The cream 🎨 paint is a perfect accent to the wallpaper pulling from the creams within. You and Shaun have done an excellent job. The way your face lit up when Shaun surprised you with sanding and ceiling chefs 😘 kiss. The wallpaper is stunning. Absolutely stunning. I know you did a victory lap at how it all came together. The two of you have joined the master crafters diy of couples making their Chateau's their own.
Thanks so much Jacqueline! You are always so encouraging of our work here. 😊 I am very happy with the room and Shaun loves it too! Now spring has sprung I have my morning coffee in the room sitting on that quaint chair with the sun spilling in. It’s divine. 😍
The guest room is absolutely stunning! The lemon-cream panelling and adding the sheer curtains were perfect choices. You've mastered the colours perfectly. ❤Zeljka
An absolutely dreamy French bedroom. I love everything (except maybe the two gray pillows). Wallpaper, curtains, bed, and the creme panelling - exquisite!
Darlene you once again have excelled in the choice and styling of your room(s) Shaun certainly has a bloody awesome shed and the machinery will certainly keep hin out of trouble and well employed. Certainly something the local Frenchies would appreciate not seeing before. Looking forward to what you have in store for us in the coming episodes. Thank you and God Bless - Puisse votre voyage être comme un lit de belles roses qui poussent et rehaussent la beauté de votre maison.
@@DarleneLavett , it has been fantastic to see a couple of Queenslanders assimilate into the French Country community, you are both great ambassadors and the community do not know how lucky they are to have you there. Would be great to here some Frenchies start saying “gidday mate” “she’ll be right” 😇🙏🛥️🇫🇷🏰
I absolutely love how you transformed the room. The curtains are amazingly beautiful, what a great job you did by using the bedspread. Very professional looking. I just discovered your channel and now I’m hooked, excited to watch your other videos
I love it Darlene. The wallpaper is beautiful and you did a really fabulous job with it. The panelling, the cornice and the ceiling rose really makes the room look so very French. You should be really chuffed with yourself 💗👏🏻👏🏻
A beautiful French bedroom in a charming home on a lovely landscaped garden. You are very talented and skilled to do many of the projects yourself or with minimal help.
Thank you very much! We have so much planned for our pretty place here. Fortunately we have the time now to do most things ourselves plus it’s much more affordable than paying for labour. Thanks for your msg!
Your bedroom looks professionally done. Elegant and warm which is perfect for a guest room or any bedroom. The only thing I would have done differently is not added the mirror on its own. Not needed, the wallpaper speaks for itself. Jenny from Melbourne
Thanks Jenny from Melbourne! You might be right. 🤔 I placed it there as it reflects the chandelier light beautifully as well as the opposite wall and design.
Absolutely stunning redo ! Your hard work, creativity and artistic attention to detail has produced a wonderfully warm, inviting guest room ! Well done !
We love the room, the wallpaper is beautiful, your sewing skills are fantastic, and thanks for showing us what you bought at the brocante. You are a hard worker and produced a fabulous room!
What a thoughtful and heartfelt process you put into decorating a guest room. I am sure it will create special memories for your guests. It is fabulous and inspirational. Love it. ❤️❤️❤️
That room evokes such a feeling of peace and welcome!! And that wall paper is perfection!!!im inspired to paper my guest room now if i can find something similar!!!
What a clever lady. First time wallpapering unbelievable. Love it all. I think I would put the rug across the room horizontal rather than vertical. Then some of the bed would sit on it and be grounded. A friend of mine suggested this to me at our house and it worked so well. Can’t wait to see what you do next❤❤❤
Thank you Susie! You know I was going to orient the rug that way and Shaun convinced me not to! I’m going to change it around and show you how that looks in my next blog.
Absolutely gorgeous! What a great job with color harmony and I think the cream on the paneling was definitely a good call….it lets the eye rest ❤take care of
The new room looks wonderful. We're about to tackle our first every wall papering job so thanks for the tips. Like you we retired, sold up and moved from Australia two years ago for a new life in Italy and France. We've gone back to watch your vlogs from when you moved and can relate very well to many of your own experiences starting life all over in another country. (even down to the hedges - we bought them home as well only for our gardener to tell us to TAKE THEM BACK!) As you know it's not for the faint-hearted but the most rewarding thing we've ever done. Best wishes Maria et Rowan
Take them back! 😂😂😂 thank you for reaching out Maria and Owen. What a crazy ride it’s been and the things you learn along the way… it never ends! Cheers to having a thick skin, tenacity and a lust for a European lifestyle.
It's beautiful, great job. It looks so welcoming. When can I move in ???😂😉 lol. hugs to all your furbabies. We have lost all of ours, so I enjoy hearing and seeing your little "helpers".
