I love watching you Amy and Marc. Funny and respectful and willing to work hard.

@janeblandford852 4 месяца назад

The wood for the counter and the sink are fabulous!! What wonderful history. If it is too high for the children, just make a wooden step for them to stand on. That is what we did for our children when they were young and too short. Love it!!

step for the littlies was my immediate thought

@Olly-il7hl 4 месяца назад

Meaning to say for ages…you guys have ‘the’ best intro music/title sequence for a video (across all the chateau vids & that’s not dissing others) You’ve captured a humorous retro-French-rural-surreal essence perfectly & I love it 👏🏼

Is nothing simple for you two?? You both are amazingly calm and patient as one problem after another piles up in this Coach House renovation. Never mind … you will soon have everything working there and you can relax in your comfortable family home 😊❤

@Coopsterish 4 месяца назад

Don’t cut the basin table down - believe me, the older you get (and with a bad back) you’ll appreciate not having to stoop over the sink. A small step stool for the little people will suffice.

@DeborahWatts-s4d 4 месяца назад

Marc. I get such a kick out of your comment about liking the video even if we don’t like it. Of course I love the video. The wood and sink are amazing. Your videos are so entertaining. Deborah. North Carolina 😊😊❤❤

What an amazing collection of antique treasures you have to dip into to create that washstand 😊

@paulettebarber7219 4 месяца назад

There are always things to adjust when it comes to bathrooms. I’m sure you will be relieved to finally be able to move in. Love the slab of wood and sink. A small set of steps for the children to stand on is in order now. I’m sure you have some wood around to use. Then let the children paint them. It’s all looking fabulous!

@marshawargo7238 4 месяца назад

I kept a little one step stool next to the sink for teeth brushing. It was painted red with white words, "This little stool is mine. I use it all the time to reach the things I couldn't and lots of things I shouldn't." I haven't thought of it in a long time❤!!!

The Elm counter is beautiful. The stone sink is appropriate for the building, even if not all that practical. I'm glad that no one put their back out with all of the lifting. Your upstairs bathroom is beautiful!

@kindlydude 4 месяца назад

I think rather than stencil a similar pattern to the tiles all along the border ...just make some more of those beautiful tiles and tile the border around the bathroom. It would ti(l)e it all together very elegantly. Those tiles are unique a very very beautifully art nouveau!!!

You should add a brass plate with the family history of its origin on the bench somewhere so people know its history

@jamesthurber4730 4 месяца назад

Every job done twice! But, the bathroom is looking really good. Love the fixtures and the paint colour!

@pdq5465 4 месяца назад

I agree with you about every job having to be done twice. What they’re learning & getting experience with will be so useful to them when they’re able to get to work on their chateau. I know that jobs will inevitably have challenges there too, but what they’re learning in the coach house is invaluable. It was clever of them to start smaller. I have nothing but admiration for Amy & Marc.👍🏻🇨🇦

@@pdq5465 Yup! And they will remember the work fondly in later years!☺

I certainly did both like and "Like" this video 😊 as I always do. It was actually a good appetizer/apertif to the much-better Lost Gardens of Chateau de Rosieres channel. (Just kidding Amy, both channels are wonderful!)

😂 I need to have a word with Marc about that!

@katherineleavitt7275 4 месяца назад

Wow, that's a heavy sink, hope you can get the plumbing to work on it where it doesn't leak. Kathy USA 🇺🇸

@kindlydude 4 месяца назад

...that would be disastrous if it leaked and weakened the antique wood base underneath ...the possibility of it collapsing under that tremendous weight is just too awful to think about!!!

@lagringa7518 4 месяца назад

All gorgeous choices and I think the height is perfect.... a little bench for the kids to stand on tucked under... as we all have done with ours, they grow faster than we think! Good job!

@denisemastromina7821 4 месяца назад

The piece of wood to hold the sink thick and strong goes lovely with the stone sink. I wouldn't plaster the walls, perhaps painting with a water resistant paint because its a shallow sink and you could get the water splashing up the walls and on the wood surface

@GRANDIPRTradeMarkAcceleartor 4 месяца назад

Cinnamon is a great spider repellant. You can just sprinkle it around. Since it's a spice it isn't dangerous for either children or pets. Well done for getting htis far with the Coach house!

The sink and the wood are absolutely stunning👍👍👍♥️ , but I noticed one thing you have a fuse panel just above where you are putting the sink , I hope you are thinking of relocating the fuse panel, water, and electricity. Do not go well together. Be safe Absolutely love your vlogs and the ideas you come up with Keep pushing through I can’t wait for you to get to the house renovations 👍❤️💐🥂

@SandraWarmbreath 4 месяца назад

it must be common in rural areas with ancient buildings like yours but I'm not understanding how a highly textured sink can be kept sanitary. Will it be sealed or is there a certain cleaning method? It's really nice looking and I agree with many here not to lower it. Try using it first as a too low sink causes awful back aches, the very last thing you need!

Will you line the sink with resin? That's probably sacrilege. I'm imagining trying to clean soap scum out of all the little holes and crevases 🙈.

A bit sad that the dough bowl will be completely hidden by the counter.

@Chroniclesofrosieres 4 месяца назад

Yes it was difficult to bring it more to the fore. But it was already lacking it’s top so it would have been difficult to use for anything else.

@caronspurway3792 4 месяца назад

Amy and Marc are you going to seal the sink at all so that it is less porous? With all of the grooves it may be difficult to clean. It looks very rough on the videos and I would be concerned that people, especially children, may scratch themselves on it. We have a step stool for grandchildren to stand on to wash their hands at the sink, you could do the same for your children, it would be such a shame to cut the legs of the dough box.
