Vlogmas Day 3 | My Mug Collection | A Finished Object

[@jenniferbundesen850]

Oh my gosh, so sweet that James sent the video. That brought a smile and made this mama heart feel warm and fuzzy. ❤

[@bythelakeside]

Made me happy, too!

[@abbywelker-HaciendaHomemade]

🥰🥰🥰 Love your mugs!! I also saw that Anthro mug this fall and bought 2 of them. 😆 I've been watching your Vlogmas videos for years and I feel like your beautiful home is so familiar to me and very much a special part of my Christmas festivities! THANK YOU, Sandy, for bringing your magic into our homes!!!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@bythelakeside]

Thank you!! 💕

[@annahase]

Happy Vlogmas Sandy! What a lovely urban book you showed. A wonderful practice in mindfulness! ☺️

[@dominiquebilodeau2225]

Grinch cups at McDonald’s!!! 😱 Now I have to go for a coffee run ❤ 😂

[@christinegiroux8471]

Hi Sandy, I love the paper advent calendars best! If you tape it to a sunny window, you can see the light coming through the little open windows- so pretty!

[@barbarapregger8526]

Well done on finishing your Stockholm hat, Sandy🎉! I really did not enjoy knitting the decreases, either. I just put the "not so pretty side" to the back of my head 😅

[@karenlowes7802]

Ooh, so lovely. A nice selection of this and that. Thanks Sandy for your efforts❤

[@Wolhobby]

Your mug collection is gorgeous. I enjoy seeing it every year.

[@bythelakeside]

Thank you so much!

[@heatherleask3752]

Always love your videos. Yeah James! Glad you got in on the action. Looking forward to seeing your family reconnected for Christmas.

[@jeaninegunn4118]

Thanks to you in last year's vlogmas I now use the PC eggnog powder on my frothy coffees too - it is delicious!!

[@carolrodenbeck2381]

Thanks, Sandy, for another cozy Vlogmas. Your dinner looked great! Your collection of holiday mugs are beautiful and so fun!

[@JudyRomagnoli]

I love to go out and check out nature in the winter. It snowed a little bit last night. When I woke up this morning, it looked like powdered sugar was sprinkled all over my lawn. It was beautiful. 😍

[@meliabellaknits6835]

Not James sending you the advent opening video! Oh I teared up! What a thoughtful guy! Your hat is lovely and just in time for the colder weather!

[@bythelakeside]

@@meliabellaknits6835 I know!!! 😭💕

[@zm3839]

Now I have ordered holiday mugs for my family for Christmas:) lol

[@meaghan81]

Oh my goodness what a great day for you! James at the end, that brought tears! What a sweetheart. Glen coming in twirling, and flippin the bags, I've noticed. He's even more fancy this year lol lol

[@bythelakeside]

@@meaghan81 he is very extra!! 😂

[@meaghan81]

@bythelakeside he is!! 😂🤭

[@marianeill9360]

Thank you!! LOVED it!!!!

[@sallycooke6498]

How sweet to see James opening his advent. 😊 A lovely vlog as always. Hope Camden is enjoying his new haircut. Xx

[@bythelakeside]

Thank you!

[@lesliegb5543]

Hi Sandy I always looks forward to your vlogmas. I’m watching from Southern California and I love seeing your beautiful winter weather since we don’t get that here. It puts me in the Christmas spirit. 🎄💕

[@denisediauto9618]

There is something special about drinking your coffee, tea, etc. in a holiday mug. You have a nice collection. I purchased the Simple Abundance book on your recommendation a few months ago. I love the book so much I have bought 3 copies for my friends, 1 for my daughter-in-law and 1 for my younger son's girlfriend for Christmas gifts. Thank you for the recommendation! ❤

[@flourchylde]

I love McDonalds coffee, as well. Better than Starbucks. I also have an extensive Christmas mug collection. They are all by Waechtersbach and I have been collecting them for over 40 years. That Stella Fibres yarn is stunning.

[@mistyblue5312]

Here’s hoping you’ll get to 20K by Christmas!!! 🎉🎉🎉Pls like, subscribe n share! Love you Sandy. 🥰🇨🇦

[@CamijoKnitDesign]

Now I had to go see all the Emma Bridgewater mugs online........ New Christmas wish has been made :-) My mom heart went so soft when you shared James' video, that was so sweet!

[@bythelakeside]

My heart melted when I got the video! I mentioned it last week and it just popped up last night in my messages. 😊

[@TheWaywardSkein]

Your mug collection is lovely

[@bythelakeside]

@@TheWaywardSkein thank you!!

[@catherinecunningham7126]

I’ll have to look for mugs with lids or just drink my tea a lot faster I guess! 😂 That was sweet of James to video opening his adventure. 🌻🎄

[@annacastanedarojas8040]

Sandyyyyyyy!!!!!! I have my twizzlers and Diet Coke ready!!! Hiding in the closet from my children, as usual. Aaahhh, this Xmas tradition is a fave. Merry and a Happy to you and the whole familia. With love, from dirty, gross, yet cultured Brooklyn, NY ❤😂🎉

[@lisbethbula2195]

Glad you took time for yourself!!

[@sharayale]

Thank you Sandy for your videos! I watch you from Viena in Austria just today...tomorrow from Budapest and the rest of the vlog from Ibiza, Spain the place where I live 😘😘

[@bythelakeside]

Wow, that’s exciting!!

[@allycat5820]

We miss James not being there. But...he will be soon!! Enjoy your stitching.

[@SunshineLeclair]

Hi Sandy, great to see you again ;) Thanks for sharing! A fellow Ontarian lol, Donna

[@cynthiadelaney6784]

Love that James made an appearance!

[@donnawelch3548]

Nice hat. You will enjoy wearing it. Love the family advent treat openings each night. The Urban Nature Everyday book sounds wonderful. Do you recall where you got yours from? Amazon has it for a ridiculous shipping cost and the Indigos here (Alberta) are all out of stock. I'm thinking my adult boys would love it. Thank you for sharing!

[@bythelakeside]

@@donnawelch3548 thanks! I got it from Amazon and had free delivery.

[@lakeviewchicachicago2042]

Hi Sandy! Could you discuss what equipment you use to film? Christina mentioned that you suggested equipment for her to use. I have a big trip planned next year and welcome tips. 😊

[@bythelakeside]

@@lakeviewchicachicago2042 we both just got a new camera for vlogging. It’s the Osmo DJ1 camera which was recommended to me by Emma of Woolly Mammoth Fibres.

[@darlenewatkins4999]

LOVE all your mugs!! I sadly couldn't get the gingerbread house mugs at my local Anthropologie. :(

[@KathyLever]

Sandy, I just started following you and I’m really enjoying your Volgmas content! For those of us new to your channel could you share a little bit more about yourself what part of Canada do you live? More information about your shop. Thanks from Florida but soon back in Halifax NS for Christmas!🎄🎄🎄

[@bythelakeside]

@@KathyLever sure, I will in an upcoming video. I live just a bit east of Toronto, a few minutes walk from Lake Ontario.

[@Tinkergrumpybuns]

I love mc cafe too. I have to see if they sell in store bc hard to find here.

[@itsrainingcrafts]

I love your hat too btw

[@kellygalvin8798]

Hello from Iowa, USA! I just started watching vlogmas last year and yours was hands down one of my favorites! I have been searching for a good set up for making espresso and your machines look perfect!! Mind if I ask what they are?

[@bythelakeside]

@@kellygalvin8798 thank you! I think it’s called the Breville bambino (or bambino plus??) and the Breville grinder. 😊

[@kellygalvin8798]

@bythelakeside thank you! That's what I thought!

[@knittylynnie]

Even though I also have a kid in college, for some reason it makes me sad not to have both boys opening their advent calendar at home !

[@bythelakeside]

It is a little sad! ❤

[@DianeWilliams-g9e]

You have so many wip’s , why a new one? Finish the ones you have!! ❤️❤️

[@bythelakeside]

I actually don’t think I have many wip’s that I want to work on right now, and I’ve recently finished quite a few projects. Knitting for me is about enjoying the process, so why not cast on something that will bring me joy?

[@kathythomas4839]

Love your Santa by the front door! Where is he from?

[@bythelakeside]

He is from Michael’s! 🎅

[@itsrainingcrafts]

I keep forgetting your sons name is Camden my nephew also has the same name
