Fun store, especially if you love Christmas of course. We just got married and bought our 1st Christmas ornaments here. The ladies working were very kind and helpful. Fun german, dutch, and even Russian collections. If you are looking for traditional nativity sets! read more

What a lovely place to go... everytime we have visit we take them to Solvang and ALL them love this shop... then we use the occasion to find some new stuff for our tree and some all year round elfs and gnoms... I also love the warm and friendly reception we get every time... it feels like Christmas every day... read more

After reading Yelp reviews, I had to see this place. Every year each family member gets a new ornament for our tree. When the kids leave the house they have 18 - 20 ornaments for their own place, to start with. If I had my way and a lot of money.... I would have left with 18 - 20 ornaments! It's a tight fit to walk through this little store, so I don't know that it would be any fun for someone in a wheel chair. Different trees are set up with different categories of ornaments. They have ornaments from all over the Viking/Scandinavian Countries. They have a great number of Nativity Scenes that my husband and I just stared at, but didn't dare buy. We saw many funny and cute items. I left with a pair of wooden shoe ornaments and a Swedish ornament. My son loves Russia, so we asked the ladies where Russian ornaments were and they walked us there, so he ended up with a Russian ornament. They also have the Russian nesting dolls, very cool. My husband even found an ornament (hardest person every year!) He really wanted a beer stein ornament, but they were out, if you know of anywhere, please let me know! My favorite thing was all of the Nutcrackers... I could have stayed in there for hours looking at each one of them. The ladies were amazing there and joked with us the whole time. They were so concerned if we were enjoying ourselves. Seriously wonderful staff there. Do you want to bring your unruly kids into this shop? NO! But if your kids can be calm and keep their hands to themselves, they will enjoy this shop. The prices are steep, but most things are handmade, from hand blown glass, to needlework pieces, to handmade wooden items (nativity scenes, nutcrackers, etc). Well worth it, and I would return again! read more

Christmas all year round! I have been going to Solvang since I was young and my family always stopped in this store. This last time I bought a couple of German nutcrackers for the house. The lady was really nice and talked to me about nutcrackers for 20 minutes (she told me how to tell if it is German and what to look for in more vintage models). Very nice and helpful. I am looking forward to buying another nutcracker from them the next time I am there. read more

I have always loved this store before, but I was disappointed with their inventory, today. Maybe Covid has caused them to have little choices. But maybe they need to get a designer in their store. The entrance and decorative garland on the building front looked old and faded. Today, I was especially looking for quality garland for my fireplace mantel, but found none in the store. Not even candles in the store. The string lights to choose from looked dated and also very few to choose from. If I was in the market for a Nutcracker or Nativity set, I may have been satisfied and made a purchase, but that wasn't my objective, today. I hope to see the store return to its glory. read more

Cool shop that's run by descendants of the Danish families that once settled in Solvang. They are a Christmas all year round Shoppe. They have high quality European ornaments and decorations and other cool trinkets. We only bought a postcard here, but it's a nice store to come and browse around. read more

I llllooovvveee this place. I knew the second I saw the Christmas tree in the window I was going to fall in love! There was every ornament imaginable!! Even 4 different kinds of pickle ornaments! I collect ornaments from every place I visit so this was perfect! I got a blue and White windmill. Love this store... Christmas in august... How couldn't you love it? read more

This store is great for finding a cute Christmas ornament for friends or souvenirs. The ladies working there are nice and helpful - and so cute in their Scandinavian outfits! I did purchase a few items, but really had to limit myself as there were many more cute items I wanted. A great little shop to visit! read more

Christmas year round? Of course that wins my heart!!! Cute ornaments and nick knacks.. picked up a Hand painted ornament for our future tree. This is definitely a good place to find any kind of tree ornament, and you can also find interesting souvenirs read more

"Hule Hus" is more apropos for Jule Hus. We visited the quaint town of Solvang two days after Christmas and it was indeed a lovely town full of interesting shops and happy tourists (including us). We walked by a store with Christmas trees in the display window and decided to pop in for a look. Jule Hus sold a variety of Christmas ornaments and their prices seemed reasonable enough. Our daughter had just gone to see the Nutcracker and we decided to buy three ballerina ornaments (@ $3.95/each) for her and her friend. We also bought a grape ornament ($3.95), a mermaid ornament ($6.95) and two post cards of Solvang (25¢ each). I sidled up to the cash register where I was happily greeted by a lady who could have been Mrs. Claus' twin. She was smily and friendly and proceeded to ring up the bill. The total turned out to be $56 and I was a bit shocked since I was expecting a lower price for all the items. I asked her to explain to me how she came up with the total and that it seemed a bit high for what I had purchased. She proceeded (happily) to do a line-by-line itemization of mathematical computation to cost and told me that their cash register was old and that it utilized a rather archaic method for determining total cost, thus the confusion but assured me that it was absolutely correct and that this confusion was very much the norm and confused other people as well but that it was completely and absolutely correct. The total still didn't compute and her nonsensical explanation made no sense to me but I didn't want to make a big stink of it so I paid the $56 - after all, it was "the most wonderful time of the year" and one certainly didn't want to come across as a bully of a Mrs. Claus look-alike. Later that evening, I reviewed the items I had bought and the total and realized that she had charged me twice as much as she should have. I don't know if it was intentional to over-charge me, especially since I asked her to review her computation but I am very disappointed that she insisted that her archaic machine and logic was absolutely correct when it clearly was not. I must admit I felt rather swindled by Mrs. Claus' twin. I hope she's rather pleased with herself for making double what she should have from me but I would like her to know that all she had to do was ask for it and I would have probably donated the $25 ('tis the season of giving!). I will advise that if you purchase items at Hule Hus, you should review the receipt at the cash register and if there are discrepancies, do not hesitate to ask for complete clarification - even if you may come across as an ogre bullying a nice little old white-haired lady who is a dead ringer for Mrs. Claus. read more

This year will be our 6th year tradition to visit Jule Hus and get beautiful handmade Ornaments. Thank you Jule Hus for making our Christmas memorable! read more

We came in here because the idea of a store that is dedicated to Christmas was intriguing. It has a ton of decorations and Christmas knick-knacks. Definitely a good place for those who are serious about Christmas. read more

Such a cute store. Learned a lot about the different decorations and where they came from. Very nice workers. You can tell they really care about their shop. read more

If it chimes, rings, chirps, shines, flashes, or just hangs around and is even tangentially related to Christmas or the holidays, you'll find it here. Whoo hoo! Christmas in June!! read more

My mother loves Christmas, traditions, and above all else, family. My sisters and I try to take mom and our daughters on a girls trip every year. When we go, we get an ornament with all of our names on it to hang on the tree that we all gather around. This year, we found our ornament here. Thanks to all of the kind staff for helping us find exactly what we were looking for and ESPECIALLY PAULA! Paula's talent and patience got all 7 of our names on the ornament that we will cherish every year read more

Beautiful store, their ornaments are one of a kind. If you love Christmas, or have a family member/friend that loves Christmas as well please do stop by here you won't regret it. My boyfriend and I stopped by this shop to purchase my mother an ornament and got more than what we bargained for. I believe her name was Carolyn excuse me if it's incorrect but we accidentally left our debit card behind and walked to a near by candy store, just as we were walking out she approached us to give back the debit card. We were in awe cause it was a warm morning and she took the time to walk a block or so to find us and return the debit card. Very kind people! I will always stop this cute little store. read more

One of the best little shops you will find in Solvang! They have so many ornaments and decorations to choose from. Furthermore, they are unique and fairly priced. I noticed another store carried some of the same things but 3x the price of what Jule Hus was selling it for. Love that this place is fair and honest. read more

A cute store owned for 42 yrs. by the Watts family, since 1967. All they sell here year-long is Christmas ornaments. We purchased a "gold plated" Solvang ornament designed by the owner's spouse with a picture of a Danish house ($14). I found out the first ornament for Christmas is the carrot, followed by the pickle. That explains all those fruit and vegetable ornaments you see in the store. A must visit when in Solvang if you like ornaments. read more

This was my favorite shop in Solvang. Filled with Christmas everything. The ladies that work here may be well into their 70s, but they do a great wrapping job! I absolutely loved the Viking nutcracker they had. They also had beautiful, unique Italian hand blown glass ornaments which I've seen retail at Neiman Marcus for $60-90 and they sold some for $25! I picked one up for my mom. Wonderful shop to take your time browsing in. read more

awesomepossum place... jule hus means christmas house... and that's right, it's christmas at this shop 365 days a year! :) i felt so nostalgic entering this store... seeing all these super typical christmas things that decorate any given house in scandinavia during christmas time... :) it was pretty exciting and i picked up a few ornaments and gifts. we even came back the next morning and got some more stuff :) the staff is super friendly and kind... great place to get christmas stuff from ornaments, decorations, stocking stuffers, as well as gifts... god jul! read more

Wow. These people are so rude! I purchased an item, they swept my card, and I signed. Afterwards, I wasn't sure if we got the item, so I asked my husband if he had it and in such a haughty tone, the lady retorted "Excuse me. You'll get your item when you pay. There's an order here." I'm sorry, but I already paid and there was no need to speak to me in such a tone. This place left a terrible taste in my mouth, to the point where I don't even want to go back to Solvang again. read more

The staff always ignores us when standing in line. Just now, as we waited our turn, a woman walked right past us and was assisted next. How can these people be so blind to us? Do I start cutting in line now? read more

AWESOME STORE!!!!!!You can't visit Solvang without stopping here!!!they have a lot of CUTE stuff!!JUST CUTE!!!!!! I got a figurine made out of corn husk (a mother and daughter sweeping:)))) for 15.00 ,a carved wooden horse for 9.95 and a small porcelain windmill for 4.95 that reads SOLVANG :)) HA..HA... A must as proof I was here:) oh and my son bought a pig made out of straw to use with his angry birds for 2.50:))) just cute!!! read more

Cool. Experience Christmas all year round! This store is like crack-cocaine for Grandmas. If you need to keep the old lady busy for an hour or two, bring her here. read more

This is a very cute store that has Christmas things year round! I absolutely LOVED it!! There were so many unique decorations, fun ornaments, and stunning nativity sets. As a huge fan of Christmas, I was on cloud 9! I got some great idea for gifts to go back and buy. I'm excited to visit Solvang again so I can go back to this store! read more

Charming gift shop with very unique ideas for Christmas. I definitely walked out of this store with some items!

An awesome Christmas store for people who are serious about Christmas decorations. Not kiddie decorations!! The staff is also serious. They are very helpful and polite, but VERY serious!! Always worth a stop. They carry the cool hand-made stuff that the chain stores won't touch. read more

Cute store. Christmas in the middle of summer is always odd, but then it's my favorite holiday. Nice selection of more specialty ornaments that are hand crafted or more "delicate". Of course, my toddler manages to pick out the wooden M&M figure that he must have. Reasonable prices. Bought three wooden ornaments for about $6 each. read more

A cute little store offering Solvang's Danish spin on Christmas. Nice staff, pretty good collection of ornaments. Word of advice: don't take small children with a propensity to touch and pick up delicate items in here!! read more

It's just our favorite place in Solvang. We never miss it. They have a lot of nice ornaments, some from Germany and other places. Nice selection of advent calendars. I hope this shop never goes away. I think it helps make solvang what it is. Love it here. read more

This place was so cool! I brought my aunts from Argentina to visit Solvang and they fell in love with all the cool decorations & the friendly service. Courtney even went as far as speaking Spanish with my aunts. THANK YOU COURTNEY! read more

We visit Solvang annually at Christmas time. Jule Hus is always a favorite stop. The staff is very pleasant and the ornaments are beautiful. I bought an angel topper years ago and this year, when she didn't light up, I called and they referred me to the 'warehouse' where a very helpful man was able to give me advice for how I might fix her and I was able to do it myself. With young girls who are obsessed with the beautiful angel, it was a huge thing to have her fixed for this holiday season. Thank you Jule Hus! read more

This store makes me so happy when I step through the door. Seriously is Christmas all year round! Being a person who collects German nutcrackers as well as authentic European Christmas ornaments this place is THE PLACE to go. This place has a good selection of different ornaments ranging from more traditional decorations to unique and some silly ornaments. Also each time I come here they always have different selection to choose from. I have made it a "mandatory stop" whenever I come to Solvang. You have to check out this place if you love Christmas. read more

Well stocked all year round, they carry a great selection of wooden pyramids, nativities, nutcrackers/smokers, and of course ornaments. This is one of my must-stop places in Solvang. The glass ornaments are ordered by the store months in advance and delivered as made so items available are always different. Recommended fir the mire traditional shopper. read more

We loved this store .....Not so good with small children but we managed their ornaments are very well priced and handmade...we loved it and the small cute older ladies that worked there it will be on our to do list every year read more

Cool place to shop, they had lots of hand made european style ornaments that reminded me of my childhood. The two ladies there were nice too. I don't know if I could ever work in a place like this though, couldn't listen to christmas music all year. But fun to visit read more

My favorite store in Solvang! I've been coming here since I was little and continue to come with my children. This store never disappoints. Great quality and authentic decorations. read more

BEWARE! THE SALES STAFF AT THIS STORE IS RACIST! Here is why: I came in, took a basket and started shopping. Once I was done with my choices, I approached the cashier. One of the sales women (heavy build, short boy hair) asked me where I was from. I told her that I'm Russian who lives in LA. She then said: "We just had a bus full of Russian tourists, are you with them?". I replied: "No, I'm not a tourist, I live in LA". To which her answer was: "It doesn't matter where you live, if you are not from this area, you are a tourist, you have to play by our rules, even if you are from the town 6 miles away - you are still a tourist". I was so shocked that I didn't reply. I was also surprised how terribly incorrect her definition of "tourist" was. Then she turned to another sales woman and said: "Haha, that was funny, not a tourist from LA". At that point, I was so insulted that I just turned around, left my basket full of merchandise and left. And I just want to clarify that what I meant was that if I live in LA, I OBVIOUSLY didn't come with the bus full of Russian tourists. They obviously don't live in the US if they came in a tourist bus - they are Russian tourists who live in Russia! Unless there are tours out there that discriminate and accept only Russian Americans, which I've never heard of. So, her presumption that I came with Russian tour bus after I told her that I live in LA was very unintelligent, to say the list. Unless you are LOCAL white American, this store is not for you. In my 16 years of living in the US, I've never experienced anything like that. And, from now on, I'll know that when I go from my house in Studio City to my work in Beverly Hills, I'm a tourist lol read more

This store is one of the few that remains after years and years of traveling to this quiet little town since I was a kid. The owners are very friendly and even more knowledgeable than most in town. They have a great selection of Christmas ornaments, nut crackers and Christmas pyramids. My family and i enjoy coming up here once a year to pick out a new ornament for our home. If you get the chance.... stop by and ask the owners to share with you some of the history of the nut cracker. read more
