About Julvärmen

A small Christmas shop from Sweden. We sell a few things that make December warmer, and we stand behind them after Christmas too.

How it started

Julvärmen started ahead of Christmas 2025.

The blanket and the paper cutter were what people bought most in the first season, so they are back this year, with better descriptions.

The candle bridge in the window

The symbol in our logo is the Advent candle bridge with seven candles. From the first Sunday of Advent it stands in almost every Swedish window.

We chose it because it means the same thing wherever it stands: it is Christmas in this house, and it is warm inside.

How we choose what we sell

  • Few things, well described

    Better two products we can tell you everything about than fifty we know nothing about. Sizes, materials and washing instructions are on every product page.

  • Things that get used again

    A blanket that comes out every winter. A paper cutter that comes out for every birthday. Nothing that ends up in a drawer in January.

  • Exact dates, not promises

    We give the last order date for each country. If we can’t make it, we tell you before you pay.
