see what you turn them into!!!❤️

[@karenjohnson8177]

Loved hearing the kitties in the background...we lost our cat in the spring and we keep debating about getting another one. We miss her.

[@texstylust]

Oh gosh, I’m so sorry! I still miss my last kitty terribly, and she’s been gone for over 20 years. They definitely wiggle into your heart don’t they?

[@valeriewallisch5249]

I’ve been picking up duchess and princess hoops whenever I find them at thrift shops. I have quite a few, and haven’t paid more than $1 for any. If you refurbish the felt on yours , I’d be interested in hearing how you went about doing it. That stand up Santa felt pattern is pretty neat. Reminds me of my collection of hand carved Santas. My parents learned wood carving in their retirement years. Santas were a favorite subject to carve. Each year my four siblings and I would get a new Santa they’d done. That was always our most precious gift from them. In all I have 16 of their Santas and many ornaments. They carved other things too like waterfowl and songbirds, but I like the Santas best.

[@texstylust]

Wow on your Duchess hoops! I found one at habitat, but the other one was through eBay. You don’t see them as often on the West Coast I guess. How amazing that you have all of your parents carvings. That’s so awesome!

[@rebeccajourney3183]

All the goods are looking scrumptious! I just ordered a multipack of assorted wool as I've never done wool applique. If I cut into Mom's Pennington wool yardage, I'll most likely get a call from beyond the grave!

[@texstylust]

😮😮😮

[@BrendaHotinger-TheQuiltingNook]

The milk glass candlesticks are very unique, I'll be on the lookout at some of my favorite shops for them. You are putting together a wonderful advent box!

[@cindyorton199]

I want everything in that box !! You’re very generous … I’m not sure I could part with it all. I have a few pieces of milk glass but haven’t seen the candlesticks before… wonderful find.

[@debbiduncan6082]

I love those milk glass candle stick holders. They are so pretty.

[@sdcrilly]

Those stand up Santas are so cute! I have never seen that pattern before. I hope you can get cozy, and warm your bones up!

[@karenbull588]

Your applique tree looks great.

[@texstylust]

Thanks, it was fun to make!

[@nana_mcstuffing5030]

Fabulous gifts for some very lucky person ❤❤❤

[@joyceclowser3371]

I was unaware of the milk glass, then today Colette, The Highway Stitcher, and you showed it on your flosstubes! Colette’s was a bowl from her mother, I believe. Who won “queen of the mountain” at your video end? LOL I can’t believe they both fit on the table! Happy stitching!

[@texstylust]

They were balanced precariously on top of that butter churn

[@debramckenzie266]

My Little Nest looks fun.

[@catheyok]

You enticed me to get a Kathy Schmitz book last year. I went in Thriftbooks and saved some others plus some Bonnie Sullivan books. Beautiful books!

[@texstylust]

That is awesome! So glad you found some great books at a good price.

[@amybarry3807]

Cute kitties. I too was looking for a how too, for the Duchess hoops felt repair. I didn’t come up with anything. I was told by others to just wrap it.
