Escape to the chateau with ’The Chateau Diaries’ 🏰

We share our life in this ancient chateau in the heart of the French countryside, and show you the diy, renovations, crafts, cooking and gardening that are needed to bring a home like this to life. It’s like a 21st century Downton Abbey!

  1. OSS 117 is France's answer to James Bond. Jean Dujardin made several comedies based on an OSS 117 spy (a bit of a Pink Panther undertones).

  2. The crayons were Dutch, that’s funny! Lovely that so many useful things have stayed behind for you. For me, the nicest thing was the little old Jeep, because that’s what I drive in… 😍
    Thank you so much for sharing the joy! 🫶❤️🫶

  3. That would be a great dressing screen. You can use those sheets as table clothes. Chandelier round glasses you can find a brocante.

  4. Fold the hankerchief like an envelope and fill with Pavlina's dried lavender. Put in the cupboards to keep moths away instead of mothballs.

  5. Phillip looked pleased as a peacock sitting on the sofa in its new arrangement in the room! And it does look so, so much better!

  6. Ça alors les amis! The house is almost furnished. How delightful and so many hankerchiefs. I quite like the armoires and the peice that Philip likes, was it his favourite? It's charming.

  7. Ye work well together. Philip brings the vision, and indeed his ability to visualise, and you Stephanie, you bring the life. Your idea to move furniture in right away and get the energy moving about the place and clear out the garden right-off are such beautifully feminine acts. We need both sides of the coin for it to function. "To create anything in reality is to put life into it". — John Ruskin

  8. What a lovely house & garden.Thank you everyone who has helped them move furniture and clean the garden.Looks so much better,can't wait to see what it will look like in a few weeks/months.Best of luck.

  9. Definitely keep the plant stand will be wonderful in the garden ❤the house will be beautiful when it’s done ,I especially love the garden .❤

  10. I love that you are swapping the La Lande and La Touche furniture around and finding perfect things for La Lande there.

  11. A chipped porcelain sink can easily be repaired using a porcelain touch-up kit or a waterproof epoxy putty. This DIY fix takes about an hour of hands-on time, costs very little, and prevents exposed cast iron beneath from rusting. Or it can be sent out to have it done professionally.

  12. Congrats again !!! I totally agree to place some items in & around as you start, to get a feel and be excited about each project. I have done the same in several rooms, too. hh: old land line telephone cord contains a heavy-duty copper core. It is handy for soooo many uses. My current clothes lines to dry laundry in the backyard is over 10yrs old and going strong. I also have 2 shorter ones for the side-yard that I have used for 12+ yrs. I keep 30 ft in the car for emergencies and to tie the trunk shut when a large furniture find doesn't quite fit. Is he maroon round item maybe a sewing basket??? ****Get the security system going soon****

  13. This was intersting, some fantastic finds. I am so excited to see this place grow and come back to life. Love the garden and the peace with bird song. And it was lovely you had a makeshift little picnic, so nice. It's already a very special place.

  14. The lacy handkerchiefs are great covers for lemonade jugs etc when outside to keep flies away & look elegant-:)

  15. I keep all my needles and cotton & sewing paraphernalia in a round Chinese container like that one! 🥰 Love these videos 😊
