  • This is the first episode we filmed for our UA-cam channel. It feels like a decade ago now, and this truly was the start of a wonderful journey that has resulted in this amazing ARNE & CARLOS family. This episode has never aired before.
    We have talked about this episode several times before, and have always wanted to share it with you all. We wanted to upcycle an old table to make candleholders from the legs. This is a fun DIY carpentry idea and if you have old furniture lying around, maybe you will get inspired today!
    Thank you all for following us over the years and also for supporting our content! Here is a blast from the past.

    Love this video so much! You two are so adorable working together. Definitely going to be looking more closely at every table and chair leg from now on. 🤔 Such a fabulous way to upcycle and make new treasures out of old treasures. Especially special pieces with sentimental value that are now damaged. Nothing is wasted. Brilliant. ❤

    I loved this, and seeing the old days when CArlos could use matches safely! This is a great idea which I am going to pass on to my brothers who do a bit of wood turning and stuff. No table will be safe now! Arne you're sooooo STRONG!!!!!! xxx

    That was a real treat, to see the beginnings of such a fun series of instructive videos. I freaked out, though, when Carlos put the hot match back into the matchbox….or at least it looked like that was what he did. We all know what happened when he did that before! (or, well, LATER, but you know what I mean)

  • @lisas7025

    What trooper's you were! Often, the beginning of anything is rough. I can't imagine there could have been a less attractive, more chunky piece of wood to try and recycle, but you held strong and persevered. So serious! I'm glad you decided it was okay to laugh and flat out honestly state when things are off. The personality was there. Arne - selling it to the end! Carlos - oh so helpful! Another funny one for the books! Hope you are enjoying your break, and hope to see you Sitting for a Bit soon!

    Okay, you two are so cute, I’m surprised you’re not mobbed on a regular basis. Arne is very prominent in this one. He usually hangs back at the beginning and then emerges. How wonderful is it to see your beginnings, and see how far you’ve come. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    This was sooo good to watch. I loved your intro about the table leg ‘find’ and died laughing when Arne pulled out a hand saw to cut the table leg. I thought you’d be there for an hour chopping through that monstrous wood leg. I so appreciate your ease and laughter in your Pilot and think it’s only gotten better. 🙌🏼

    I have made my own candle holders in the past. When I was in the 8th Grade, each female student was required to make a candle (for a grade). I may have enjoyed the process, if I could have been left alone. It is hard to think when so many people are ordering you around (whether they know what they are doing or not). Bullies made Public School no fun at all. My candle did turn out beautiful, despite those who tried to distract me. I received an A+.
