Yes, indeed. We were afraid if it will be too bold, but as this room gets the least sunshine during the day, it became lovely bright and warm and makes us want to stay more in this room now than before.
You guys surprised me twice today. I didn't expect the daring yellow colour, it looks amazing in old houses near antiques. And I was expecting an older bookcase to replace the reproduction one. The modern one is a good idea to break up the antiques to avoid looking too much like a museum. Bravo guys and nice to see you back.
Thanks Mathew for your lovely comments! Great to hear that the surprises were positive. Yes, we totally agree you and we are happy with the choices in the end.
Welcome back boy's. Lovely to see you back in France I'm sure you really enjoyed your big adventures with your dog's. Wow the living room is going to be so beautiful. I absolutely love the yellow. It really makes the room warm and inviting. I can't wait to see it all finished!!! Bravo
Love everything you do guys. I think the yellow and white is cheery and works so well with your books, flooring and books. Love your funny dog Kitty. I think she's beautiful. The unique behaviour is so cute and breaks me up. Looking forward so much to your next program. I really like your happy outlook on life. Best always to you both and pats for your great doggy from David down under in far away Australia.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments David! Great to hear you like the colour choices too. The yellow truly works well with everything in the room and kind of brings all together. Yes, Kitty is such a lovely dog and she makes everyone happy. Great to have you along!
Wow............ All the hard work you guys have put into your home make a night and day difference, looks fantastic. Looks as if you guys had a nice fun day Sunday. I got the identical bookcases however after a few years I was disappointed when the show started blowing in the center. Great color choice the room looks fantastic!❤
The colour is so rich & looks Stunningalong with the shelving, great taste! Look forward to seeing the final result. Kitty looks like she has settled in taking center stage.
FABULOUS! The older bookshelves looked dated but not antique. I'm so happy you went with the bold color. I did this similar color in my kitchen and dining area and I love it to death. Take care and I look forward to the next video. DA
Thank you! Exactly, we thought so too that the previous bookshelf looked dated. The more we looked at it, the faster we wanted to change it :) Ah, lovely to hear you have painted with the similar colour. It really is such a beautiful tone of yellow.
I had reservations about the colour you chose for the room but I think it looks rich and beautiful now that it’s on the walls. Looking forward to further videos.
What a great idea for the bookshelves, I like the wall of shelves. You definitely needed more space for your books. I love the Billy bookshelves too. They are functional and look good anywhere.
yes absolutely. We love Billy shelves too and we have the same set in Helsinki too. It brings the books out beautifully while being a very discreet itself. Yes, we needed all that extra space for the books. We still actually couldn't fit all of them in the shelves but will get some smaller shelf in the upstairs too.
Who ever it was that invented Liner Wallpaper was a brilliant man or woman! Did you know its available in different thicknesses depending how bad your wall is> IT'S AWESOME. BTW Your dog rules!! Watching him spin on the sofa was the highlight of the vlog for me. I was 100% relating! Keep up the good work!
Absolute, we are so glad finding this lining paper and all the thicknesses. It will be a great help tidying up the upstairs walls too. Hahah, Kitty really is a funny dog and spinning on the sofa totally pictures how she is :) Thanks for watching!
Simply adore all of your improvements! What a brilliant choice of colour! In earnest l didn't like your old bookcase, your new furniture is more suitable! Love mixing antique and vintage pieces with striking modern ones! Love how you cleverly use the back drop of the IKEA bookcases to protect the flooring while moving the grand piano. Ingenious boys🎉Keep up the good work! Greetings from your Greek friend 😊
Hey Alexander! Thank you so much for your lovely message and we are so happy to hear that you like the choices we did. True, we did not like our previous bookcase either. It bothered our eye since the beginning, and we just could not stand it any longer. Haha you're the first one to recognise those were the back panels of IKEA bookcases :) They are so handy to move the piano with. Lots sunny autumn greetings to Greece!
Merci pour le message. Ah, c'est agréable d'entendre que vous avez utilisé la même couleur. Cela donne vraiment une atmosphère chaleureuse. En effet, cela fait ressortir magnifiquement la couleur sombre du bois.
The yellow is glorious, and reminds me of the "egg yolk" yellow in the Manhattan apartment of lamp designer Christopher Spitzmiller. There's a great UA-cam video in which interior designer Alex Papachrisditis visits the apartment. You might get some ideas for color accents. I believe in studying the work of top designers, and adapting those concepts to a more affordable budget. I love what you're doing, and look forward to seeing the progress.
Oh wow, thank you so much for the video suggestion. It really is very much similar tone. Looks fantastic and so many lovely ideas to steal from it :) Thank you, we are so happy you love what we are doing. Great to have you along.
I really enjoyed this video. This video is worth watching just to see Kitty trying to get comfortable on the couch!🤣🤣🤣🤣She is so sweet. The color looks good in there, I hope you are all happy with the result. I really enjoy your videos. I hope you can get a new one out soon. Jeff
Hey Jeff! Thanks so much for your comments. Haha yes Kitty is so funny and sweet. Her trying to find her position on the sofa is very well culminating her nature. She loves being comfortable and as close to as aspkossible. At the moment she is sleeping next to me here and snoring sooo loud hahaha. Thanks for watching and happy to hear you enjoy the videos!
Haha we know, we had the same sensation first and were thinking what on earth are we doing. But finally we are also super happy for the colour on the walls.
WOW Love that Imperial yellow.
Bold choice, guys! You won't get depressed in that room.
Yes, indeed. We were afraid if it will be too bold, but as this room gets the least sunshine during the day, it became lovely bright and warm and makes us want to stay more in this room now than before.

Yes, we thought also are we going to do something crazy. But we love it and it gives such a great athmosphere.
Great change for the living room. The yellow is certainly a surprise but looks terrific. Keep up the great work. Mark & Scott
Hey Mark & Scott! Thank you guys. We are glad you like the change and the colour choice too!
So glad you're both back. Can't wait to see what you get up to next. x
Happy to have you along!
That was a nice change to add the new bookcases, and the colour is so complementary. Bravo!
So happy to hear you like the choices too. Thanks for the lovely comments!

Bonjour j'ai peint ma chambre de la même couleur donc ,j'adore .Cette couleur en plus, s'accorde parfaitement au bois sombre .
Merci pour le message. Ah, c'est agréable d'entendre que vous avez utilisé la même couleur. Cela donne vraiment une atmosphère chaleureuse. En effet, cela fait ressortir magnifiquement la couleur sombre du bois.

Good to see you guys again 😊😊❤❤
Happy to have you along too!
I really enjoyed this video. This video is worth watching just to see Kitty
trying to get comfortable on the couch!🤣🤣🤣🤣She is so sweet.
The color looks good in there, I hope you are all happy with the result.
I really enjoy your videos. I hope you can get a new one out soon.
Jeff
Hey Jeff! Thanks so much for your comments. Haha yes Kitty is so funny and sweet. Her trying to find her position on the sofa is very well culminating her nature. She loves being comfortable and as close to as aspkossible. At the moment she is sleeping next to me here and snoring sooo loud hahaha. Thanks for watching and happy to hear you enjoy the videos!
Love it 💛
Happy to hear you love it too!
Great color choice. It's the same color I have used in my foyer and salon. Good luck.
Ah wow, great to hear you used the same colour. it really makes a lovely warm and calm athmosphere.
I had my doubts about the bright yellow... still not too sure but.. your house, your choice! Looking forward to the final reveal.
Actually we had doubts also in the beginning, but we just had some urge to try. But we love it.
Looks fabulous ❤
Thank you so much! Happy you like it.
I hoped that chromian yellow would only be covering small areas as an accent. Love the book shelves. Love your dog.
Yes, the bookshelves are so handy and we like the simplicity of them. Indeed, Kitty is such a sweetheart.
Yellow looks great, guys. The only problem I've found is that you need several coats to deepen and cover uniformly.
Happy to hear you like the colour too. Absolutely, we needed to paint 3-4 coats.
Robert , I think you’re on Kitty’s couch AND you’re taking up too much room on her couch! 🐶🛋️😂
I like the paint…very dramatic.
Hahaha, very true. Robert took way too much space on the couch. Happy to hear you like the paint too!
I am looking forward to the finished result. 😅😊
Thanks for watching!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much!
The room is lovely. I'm a bibliophile.
Thank you! Happy you like it. Yes, we love the rooms full of books too.
Seeing the color in the container was a bit eye-popping, but it looks really good on the walls.
Haha we know, we had the same sensation first and were thinking what on earth are we doing. But finally we are also super happy for the colour on the walls.
Beautiful marquetry on the piano. Erard? Pleyel?
Yes it is beautiful indeed. It is Erard.
I think Kitty was trying to tell you to move your arse!
Hahah yes exactly, that she certainly wanted to tell :)
Where would we be without Billy bookcases!
I knoooow, they are absolutely fantastic and they come with a reasonable price tag.
The term you're after is lining paper 😄
Ah perfect, thank you hehe. We start losing words in any language :)
@@charenteliving I spent a year in France for uni, and I found myself forgetting a couple of English words even after such a short time
@@LaReynedEpee Yes that can happen very quickly :)
Hello there 😊
Hello and thank you for joining us by watching our videos!
If the council run out of paint for double lines they can use your leftovers.
Hahah that's a good idea. We have plenty of it left.
