I feel like you have the best music. Many of the other Chanel’s I watch, have good visuals but I have to turn the sound down at times because the choice of music is unpleasant. With your music it ads to the rich texture of the visual content. Loved seeing Kitty out and about on your adventures. Enjoyed seeing how you picked out those tapestry colours as a starting point for the room. Thank you for creating this beautiful video.
@@charenteliving Bonjour, vous êtes des passionnés d' arts, de films et de musique, faites vous connaitre auprès des mairies, associations... réaliser des rendez vous musicaux, professionnels...continuez, et bravo la Finlande !!!
Your latest video has been an elegy for calm after a particularly stressful day. Thank you for continuing to delight us with your sensitive eyes and ears. The room is so lovely, a special and generous space to receive your lucky friends. Cheers, gentlemen. 🙌😘
C'est toujours un plaisir de vous retrouver tous les deux et regarder vos vidéos, il émane de celles-ci une telle douceur... La musique qui accompagne les images est toujours superbe et en adéquation celles-ci. Superbe restauration pour la chambre je ne savais pas que l'on pouvait peindre du parquet flottant ça m'a donné une idée 👍j'ai le même parquet dans les chambres et je commence à en avoir ras le bol ! Continuez tous les deux, c'est toujours un plaisir de vous suivre et j'attends avec impatience la prochaine vidéo. Ah ! encore une chose, j'adore votre jardin méditerranéen aussi. Profitez bien de la France rurale et de cette magnifique Charente. Merci
The bedroom looks beautiful and what a clever idea to paint the ceiling a colour rather than the usual walls. Don’t seem to have got the normal symbol to click fir liking the video so I’m clicking the heart. Hope I’m doing the right thing.❤
...Great video!...The underground church was amazing....R & J you did a great job on that guest room...It's very peaceful....I would eat cheesecake in there and then I would fall asleep...😉😁👍
Lovely colours you used for the bedroom . Very nicely done and welcoming for your guests. The Câteaux house has the same colours as the guestroom, nice combination..
You have both done a fantastic job on the room very elegant love the pink ceiling. And the gold furniture.Also loved the church.And the charming village. You both have certainly made your home beautiful.🥰
Dont worry guys for not posting weekly, this is your life and we glad that you share it whenever you feel like it. Simply adore the light dusty pink you've chosen for your guest room (actually I am planning to use it in combination with a toile de jouy for my guest restroom with some vintage mirrors etc). What an amazing village! So lucky to live in this region. Love what you've done with the furniture. The golden effect is nice. I did the same with my grandmother's wooden carved hall mirror and looks like an old patina. Your guest room transformed from a 70s nightmare to an elegant dream! Products from producers market look yummy. Keep up the good work!
Always a amazing video from you guys. I always enjoy a tag-along video when you are out exploring. So nice to see you guys sharing a remarkable journey together through life. Your hard work is sure making a beautiful home.❤ the color choice for your guest room ceiling. Thanks again for taking the time to make a video and share😊
The spare room is fantastic, understated charm. I've noticed in the comments, people are addressing you as gentlemen. That's appropriate, as you two are very calm, and we all seem to like that. Such an escape from our lives, when we join you, on your channel. Thank you.
I like what you've done with the guest room, having a bit of fun with color and finishes. I do think some kind of trim between the pink and wall color would be nice, either a narrow wallpaper border, or narrow (not picture molding) wood border with a little detail. Base coat it red oxide (dull red) then paint it with the gold paint you used on the furniture. Use some fine steel wool to burnish it, bringing some of the red through. I love beaded molding, the light plays wonderfully on it. Sorry to ramble, my two cents worth of decorating advice. The video was so warm and summery and ever so interesting.
Hi Robert and Jyrki, The dark color on the ceiling will bring it down and make the room look smaller, the lighter color will raise the ceiling and open up the space much more. I love a good trip to an antique shop, a flea market (boot sale) brocante, and a good antique show. the upstate roads in the North East used to be dotted with them for miles and miles. Since eBay less and less is available on the market, shops have closed and the shows are very expensive. I can still catch a bargain online, and furniture on the local auction market can be very affordable. The finished room and the furniture make such a difference in the guest room. I'm sure it will encourage a lot of house guests in your future Mark & Scott
Hi Mark and Scott! So interesting to read of your antique hunting. Its amazing how the markets can change, peoples taste, thus shops closing etc.. Even in our area here, you really have to hunt for something beautiful, not so easy to find. Online is great for those smaller pieces!!
So good to see you both again looking so well and happy. I loved the soft pink you have chosen for the ceiling. Your adventures through the lovely old town are fabulous. I so adored all the wonderful marionettes. They're fabulous! I love what you have done so far to the upper floor bedroom. It looks lovely. The underground chapel is really unique and very interesting. Loved your final trip with your friends to the plant and cake shop. The previous evening meal and wine looked delicious too. Really happy you had company from your friends. They looked like really nice guys. Thanks for sharing your happy times. Best to you both always. I hope the sunshine lasts much longer.
You presented switch another well edited, creative video. The guest room looks wonderful and reminds me how creative you really are. That market and the cafe were just icing on the cake, pun intended. How I miss Europe and the lifestyle!
When you first said you were painting the ceiling I thought that's cool I've done that, then you said PINK and I thought they've gone mad, How wrong I was the room looks absolutely stunning, it's funny how you learn something new everyday, well done you your home is going to be beautiful
Thank you for this nice video which shows us the progress of the work in your Charente house. Nice walk in Aubeterre which we visited in the spring. I hope your friends enjoyed this lovely part of France.
Hey there! Just checked out your latest UA-cam video, and I've got to say, the color combination of pink and gold had me a bit skeptical at first, but wow, it turned out amazing once the room was finished! You guys really know how to transform a space. Your hard work and dedication truly shine through in every detail, and I'm so happy to see you enjoying the beautiful house you now have. You deserve all the happiness in the world! Keep up the fantastic work! 💖🏡✨
Your room looks amazing, so inviting and calm. I've stayed down the road from Tusson, at Fouqueure many times, but I never knew about the lovely cake shop. Next time! You have a new subscriber, and I'm so grateful for your videos. x
love your interior ideas but suggest you sand and use an undercoat for your furniture painting, particularly for metallic colours :) ... also a sponge brush is great for metallics as you get fewer brush strokes in your final finish. Loving your vaguely fin de siècle vibe overall :)
I saw you in fact intended to do another coat,I kind of preferred a see- through white,looked older,loved the room,so peaceful,your whole house is peaceful,you two are peaceful,I found you and love your being here and your company,thankyou guys,you are swaying me towards moving to france,I was thinking of it,more so now,whats your french like?
Thank you so much Michele for the lovely words. Our French is sadly more on the basic but we learn and talk as best we can, we should definitely study a little more.
You didnt put some protection on the floor when painting that gold paint,there will be fine splashes,always protect area around where you are painting,an old painting big cloth,by the way love you two x
Yes we were lazy in that respect as we knew we were going to paint the floor afterwards. But normally we are a little more prepared. Thanks so much for watching.
What is the color of pink that you used and what brand was it? I’m looking for that color pink for my bedroom in France and the only colors I found were the Liberon color that was too dark and another brand that was also too dark.
la chambre est charmante avec ces couleurs douces et reposantes. je n'aurait jamais osé peindre les meubles en doré et le résultat est très beau.
Merci Kathy!!

Very beautiful bedroom, very calm and cosy. Everything you both did was such an improvement from what you started with. Congratulations!❤

The room looks lovely. In the US we call that kind of a rounded ceiling coving or a coved ceiling. Love the color.
Oh great to have a name for the ceiling type, thank you!
What a beautiful room. It looks so calm and soothing ! A wonderful restful place! I love the ceiling ❤.
Thanks so much, it really is a restful space now!

Wowww this underground church is breathtaking … I would love to visit it … not for religious purpose, as I don’t have any, but it is amazing …
Definitely worth seeing for the feat in engineering!!
that room is soooooo nice
Thanks Michele!!
Great job on the room. Another fun video. 😊

Yes we were lazy in that respect as we knew we were going to paint the floor afterwards. But normally we are a little more prepared. Thanks so much for watching.
Try 5” inch skirting boards (base boards)- it’s more elegant
Oh will definitely take a look! Thank you!
It looks like an old Dusty Rose. It is a bit dark.
Maybe on the camera it didn't pick the lightness up as well, thankfully in real life its beautifully light.
What is the color of pink that you used and what brand was it? I’m looking for that color pink for my bedroom in France and the only colors I found were the Liberon color that was too dark and another brand that was also too dark.
Yes the Liberon is definitely dark. We went with a Dulux Framboise 2 - mixed at our local Mr Bricolage. It was the best option for us in the end.
@@charenteliving Merci! I will look for the Dulux color when I go back in a couple of weeks.
