I"m glad to hear that Sophie is all right. It's hard to think of the day when our dear pets depart. She's such a cutie. Thanks for a glimpse of the Chelsea Flower show. Take care.
Hi Nicolas, thanks for taking us along to the Chelsea flower show. We have a flower show this weekend called Bloom in Ireland, I went yesterday 🌸 . Hugs to Sophie to get well soon 🐶 , Caroline Ireland 🇮🇪
Nicolas, You are such a good pet parent always putting Sophie's well-being first and foremost in all you do. I hope she's adjusting well now that you are back home from traveling. Thank you for the wonderful videos of the flower show. Absolutely stunning!
This past Thursday I had to say goodbye to my sweet Lucky. He was a 17 year old Yorkie. He left this earth sleeping peacefully in my arms (with a bit of help from the vet). One of the hardest moments in my life. Give sweet Sofie a squeeze from a sad doggie mom in Oklahoma. May you have at least 17 wonderful years together. Love the pictures so very classy. Hugs
I am so glad to hear Sophie is ok. I was holding my breath the entire video! Dogs are such a blessing to our lives. They are definitely creatures of habit. My little dog had some skin issues on the tips of her ears. Something that made the edges of her velvety ears a tiny bit thicker than normal. It all turned out to be allergies too. We were given some cream to use on her ears and she got a steroid shot as well. Our vet said she will probably drink a bit more water for a couple of weeks because of the shot, and she has. But she’s fine. Allergies can do strange things to our four legged friends. Again, I am so happy Sophie is happy and healthy!
You are so smart Nicholas! I'm glad Sophie is ok. You entertain me today, not every girl, woman knows how to manage the house like you, dear. It just pleasantly surprises me, this is rarely seen. You have a very cozy nest for a lonely guy, everything is in harmony. Take care of yourself and Sophie.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed this video. I'm in the middle of the U.S. and will never see London but thanks to you I get a glimpse! The garden show looks like great fun. May God's blessings rain down on you Nicholas!
So happy to hear that Sophie is fine ... glad she's getting a "spa date" after being so stressed! Looking forward to the decorating refresh of your front room and thank you for a look at London all decked out for the Queen's Jubilee and Flower Show.
Hello Nicholas! I would like to share a tip for getting moss to grow on your outside planters/ wall. All you need is buttermilk which you brush onto whatever surface terracotta is good and then you take miss from the florist or some you come across on a walk, then you crumble it to help release its spores. Keep the surface lightly moist and soon the new miss will be growing! This tip comes from Martha Stewart, if you have success, it would be something to share with your viewers. Its been 30+ years since Martha showed this on her show! Blessings and good luck to you always! From me in Kansas City! 🇺🇸🍀🍀🍀🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I LOVE the new artwork but I do adore the painting over your fireplace, too. And since I adore a sconce - I'd say buy new, fab sconces and put the art on the far wall! Whatever you choose to do will, obviously, be wonderful.
I agree in that I think your rug might need an anchor color, either within or as a border. If a vivid green is too bold, maybe consider a darker grey. Good news about Sophie! Personally, I think pets’ lifespans should better align with ours but God hasn’t replied. 😊
Living in the Sonoran desert - Arizona, USA - you have no idea how I appreciate your videos, Nicolas. It is a completely different view of our beautiful world. Getting to see the green & flowery land of my forefathers is such a thrill. Thank you.😍
Hello from Connecticut. What a nice thing to have in London, the Chelsea Flower Show. Wish you had more time to cover the exhibits etc. Maybe next year? It almost provided me with incentive to refurbish my own garden areas.....almost! I never noticed the two side lights before; I have to agree not sure what that style is. I think it outstanding that your subscribers are getting involved with you. Great that you are looking to the present as a bachelor...something that has been actually delayed...so embrace it and enjoy, Nick.
Oh Nicholas I couldn’t be happier that Sophie is OK!, The flower show was absolutely stunning. I actually gasped out loud when I saw those cream colored roses ; just gorgeous and then the decorations outside the store fronts: magical, but my main concern selfishly was Sophie . I’m so ,so glad that she’s all right. Please give her a hug from me and I’m sending you a big hug too . I don’t comment all the time but I wait with great anticipation for every Sunday now. It makes it extra special to see you. I love your new style of sitting and just chatting because it just comes naturally to you I make videos for my job sometimes - it just happens to come easily to some people and you are fabulous. I love you, have a wonderful week and thank God those wall sconces are gone. Xx
You are all Sophie needs !!!! When I am a little down, the best remedy for me is to watch your wonderful videos. They inspire me . Thank you very much Nicolas!!! xx
I love the painting of your fireplace as well as your new ones So happy to hear Sofie is better.I wish you all the best and wish you would consider moving to Houston
Being a single parent of 2 adopted senior Yorkshire terriers ,10 and 14 years old, I can totally relate to your health concerns for beautiful Sophie. So relieved to learn that all was well in the end. Love your apartment and patio areas! Looking forward to many more v!ogs! (Kathy, a Florida, U.S. subscriber) Kathy, Florida USA subscriber.
I’m so pleased you bought the maps, you’ll never regret a purchase like this and they’ll follow you where ever you go. I live in the Cotswolds near Oxford and bought some large old maps of Oxford, I love looking at them, they are also classic and timeless. I have a 11 year old terrier and she’s become very anxious the older she gets, she constantly needs me for reassurance and looks to me for my reactions. Puppies are wonderful but when they reach this age this is when the love, bond and trust between dog and owner is at its strongest, Sophie is lucky to have you. All the best x
I just want to say I'm so happy that Sophie is okay. She is a family member, and you know her best. Your ideas are so inspiring to watch. Your channel is different than many of the others. I like that it includes cooking, decorating, cleaning, and shopping. You have made me want to visit Edinburgh someday. Thanks for sharing and showing this beautiful country.
Dear little Sophie, I am so happy to hear she is okay. She lives a quiet, loving life and it was probably just was too much for her. I know the love of a furry angel. Thank goodness it is not something serious. I love your videos and look forward to every one!
I’m so glad Sophie is alright! I have an almost 12 year old Labrador and I understand your sentiments. Although we know they cannot remain with us forever, we can still hope for a very long while. Also, do not fret over what others think of your devour choices variety is the spice of life!
Glad Sophie is okay. Love the maps. Look forward to seeing the reveal in your next video. Wanted to mention from a feng shui perspective, it is good to update furniture, clothing, etc. You mentioned many of these pieces you had in your previous home and relationship. Bringing in new items will infuse new energy into your life in Edinburgh.
Glad little Sophie is ok. I'm not a pet owner, but I understand how much of companion they can be to people. How blessed are you to have a bespoke carpet hand crafted to your specifications! I'm sure it will be lovely and a great addition to your place.
Looking forward to seeing the new chic Nicolas Fairford decor. ------ OH, what a relief. Sophie is okay, nothing life threatening. Thank you so very much for giving us the good news about Sophie during this video. Wishing you, Nicolas, and Sophie many more enjoyable years together.
Thank you so much for updating us on Sophie. So happy she's fine and headed off to be prettified. Not that she needs it. She's adorable. I can't wait to see your living room restyled. I find those maps utterly fascinating. Such a wonderful video, Nicolas. THank you.
So glad to hear that Sophie is ok. I love seeing her on here. She is just so cute. And, as always, I love your vlogs! Can't wait to see what you do with your flat.
Nicholas, I have just received your lovely newsletter about The Queen and it brought tears to my eyes! You are so lovely and warm-hearted. Thank you for what you do.
I am so happy for Sophie, I can wait to see her when she gets off from the groomer. My late furry baby lived 17 and a half, same kind of breed Shih tzu. Enjoy every moment, she is your best friend! 🤗
Betty here.....I so enjoyed seeing London through your eyes (I'm from the USA). The flowers were glorious as were the storefronts. Love the two map prints...the sepia tones are so soothing! Looking forward to seeing the new rug and other changes in your living room. I'm relieved to know that sweet little Sophie is ok, too. Blessings!!
I’m so happy Sophie is fine, I enjoyed going to London and the flower show it was beautiful, thanks for taking me along, have a wonderful blessed day Nicholas, 🌷🌼🌻🌹🌸
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your care of Sophie. You are really wonderful to put her needs first and I admire and applaud you for that-your priorities are right and I really admire you for that 🙏❤️🥰
We love you Nicholas, and we all send good wishes, and heath to you and Sophie. She is at the age where she is better off being cared for at home where she is comfortable, and familiar. She seems like such a sweet girl, and I am glad she is doing better. Give her a hug from all of us!
So glad to hear Sophia is doing good, so glad you were able to get her in right away to be checked it takes the worry off us.Thank you for taking us to the flower show.
You are absolutely lovely and I can’t wait to see your new and improved living space. I can’t believe people asking you not to change anything. We all grow and we all change and our tastes changes too, so good for you for wanting a new style! Sophie is so lucky to have such a caring daddy!🥰
Those choice for the rug are fabulous! They will work perfectly for whatever new pieces you bring into the space, and I can’t wait to see the rug! I love the wall color, it’s the one I wanted you to do. Those 2 new pictures will look so good on that wall color! Very exciting!
Thanks for showing us around the Chelsea Flower Show Nicolas, and I am so glad to hear that Sophie is doing well. Yes, it is always good for your home to reflect who you are, and I for one can not wait to see how you will revamp your living room.
I fast forward every other UA-cam video I watch except yours. I love every second of what you do on your videos and never want them to end. I had to cut my vacation short too because of my little dog so I totally understand your worries and your priority putting Sophie first.
As per so many other comments, I'm so glad Sophie is ok. Those of us who have pets so understand how stressful it is when they have problems. Your home is beautifully decorated, but I do understand there is a time for change as we get tired and bored with the same decor. I love changing things up too.
Your manner and voice whilst presenting your weekly material bring an utter essence of calm. Personally, I greatly appreciate and prefer your latest Vlog style, as you are correct, it does bring a much more personal feel to things. I very much looked forward to your weekly videos throughout the pandemic, as they were like a sunbeam cutting through the dark clouds of an incredibly difficult time. Although we have all gained some sense of "normalcy" to our daily lives again, I still adore your content just as much as I did before, if not more so! So Nicolas, I guess I just wanted to express a long overdue "THANK YOU" for being exactly who you are in your sense of style, presentation, honesty and a deep seeded admiration of lovely things. Any "haters" or "trolls" out there can bugger off! I think it's a safe and fair observation to say that you have brought a lot of happiness to others in what you're doing. Fortnum & Mason have a motto saying; "delivering parcels of joy", and in your case one could say; "presenting Vlogs of delight". I also thank you for the polite correspondence we have shared on Instagram from time to time. You are a treasure, and I already look forward to next Friday's offering. Best to you, Matty 🙏🥂💐 PS. I too am glad Sophie is indeed well.
Happy to hear Sophie is doing well - I really enjoyed seeing the beautiful flowers from the show & shops - looking forward to see the changes to your living space - change is good
Hi: I love the 2 map/plans wall hangings you got and very happy that Sophie is good. I enjoy your channel very much! You're the type of person that I could hang out with and have a good time decorating, shopping for great fashion - all that fun stuff. Peace and blessings.
I think you’re right regarding Sophie, she’s elderly and perhaps being cared for by strangers is less than ideal now, I hope she’ll rally round and perk up bless her ❤️🐶🙏🏻xx
@@NicolasFairford that’s a great relief for you 🐶❤️I recently had a loss of one of my dogs, a Pug named Hattie, I would say the latter years are even more precious if that’s possible 🙏🏻😊I hope Sophie has many more of them xx
Thanks for the update on Sophie. You are such a good attentive dog companion. After the age of 10 it is best that dogs stay home and not travel. The air quality in London might just be too difficult on her lungs and it might make your travels a bit easier. I have two dogs and two cats and I don’t travel with any of them. Their place is in my home.
I also feel like the vlog format creates a more personal dialogue between you and your viewers, more like a friendship as you said. Wishing you and your little Sophie everything good!
I'm so happy things are well with your dog. I had to say goodbye to my 12-year-old beagle, Christopher. It was so much harder than I thought it would be even though I still have my 17-year-old beagle. Thank you so much for sharing your journey and the beauty of it. Your videos bring a calm and reflection that helps in these hectic days.
I love the new style of your videos and we are friends of course!! Thankfully, Sophie is ok! I always hate leaving my cat. He has such a peaceful and serine existence, so when that is disrupted he certainly feels it! Long live Sophie.... she brings us such joy!
Thank you for taking us on your excursion to London. It was so enjoyable, I am going to watch it again. I understand why you love Fiona Finds. Bless little Sophie🥰
Love the pictures of the flower show, would like to be there in person. Soooo glad to hear little Sophie is OK, you are so good to cut your visit short to take her to the vet.
Consider this. Wire brass picture lights over each architectural print! It would spotlight them after dark and add a bit of light to that side of the room. Very sophisticated. Very metropolitan. It would look great!
The simplicity of the cloud shot on the plane with a follow through of Sophie sleeping on the train began to give a look into this self-evolution phase that you shared as we journey with you in your vlog. The contrast of the blooming flowers at the Chelsea flower show followed by two very striking statement art pieces for your home gave a hint of this budding self-transformation process. Sophie the Heart of this whole beautiful vlog segment quietly sharing her transformation in the background also - incredible life companion, may her golden years simply be that - Gold!
Sweet Nicolas, great job caring for your wee one. They're beyond precious and should always be our main concern. Now, as for your home, I knew this day would come. Your 'old' country home style is my exact cup of tea and what first drew me to you. I was surprised such a young man had such traditional taste. And as all things do, your tastes are changing. I'll stick with you because I love you but I'll miss the Cotswold decor. Thank you for another video!
So happy to hear that Sophie is doing better !!! We had a Shih Tzu too, her name was "Pickles", she lived to 15 years old. We got her when she was 8 weeks old and she weighed only 3 lbs !! She had a cough too at one time or the other and the Vet prescribed the same thing. She lived a long and healthy life !! Sophie is so adorable, I love it when she is in your videos !!! Thank you for showing us around the Flower show, so beautiful !!
Sweet Nicolas, The black and white plans are wonderful. I love them. I fall more and more in love with your living room wall color each time I see it. When I see you have posted a new you tube I get excited. Your content contains the right amount of this and that. Well balanced. I can't wait to see your new rug. We are so relieved Sophie is on the mend. I find I change my plans for my fur babies. Everyone Be Blessed and safe,
🙌 yes! feel more connected as you say too with this vlog style!!! The glimpse of your trip and the scenery of what you saw was nice to see. And, so very glad to hear that Sophie is fine. She is a special part of your channel and to all of us viewers😌
I completely understand your caution with Sophie, hoping all is well. I have an older dog and have also adjusted plans accordingly. Always appreciate your tranquility and your creative growth and think the maps are a great choice as well as a rug. Looking forward to new surprises.
So glad you have an update on Sophie by the end of the video and that she is doing ok. Love the new map prints and look forward to seeing how you decide to hang them.
I am so very happy that Sophie is doing okay and healthy. I too pray you will have her around for many years. My little Bella, multipoo was just over 14 yrs old when she passed. It was so hard but in time, I now have a new pup, Lilly Rose who is now just over 5 months old. Loved what you were able to show in your vlog today. Have a beautiful week and happy celebrating the Queen.
So relieved to hear Sophie is alright. Changing their routine get much harder on them as they get older..bit like ourselves 😅💕 Lovely trip to Chelsea and Fiona Finds. Loved London when I lived there in Kensington.
Yes, Sophie needs a spa day and she will be back to normal! Give her hugs too. Thanks for the tour of the flower show. yes pics over fireplace extending beyond the hearth sounds great! Be well.
Glad to see Sophie well . Love how you will decor your wall with the Maps picture. Love how you like historical memories about your Endiburgh. You are the best in your ideas for decors.
It’s fun to see your excursions. Loved the glimpse of the flower show. I absolutely love British gardens .. some so formal and others looks so whimsical! I’m so you gave an update on your Sophie. So happy she is OK! Haircut for the summer is good. Hopefully she will not get stressed. Our fur babies are so much a part of our families. We had to say goodbye to our 13-year cat and I was devastated! I still look for her and it has been months. Enjoy your Sophie and don’t think of having to say goodbye.
First of all, I'm very happy that Sophie is doing well. How lovely London looks with the British flags and the spectacular flower arrangements. The prints are wonderful and will look very nice. I like that type of artwork. Great video. 🥰🌻🐕🇺🇸
What a relief to know that your dear little Sophie is ok! Thank you for taking us to the Chelsea Flower Show with you - it all looked so beautiful. Can’t wait to see your new prints/paintings hanging on your wall! They’re going to look fantastic.
So glad Sophie is well. Stress can be so harmful for pets and humans. Looking forward to seeing your new maps hung over the fireplace. I'm in Scotland for holiday and looking forward to seeing Edinburgh!
Nicholas, those roses displayed and the other flowers melted my heart with love and joy when you showed the store fronts. I don't think I have ever seen a more beautiful heavenly scene in my life. I bet your heart was bursting with joy! The flower smells had to be unbelievably enchanting! I'm glad little Sophie is better. What a little 💕 love. Thank you for sharing a part of your world with us. I feel as if the flowers gave us all hope for a brighter tomorrow. Much love and blessings dear.
You home is lovely and changes are so enjoyable as we advance through our life adventures, your new touches will be enjoyable for all. Glad your Sophie is doing better.
Thank you so much for letting us know your precious little Sophie is ok. My little Grace Elizabeth is the same age. She is such a blessing in my life, as Sophie is in yours💗. I don't even want to think about when she is no longer on Earth with me.
So happy Sophie’s ok. She’s such a sweet pup. Thank you for sharing the Chelsea Flower show , I’ve always wanted to go. So inspirational. I love your new prints. I believe that when we have things in our homes that are from a past relationship it’s a good idea to give them a new home because they are a reminder . As we grow and change so does our taste. Of course family heirlooms etc are something we should keep and treasure.Just my thoughts.I’m sure it will be wonderful.
Oh Nicholas, was so worried about Sophie. Relieved she is okay. The vlog was beautiful. Thx for taking the time to visit the Chelsea show and share with us. Have a great week
Such a relief to hear that "Sophie" is fine. Animals tend to hide from us their aches and pains so you are such a good "Father" to be so observant. Loved the video can't wait for more!!
I"m glad to hear that Sophie is all right. It's hard to think of the day when our dear pets depart. She's such a cutie. Thanks for a glimpse of the Chelsea Flower show. Take care.
My pleasure! Thank you!

You are absolutely lovely and I can’t wait to see your new and improved living space. I can’t believe people asking you not to change anything. We all grow and we all change and our tastes changes too, so good for you for wanting a new style! Sophie is so lucky to have such a caring daddy!🥰
Hi Nic, so relieved to hear Sophie is feeling better . We’ve all grown to adore her too ! 💜🐶 💜. Wonderful Vlog and loved all the different flowers 💐
Those choice for the rug are fabulous! They will work perfectly for whatever new pieces you bring into the space, and I can’t wait to see the rug! I love the wall color, it’s the one I wanted you to do. Those 2 new pictures will look so good on that wall color! Very exciting!
Thanks for showing us around the Chelsea Flower Show Nicolas, and I am so glad to hear that Sophie is doing well. Yes, it is always good for your home to reflect who you are, and I for one can not wait to see how you will revamp your living room.
I fast forward every other UA-cam video I watch except yours. I love every second of what you do on your videos and never want them to end. I had to cut my vacation short too because of my little dog so I totally understand your worries and your priority putting Sophie first.
Thanks for the look at the flower show and glad Sophie is ok. When our pupps get older, even minor disruptions can cause issues.
As per so many other comments, I'm so glad Sophie is ok. Those of us who have pets so understand how stressful it is when they have problems. Your home is beautifully decorated, but I do understand there is a time for change as we get tired and bored with the same decor. I love changing things up too.
Yes, I do like the idea of changing the skirt on the table, and I love the prints above the fireplace.
Your manner and voice whilst presenting your weekly material bring an utter essence of calm. Personally, I greatly appreciate and prefer your latest Vlog style, as you are correct, it does bring a much more personal feel to things. I very much looked forward to your weekly videos throughout the pandemic, as they were like a sunbeam cutting through the dark clouds of an incredibly difficult time. Although we have all gained some sense of "normalcy" to our daily lives again, I still adore your content just as much as I did before, if not more so! So Nicolas, I guess I just wanted to express a long overdue "THANK YOU" for being exactly who you are in your sense of style, presentation, honesty and a deep seeded admiration of lovely things. Any "haters" or "trolls" out there can bugger off! I think it's a safe and fair observation to say that you have brought a lot of happiness to others in what you're doing. Fortnum & Mason have a motto saying; "delivering parcels of joy", and in your case one could say; "presenting Vlogs of delight". I also thank you for the polite correspondence we have shared on Instagram from time to time. You are a treasure, and I already look forward to next Friday's offering.
Best to you,
Matty 🙏🥂💐
PS. I too am glad Sophie is indeed well.
That is such a nice comment! Thank you so much X
Happy to hear Sophie is doing well - I really enjoyed seeing the beautiful flowers from the show & shops - looking forward to see the changes to your living space - change is good
Hi: I love the 2 map/plans wall hangings you got and very happy that Sophie is good. I enjoy your channel very much! You're the type of person that I could hang out with and have a good time decorating, shopping for great fashion - all that fun stuff. Peace and blessings.
That sounds so fun!
I think you’re right regarding Sophie, she’s elderly and perhaps being cared for by strangers is less than ideal now, I hope she’ll rally round and perk up bless her ❤️🐶🙏🏻xx
Thank you! She's much better already x
@@NicolasFairford that’s a great relief for you 🐶❤️I recently had a loss of one of my dogs, a Pug named Hattie, I would say the latter years are even more precious if that’s possible 🙏🏻😊I hope Sophie has many more of them xx
Thanks for the update on Sophie. You are such a good attentive dog companion. After the age of 10 it is best that dogs stay home and not travel. The air quality in London might just be too difficult on her lungs and it might make your travels a bit easier. I have two dogs and two cats and I don’t travel with any of them. Their place is in my home.
Agree, she is such a sweetheart ❤️
@@NicolasFairford that is wonderful news ❤️❤️❤️
I also feel like the vlog format creates a more personal dialogue between you and your viewers, more like a friendship as you said. Wishing you and your little Sophie everything good!
So happy to hear Sophie is okay! I love love love those prints
I'm glad Sophie is okay. Your vlogs are always entertaining, they give me su h a calm relaxing feeling. Thank you
Green is my fav color also. I have green eyes so i wear alot of green. I enjoy visiting with you , always brightens my day. 🌻
I'm so happy things are well with your dog. I had to say goodbye to my 12-year-old beagle, Christopher. It was so much harder than I thought it would be even though I still have my 17-year-old beagle. Thank you so much for sharing your journey and the beauty of it. Your videos bring a calm and reflection that helps in these hectic days.
I love the new style of your videos and we are friends of course!! Thankfully, Sophie is ok! I always hate leaving my cat. He has such a peaceful and serine existence, so when that is disrupted he certainly feels it! Long live Sophie.... she brings us such joy!
Thank you for taking us on your excursion to London. It was so enjoyable, I am going to watch it again. I understand why you love Fiona Finds. Bless little Sophie🥰
Love the pictures of the flower show, would like to be there in person. Soooo glad to hear little Sophie is OK, you are so good to cut your visit short to take her to the vet.
Consider this. Wire brass picture lights over each architectural print! It would spotlight them after dark and add a bit of light to that side of the room. Very sophisticated. Very metropolitan. It would look great!
The simplicity of the cloud shot on the plane with a follow through of Sophie sleeping on the train began to give a look into this self-evolution phase that you shared as we journey with you in your vlog. The contrast of the blooming flowers at the Chelsea flower show followed by two very striking statement art pieces for your home gave a hint of this budding self-transformation process. Sophie the Heart of this whole beautiful vlog segment quietly sharing her transformation in the background also - incredible life companion, may her golden years simply be that - Gold!
Sweet Nicolas, great job caring for your wee one. They're beyond precious and should always be our main concern. Now, as for your home, I knew this day would come. Your 'old' country home style is my exact cup of tea and what first drew me to you. I was surprised such a young man had such traditional taste. And as all things do, your tastes are changing. I'll stick with you because I love you but I'll miss the Cotswold decor. Thank you for another video!
So happy to hear that Sophie is doing better !!! We had a Shih Tzu too, her name was "Pickles", she lived to 15 years old. We got her when she was 8 weeks old and she weighed only 3 lbs !! She had a cough too at one time or the other and the Vet prescribed the same thing. She lived a long and healthy life !! Sophie is so adorable, I love it when she is in your videos !!! Thank you for showing us around the Flower show, so beautiful !!
This is what Flower dreams are made of... Sophie will never leave your side, their spirt always stay with their loved ones. Many blessings
Sweet Nicolas, The black and white plans are wonderful. I love them. I fall more and more in love with your living room wall color each time I see it. When I see you have posted a new you tube I get excited. Your content contains the right amount of this and that. Well balanced. I can't wait to see your new rug. We are so relieved Sophie is on the mend. I find I change my plans for my fur babies. Everyone Be Blessed and safe,
🙌 yes! feel more connected as you say too with this vlog style!!! The glimpse of your trip and the scenery of what you saw was nice to see. And, so very glad to hear that Sophie is fine. She is a special part of your channel and to all of us viewers😌
I completely understand your caution with Sophie, hoping all is well. I have an older dog and have also adjusted plans accordingly. Always appreciate your tranquility and your creative growth and think the maps are a great choice as well as a rug. Looking forward to new surprises.
Thank God Sophie is well happy to know. Thank you the Chelsea flowers are really beautiful.
So glad you have an update on Sophie by the end of the video and that she is doing ok. Love the new map prints and look forward to seeing how you decide to hang them.
Thanks
I am so very happy that Sophie is doing okay and healthy. I too pray you will have her around for many years. My little Bella, multipoo was just over 14 yrs old when she passed. It was so hard but in time, I now have a new pup, Lilly Rose who is now just over 5 months old.
Loved what you were able to show in your vlog today. Have a beautiful week and happy celebrating the Queen.
So relieved to hear Sophie is alright. Changing their routine get much harder on them as they get older..bit like ourselves 😅💕
Lovely trip to Chelsea and Fiona Finds. Loved London when I lived there in Kensington.
Yes, Sophie needs a spa day and she will be back to normal! Give her hugs too. Thanks for the tour of the flower show. yes pics over fireplace extending beyond the hearth sounds great! Be well.
Glad to see Sophie well . Love how you will decor your wall with the Maps picture. Love how you like historical memories about your Endiburgh. You are the best in your ideas for decors.
It’s fun to see your excursions. Loved the glimpse of the flower show. I absolutely love British gardens .. some so formal and others looks so whimsical!
I’m so you gave an update on your Sophie. So happy she is OK! Haircut for the summer is good. Hopefully she will not get stressed.
Our fur babies are so much a part of our families. We had to say goodbye to our 13-year cat and I was devastated! I still look for her and it has been months. Enjoy your Sophie and don’t think of having to say goodbye.
First of all, I'm very happy that Sophie is doing well. How lovely London looks with the British flags and the spectacular flower arrangements. The prints are wonderful and will look very nice. I like that type of artwork. Great video. 🥰🌻🐕🇺🇸
Love the idea of the plans, centering over the fireplace...they are very unique and deserve pride of place.
I'm glad you like them!
The maps look truly magnificent in your apartment - so chic! Wishing lovely Sophie a gentle week of rest and quiet joy.
What a relief to know that your dear little Sophie is ok! Thank you for taking us to the Chelsea Flower Show with you - it all looked so beautiful. Can’t wait to see your new prints/paintings hanging on your wall! They’re going to look fantastic.
So glad Sophie is well. Stress can be so harmful for pets and humans. Looking forward to seeing your new maps hung over the fireplace. I'm in Scotland for holiday and looking forward to seeing Edinburgh!
Konečně video kdy je vidět i příroda, ulice a není to pouze o bydlení atd. Děkuji za pěkné relaxační video a budu se těšit na další.
Nicholas, those roses displayed and the other flowers melted my heart with love and joy when you showed the store fronts. I don't think I have ever seen a more beautiful heavenly scene in my life. I bet your heart was bursting with joy! The flower smells had to be unbelievably enchanting! I'm glad little Sophie is better. What a little 💕 love. Thank you for sharing a part of your world with us. I feel as if the flowers gave us all hope for a brighter tomorrow. Much love and blessings dear.
You home is lovely and changes are so enjoyable as we advance through our life adventures, your new touches will be enjoyable for all. Glad your Sophie is doing better.
So glad that Sophie is ok♥️ it's always a worry when our pets reach a certain age. Take care,❤️
Thank you!
Thank you so much for letting us know your precious little Sophie is ok. My little Grace Elizabeth is the same age. She is such a blessing in my life, as Sophie is in yours💗. I don't even want to think about when she is no longer on Earth with me.
Looking forward to seeing your new custom rug and new design in your living room ❤️
So happy Sophie’s ok. She’s such a sweet pup. Thank you for sharing the Chelsea Flower show , I’ve always wanted to go. So inspirational. I love your new prints. I believe that when we have things in our homes that are from a past relationship it’s a good idea to give them a new home because they are a reminder . As we grow and change so does our taste. Of course family heirlooms etc are something we should keep and treasure.Just my thoughts.I’m sure it will be wonderful.
Thank you Nicolas for the trip to the flower show.
I'm so glad Sophie is ok.
I can't wait to see your new design ideas.
Oh Nicholas, was so worried about Sophie. Relieved she is okay. The vlog was beautiful. Thx for taking the time to visit the Chelsea show and share with us. Have a great week
Such a relief to hear that "Sophie" is fine. Animals tend to hide from us their aches and pains so you are such a good
"Father" to be so observant. Loved the video can't wait for more!!
So glad Sophie is going to be well! She is such a precious baby! 💗💐💗
Yes, I love the picture above the fireplace but I think those maps will look even better. Lovely Sophie can be a lady of leisure after her travels x
Flowers and shops are so pretty.
I love London. So Glad Sophie is good.
