▷ MY SWEDISH CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS | DECORATING MY HOME | VLOG #24 

Aww thank you Kristie, that is so sweet of you! Warms my heart!!

We would also like instructions for making the square feeders. Last year we filled cookie cutters with something similar but ours was too crumbly. The paper stars are beautiful. My children enjoy watching your channel with me.

@@mikel4510 thank you so much!

It looks like they were set up in cartons - not cut in a baking pan.

You took the words right out of my mouth!😊 The oats were kind of fashion in the 80's&90's. Love that particular star. We use it too in Netherland.

I totally agree! Where i live in America is NOT magical, haha. But I started using these christmas star lamps to make my house feel more Swedish. It really helps! My neighborhood doesn't even do Christmas lights!! Grinches, all of them!! :(

Where can you get the star lamp you put in the window?

@@gingerhipszky228 ikea if your not in scandinavia i guess :) Here you can buy them almost in every shop around chrismas time.

@@saxorsaxofon88 Thanks Sebastian!!

Thank you Annie, wish you the same, hope you're having the best wintertime! many greetings back to you!

So true

Me too!

And me. 😘

Me, too. They remind me of something my grandmother taught me to make as a child. We would melt suet into molds and mix in seeds, or coat large pinecones with softened suet and roll them in seeds. The fat gets very firm but not rock-hard in the cold, and it’s extra calories/energy for the little animals.

Me three!

...and all winter, not just Christmas. So sweet.

We too had one of those spinning angel cherub candle decorations growing up (wayyyy long ago!) - I used to love how it chimed and thought it was so cute. I am going to ask my mom if she still has it! :)

Its called Änglaspel

Now you can buy these from China. Without the soul or the quality. Stop importing pollutive christmas rubbish!

Same!

I have two of those - one large, painted wood, and one small brass one.

in the south of germany as well :)

I see candles in the windows often in the central USA where I am. ☺️

When you’ve lived in different countries as I have, you’ll find that in each one, the citizens are all focused on themselves. That should not surprise you. Don’t get caught up any more in the whole Self hatred crap that some espouse. I was lucky enough to not just visit other countries but to also go to their schools in elementary school, so I got a greater sense of how people really, truly feel about themselves, their country and other countries. And guess what? They all think that their country is the greatest. And they’re not embarrassed about it, nor should they. I think every citizen of every country should think that way about themselves. Also, don’t buy into the notion that everyone hates America and Americans. They’re not fixated on us, but when asked, they might mimic some opinion but mostly they’re fine with us. And many Europeans rightly remember that were it not for huge amounts of money and many, many lives devoted and sometimes lost in both World War I and World War II, without us they might be speaking German now. Many want us to continue to prosper if not for any reason other than outside their own country and surrounding neighbors, American is one of if not their biggest single market for their products. And they are happy to enjoy many American inventions (like the Internet, and RU-vid, lol).

@@Happybidr That's a refreshing and different point of view that I hadn't thought about until I read your comment. Our gov't is pitting us against one another at this point. When you typed your comment, the virus hadn't hit yet. Not that we knew of anyway. I will be so happy when this election is over. I have never in my life been so invested in an election as I am now but I continue to stay positive for the best outcome. I will be so grateful to have a sense of normalcy back and I will appreciate it like never before. Thank you for sharing your views on all of the topics you touched on.

PoppyCat Yes my wife and I got a beautiful star at IKEA last year. It goes up this week.

IKEA really did introduce the USA to big star lights. We now see them more often in the USA.

Aww, so sweet of you! I wish you the best of luck with your exams

Thank you so much!☺️🙏🏻🙏🏻 And merry Christmas back to you!
