I’m sorry that 99 people missed the opportunity to send you both Christmas wishes in a card. I wish you both good tidings, happiness and health in the new year. Sincerely.

[@Ntagati]

How appropriate that you lit the Advent candle for Joy today ... the look on Arne's face expressed sheer joy when he found the musical snowglobe. Thanks for taking us with you. XXXX

[@denisewessman1079]

Thrift shopping is a most at the holiday season. Nothing better than a vintage Christmas mug for your holiday beverage, peppermint mocha!!!!!

[@julbea]

I think I’ll watch this every year to get in the Christmas spirit

[@cheryljenkins9823]

I love that Arne wants the one that holds the most cookies.

[@blasebaker]

Love your sweater Arne. Thank you for taking us along with you.

[@dianalindsay804]

First Advent Candle - Hope. Second Advent Candle - Love. Third Advent Candle - Joy. Fourth Advent Candle - Peace Enjoy the Holy season which is here.

[@jenniferjohnson9335]

Silly folks--there is no Advent goodie on 25 December because that's when you get all the gifts! You guys are so funny in the shop! Arne eying the tinsel and Carlos hunting for treasures is just Advent gold! Thank you for sharing with us!

[@dianajohnson83]

It's correct to support charity @ Christmas so thrift shopping is a perfect fit

[@mywoolmitten]

"a lot of things that are plain ugly..." I laughed so hard Carlos - it's so true! For all the treasures, there's also not so much lol! Thank you for taking us Christmas thrifting (and that pink cookie tin is fabulous 😍)

[@deborahlee4941]

The look on Arne's face when he can't carry any more...priceless!

[@noidlehands2019]

Thank you for sharing. I always enjoy seeing other cultures and the their celebrations. Thank you for all of the episodes in December. I have all your Christmas ball patterns.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you for joining us for the Christmas fun!

[@taniabishop]

Loved this episode! Arne’s face lit up when he saw the snow globe and played the music and Carlos’s face lit up when he saw the pink cookie tin.

[@ARNECARLOS]

We are glad you liked it!

[@bluegrassdreams2seams510]

I love learning morning about Norwegian culture! If I was traveling, I’m the one that want to be among the people, eating at local mom and pop’s, looking for artist’s shops, visiting the yarn and fabric stores, and a little tourist attractions. Seeing the ornaments reminds me of one’s my mom gave me one Christmas that hung on my childhood tree and now hang on mine🥰 Happy Advent! Cheryl

[@debs4520]

It's raining in the Bay Area, so I am sitting here enjoying my coffee and watching you find all the goodies that become your treasures. This put a smile on my face. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Stay safe from the rain!

[@barbarajanerobinson1428]

The guess I have on the tray is a beautiful picture of the VW Beetle with a 🎄 tied to the top remembering the fairytale based on a true story of the "VW Beetle and the Two Princes in search of the Christmas 🎄."

[@kathieklee3903]

May you be blessed with a holy and happy Advent season. On Thanksgiving Day, last Thursday, one of the things I was so thankful for, is having you (Freya included!) in my life.

[@ARNECARLOS]

❤️😊

[@jimmyjimenez7311]

I❤ it when y’all go THRIFTING !! ❤❤❤❤.

[@annemack3357]

Thank you for taking me l did enjoy very much . Take care now . 🦋💐💐

[@donnastubbs9525]

This was so much fun! Thank you for taking us shopping with you.

[@hhall3533]

Love that stitching book Arne found! I love to decorate with Norwegian decorations. I cross stitched a table runner that I purchased in Norway when I was on a trip there years ago. LOVE that candleholder.

[@ARNECARLOS]

❤️

[@amandamurray299]

I love the snow globe and love the pink cookie tin. I like the traditional looking tins the best.

[@user-mw3uv3ii5n]

Getting in the spirit now - Dec 2/23

[@alexastirling4385]

The straw garlands were lovely. Thank you for sharing your thrift shopping with us.

[@carolmeyer4461]

You rescued my Christmas! A grateful thank you.

[@cathyfield4765]

Bless you this Advent. I have always enjoyed the Advent videos, thank you.

[@Serenity-fu8xz]

Oh my goodness I love both of you guys so much you make me smile. Oh I can’t get enough of you guys. Thank you so much for all these incredibly awesome episodes.

[@marciafarrell1180]

Thank you, both, for your lovely videos and for sharing your holiday traditions. This year is a bit difficult because I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer in June, but your videos help bring a little joy into the season. Thank you.

[@suedale1865]

Oh my you are both brilliant at Thrift shopping in a magical thrift shop I look forward to seeing the corn dollies garlands & stag & battery candles in your 7 candle holder

[@ARNECARLOS]

😊

[@sandrazboinski6473]

Christmas cards are a tradition that I enjoy. I belong to two on line book groups and participate in their exchange plus family and friends. Merry and Blessed Christmas season.

[@cheryldeville9211]

You've definitely put me in the Christmas mood! 🌲❤ I can't believe that you find your Christmas balls in all the thrift shops you visit! Who would give away such beautiful knitted balls?! 😲 In North America we talk about "the thrill of the hunt" looking through the ugly stuff and delighting in finding a treasure! You've certainly found some great treasures! I love the Christmas tree stands that you discovered and that pink cookie tin is gorgeous. Looking forward to the next video during this season of Advent. Much love, Cheryl

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you Cheryl!

[@mariac4602]

In the US, the third Sunday of Advent is Gaudate Sunday- for joy- in anticipation of thr imminent arrival of our Savior. May you both receive God’s true joy and blessings during this season of hopeful waiting.

[@phyllisogis129]

Lovely to see the sun shining in as you browse through the thrift shop. Happy first Sunday in Advent 🌞🎶

[@rosemarygilman8718]

I'm with you Carlos. The color pink is fabulous!

[@annee4193]

Oh yes, the PINK cake tin to remind you of the year you went PINK 💕

[@ARNECARLOS]

True!

[@alexandrarebelcrafter9328]

I LOVE THE PINK BOX❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@davidheia8244]

Fun! Our family Christmas celebrations have always been a mix of Norwegian, Danish and Swedish food and decorations!

[@miabagley2202]

So enjoyed this episode and the glimpse of what Christmas time looks like in Norway.

[@audreyabbott7806]

A wonderful way to spend part of the first Sunday of Advent - thrift shopping with handsome men in red flannel! Looking forward to another beautiful season with you both!

[@karinvaleri7130]

I also recycle my cards, some too beautiful to discard. Being 1st generation Canadian my Norsk parents taught us everything Norwegian. I found straw ornaments at thrift store Luke 15 for 2.! Made into a wreath. My woodcarving hubby made Nisses this Xmas.. and now everyone wants them. My dad made Nisse ornaments and the Swedish horses with ROSEmaling on them. I live the 3 tired tin for gift giving!love groggy. My grandmother and mom embroidered Christmas linen table cloths with the stave church, bells, einter scene and table cloths . Krumkake making today. Test batch all for me lol. God Jul u 2!!

[@karenaskinas1135]

These thrift shops are amazing!

[@skihouse5757]

That was so interesting, I love learning about your heritage.

[@dragonknitter]

Arne must be a magpie at heart, liking the shiny things

[@AidaBoza]

Aida Boza . Thank you Arne and Carlos loved your thrift Christmas shopping ❤

[@zornjunctionyarncoyarn3259]

Love the thrift shopping for Christmas

[@jsparklies]

Arne, you are such a diplomat! Take the pink one! All the while, he is really not liking your choice of tins! LOL Maybe you should shop together, separately ,and show each other what you bought after you leave the store. That way, everybody is happy with what they've purchased. Mind you, I did really like the pink tin! It's one I would have chosen as well, Carlos! ❤🎅

[@chrislindberg3996]

Thank you for taking us along!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you for joining!

[@annee4193]

What a joy-filled First Sunday of Advent you both shared with us as you thrift-shopped 💖

[@carlenehall2979]

🤗 So many interesting things to see! I love the pink tin!🎄

[@sandykoenig1666]

This was fun, watching you guys thrift. Here in America we love to thrift also for Christmas decorations.

[@eileensecrest2185]

I am so glad you took those straw pieces. They obviously were woven by someone very talented. Thanks for the shopping tour, I just love your thrift store visits!

[@Appledoatz]

Love sharing the holidays with you!

[@gilliantangen3717]

I love going thrift shopping with you both ❤❤❤

[@katewhyte6274]

We have a tradition of woven straw items like the lovely garland, here in UK called 'Corn Dollies' . Really nice to watch you browsing and finding treasures. When we were children we used to light a candle for the four Advent Sundays, not sure why we dont now though, its a nice idea.

[@cherikappenman8668]

Love when you go thrift shopping! My husband and myself spent the month of July in Sandefjord. Couldn’t believe the thrift stores! They were wonderful. Couldn’t believe the pine furniture and the reasonable prices. So hard to contain myself but got my purchases all home. God July to you both

[@kdunlap3289]

You can make different outfits for the little elves on the warp thread stand for the different seasons. They don't have to stay Christmas-y all year.

[@orapronobis2149]

November 27 2022: I am so loving your paiinting on the door. As always I enjoy your podcasts/video’s. I am so happy that you are thrift shopping while I spend time also doing some Advent crochet socks. I am working on your Advent Christmas Ball. I see a bit of Santa collection. A dear friend of mine passed away on Thanksgiving Day of this year. Years ago and every year for Christmas she gave me Santa’s. She was not aware of the collection until I posted it one year. Its sad a happy that I will have this memory of her every year. Arne is such a finder with magazines.

[@tonithorn3811]

Thank you very much for the Christmas spirit!

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome!

[@daniellemeadows6965]

Hello Arne and Carlos, I've really enjoyed this episode as usual particularly the "chic matches"! Lovely thrift shopping guys and I loved the straw garlands and ornaments.

[@mistyblue5312]

This was so fun. I think u have really nice thrift shops in ur area.

[@ARNECARLOS]

We are lucky that way!

[@copperhousefarm4794]

I wanted the orange coffee cups with the reindeer on them. 😀

[@toniprutch8956]

Carlos, pink is my favorite color too!

[@gailmcelheny9593]

Perhaps you could find two slim pieces of wood and a crimping tool to close the gap in the pink cookie tin. I wish you a warm and joyful Christmas season❤

[@ARNECARLOS]

That is a good idea Gail!

[@salliehogancamp998]

I love the straw garland

[@carolinestagg6807]

I've ENJOYED this posting !!!

[@antoinettemccollum729]

I'm excited now......

[@sandra-xp4mk]

That was so much fun and I'm glad you purchased the straw garland, that was my favorite.🙂🙂

[@michelel3372]

I'm surprised about the lack of cards that you received. I still about 150 each year. I LOVE mail!! This thrift shopping was great fun, thank you for sharing. Safe travels! ❤

[@carmenmarialinne2650]

The pink must be Vintage for sure like 1950!

[@PinkSallyProductions]

I don’t celebrate Christmas but I am interested in how it is celebrated in other countries, so it was lovely to go thrift shopping with you, Tak! You work so hard on providing content for your KZbin channel and I’m looking forward to the whole of December to see you both. I hope you enjoyed Thanksgiving in the US a. Be well, Sally 🌹

[@ARNECARLOS]

We did, thank you so much Sally!

[@jennievpollard77]

i am looking forward to this year's advent series.

[@ARNECARLOS]

So are we!

[@jillfoster6369]

Oh this has been so lovely guys. I hope Arne gets the large cookie tin. Think he really wanted it. If he hasn’t I feel there will be another shop coming along. 🎄

[@karenstephens9859]

I just love you two! That is hideous!! Oh my gosh, so funny!! I agreed with Carlos. However the pink canister was great!

[@chocolatesmores6997]

I'll never get rid of your Christmas balls Arne and Carlos.

[@victoriasmith9334]

Loved the thrift shopping. We have lots of charity shops over here in Northern England. Great for sidfitng through lots of junk to find our treasures. I do have to say though... I loved the Christmas cookie tins that Arne selected. They would have been coming home with me!!!

[@lindachism7775]

Oh, what fun. Wait, I see a pair of old double blade ice skates. I had a pair just left me that when I was little. Everywhere you look, so many treasures. Thank you for take not us shopping with you. I loved this! 🎉❤❤😊

[@t.k3025]

Oh geez. Now I have to go to a thrift shop. I did just go to church bazaar and got some sewing goodies. You are fun, but remember to let a few things go, to let a few things in!

[@lizcollins7716]

Very interesting guys! Invest in long length matches & spare your fingers!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Will do!

[@mib7623]

I love thrift store shopping too and would have been thrilled with finding some of your knitted Christmas balls. I'm looking forward to your broadcasts throughout December. Greetings from Florida, USA!

Here in Germany we have also decorations out of straw. Even it is more traditional and kind of old fashioned. But I remember making straw stars in primary school.

[@ARNECARLOS]

They are so nice
