Camilla, it's so lovely to witness how your presence before the camera has evolved since you and Ollie started this channel. You're more and more relaxed and it's just so fun! Love that you did this workshop.
Oh Camilla you have found your ‘tribe’ & ‘vibe’. How wonderful to spend time learning a new skill with @the_girl_with_a_hammer at her workshop. Really enjoyed your trip to the lake. More! More! More! 👏👏👏👏❤️
Congratulations Camilla on a job very well done 👌 The Marie Antoinette Barbie chair is about to become a total triumph upon completion ...Bravo 👏👏👏👏 XX 💕
What an incredible experience you had, Camilla! I think fate was on your side here. The color of the chair is perfect and as you say, by finishing it at home you have a reason to continue to practice what you learned and will hopefully be inspired to carry on with other projects! Someday when the girls are giving tours of your home they will certainly be proud to point out all of the lovely restorations you lovingly worked on! You couldn’t have found a better teacher!
Kudos! How nice to be in an idyllic setting, surrounded by knowledgeable and friendly experts. The chair looks amazing. I found watching the whole process entirely engaging.
What a delight to be learning a new skill in such an idyllic setting and with a charming teacher. I have said this before. You are so capable and take everything in your stride no matter how difficult the challenge.
Was really enjoying your August 16, 2023 video. Suddenly, after a few minutes of viewing, the video stopped and a notification was provided that the video is "private". Wow. Just wow.
Oh my goodness I am so sorry it went a bit wrong. We are trying to sort it out and will put it up again as soon as we can. Sincere apologies as that must have been really annoying.
What a beautiful place to take an upholstery class. Your chair is gorgeous and I love the pink. You also had a fabulous teacher. Thanks so much for sharing.
Wow, your chair is looking beautiful, Camilla. I love how you just went with the fact that they sent you the beautiful pink fabric...and look how fortuitous that was! I did a week-end upholstery workshop quite a few years ago. I had a gorgeous old ottoman with really old fabric that definitely needed replacing. My neighbour and I both did this workshop, and unfortunately she accidentally overdid the vodka jellies at a quiz night for a fundraiser at a bar, for her children's school, so she felt unsafe driving to day 2 of the course. So she asked if she could come in my car. 🚗 Well, the poor thing was battling throwing up 🤢 most of the day and looked so pale. Mid afternoon, she realised she needed a few more materials to complete her chair, so I drove her to the shop to get them. And that meant I didn't get to quite finish my ottoman....and to this day, it remains unfinished! 😏 Not that you can tell looking at it, but, of course, I know what needs to be done to complete it. So perhaps I ought to get on with it! Love Jacqueline from New Zealand
Aww what a great souvenir Camilla thank you so much for this great vidéo! 🙌 Thanks also for bringing your sweet energy into my course! 🥰 It was a delight to have you all for this first international upholstery summer class! 🤗
Camilla, this was awesome. Celine, thank you for showing your business and skill. All of the chairs are very impressive. The like scenery is georgeous.❤
Well done Camilla it will be lovely in your room with the pinky flowers. Nothing wrong in putting a bit of Barbie vibe in ones life. Always wanted to visit Annecy. 😘
I think it’s fabulous that you’ve taken this course. I wondered, however, why go to France? But I see that your teacher is an upholstery artist and exceptional in her profession. Celine is delightful as well. I look forward to your future efforts.
You have learnt such a useful skill and the end result is just delightful . I spent many a holiday in Annecy as a child and it is definitely the loveliest place !
How fabulous Camilla! The upholstered chair will be perfectly placed within your Marvelous Mansion...I can't wait to see it. What an amazing shop with outstanding talent to learn from. Lucky you 🥰👏👏
Many years ago I worked briefly in an Antique upholstery restoration shop. I know first hand the skills you learned in one short week will serve you well as you continue to tackle challenging projects. What a fun time. Thanks for bringing us along.
Celine is everything we imagine a gorgeous French woman to be, Kudos to her for keeping this tradition alive, we are losing every skill which made us human, creating and working with our own two hands, curses on Alexa and Siri.
Great job Camilla. Celine has a wonderful shop and is a fun teacher. You did a lovely job on your chair. Your filming locations are so beautiful. Blessings.
How I enjoyed your journey into upholstery Camilla! I did a couple of courses not that long ago too and shared your excitement and the process for your chairs creation. Yes its hard work but so satisfying. The artisan here in Melbourne I did the courses with uses the line “saving the world, one chair at a time” as the chairs are always road side or vintage finds. Id love to be able to share my creation with you, pity I cant add a pic here.
I would have loved to see your hotel. As well as some of the meals you had in that most picturesque city. I think you and your teacher could become lifelong friends....and her knowledge of historic furniture must be immense....! Kudos to her.!! You have done a fine job on your Marie A chair.
Oh my goodness, the adorable curious energy you have for creating custom treats for your family home is very refreshing. Thank you so much for taking us all along on this journey with you! 💖
Nice work on the 'Barbie~Marie Antoinette' chair, Camilla! I love the soft pink/green combination. I look forward to your continuing process and ultimate reveal. I so enjoyed the brief period of relaxation with the lapping waves...heaven. Thank you so much for sharing. ox
Your chair is going to look really beautiful Camilla! Congratulations ! Just the sort of course I’d like to do, and in such a delightful place too. Thanks for sharing it🙏🏼
This was a great experience to share and the scenery of this beautiful French town was spectacular. I love doing upholstery, so this would be a dream course for me to do! Your Barbie chair was amazing!
Good on you! We visit Annecy regularly but didn't know about this business. As we're looking for cushion fabric we'll now drop by. All the best with finishing the chair.....Maria
Such a beautiful place! And your chair looks so lovely!!! I had no idea there was so much more than just covering the chairs in fabric! That's awesome!!
Love that you are learning new skills since you will need them for the future and it will save you soo soo much money 🙌🏻🙌🏻 wish I could help you but good luck 👍🏻
Just love this video 😍what a beautiful place. 🤩Thank you Camilla for taking us around. A very interesting course, and to take it in another country makes it even more worthwhile. To spend five days in that lovely city is just ideal and for us to as we follow you on your journey. This is a great skill to have. However, it will take many more chairs to get it down pat; I guess that’s what it is all about being an apprentice😊💕🌈🇨🇦
Great job Ryan. Great clean up and trips to the tip. Now that those walls have been stripped of wall paper. Suggestion if your going to just paint walls. Go to hardware store get a product called TSP. Put in your spray bottle and wash the walls and glue off. Then prime walls. Then paint walls. Now wear goggles when cleaning with TSP. Take it f4om me who got it in her eye. Do ceilings as well.
A magnificent result! I am really impressed. These skills will serve you well as you work on the house, surely transferable to many tasks as well as upholstery! Thank you for the video!
Fabulous video! Camilla you are so beautiful inside and outside! What an interesting course. It looks quite challenging. Well done! Thank you for sharing the experience with us! x
Hi Camilla, Once again, you have undertaken a fascinating project✅. Love that you’re such a perfectionist, but also, love that you’ll tackle anything.💚💗! Your excellent taste shines through, and you should really be proud of your beautiful chair.🪑 Besides viewing your work, I also enjoyed hearing from the instructor 👩🏫, seeing the shop and range of selection, plus the glorious scenery 🏝🦆🦋🌳. I bet you’ll find yourself a few more upholstering projects now👍 Very enjoyable 😊. Thank you.
Camilla this vlog was brilliant.Thanks for taking us along to beautifull Annacee. Youve found a wonderful teacher. Should your budget allow I hope Celine can teach you how to do the wallpanels too.The material you showed with the flamingoes is lovely for your diningroom.
You did so great! I absolutely love you chair , gorgeous pink even though you got the “wrong” fabric. This was another lovely and interesting video! Thanks for sharing, your such a sweet , funny and intelligent lady ❤️🥰
I’ve always fancied going on a proper course looks such fun I’ve done bits of upholstery but never full on chairs like your barbie chair it’s looking super ❤
Looks like you had a fabulous time on your Course! Well done! Chair looks beautiful! I'm just about to reupholster a chair and really excited to see the end result!😊🥳
Great work Camilla🙂 So glad you did a course on upholstering. Such a joy to watch - I think you are one of the most glamourous and talented vloggers - looking forward to the next one
Well done Camilla! Annecy seems to be a lovely location to maintain health and well being. It is good to see that you are travelling and following your own interests, like Ollie is able to do. I also did a course on soft furnishing years ago but I just made a bench cushion, dining chair seat covers and covered an ottoman. I enjoyed the course very much. Other courses studied were French and Gardening but linked to my employment, I had to study for more job related exams.
What a fun episode and beautiful lake. Love your ability to laugh at yourself Camilla. So glad you had such a great teacher. Her shop is to die for.
Camilla, it's so lovely to witness how your presence before the camera has evolved since you and Ollie started this channel. You're more and more relaxed and it's just so fun! Love that you did this workshop.
Maybe Camilla could treat herself to a little French cottage as a weekender. Imagine the fabrics & cushions. 🫶 x
What an absolutely fantastic vlog…..thank you so much Camilla and boy your skills are just adding up. Well done you.
Thank you for showing us the chair upholstery process. So fascinating.
I love your “Barbie Marie” chair! Great job! It’s magnificent.
Oh Camilla you have found your ‘tribe’ & ‘vibe’. How wonderful to spend time learning a new skill with @the_girl_with_a_hammer at her workshop. Really enjoyed your trip to the lake. More! More! More! 👏👏👏👏❤️

“Minimalism is dead” Music to my ears.
😆😘😘
I loved that statement too!! I am far from a minimalist!!!

Great job something to be proud off 🎉🎉🎉❤😊
Camilla, I love the content that you've been making alone, so interesting and a real joy to watch. Bravo!
Would like to take a class like this. Upholstery is very costly. The coconut fiber must be replacing horsehair of days gone by
I admire your desire to create. This was clearly a unique opportunity.
Your chair is going to look really beautiful Camilla! Congratulations ! Just the sort of course I’d like to do, and in such a delightful place too. Thanks for sharing it🙏🏼

Loved watching you build your fabulous chair! The color and trim are my favorite of the chairs displayed! I Love pink!!💕

You did a great job with the chair. It was very interesting seeing the different way to upholster

Great work Camilla🙂 So glad you did a course on upholstering. Such a joy to watch - I think you are one of the most glamourous and talented vloggers - looking forward to the next one
Wow, What an investment to learn to do upholstery 😄. I hope you now can recover other pieces at home. I guess you can consider it a working vacation.
What a fun trip. I have been to Annecy the Venice of the North loved it. Your chair looks wonderful ❣️🪑🔨✂️🪡🧵
Well done Camilla! Annecy seems to be a lovely location to maintain health and well being. It is good to see that you are travelling and following your own interests, like Ollie is able to do. I also did a course on soft furnishing years ago but I just made a bench cushion, dining chair seat covers and covered an ottoman. I enjoyed the course very much.
