🌟 Exploring Treasures at Our Local Thrift Store! 🌟 - by ARNE & CARLOS

[@karamalone7824]

I love thrift and antique shops!!!!!! I just love your channel and all your content ❤

[@kimberleepearson3269]

Carlos, I loved your comment about provenance. "Very important in the antique world, not so much in the thrift world." 😂😂 You have no idea how much better your thrift stores are in rural Norway than they are in northern Michigan. It's so much fun to watch you guys shop but also quite envy inducing!

[@TinaHale1]

I love the travelling trunks in that room

[@melitaclary3308]

I loved all of the Rosmaling Tina (?) I’ve never seen anything like it here in the USA !! Also I love the little orange vase/pitcher and cup set you walked by so many times ! It’s fantastic! 5:11 and 10:07. Then the basement!! 15:02 the Rosmaling on the trunk!! Then 15:24 I can’t take my eyes off of the tapered leg mid century modern desk ! It’s perfect for your computer to hide it !!So fun watching your chanel! I started when I was in cancer treatment . I was trying to find a good way to cook lutefisk!! You two are so fun ! Melita - A fan from the state of Idaho, USA.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Hi Melita! Thank you for your comment. We hope you are feeling better after your cancer treatment, did you end up making lutefisk?

[@TOBY_AND_LUCYS_ADVENTURES]

I think you should have put a little more gold paint it on each broken piece, it is meant to be raised a little that's what gives the funky look. The glue is apoxi, each tube has different thing 1 is glue & 1 is harder, the gold powder is just for show. They will work if you go a little slower xxxx😊

[@PaulaSlater-j8s]

Thank you for taking us along thrift shopping. OMG, I love Arne's cabinet with all the little drawers. Perfect for crafting supplies. I hope we get a tour when all is in place.

[@suelaughton723]

Oh! That chest you found for your scrapbooks, etc. is gorgeous! Congrats on your fun finds today!

[@louisearsenault7594]

I'm very happy about your comingback! My favorite find is Arne's cabinet with all the drawers. Wish I have one like this. As per Carlos' advice to carry a mesuring tape when going thrifting, I carry one for many years in my purse. I may need it in a general store, decoration store and more. Many years ago, I went shopping with my grand-child to buy her shoes. She was then 4 or 5 years old, but we couldn't separate both shoes that were attached to try (she is 19 now). I mesured her foot and bought the shoes. She couldn't believe when I took the tape out of my purse: "So you have that!" Precious moment. Happy end of summer you guys.

[@Tinacrafts2]

Was so cool seeing the railroad tracks right behind your house! Good reminder that you live in a train 🚂 depot. What a fabulous restoration!!

[@beth12svist]

Thrifting is like that. You rarely find what you were looking for and often find what you weren't. 😅

[@sophiabee8924]

I love a thrift shopping trip. I have two girlfriends who I do this with. I recently bought a mini chest of drawers for £1 and a chandelier (I kid you not) for £2!! I regularly buy things that I can upcycle for gifts at Christmas or birthdays. I also go thrift shopping when I go abroad. It's so much more interesting than tourist shops. Next time I go to Scandinavia, I'm going by train....no weight restrictions!

[@brendatucker35]

Guys it was delightful, here in NC USA. That wouldn't be a thrift store, but an antique shop!!! Our [here] thrift stores have very very cheap things. What I saw there would be antiques here...Wish I was there with you!!!❤❤❤❤❤

[@ARNECARLOS]

You can join next time!

[@melitaclary3308]

me too!

[@milesf7604]

I love how you found a vintage kitsch Australiana tea towel all the way in Norway! So funny 😂😂😂

[@carolfaber585]

I wasn’t expecting a new episode, so thanks! Thrift shopping with you is always fun. You might know this already, but Barbie has had several friends over the decades, many of whom used the same body but with different heads. I had one who was Barbie’s “groovy” friend. She had pigtails with beaded bands and sunglasses on her head. Very cool. Her name was P.J.! 😁

[@ARNECARLOS]

😎😎

[@melitaclary3308]

I had her too! I still have the dress (only the head ) and her underwear pink boxers with lace !

[@nancywagner1510]

Thank you for showing us the spinning wheel this time! Of course, I wanted to see the one in the basement,too. As a retired theater props builder/designer/acquirer (who still carries a tape measure in my pocket) I was SWOONING as I looked around at the furniture and trunks. If you ever run out of things to do you can start a brisk export business; just fill up a shipping container and make obscene profits.

[@melitaclary3308]

I agree! I loved it all !!

[@candygrubisic]

Who doesn't love a good treasure hunt right?

[@gittemora]

i keep my balls of yarn (reste-garnet) in my rose-painted box :)

[@thizizliz]

Such restraint! Fantastic. I hope you find the right cabinet to fill the space from the washing machine.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you!

[@cosmicpolitan]

Thanks for keeping me company this morning! 🌞😁💜

[@ARNECARLOS]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@jackiemueller205]

I usually give the wheel a start with my hand then start peddling. Nice skein winder!

[@aliasDMMc]

Arne, i had to laugh out loud, because you want to hide the computer. I can feel this 100%. I always decorate knitted pieces and anything made out of fabric but hide the technical stuff. I don‘t have a TV because it spoils the optic of a room and disturbs my eyes. Always fun to watch you guys💯

[@marilyn9155]

This was such a wonderful thrift store ! Complete with basement which would mimic a ‘grandmas attic’ !! Loved all the stuff you looked at . What treasures. Thank you for once again sharing the joy in your lives . Everywhere one looks in the world of A& C there is gracious beauty to be found. You bring such a lift and a hope for better things to come, a reminder that beauty CAN emerge in such a world as is these days. ❤ Marilyn xx NJ USA

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you for watching Marilyn!

[@melissalambert7615]

Never go to the thrift store without a measuring tape. Could not agree more! Have a mini one in my purse for yard sales. That place had some lovely furniture! Love the little tabletop chest of drawers you found. Hello from sunny Oregon US.

[@KathiKetcheson]

I saw so many things that I wanted to buy!

[@kaye8231]

I was completely amazed that both of you walked past the trunks - some of them rosemaled - in the basement without even glancing at them. A Norwegian-American would be DROOLING over them!! 😊

[@melitaclary3308]

I came here to say this ! I’m Norwegian-American and he put back the rosmaling and walked past the trunks 😅

[@gillianholter-hovind2367]

Because most Norwegians have these in their homes already. That’s why there are so many in the thrift store!

[@kaye8231]

@@gillianholter-hovind2367 that’s amazing!

[@susanteminsky1078]

LOVE this so much! I would go anywhere with you guys in your Beetle but the thrift store is amazing!

[@donnajenkins4918]

I love thrifting - so much fun - thanks

[@ozgirl45]

I love these visits to a thrift store as there are such lovely things to look through. Just as well it’s too far for me to go there!

[@pamamand8348]

Oh that spinning wheel ❤❤❤

[@foxbanefibers1341]

Three questions: 1) Does the Beetle have a name? (I swoon every time you drive it!) 2) Where did you find the Beetle pillow in the back window of the car? 3) Please tell me you took the blue box home! It is just so lovely! Makes me want to make a trip to Norway just so I can buy it! 😂

[@GreatKnitting]

Hello Arne and Carlos, I just want to say you bring such joy and beauty into the world. Thank you so much. ❤️🧶🌎

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you so much for your kind comment!

[@GrandmaY]

Thank you soooooo very much for stopping by the spinning wheel in the thrift shop! It is beautiful and it probably would have followed me home. . . They are amazing technology and I love working with them. Learning to spin gave me a wonderful source of meditation, and I try to do some every day. Good luck with your furniture shopping! The older pieces have so much character. See you in September! Yvonne p.s. Doug just casted on his first sweater & is knitting his 4th or 5th row of ribbing now.

[@nancywagner1510]

I second the thanks for showing us the spinning wheel, but I’m greedy! I wanted to see the one in the basement as well!

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome!

[@stitchersdelight]

Welcome back, that's a great thrift shop. Thanks for the tour !

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you for joining!

[@charlenerichardson2623]

My husband just finished this puzzle and I thought of Arne right away! It’s all Nancy Drew books! I took a pic of it but have no idea now to send it to you

[@tinaquintana9810]

I had a 1964 beetle same color as yours. No roof rack, that’s so great. It popped out of gear every time I hit a bump! Was so much fun to drive.

[@irenemacleod5140]

Hi guys I just loved you coming out the biggreen doors the thrift store had a lot of stuffthe drawer was a nice find you could put a lot of things in it I ne very leave home without a measuring tape lol well take care see you next time

[@judiemjacobson4613]

I love thrifting but now I don't drive so I can't do it anymore. That was the most fabulous store. Thank you for taking me along

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you for joining!

[@phylham1565]

So fun watching your process for shopping at the thrift store. Enjoy your treasures.

[@58calangel]

I loved this episode. My mom and I have always been great thrifters and as I look around I see so many things we bought for such great prices. Because we are in California they don't have as many antique or older items as you find at your thrift store. I could spend hours in the one you showed us. I for sure would have bought the porcelain hanging angels that were shown at 10:24. Please do more of these videos. I love the box Arne bought. Freya is gorgeous as always!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you, we are planning some more in the future so it is great to hear that you enjoyed it.

[@sunidollfun]

Dollhouse-scale toilets are hard to find. Hope you grabbed it. lol!

[@inezwalsh2584]

Love the Spinning wheel,like Kate’s…

[@JaneDawsonWiley]

Another great video. It is always fun to see you at the thrift store and the drive there looks beautiful.

[@ARNECARLOS]

It is a scenic ride.

[@Stettafire]

Awe, poor Freya! Little darling! 🥺 I have two black dogs. Big Labrador and a little girl like your Freya (but a cocker spaniel). They both don't like the heat. Poor dears ❤

[@bernicemcgowan6657]

If you ever came to my tiny community I would take you to our Free Store ( shoplifting is encouraged). You can get some really cool and useful stuff for absolutely nothing. But I am totally in awe of your thrift store!

[@ARNECARLOS]

That sounds like an fun store!

[@cherylg.813]

Happy Sunday! So fun to get to go thrifting with you today. I received my Norwegian wool from Rowan for my 2024 Christmas stocking! Thank you for another beautiful pattern. Have a wonderful week! ❤❤🤗😘

[@ARNECARLOS]

You as well Cheryl!

[@sunidollfun]

That miniature shop scale at 7:39 is very cute!

[@ARNECARLOS]

It was very nice

[@Barons.knitting]

I found your channel in 2022, and I have learned so much from your knitting tutorials. I was really just learning the basics of knitting then. Now your show has become a comfort to me if I'm having a bad day I put you on and everything seems a little brighter. I became a member today because of this. Can't wait to see all the extra videos and such ❤

[@ARNECARLOS]

Hi, thank you so much for this kind comment!😍😍

[@irishknitter17]

Spinning wheel and winder? You’d never find it here. I’d love to find something like that. I love thrift shops

[@LindaLandsverk]

Beautiful glassware! And the rosemaling box was amazing. My husband's ancestors were Norwegian from a place called Landsverk. That is also their last name.

[@lezlierussell2834]

I absolutely love your vintage VW Beetle!

[@rachelgollub2924]

Ooh, Arne's taste in furniture is so much like mine! I got a very similar desk with a rolltop and cubbies a few years ago at a thrift shop, and it's the best thing ever. And I saw a stack of plates that are in my wedding china pattern at your store!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Wow, that is a coincidence.

[@louisemaher2688]

I love that Volkswagen. If it takes 6 minutes to go downhill, how long does it take to get back home uphill? I use to drive one. 😂

[@ARNECARLOS]

About the same.

Ur Thrifting videos are entirely too short, you don’t exhibit the thrift store well at all. People want to experience the store and it’s treasures, not just your goal purchases.
