Thank you Susan, that’s what I said as well. I think it’s important, even if the new walls are already there, to create that sort of look. “Always has been there look” :)

Thank you Jay. Yes really happy with our new support crew! 🙏🏼✨🙌🏻🏰

Hehe Holly! I love pearly earrings. The wallpaper will be AMAZING! I just can’t wait! This will be an episode I am really looking forward too! The areas will shine ✨ Thank you for watching 🩷

Hello to you both! 🩷 Thank you for your lovely comment Jane. You are always welcome back and Tony of course. Your idea 💡 is great! Hope you are both well!!! 🩷

🐝🐝🐝😁

Thank you David! 😁 The Chateau just whispered, it’s okay, and she is looking forward to her new comeback ♥️ greetings to you 🇨🇦

Absolutely lucky we are! ✨ And they love being part of the channel now 😁 It’s quite funny! ❤️

@@Chateau_de_Londigny it truly is! They play their roles wonderfully, as though they've always been part of your channel. They are clearly enjoying it and working hard too! I envy that kind of serendipity, that is luck, or 'something' Denise 100%. I am thrilled you found them and they found you. Incidentally how anyone can still look as you do in the midst of it all blows my mind. ❤️🇨🇦

🙏🏼😍 thank you

Thank you Teepee, I hope you are feeling better again! The wallpaper will be up soon! I can’t wait! ✨🥰😍

Thank you Barb! 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

Sad to say some of the worst workers we have had have been Brits. In France artisans must complete professional training unlike UK where anyone can say they are builders. Denise and Bret seem to be so lucky with their team so relieved and happy for them all. They deserve it❤👏

We are really so lucky and the team is a blessing. Sometimes luck is the only thing that makes a difference. We wouldn’t have known who is good or not. We can only say, they are amazing and we can recommend them!!! ❤️

thank you so much Mo! 🥹♥️

Thank you very much. Yes can’t wait for the wallpaper either! 🥹♥️🙏🏼

Yes Louise, it’s really a lot happening and we hope to get a lot done before the opening in August. 🥰 🐝

🙏🏼♥️

Thank you so much! 🥰Can’t wait either to transform it all again. Thank you for following the journey. :)

@@Chateau_de_Londigny The Untouched rooms (knights room) could use a woodworm check and the furniture could use some waxing to help preserve it. Years ago washing old furniture with a damp soft cloth & weak black tea would help keep it's colour and the tannins in the tea remove old wax/dirt build up and help protect it. Then after it's been dried a bee's wax would be applied to keep the damp air off and make it shine. Damp wood is a favourite of woodworm and France has a huge problem with woodworm. Be careful of antiques that you bring in that they are treated for it before you bring them inside. The tiny holes in the banister that you were cleaning with steel wool are woodworm holes. It is so amazing that you have those untouched rooms, Looking at them I could imagine the meals and the chatter of battles won and lost and the plotting of future escapades. I am so impressed and amazed that you have so many untouched areas in your Beautiful Chateau. Watching you and your mother uncover the statues in the Garden, bringing them back to life, was wonderful. I can't wait to see the knights room cleaned, It will be a great respect to their memory. I'd be tempted to hold a medieval dinner in there in their honour. My father (master plasterer, carpenter and stone mason, WW2 Commando) was born in 1919 the youngest of 9 kids - we had a lot of very old furniture. Quakers on my mothers side - everything was made of wood (still is), made to last and made to be used. "If you don't use it you lose it" which is why it all needs repair. Leather was plentiful and cheap, cloth was expensive, any furniture with leather typically was for the upper staff, Knights, Kids, carriages. Good Fortune to you both, may you both be very happy together for many years to come in your new "Home" in France!

Fingers crossed! ☺️🩷🙏🏼

Sally 🩷♥️☺️

wait for the wallpaper! 😍🙏🏼

I’m there, just co ordinating all the stuff behind the scenes !!

🥰♥️ It’s not the Spa, it’s the hunting room ( will be available for functions and over night guests in the future) 🩷

Hello Karin, thank you for your comment. No the hunting room area is not part of the appartment. This is separated. Thank you so much for watching us since the beginning! Apart from the Spa we want to offer (only) three guest Suites and event space. High Tea, Functions, etc. Lots of Love to Norway! ♥️
