Your narration and editing really tells the story of your new artists workshops journey so beautifully. It's enjoyable to watch how well organized you are as a family, a team and as artists.
Exactly 💯 The Narration tells the story that fills our hearts 💟
Dearest Lady of the Chateau Productions ❤
BRAVA 🎉🎉🎉🏆🎉🎉🎉
EXCELLENT VIDEO PRODUCTION
🎆✨🎇
Dearest Ladies of the Chateau ❤
I am soooo very happy for your success in your new venture & adventure at Puy Vidal ❤
I've been a fan from your channel production video #1 🎉😍🥰
If I can give just 1 feedback 🙏
❤ Please make your videos shorter to about 20 minutes ❤
I am thrilled every time I get a notification but unfortunately , I need to wait a few days more - to be able to carve out enough undisturbed time to be able to enjoy each new video to the maximum. I needed 4 sittings for this video as I now have a grandchild to babysit.
Many of us ladies wear many hats in our daily life - balancing our precious & limited time precariously, trying to fulfill our obligations.
So my suggestions are :
❤ Make shorter videos of about 20 minutes long
❤ This will require less editing time per video on your part
❤ Our eyes want to devour literally everything that you film
❤ Splitting up all the footage that you have into many shorter episodes will be a win-win
❤ We are happy to get more videos with more to see
❤ You will get more views per video
❤ You will get more subscriber interaction which will boost your algorithm
❤ New viewers who happen to chance upon a "Puy Vidal Creative Retreat June 2024 - part 3/4" video , will definitely search for parts 1 , 2 & 4 to complete the series that they know they would love to enjoy. They will then search for other "Puy Vidal Creative Retreats" on your channel.
It's our natural human nature curiosity
❤ It is also our human nature to prefer to snack on a variety of tidbits rather than gorge ourselves on a single heavy dish
❤ Another aspect of human nature is our forgetfulness. We need to be constantly reminded. Please , please , please - get your viewers to Like , Subscribe & more importantly to boost your algorithm exponentially , to COMMENT & SHARE .
❤ You can either have these reminders verbally in your Intro or Outro , or you can have the 4 Graphics discretely set permanently in your frame to save you time.
💟 Looking forward to more production videos from your entire family , including the 3 furry family members 💟
The multi-role function of your jobs is exhausting! You've created a lovely setting (and continue doing so-another role), hired staff (also another role to manage them & their functions), and videographers creating mini movies, so please know your viewers really appreciate the beauty and your 'movies.' They are beautiful!❤
Bravo bravo bravo..Hats off to the beautiful caring team of Lady of The Chateau de Puy Vidal. Fantastic dear people.
I have so much admiration for your family. You all work so hard and really have set about this new venture with so much intelligence, planning and organization. I'm sure you're exhausted after these workshops, but your efforts must feel so rewarding in the end. Thank you for sharing your lives with us!
True professionals. Nothing is too hard or too much & they do everything with such grace.
You all have done an amazing job! Everything looks so beautiful! ❤
I love your lengthy, rich videos. Thank you. Beautiful filming and editing, too. Your mother made a gorgeous still life arrangement, she is an artist.
Thank you so much!
As a Frenchman, I want to say thank you to the whole family for providing so much TLC to this beautiful part of our heritage. It's an honor to welcome such valuable migrants !
A lot of chateaus are in dire need of maintenance. Because of the French inheritance law, there are often tenths of co-owners of a property and it gets impossible to take decisions and the maintenance price is too high if you don't run a business with incomes. I know well the problem, having owned 2.5% of a big family property (sold now).
I've seen that you found a very special chef : she used to be an ancient Greek language university teacher. What a change of career !
Merci beaucoup pour ces mots ! ❤️
Wonderful video ❤🎉❤🎉❤
Love the new art studio!
I love seeing the combo of the design skills & organization skills of both seasoned & younger generations to create the wonderful events & improvements to the beautiful chateau. ❤
The studio is fantastic! I am saving to attend one of your workshops- it is #1 on the bucket list. I do event planning at my job and I thought what I do is detailed ! You guys have taken care of so many issues in preparation for this and it shows! Attending a workshop or visiting your Chateau would be something I would cherish. Great job everyone! ❤
A paintings of the chateau will be all over the world with your workshops.😊
Well done everyone. From this follower's point of view, this was definitely a lovely workshop. The Chateau looks amazing. Thank you for sharing this incredible journey. I'm looking forward to the next workshop.
I’d love to see a gardeners retreat!
Kudos to the entire Family for pitching in together for the preparations!!! Your Impressionist workshop Leader Peter was thorough in his delivery and so calm!!! What a super FUN Workshop!!! It looked like the rain didn't keep anyone from painting their best!!!
Congrats ladies, family and staff - wonderful experience for your guests! Well done!
You are all doing an amazing, job. It reflects in your chateau how much love you put into it. Your chateau is Stunning. Thank you for taking us all on your journey.
Much love & light.
❤🙏
I’ve watched since the beginning and today’s presentation has been the BEST! I have seen your vision play out! Well done creative family.
I agree entirely, its been an absolute pleasure to watch the entire family work together to get to this place. Well done. Thoroughly enjoyable. X
❤️❤️❤️

❤😂 thank you thank you thank you
What a beautiful experience
Amazing workshop. Beautiful video ❤
The best chronological story of a unique and charming project that's set from start in a highly inspirational and motivational content in one video by such an amazing family team with such serene presentation. So sublime.
Everything looks SO beautiful! You all are just an amazing team together!
Julia’s style 💃🏻is stunning. Outfits, color choices and hairstyles are so pretty.
🥹🫢🥹
That was delightful.
Well done all of you!
Ditto to what everyone else has said! You are all so professional, graceful and welcoming to your guests.
What a wonderful painting retreat! Thanks to all of you and your vision and extremely hard work Puy Vidal is glorying in the new life it has, with international visitors, all gathering to learn and improve their art whilst absorbing the French countryside, food, wine and culture. Everyone was nurtured and supported as well as enjoying each other’s company. And your new staff also seemed highly capable and to love their work with you. Congratulations on hosting your successful event. 👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful video. The high standard and quality of everything you do is very impressive.
It would be heaven to be there for your workshops!!!❤❤❤
Awesome content, storytelling and videography. Love the artistry! Thank you for sharing!
I love that for your art studio, you did not try to cover the walls with plaster or sheet rock. They look beautiful in their natural state. It is a very inviting space.
Such a beautiful, relaxing and inspirational home you guys have created. I am sure visitors go home completely renewed. Mind, body and soul. And the creator of the video content is amazing at their job. Much love and respect for your achievements from Texas. Well done you❤❤❤❤❤
A lovely experience!! I feel as though I was there. Thank you!! A 81 year old who has retired her brush, using creativity in our garden’s now an artist of the earth…😊
Once everything is set up, three weeks in between seems better than having large gaps in time. You will get better and better. Looks amazing ❤️❤️
Maruka I hope over the winter you can delve into some of the work you cannot enjoy during your classes!!❤ I think telling your guests to expect rain and bring clothes & shoes for rain for garden walks and tours means they can get out & see your lovely grounds & town!!! I love Peter and his work, it's absolutely gorgeous!!
I seldom comment on vlogs I watch but this time I am so overjoyed with your vlog. My husband doesn’t like watching any UA-cam videos with me. Today was the first time he wanted to watch with me because he saw Impressionist art in the title. He was so impressed with the work shop, art and the landscaping. Your Chateau is amazing! You all are doing a fantastic job and service to the art world. Not to mention the viewers.
Absolutely wonderful and riveting in a relaxed way! I'm impressed with how you have made your intention a reality. Nose to the grindstone while dreaming of the wonders ahead!
Love this, your chateau is so beautiful. What a lovely family ❤
bravo, avoir vidé cet espace met en valeur ces anciennes pierres et surtout cette charpente en bois, une merveille, rien n'est droit à l'intérieur et tout est droit vu de l'extérieur, et puis chapeau à toute la famille pour l'ensemble baroque du projet \o/
Congratulations to you all. This was fantastic. Maruka, the table scene was stunning. I can see bookings for next year already. The rain was even appreciated. I agree, Peter is a fantastic teacher and I love his paintings. All of your hard work paid off! ❤
It a joy to creat tables experience that creat the stage to our chef’s creations to delight our guests.
Thank you so much, I’m inspired and feel lucky to have a peek into your magical world. I hope that these retreats are financially beneficial as well.
You’ve worked so well with the weather.
Hi ladies and gentleman. I always love your videos and this one is just as beautiful. As I watch your videos I often think, “Gee he works well…she’s so clever…she’s a hard worker”, etc. I’ve come to the conclusion that you all put in equal parts of yourselves. Truly a labour of love! You’re doing great, you’re very professional and your passion alone will be your success. I know exactly how you feel. I hosted many Japanese farm stays (up to 4 nights per groups of 5 high school kids) on my property with only my young children helping. It was very tiring as we did all the cooking, housekeeping, farming activities, driving and entertaining with our guests. At times it’s 2-3 days between groups and sometimes a group would leave in the morning and another group arrive that same afternoon. Very demanding, but watching my children interact with and learn about a different culture was worth it and we still have contact with many of these students today. Your attention to detail is second to none! I hope you all have a great week.
❤Zeljka
What a beautiful experience you created for all. It is a joy watching you all work as a team and seeing fellow creatives taking inspiration from the beautiful surrounds. I hope one day you run a textile art or fibre art retreat and I would love to visit. Cheers, Christine from Australia 💙🧵🪡
Wow! You guys nailed it. Your gorgeous Chateau has so many settings for an Artist whether it’s raining or not. The grounds are stunning, the views, the Chateau itself and the set up of the Artist Studio/Work shop space is amazing. It all helps having the right staff as well. The retreat was a success in my eyes for sure.
always classy...thank you for sharing
Right from the beginning everything is beautiful so happy everything turned out wonderful for you all 😍
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL! you should all be very proud. Everything looks amazing and flows so nicely, well done all.
It truly is as beautiful and cozy as in the videos 🥰 Wishing we could have stayed longer, but we are glad we got to spend some of our honeymoon at your beautiful home!
xx Caroline Xenia & Tyler
We loved having you both, and from moment you booked your stay we felt privileged to be part of your new life together in Europe . ❤❤
I don't know much about painting, but I really enjoyed watching this vlog. The Château is such a beautiful place it just fills your senses with beauty and calm. Well done❤
At some point none of us knew much of painting but exposure and appreciation opens the door and reveals hidden talents within each of us.
Delightful and well executed. Another successful workshop.
So impressive. Your attention to detail is remarkable. I felt like I was immersed in the setting along with the participants. The studio is so stunning it might be worth a separate video this year of a before and after of the transformation. Your business model using art as the platform is so refreshing. Your chateau really showcases the beauty of French living while weaving in an experiential opportunity. Love your new staff rounding out your family team. Glad to know we can expect five more workshops this season. Can't wait!!
Tout était parfait ,merci de nous avoir fait partager cette aventure à bientôt, et reposez vous bien
Just stunning. How I wish I was there.
One hint I could give you was where you were doing the protective cover over the carpet for the indoor workshop. Buy two or three very large 'painters drop sheets'. In Australia we can get them in a very heavy-duty canvas/calico fabric. So nice and plain looking but will pick up any paint/water that falls on them. I know as I often kick a can of paint over when painting. It has saved me several times!
if you buy a few of them you could sew them together, so it just rolls out in one big piece. To wash them, you could just throw them on the driveway, give them a hose off and they would dry out on a hot day. That way you could roll back up and it is ready for the next painting workshop. That would save having to do all the sticky taping Julia was doing.
Anyway, hope that idea helps.
Cheers
Liane
Wow I just want to be there
❤ bucket list experience ❤
What an amazing set-up for the workshop. So many wonderful talented individuals. You all were the most amazing hosts!
This is wonderful. All of you out did yourself. Everything was perfect. Love how you all come together on the same page. Bravo, bravo, well done. ❤❤❤❤
What an epic episode and adventure for the painters. Love love the new art studio. Peter seems like such an inspiring teacher. All of the dinner settings looked grand. Bravo!!!
There was so much beauty to see at the chateau the tables laid & the art work created! You have all done a fantastic job to make your dreams come true. Its been so joyful to see your videos & watch the journey. Thank you for taking us along with you!
Love your family so much. This episode made me cry several times. Happy tears for the vision, effort, dedication and for all the generous hearts. So beautiful Lady of the Chateau. One day I hope to join you. 💚💚💚💚
Well Done Team, It Looked a Fabulous Experience For All The Artists. Food Looked Gorgeous. Xx 😊
What an exquisite retreat and vlog. You all do such a great job! Lots of hard work by everyone.
Most beautiful vlog ever. Your editing and presentation were superb. Congratulations on a great event and video. Maybe I will make it one day from Tasmania. Xx
What a great success! The paintings your guests have done are wonderful. It's clear they learned a lot and that you didi everything you could to make their stay pleasant and memorable! Wonderful!
What an exquisite week! ❤
I felt like the whole video was a great work of art. Every angle, every shot was so beautiful and full of color and movement and life. I enjoyed this immensely. Well done
Beautiful presentation! Your attention to detail is so impressive.
What a wonderful retreat! I can't wait to see what retreats you'll offer next year in 2025. I've been following y'all since seeing your chateau on The Chateau Diaries. Every time I watch one of your videos, I am so impressed with each of you. Many hopes I shall be a retreat guest in the future!
Beautiful journey you’re sharing with us ❤️ Romantic !
Beautiful video from beginning to end ❤👏👏
Carolina will need a greenhouse for next year….then you’ll need to build a fence to keep the dogs out lol. Really enjoy watching your process, as well as the painting retreat in progress. Hope your Dad isn’t finding it too hard to adapt to the downshifting from his life as scientist and entrepreneur in California. It really requires a change in pace and mode. You ladies do well at changing all your hats . You make a great team. So much planning and work goes into what you’re doing. 👏🏻 Bravo❤❤❤❤❤
And Peter is brilliant
Absolutely delightful episode ❤
Wow !
So interesting to see what goes into a workshop, you guys seem very organized and your guests were lovely.
Side note…….all the extra stone left over from the studio reno would make a beautiful fireplace in the studio to keep warm.
Penelope, the sidewalks look lovely! Thank you, your hard work really added a lovely touch to the ambience of your home!!! 🎉
Oh I am in heaven, this is so heart warming, love painting, table settings. Wonderful video.
This video was a joy to watch from start to finish. You all seem so chill as you narrate your way from pre-arrival through to the group's departure. You all clearly know how to work as a team. I'm not sure what I enjoyed more--watching the team at work or seeing the paintings unfold. A double feature! Les quito el sombrero!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video. So enjoyable. Well done to all 🎉
Fantastic! ✴🔆🤩
Blooming superb…..I enjoyed the week as much as you all did
Love you video content style, your narration definitely draws myself the viewer along for the amazing château journey. Thank you for sharing 💛🙏🏼💛🥰
❤❤ I cried 😢 tears of joy you all are making the chateau alive again ❤❤❤❤
Your vision and dedication to materializing it is amazing.
Take lots of pictures for sources for your own paintings ❤️❤️❤️I love watercolours, I’d love to try acrylics and oils.
¡Fabuloso!
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I have thoroughly enjoyed this video. You did an excellent job before and during the retreat….and you captured many moments that were worthy of being painted. True artists in your own right!
Congratulations! Finding a great chef who can also take the food shopping off your "to do" list is such a great asset. Looks like you could use some sort of glass/dish rack dolly for transporting glasses/bottles of wine around the grounds.
Most definitely!!
Lovely setting.
Beautiful. What a tastefully done video!
Awesome sheepdog.
Simply stunning videography! You wove it together so well I felt like I had been there! Such gracious hosts you are and your chateau is, of course, breathtaking. Love your channel. thank you for sharing with us and again, well done!!!!
Very nice! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🩷
The lengths you all went to, to create this world is amazing!!! Thank you for sharing, so much inspiration.
I truly enjoy your videos and feel part of your amazing family and all you do the love and respect you share amongst yourself ❤ wish I was there
When I read comments like yours, I am amazed at what comes through to our viewers and how much of our internal culture comes through. Thank you so much for sharing your observations and appreciation. It energizes our efforts.
Bravo!!❤
Wonderful video.
Looks like a great experience the chef bravo
What a wonderful video, you ladies are really on top of things❤
My 9 year old asked if we could have an episode dedicated to Pesco, Troubadour and Wendy? (she loved hearing Carolina's nickname for Prince Wendell) 😂❤ keep up the great vids guys!! Loved you from the beginning too!!
Really enjoyed this video. How you mixed up the shots. Good job.
Hard working team! Well done!
