I just want to say thank you so much to everyone for the lovely comments about the book. I am so pleased that you liked it Stephanie and even more so that you opened it for your birthday. I honestly did not plan it like that but I am thrilled that's how it worked out! Happy Birthday and I wish you all the best 😊
@@imhappy3093 hi there! I am definitely planning on selling my books but as of right now I am unable to do so as I am preparing to move back home to South Africa from South Korea. I simply do not have the time right now...but as soon as I am settled back home I will be making books available for purchase on my Etsy store
@@antiqueanna3521 I totally understand. What an adventure you’re on! I love South Korea and hope you liked it there too. I’ll look for you on Etsy in a couple of months. Your work is so beautiful and worth the wait.
@@imhappy3093 Korea has been really great but after five years I am ready to head home 😊 thank you so much, I am very excited to get some books ready for sale though I am quite nervous about it...
My sensible roommate came into the lounge just has Princess Pocket Mouse (she's fab!) was being played with and she exclaimed ''Are you watching toy reviews?'' whilst looking revolted 😂😂
Wow, all of these gifts were stunning and unique and so suited for Stephanie! It is wonderful how viewers put so much love and thought into their gifts and they couldn’t be more appreciated and graciously accepted than by our chatelaine! 🥂🎂👑🌻🥰
Stephanie you have such talented and generous subscribers. The craftsmanship involved for Miss Mouse and her chateau is nothing short of amazing. It was pure joy watching you open gifts surrounded by loving friends and family. Your cousin Amaury even got caught off guard being sucked into the silliness and admiring Wendy's artistic work. Hope you have a great birthday month and enjoy NYC. Safe travels 😍🎂🥳🎉
Tried to watch Netflix and Hulu this last hour to relax a bit and simply had to turn “off” because these Chateau Diaries episodes are beyond compare! 😀
Actually I discovered Stephanie an co. after I had unplugged 100%. Along with some other remarkable people who are creating excellent content. Stephanie is the best and has brought sweetness and kindness as well as teaching us so much.
@@stknmggs1788 wholeheartedly agree. I discovered her right when Covid started and I felt such a sense of joy that it seemed to soothe me during that trying year. She’s so fortunate to be surrounded by good people and I do live vicariously through her in France!
You should use all the sticks that came with the diffuser. Less Sticks Mean Less Scent. Place all the sticks into the bottle to absorb the diffuser oil. Leave it for few hours to get saturated with the oil, then turn the sticks upside down so the saturated ends will be in the air. The oil will continue to evaporate into the air, creating a subtle and luxurious scent. Repeat this every few days until the oil completely finished and evaporated
I cant believe the DVD is Enchanted April! As Stephanie was opening the gifts I said to myself - wouldn’t it be great it the movie was Enchanted April!?!?!? It is one of my all time favorites. Enjoy!
Praise the Lord!!! God bless everyone!!! The gifts are amazing and watching Gerald and Cousin and friends and listening to Phillip is refreshing, while I cook my dinner!!! Have a great week!!!
the clothes were stunning thankyou for sharing your present opening with us and thankyou to all those kind poeple who sent gifts, wendys suitcase room with the mouse was so adorable wendy is so tallented and i cant get over the book that was crafted wow such tallented friends you have and i say friends as the community who follow you are like friends
Marie's gift was a devine dress for the Barbados night life. The correct under garment or elastic will help the fit issue. I was a ballerina at one point in my life and have even done African/Caribbean dancing, where we were sewn into our costumes because only small swaths of material were used either tied on or knotted on. It is an art..😂
@@DamsonElvira1212 - For YT it's a bit much, but for parties and sophisticated clubs and resorts, I think it's fine. There is special tape that can be worn to batten down the hatches so to speak, but some folks don't batten down. Hehehe.
I am blown away that the DVD is Enchanted April because I was thinking to myself, "Wouldn't it be interesting if it was Enchanted April?" ... it is one of those films I rewatch on a regular basis. If there was ever a "feel good" flick, this is it. ENJOY! ... over and over again. And a belated Happy Birthday Dear Stephanie!
I'm so glad you mentioned the look on your cousin's face, Stephanie, because we did get that brief preview at 15:33. I wondered what he was thinking in his chair in the background outside of the shot. I laughed out loud when I saw his expression.
In the past what I have done to make a dress larger is leave the zip down and push a ribbon or shoelace through either side of the zip as a corset would be done up . It means being a bit rough with the handiwork but more people can fit into it. The golden jacket is gorgeous.
How absolutely beautiful. I have actually been designing a color range of paint or work and furniture refurbishment I do. The first range I have called "Chateau Collection" The first color was a yellow tone. Which I have called Chateau Chatelaine in honor of you Stephanie. After many weeks and ours of finally getting the tone out of my mind and into a paint and many samples produced it is finished. I will have to show it to you maybe on the fan club Facebook page? Its more a buttercup tone of yellow rather then a really bright one that would not be used often. Sorry I am raving lol.. Beautiful presents..
To the artist who made that book (gonna be checking out your channel and I call you an artist because the book is a work of art), what a beautiful beautiful book. I LOVE IT more than...than...Stephanie does lol. No, seriously though, it's a TREASURE.
Thank you so so much. I am so glad there are so many people who are enjoying the book. It is all you can really ask for when you make a piece of art and put it out there. And thank you so much for calling me an artist, made my day 💜
Omgoodness I want to wear dresses all the time and I NEVER thought I would! Growing up I was forced to only wear dresses.. and my mother hand sewed them.. which now is luxury but in the early 90’s meant something else.. the Pentecostal in me never wears skirts or dresses anymore, but I want to- so feminine and gorgeous!
Merveilleux book de Louise 🤩 sa vidéo est bien faite aussi !!! La robe que Marie t’offre est divine 🤩 !!waouh ! La robe Tartan et ce manteau jaune …. Splendides 🤩 Quel bel anniversaire !!! 🌸🌸🌸 Champagne 🍾 🥂
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Because of this episode I am kinda liking mice and really warming up to the color yellow. Your cousin reminds me of men at a baby shower. Made me laugh hard. Thank you so much for sharing. Stay safe!
I think Dan the Gardener is psychic. He foresaw that you would be sung Happy Birthday "50" times on the "anniversary of your 21st" birthday. I myself only celebrate the anniversary of my 21st and un-birthdays. When no-one has a birthday and I'm craving birthday cake, I buy or make a birthday cake and share with friends and family or co-workers to celebrate their or my un-birthday.
The color combinations of that tartan dress are so gorgeous! I feel like you could just keep looking at the beading and tartan colors in different lights and always see a new facet of the colors :D
So many wonderful, thoughtful, creative and joyful gifts for you Stephanie!! Cheers and so well deserved! *Princess Pocket Mouse and her boudoir are just amazing! And that Tartan dress! Stunning! So cool! Just wow, all of it!
such a cute idea to make a bedroom out of the little case! spot on! happy belated birthday! i have to plot my way there via work away! all in good my pretty! all in good time! 🦩🦚🎉🎂
Barbados then New York I am very jealous have a nice time I like the film under the Tuscan sun and 👗 is so much fun but I love yellow haute couture jacket
Princess Pocket Mouse !!! Just stunning ! ... the detail and charm and humour that has gone into that gift is truly precious! Well done Wendy!! And Amaury's expression ... priceless!! xoxo Also - the exquisite YELLOW HOODED COAT would be perfect in VENICE!
Marie - wherever did I find that beautiful dress. What's strange is it is everything I am not, but I LOVE it and it's gorgeous on Stephanie. I cried when she read your card.
Do you have a doll house You have enough to furnish one with all the miniatures you received these last couple of years ? Cheers darling Stephanie. Loving the extended b'day 🤩 Love you Gerry 😘
She has a Play Mobile Chateau doll house in her study and Davey gave her the whole village, carriages and all. Currently the village is packed in the attic. A way to display it needs to happen at some point. If a barn was built then the stables could become an art workshop and museum area. Happy Birthday!
I shouted let it be Enchanted April also. (Girl movie Amaury. Go for a hike) Happy Birthday Stephanie. You are so loved and appreciated. Because you love.
I think a large glass cloche over Princess Mouse in the future library would be an excellent dust free way to display this little work of art!
The creator of the miniature mouse house is so talented. Enchanting!
Hanni seems like a great friend.
I just want to say thank you so much to everyone for the lovely comments about the book. I am so pleased that you liked it Stephanie and even more so that you opened it for your birthday. I honestly did not plan it like that but I am thrilled that's how it worked out!

Love your work! The book is a work of art. 👏🏻👏🏻
Anna, do you sell your books? It was so lovely!

Your cousin's face cracked me up! He is just realizing what he has gotten himself into!
Is he going to keep up with them ??

Enchanted April movie is my favorite movie. Which a DVD updated I had to get.
Its a classic!!
Love Princess Pocket mouse and her room! Glad you had an awesome birthday surrounded by special people!

I wonder if one of the shoulder ruffles could be added to the neckline if it was a bit too revealing?

What a wonderful birthday you’ve had!!! Enjoyed watching the excitement on your face.
It would be interesting to see that dress on Hennie?
Beautiful
you all should throw a winter/Christmas ball!
Quite a birthday. Such a fortunate individual.
Loving the birthday cadeaux for Stephanie but feel a bit cheated as they are roughly half the length. 😛 My convoluted was of saying, I want more!
Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday dear Stephanie happy birthday to you. j'ai regardé la première partie et j'ai attendu cette partie deux.
Some more fabulous presents. You deserve it. Happy holidays.
The tassels with the yellow coat is a belt around the waist. A picture of the coat can be seen on frank govers facebook page
Wish you a very happy birthday Stephanie
I shouted let it be Enchanted April also. (Girl movie Amaury. Go for a hike) Happy Birthday Stephanie. You are so loved and appreciated. Because you love.
