Stephanie, you are such a fabulous storyteller. I love the extra little historical details you include. It will be fascinating for you to show us how you actually do the room decor updates and repair projects as they happen.

That’s a lovely idea. If I do any room improvements over the winter I’ll try to make videos about them!

What a luxurious bedroom! As I get older, I veer away from the somewhat minimal white Scandinavian style that has been so popular and find myself in antique shops buying guilted picture frames and dreaming of opulent wallpaper!

Quite how you managed to film this without touching the pain au chocolat or drink the chocolat chaud is beyond me!! However, I loved hearing about this room. I really love that you sleep in each room occasionally. It's like having a little visit with the room, and I'm absolutely certain that the rooms appreciate it!! Lots of love and many blessings to you all xxxx

Stephinie you inspire me to get off the couch and start making my dreams come true , 🌺 thank you 🌺

This was a great video! I have always wanted dramatic, warm curtains and it's so fun to see them set up there! I also love the idea of a tea making set up in every bedroom. How very sweet!!

I love that everything has a story. 🐓Just beautiful. More is more. 😉Thanks Stephanie!🦚

That’s lovely to hear, thanks! I hope you have a lovely Sunday 😊

Wonderful video as usual. I love the way you mix old and new. The yellow curtains do bring “sunshine “ in, and your sewing is amazing. I like the way little imperfections ( like on the bed) do not bother you, I can see now that they are beautiful and add a story . I think a video on all the different hardware in the chateau would be interesting , I was surprised at the hardware when you opened the door. Thank you for a nice ending to my Sunday❤️

I love your chateau and everything you’ve done to preserve it’s history. I’ve always had a deep interest and admiration for old chateaus. The character, architecture, beautiful detail, art, history...a fairytale come true. Would love to visit next time I’m in France!

Adore you Stephanie so much my dear💞 I will becoming a patron very soon☺️ Watching you all brings such joy to my life

Great room and your presentation is so vivid, artistic and aesthetic! Love it! ❤️❤️

I am so enjoying your amazing vlog. I love your sincere passion & enthusiasm in being custodian of La Londe & how much enjoyment you seem to have in your chosen life. I hope to move to France from North America to become a Chateleine of a chateau myself in a few years time. You have inspired me. Thank you Stephanie. Mila

The quality of your decorating is wonderful - you are a perfectionist and it is so enjoyable to watch.

I can't believe you have the Springtime poster of Pierre Auguste Cot's painting in your bathroom. I bought a replica of that same painting over 2 decades ago as one of my first grownup pieces of art, and I've always been so in love with it. I find it to be so romantic, as it reminds me of my young love. It truly is one of my favorites. I find that our similarities are so numerous that it's almost comical, being that we grew up so differently and all the way across the ocean. I love that you just keep improving all the rooms of the Chateau, but still keep all their original historical charm. So well done.

Stephanie I love how you show respect to the history of your home. My heart smiles. 💟☮️

Another fabulous bedroom Stephanie. The curtains look amazing, well done to you! Thank you for sharing your beautiful Chateau with us. Have a lovely weekend. A Bientot!

Dear Stephanie, thank you for another beautiful "Sunday at the Chateau." I so look forward to each new vlog on the weekend as well as during the week. You are a true Renaissance woman with all that you make and do, from sewing curtains to baking to singing and art appreciation/historian/conservationist. I think it would be really nice to have more history, and some deep history, on Chateau LaLande and the surrounding environs. Plus I would like to see some areas of the Chateau that are not restored, but may rather be as they were long ago, cobwebs, rodentia and all. Thank you so much for all that you do, and for sharing LaLande and her many stories with us!

I will definitely add more history to my future videos. As for the untouched areas, I think that Halloween will be a good time to show those!

I love the bedroom set and the fact that it has a dressing table. That wardrobe is so sweet. It is totally you. I think you have a textiles passion, not just bedding. The rug is beautiful--I love the colors and pattern.

I love how you combine the old with the new.

Another brilliant video I really look forward to them. They are so informative and interesting and give me food for thought. DON’T STOP.

Stephanie you have a wonderful sense of design and color….the room is just beautiful. I love the history of the rooms and the chateau itself

Such a sumptuous room! Your so creative and such a wonderful historical narrator. I’m bingeing in Sept. 2022! I absolutely love/am addicted to your vlogs and the Château cast of characters. Mommy, Percy, Gerald, are a breath of fresh air, funny and full of love. I’m enjoying myself immensely!

My favourite programme! Thank you, Stephanie.

Your Wall paper matches my pajama pants. I was laughing the vid off and on.

Stephanie, your curtain game is so on point. The results are deliciously spectacular. Also, those mahogany furnitures (6:03) are to die for! I can not wait to see you renovate a room with those early 19th century pieces. I am sure that the outcome will be majestic.

I will actually seeing in La Lande next week! Woo-hoo!

Your fabric choices are sensational. I just love this room. Your decor sense is magnificent. And then there’s your brilliant personality. So thrilled I found your channel!

What a privilege it must be to sleep in such A beautiful room and especially with the little cherubs on the cushions XX

I would love a snoop around your attics,they must have been a treasure trove of stuff when you moved in,love your stories about how things came about at the chateau.looking forward to the next instalment x

Thank you for the tip about how to tone down the floor to ceiling wallpaper!

Love your tours!!! Thank you♥️sending love and health!♥️😘❣️

This video is such a treat - Thank you!

I love that you explained everything about the room. You are living a fairy tale.

Love the bedroom, you have done wonderful touches to make it so cozy. Thanks for sharing.

Rewatching and loving this again 🌸❤️

I just love your sensitive re-use of old fabrics to maintain the historic coherence. Am a total addict of old textiles, so am quite envious of your collection.

I love wallpaper and it really is probably why I love your chateau most, and of course your beautiful personality ... and the lalande gang!

I love the combination of old and new. Keep being brave!

I love this room - beautiful wallpaper & furniture

What a lovely room and utilizing your own bedroom suite is such a special touch.

No matter how big or small a house is it always needs something done, the bedroom is probably the size of my house footprint lol you certainly have your work cut out. Radiator covers would make a big difference Im sure you could get one of your many volunteers that carve to make something really lovely, perhaps that folds so that you can take it down when needed, and adding a foil back to the radiator will reflect the heat into the room and not the wall ... look forward to seeing what you do with the room in the future. x

Love how the furniture compliments the wall paper

Very lovely. Looking into chateaus to renovate as well and this channel is a great help. Your final product is magnificent and is a goal I strive to achieve.

that wallpaper looks amazing on video! the colours just pop!

Beautiful room and so romantic 💕

Gorgeous room and I love love love the curtains

Another lovely room and vid- thanks for sharing

Your sweetness lifts my spirits every time but your beautiful home gives me so many ideas....could be expensive! I better check my favorite thrift stores again! 😊

I am a tea person! definitely!!! very pretty Stephanie. Love the the heater cover idea!

Marvellous video. Although you show us the beautiful rooms in the chateau, and the changes and enhancements that have been made.....it is clear to me that you Stephanie have worked very hard to achieve all this. Having been a large home owner myself , and willing to do a lot of the decorating work myself, I know how much hard work it takes to get these lovely rooms done. You are certainly an all rounder, talent wise, and your obvious glee at being a chateau owner is infectious and charming.

Minus bathroom everything else u did beautifully bringing so much together. Gorgeous!!!

I look forward to your vlogs and updates. You have great taste and style. The room is gorgeous. Everything in the room seems to fit so well. You have a great grasp of colour and pattern. Very pretty.

Binging your videos during Quarantine. I think this is the most elegant bedroom that I have seen. I looks so chic! I would definitely want to stay here and feel like the lady of the Chateau for a night!

Thank you for the great decorating videos.

@0:38 yes during some renos this summer in our (very) petit manoir (haha) we slept in one of the ground floor (basement) BRs and used the bathroom to shower. It was great feedback! Guests may be too nice or polite to be totally honest. Even if you don’t own a chateau or estate sleep in your guest room/s or even fold out sofa to feel how guests do and best way to get ideas for updating.

I went to our local Walmart in Kansas looking for a electric kettle even asked for help to find them.....only coffee makers and no tea kettles except for stove top kinds. That kettle in the bathroom is awesome. The room is very beautiful and the paint trick on the walls works nice on toning down the wallpaper.

Beautiful job!

Love all of the history information!

The carpet in this room is stunning.

Absolutely adore your Sunday vlog. You also give us so many ideas for our own very little chateaus.. . My own home is a little crazy lol.. but it's my castle.. no matter how small... keep it up your home is beautiful.. and can't wait for you to tell us more.. about how the rooms were created. Thankyou x

Awww! So pretty! Thank you for sharing! That bedroom set!! It's gorgeous! (I love your parent's kind generosity!!) What is the view from that room?

I ate the chocolatine while you spoke.The room has so many georgous elements ,it just sighs harmony and serenity.May I suggest little têtes de lit for the kids room so they feel like royalty too

Absolutely love these videos! I would love to see the parts of the Chateau that are not yet done up. Would be really interesting to see the difference.

A little bit like a mirror in a mirror, I am sitting in bed, with a pain au chocolat and tea on a Saturday morning after a veeeery busy working week in Covid 19, and I feel so lucky to be in an Irish Tower house that was first recorded in 1557... I'm watching you in Château de Lalande, reading about Catherine de Medici on her chateau, from this Irish Castle and thinking about all the women through history who lived in these houses... Those who owned and those who might have worked here. Thank you for your beautiful content that cheers us up in these difficult times.

Thank you!

Thank you Stephanie, love the vlog as always, love your pjs, love love the Starck lamps. I too have a bed linen addiction, it overlaps with my, cushion, fabric,, ceramic, wallpaper,furniture addiction. Why limit yourself to a cabinet of curiosities when you can have a whole Chateau of charm. ( I also love alliteration) I love what you have done with the bedroom to balance the wallpaper with panelling . Thanks for the joy and inspiration

Lovely room! Such a perfect way to enjoy your chateau and as you said know what needs to be done or changed in each room. Love the history and all the stories of each piece. The wall paper is glorious and you did well in your designing the drapes and walls. Always look forward to this Sunday vlog and of course your other videos too. ~k

Seeing that Medici biography on the bed, and hearing you talk about reading it there, makes me truly wish that someone would write an historical novel set in the Chateau de Lalande! The chateau truly needs its own book, it's own story set in its misty past!

Lovely learning about the history of the Chateau, thank you Stephanie! The more history you share, the more I want to know. I subscribed and look forward to learning more. I am curious: what did the original bathrooms look like? I remember something about the french chateaus having beds in the bathrooms for ladies to rest after bathing. I just wonder if this was true everywhere in France.

I just lucked upon you and subscribed. What a treat!!! Gorgeous room and with your talented eye, I'm guessing it's no accident you're wearing pajamas that coordinate beautifully. Would you mind telling me who makes your pjs and/or where I might buy them? Thank you!

You are very charming and I admire your big project a lot. It functions because you are clever and effervescent with ideas. Compliments from Germany

The funny thing is that I lived my life in a Victorian mansion,a small one but a mansion never the less. I tried to decorate with As much as I could that was Victorian and Very liberal use of wallpaper… Very similar to what you have. Style that is not expense.I loved it. Today I’ve cleared out all of that from my mind and switched to a very Scandinavian type decor.. The main thing for me now is to have bright rooms White walls and bright furniture which in my case are shades of green, have taken the place of the Victorian antiques.

While I love to iron, you make my ironing go by in a snap while I watch and learn during these limited times. It would be interesting to see where you cut out those huge draperies as well as your sewing system, when you learned to sew and make valances, costumes, etc. I did enjoy seeing your fabric cabinet, “ I could stand here and look at this fabric for hours.” Ever so charming....

such a very interesting account! I really enjoyed it I look forward to the next room! We came over to Le Dorat last weekend.....two hours closer to your place than I usually am. One day I will book in and come visit and explore for myself! best regards Deb

Another great vlog, I have long wanted to get a peek at the bedrooms. Have a splendid week! 🍂🎃🍁

Stephanie, you are such an inspiration! I have been digesting all of your chateau videos. I am now a subscriber and avid fan! Please continue to do these room by room renovation details because they are so, very interesting and the fine point history details are amazing! I am going through to see but haven’t found the chapel renovations. Have you done this yet and I have missed it? I can not wait to see it! Also, can you share the author’s name of the Catherine De Medici you were reading? Love from America! Hope to visit one day!

just amazingly lovely and did I see an electric kettle in the bathroom? I can't begin to tell you how much I'm enjoying your vlogs. Thank you.

It's the first time I have seen my much loved painting "Springtime" by Pierre Auguste Cot, anywhere other than in my home. Feel the same about it as you do, star struck lovers, drunk in love. Enjoy your holiday.x
