Your Christmas style is simply gorgeous and completely timeless. Thank you for sharing !

[Tout-Le-Monde]

Your village is like a magical land!! Out of a fairy tale story.

So lovely. Would you show us how you make those bird treats? The square ones with seeds in them?

[joannbaumann]

True beauty without materialism. It reflects the spirit of Christmas.

I also love the "snacks" for the birds.

My grandmother in Finland had a very special paper Christmas star she would put in the window. Her house was in the countryside and when we visited at Christmas it would be the first thing we would see glowing in the dark winter night. ♥️

I really like the idea that some decorations are used to feed the local wildlife. 😀

That is so beautiful, here in the states Christmas has become so commercialize we forget the beauty in simplicity!!! Food, family and the joy of watching children opening gifts and giving thanks🎄

[Annie-gnfp]

Thank you Maria.
Best wishes to you and your husband.
Have a lovely wintertime.
Many greetings from Germany.

My parents had a Christmas decoration that made angels spin when the candles were lit. They got it from a Swedish store. I loved it at a child.

In the Philippines we have something similar to your paper stars called "parol". It's our traditional Christmas star. The only difference is they are made of colorful paper instead ( red, blues, gold, etc...)

[deborahmcginnis]

Your home is so lovely! I love the Swedish/Scandinavian style. Here in the USA we can get a little gaudy with our decorations.
You are so thoughtful to think of the birds and provide treats for them also. That is what the Christmas spirit is all about...showing love to all God's creatures.
Thank you for this beautiful video. Hope to see more like this soon.
Merry Christmas!

I am named Maria as well. I live in the US in Topeka, KS. I LOVE you and your vlogs so much. Swedish traditions are simple, , heartfelt and beautiful. I love the window decoration idea! Simply gorgeous! Thank you for sharing your life with us...especially those of us in the US. Our country is so focused on ourselves and our self importance, it is nice to see how other countries live such better lives, because their focus is on living a good life without all the “things” Americans feel are important. If it weren’t so cold there, I would love to live in Sweden. Perhaps it’s because my ancestors came from Switzerland and part of them lives in me. 😉

Oh my gosh, thanks for showing your golden thing at 3:39!!! We had the same one in my childhood in Germany, I did love listening to those little metal twix‘ hitting those two bells as a child. That was my sound of christmas.... And yes, we also have those paper stars in Germany! God yul!

Sweden is SO beautiful in the winter .. I love how you use so many natural elements to decorate with . Your home is just so charming and pretty

My grandmother came to the United States from Sweden when she was 4 and lived her whole life in a tiny town in Northern Maine named Stockholm. The Swedish people were given land by the State of Maine, where they settled and farmed. Every year they have a Midsommer's Eve festival to celebrate the traditions of their Swedish customs, heritage and homeland. 
I am so pleased to have found your Youtube videos!

[Yatri]

Beautiful, each and every frame looks like a painting done by a painter.

[lorigiberson]

Simply beautiful! I especially enjoy the paper stars...

[knowthyselfandyoullknowthe]

An absolute winter dream :) :) So beautiful, just the right amount of elegant decorations...amazing, love it !

[sylvan]

God Jul, Maria. I love all the wonder you have shared here. It brings me so much pleasure to see the snow and cosy light as well as the very lovely paper stars and beautiful homemade wreath. Am also loving the kind tradition of feeding the birds over Winter. This has really lifted my spirits. Thank you so much x
