Against my techy family's advice I signed up for NordVPN...in the nick of time before the UK shut down a lot of speech. I am still very careful, even though I live in the US, but i feel more confident and secure now. Thank you for the advert some time ago, I have at last acted on it. I have also cleared out my 'sewing room' that was uninhabitable! You give the best advice!!! Thanks!
😂👍
Stephanie, you should make numbered prints of your father's sketches and use the revenue to help fund the renovations of the chateau.
Wonderful idea!
I will buy one !
Good idea but keep them at a limited number. eg 50. Once you start getting into large numbers it becomes more "mass produced" and loses the exclusive art feel
yes! Sell like hotcakes, easy to post.
From Australia this is a good idea but the run would need to be bigger with 500,000 followers.
It is very clear your Father absolutely adored his daughter ❤❤❤
It is impossible not to love Percy. What a star!
Is it possible to find a young man photo of Percy?? With his mischievous blue eyes he still is quite the looker. We already know Mummy is a Stunner. ❤
What a lucky, chance meeting with Isabelle on the plane... Percy is a wonderful asset to the videos! 🦘
I feel like your father’s memory is being appreciated and admired by hundreds of thousands who never knew him in person but feel like they do in very special ways now! I love how you treasure your whole family, Stephanie.
I can’t believe how much your mama looks like her mama, that’s so cute❤
And you look like your Maman
We were antiques dealers for 18 years and shipping porcelain was a total nightmare. Use far more packaging than you think it needs.
I agree! I am a compulsive buyer of porcelain on line and am very disappointed when items arrive broken because the packaging wasn’t secure enough. Some sellers know how to pack perfectly but it is a hard job.
Totally agree! You have to wrap it up in enough bubblewrap as if it were going to be used in a game of rugby, as that is exactly what the postal staff will do with your parcel!
I once had a department store send me a china sugar, tea and coffee set. The person that packed and sent it via post to me put it in an oversized box with a single piece of tissue paper around each object and that was it! When i picked it up from the Post office all I could hear was everything rolling round and rattling together inside. Honestly 😅
@@user-qz1ky2dz4jand then put it in another box.
Your father was with you then and will be looking over you now 🤍🕊️🫶🏻
I have always appreciated that you kept your history private. Happy to learn what you choose to share, but equally happy for you to maintain an element of mystery about yourselves. As in real life.
Well said Amy.
Well said Amy.
I would love to hear more about her singing days, and hear more of her singing 😊
Terrific idea!
Congrats to Philip! The new website is fresh and lovely.V clean design frames the items well and the "in situ" placement of the things for sale look v sumptuous and inviting.I'm sure it will be a big success.Just keep the sale items v edited.Creates demand for the exclusivity.Keep it tight! Free advice from an online marketing consultant.😅
"Nic's" Marie adds so much to yesterday and todays vlogs
Percy has such blue eyes! Wonderful
I was thinking the same thing
If you had prints made of your Dads sketches they would sell like hotcakes!
I didn't realize you were married before. I have been watching for years.
gregory francis mannion clark. She was married to him at the age of 22 or 23, it only lasted for 18 months.
Wow I never knew she was married before ! 😮😮
She has mentioned it several times in her first videos. That’s how those of us that have been here since around the beginning knew what Nick looked like.
@@bell4902 really? I only heard her speak of her former boyfriends in those videos--don't recall her ever disclosing that she was previously and very briefly married.
Seeing that last letter was from 1983, makes me feel so old as I was in college in 1983.
The world may have lost a poet, Stephanie, but we gained a lovely, kind friend. Congrats to Phillip on the shop.
Didn't know that you were married before. You looked absolutely beautiful.
Also love your father's handwriting, and the 'Simplify' poem❤
and she drops it in as if it's old news... She truly did look beautiful. Interesting past tho'. Lived with Michael and Nick in the same apartment, had relationships with each , ends up co-owners of the chateau. Now Philip speaks of the chateau as if he owns shares and potentially could without a pre-nup. Stephanies an amazing lady Co habitating with all these men of relationships and it appears to be so copasetic. Go Stephanie, in her own little Bridgerton
Stephanie your mom and grandma are absolutely twins ❤
I'm pretty sure your grandmother is watching from above and sees the chapel progress. It's so beautiful and the restorers are incredibke.
Stephanie you have a big bold spirit that's gentle at the same time. Please know that you and your contents do make this world so beautiful.
What an amazing person your father must have been. A true artistic and creative mind ❤❤❤
I think Percy may have cracked it. Dinner and pudding in one bite! Excellent. The sacristy gates look amazing. All of the chapel looks beyond words. Well done Stephanie. 🙂
Steph. You need to sell print versions of your dad’s art work. I love his style and would be willing to buy prints. It would another great way to raise money for the chateau renovation.
Ideas :
Little glass trinket tubes of the gold leaf scraps! Sell little tubes for a hanging necklace. Pay for the new terrace!
So glad you got those fans. I am clearing my crafts and today I did 3 drawers. I am donating the crafts to a middle school art teacher
Stephanie, your grandmother is seeing the chapel renovations. 💝
Your grandmother looks like "Mummy"!
So sweet that your father kept those photos with him.
Your Mummy’s little play fit was so cute. I am sure if she wanted to do something she will anyway. Your Dad had a big heart to keep all your drawings and writings.
Nicks Marie is such a lovely person could we hear more about her one day she is always so happy 😀
If you join the Patreon membership, you can see an interview with her if I remember correctly😊
Stephanie, your sewing cabinet is by a company called Horn. Please don't dump it, they are very expensive and sought after and I am sure it can be repaired. They have a UK website.
Sell it in the online shop.
Our fathers’ art and writing is so similar. True artists in everything they did.
Yes, you should definitely make a book of your father’s art and writings. Perfect tribute to him and a bonus for us. You can advertise/sell it on your new website shop.
What a great idea getting the fans. The website for the dishes is beautiful, congrats on selling out.
It is little wonder why your parents kept those letters. They are delightful! How lucky they were to have a child who communicated so expressively! ☺️
your father sounds like he was a very wise man
Congratulations on Jarvisjanssen! Please create a Chateau De La Lande tea cup to be sold in the store.
Seeing the restoration of the chapel gets me every time! It is so beautiful! I can’t believe how intricate all the designs are and how incredible the restorers are. It’s all absolutely magnificent! 🙌✨⛪️✨
I like the bit of gold leaf on the berry clusters, sort of mellows the shocking red. How nice your father kept your letters and notes; what a great reminder of childhood. He was an exceptional person.
What beautiful penmanship your father had. Just lovely. Also, what a joy to have so much of your fathers thoughts on paper and, of course, his precious art. You are blessed. 😊
I’m dreaming of all the gorgeous photos of your wedding in the chapel. What a perfect way to christen the newly restored chapel.
I think a book of your fathers artwork and writing is a wonderful idea! What a beautiful way to honour his memory, especially as he was planning to release a book himself! And gosh, your mother looks so much like your grandmother. Strong (and beautiful) genes in your family! x
May I suggest a peacock perch for them to roost on. It may encourage them not to be on the table. Maybe put some blackberries by it for them to have their own little garden, could be engaging for them ❤
I can’t believe it. I have the exact same sewing machine cabinet. Who would have thought I’d have something you own too? My hydraulics still work though. What a small world.
Opening the new website Phillip created was really beautiful. A bit like an auction, be quick or loose out. I think its fun and serves a function with the end result hopefully contributing to the terrace and restoration of the facade of La Lande.
You should recreate the photos of your grandmother with your mother! Would be so special
Stephanie, you have only gotten more delightful to watch as time rolls on. Your sweet and generous spirit is so uplifting. Thank you for your commitment to regularly producing such a high standard video. ❤
The book idea about your dad’s art is an amazing one
Your father’s sketches and notes are wonderful. What a treasure. ❤Edited to add, you might consider a room dedicated to him, using his sketches and frame some of his notes…pics, all the things he loved. Thank you for sharing with all of us.
Sweet childhood letters and such special memories in the artwork/picture!
I believe your grandmother is able to see the progress of the chapel. She, like your dad, keeps an eye on you. ❤
The chapel is an enormous achievement.
Stephanie, 6iu have motivated me to clear out the clutter. Your father's poetry about clearing is brilliant
Lol, I love my neck fan. I use mine while I garden and clean. They are becoming very trendy and they really do help keep you cool!!
What a beautiful Father/Daughter moment.❤️🙏🏻
The photographs are beautiful.
I agree. Marie (Antoine’s mum) has a lovely energy and comes across as warm and very capable as well.
Congratulations Philip the shop is a triumph.
Major revelation! Stephanie was married? Stunner! So happy the porcelain sales are going well. I would be hard pressed to part with anything! Also, extremely impressed by Stephanie’s de-cluttering skills. I need to emulate her sticktoitiveness. Well done!
Love all this clearing out... I'm doing the same thing right now and it's very liberating!
I watched one video of clearing out while washing dust off my myriad knick knacks. It's very inspiring to keep going, and also to make sure what to keep should be worth keeping
What a find Stephanie. What a talent your dad was❤
Stephanie, just read nearly all of the lovely comments below. I totally agree with each and every one of them. Thanks very much for the smiles and knowledge you bring.
Your mom cracks me up
Wow your wedding dress was beautiful!! Really nice picture.
Those pink-gold expresso cups are beautiful.
*espresso
All souvenirs (photos, objects) from our parents remind good moments with them when they are gone...They are so precious in a sentimental way ❤
I’m loving the chartreuse lamp shades and upholstered dining chairs.. My most favorite color..
I suggest Philip do a video series on his thought process when he decorates his tables. He could do a video for different seasons and occasions. My tables are never as beautiful as his.
That photo of your grandmother so much reminded me of my mother before she passed - she was born on St. Joseph's day!
Stephanie, I doubt you will ever see this, but it is Joy (old volunteer). I had such a laugh when I noticed the dress you were wearing in the video is the exact same one (even color) that I was wearing today! I actually got many compliments, as I do whenever I wear my 100 Stars dresses.
Hi Joy! Good to hear from you! ❤️
Your beautiful letter Stephanie: ho-ho-ho... I literally laughed out loud! 😂
Maybe not a poet, but definitely an optimist, even at a young age. So glad you haven't lost that trait, Stephanie. I look forward to your chronic good spirits!
Isabelle looks just like her mother! Wow!! I loved your poetry!! What wonderful memories you have!
Congratulations on the website and the clever new business of selling beautiful table settings! Keep it up! I love seeing Stephanie’s dad’s sketches and notes. It’s fun to get to know him through his artwork and thoughts.
Your father was an intelligent and creative man! And knowing Isabelle, there is no wonder you turned out the way you did, fun, intelligent, extremely positive person!!!❤😊
You guys will need to buy stock in bubble wrap to make sure everything arrives safely 😬
I’d love to see the packaging process Philip will use. I bet it’s gorgeous! Then again maybe keep it a secret surprise for the customers. 🤫 Now I’ll have to buy something! 😂🤣❤
A friend who worked in the Post Office in the San Francisco facility said imagine your package comes down the chute…then comes an elephant ! Right on top of your package.
Bubble wrap is your friend.
@@judithbecker564 Good Advice 💖🤣. whenever I sell glass I wrap in bubblewrap and then in its own box and then put that within a larger box with more packing. It seems to work but it is excessive with the wrapping and makes the box bigger if there are several breakables in one box 🤪
Your mom is so cute and looks just like your grandmother.
Your father had a wonderfully deep, yet simple, straightforward view of life. I love what you read out of his thoughts. And, yes, his sketches have a light, effortless freedom about them which is so engaging. Thank you for showing them to us.
I understand, every day, I pass by my father’s sketches that I framed and put in the hallway! It makes me nostalgic and happy!
Cleaning the attic has been such a blessing. Finding photos and lost memories. I think it has been a blessing during such a loss. I had a similar experience when I cleaned my attic during covid. I cried, laughed and found treasures.
What a beautiful bride!
Maman and your grandmother could be sisters, they look so alike!!!
Stephanie isn’t your mom like her mother ,your grandmother.You all have amazing jeans ,you make my start of the day blessings to you all lv Ann❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Your online store is fabulous! Your followers just adore you and Phillip. I’m sure you will continue to sell out not only because the items are so remarkably beautiful but it’s a piece of Lalonde memorabilia that has actually been a part of your lives. Great success!
I love the bit of gold on the red berries! They look sort of sun-kissed.
Steph what a deep soul your daddy was you must put this in book ❤❤❤
I’m glad to see in the comments that I’m not the only one who didn’t know you’ve been married before, I’ve watched your vlogs from day one… 😅
Thank you so much for all the joy! 🫶💞🫶
Stephanie, you could not have found a better companion than Philip. Living in a Chateau with all its problems, he is the best person to help you figure out things. You are lucky to have found such a lovely person.👍😄❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree. Falling in Love and being best friends with shared interests when you live and work together is important. Some marriages are chalk and cheese and work well too but living in a Chateau that is ongoing work needs a couple with similar goals and outlook on life. I work with my Husband too and we love it.
I love it that you had breakfast delivered to your bedroom.
I am thrilled for you both that the selling of surplus plates etc is going well.
Your dads words of wisdom are so thought provoking.
The gilding in the Chapel is so eye catching.
Another captivating video
Oh my, that is amazing, congrats on the first day of the website.
Your photography is excellent! I’m not surprised sales are so good.
A compilation of your father’s sketches and writings would be a special tribute to him.
Yes, I love the idea of the two paired together!
Stephanie, i too am going through the family memories. The video tape can be digitized. The video files can be kept on something as simple as a USB drive or as 21st century as a media server that any smart TV on the château's network could access. This can also include photographs and music. When i digitized my parents 8mm home movies i built 5 media servers to give to my parents grandchildrens households. It isn't that expensive considering the flexibility and disaster recovery preservation.
Percy is an extremely handsome man. Has he modeled ever? I’m absolutely sure Ralph Lauren or Dior would hire him in a second.
I always photograph items which i intend to let go and they are in an online album and they sometimes pop up as memories
As one of the followers is saying, you should do a book about your father painting and sketching.
I am having a Giacometti book which I am frequently using to improve my drawing. The book is on a page showing the final painting and on the opposite page, the sketches which support part of the painting. Looking at sketches help enormously to fine-tune your drawing.
By the way, Percy: pain au Chocolat should remain as it is. One day, he will be adding marmite to it for pushing us into a deep gastronomic coma😂😂😂😂
Great video Stephanie! Your childhood letters are so sweet.
What a charming photo of you and your father.
I'm so glad Philip has caught the re-selling bug. His taste is exquisite and it is no surprise his items are flying out the door. I do what he does here in Norway, but only as a hobby and only occasionally. I inherited quite a bit of stuff from my in-laws and then I had a physical shop in a touristy part of town, but closed it down quite a few years ago. I still go off to the odd flea market, estate sale and look for things that need saving and I'll even spend some time mending the handcrafted pieces so that they can be re-homed and displayed proudly. I wish you luck with your shipping, because that is always the scariest part for me: leaving the items in the hands of the postal gods. So far, so good, but I seldom post porcelain or glassware. I've been using empty Pringles cans as supports inside the boxes to give them more strength in case they end up under something heavy. Best of luck!
Many of us would love prints of your father’s art work. Would sell well and help with your expenses. I’m sure that would equal a willing contribution from your very supportive biggest fan your father.
You were married?! Have you mentioned it before? I love how you casually slipped that in. BTW, you were a beautiful bride!
Yes, Stephanie did mention that she was previously married and divorced. I believe the LaLande website also mentions this.
Philip, your shop is gorgeous!! Well done, Sir!! I'm not even a little surprised that you sold out immediately. You have impeccable taste. Stephanie, the attic is looking amazing. I think it will be the perfect cozy nook for Philip to work on his shop. A book about your father's art would be an instant best seller. It's very clear looking through all his things, you were his most prized possession. He was one proud papa indeed. Lots of love to you guys!! 🥰💌💕
