We also have a look at the bedroom dilemma and with some amazing suggestions from Steph and Philip i can see potential :) and who knows a change of heart ...
We had such a fun time that i can't wait to see lovely Steph & lovely Philip again x

I still can't get over the fact that you hadn't looked in the drawers of the furniture yet! That would the be first thing I'd do upon getting it. Maybe I'm just nosy but I love finding little surprises. This was so much fun to watch.

Yes, the bed is fussy. But, this is France! And with the high ceiling, the elaborate bed surround seems almost cozy. Please keep it.

@judithburke1539 3 года назад

I would lower the light fixtures so that they could be seen under the top piece, instead of being partially hidden.

@casa0123 Год назад

Remember you are wanting to sell. Other people will have other ideas !!!

@lesserpoo 3 года назад

Anna, that bed would look better if you placed the center piece higher than the side pieces, like a crown. It will lift the ceiling, reveal the lights and make the wall appear wider. And paint the set as Stephanie suggested. It will be stunning!

Good Idea for the moment we are just getting on with the renovations and will come back to this after. xx

I agree with Stephanie, that painting the bed to match the window frame color would look fabulous! Now I'll have to dig through your videos to see what you decided to do! 😊

@ginny736 3 года назад

I would paint the bed furniture a very soft French blue - leaving the gold trim - and paint the rooms walls the same French blue. I agree…the yellowed crackle finish is not good.

@27Spiritgirl 3 года назад

I like your vision of the bed furniture being painted a french blue... however... what about a french grey for the walls... extremely light in hue?

@ellaw356 3 года назад

Anna, could you paint the walls as an accent behind the bed and the nook and Also you could hang the bed top on top wall a bit higher. I think the lights being covered are bothering you as well. My sister is an interior designer and she has all kinds of ideas. It’s not that it won’t work, it just needs a bit of “tweaking”. Lots of ❤️ to you guys! PS- I don’t know the area, but could you and Ed rent it out “furnished”, until things get back on track?

@barbaranunn4958 3 года назад

Those wall lights are completely wrong , why not put hidden light under the pelmet and paint walls cream.

@jadejohns3107 3 года назад

@jeannetterhodes19 3 года назад

I’d paint the room a nice creamy color to blend with the furniture in question. The white is too stark against the antique! I’d leave the antique alone so it isn’t devalued.Then do faux paneling on walls with molding.

@hahna77 3 года назад

I think a lovely antique-looking wallpaper would compliment it beautifully.

@Lea-bw9wj 3 года назад

I wouldn't worry about it looking to fussy. When I think of French chateau's I think of gold, colour, scrolls, wall paper, panelling. I think you can make the room work. I'd repaint the cupboards and leave the gold. I'd leave the wall paper in the sides. It's beautiful. I'd use that wallpaper as the base for the whole room and pick out the colours in it. The cupboards in a soft pale blue/grey. The bed in the darker teal/green/blue (sorry hard to see colours. Then blanket and chairs in some other colours. Id also change the mirror for a scrolly one. It would still be simple but with colour. The colour will balance out the fancy look of it but keeping the fabrics simple. Good luck

@sarahcampbell6959 3 года назад

This is the best Chateau episode yet.

@tshockmom69 3 года назад

I love the header over the bed. One suggestion. Don’t connect to the two sides, rather attach to the Sheetrock over the recess so you have it look taller and see the sconces behind. How grand a bed. Amazing piece. We don’t have such items in the states, I am so jealous. I love watching your amazing finds.

@sarahclarke5500 3 года назад

After taking another look at the video, it seems to me that the headboard cabinets are quite short compared to the height of the room. If you raised them up a good 12 inches on plinths, they might sit better in the room. The two wall sconces would show but they are so pretty they would only enhance the effect. Sarah from Ottawa again.

@SandraWarmbreath 3 года назад

#BordeauxLife The bed set reminds me of the bed wall in the tower bedroom at Chateau de LaLande, the little room that Michae Petherick painted the faux paneling. The two doors to the sides of the Tower rooms are paneled and decorated and then form the niche for bed in the center. The crackle glaze furniture set in Edd & Anna's city Manor house is just a portable version of that same design concept. Since it's generally adored at LaLande that means it's just comes down to the colors,design, and other furniture they add to finish the room. I agree with the others that the two lights are misplaced, probably way to high; I think maybe they should be placed more like bedside reading lamps with softer bulbs. I will love seeing how you finally work it out. Good luck!

@juliannemaisey5047 3 года назад

@arlettedumais5776 3 года назад

I agree, the base color of the piece doesn't work with the room's paint tones. I also like the central panel on top of the wall, but here's an idea - is there a way to attach it temporarily and live with it for a bit before making a final decision? Haha, my contractor always cringed when I started a conversation with "I have an idea..."

@NatiHerron 3 года назад

That was a fun vlog. So interesting when you discover some treasure!

@Susan_Couture 3 года назад

I think the wall behind the Bed Set should be the same color as those side shelf inserts. It would make the color of the bed set pop. & the other walls might be better as a creme? But I totally understand why you want them white for resale purposes. Which is such a shame you've worked so hard on it. It's such a beautiful space.

@heidigresh2743 3 года назад

Agree that the wall color should change… I like the blue color that you are suggesting.

@tc7486 3 года назад

The bed surround is fabulous! It isn’t over powering. I can’t really tell what color the room is but if it’s white, the color of the painted surround won’t look good against white. That would kill it for me. But if the room were the right color? (I don’t know what that is) it may make the bed surround perfect. Or paint the crackle part a better off white.

@lisabeaudet8589 3 года назад

Leave the cream color in a few of the smallest spaces on that bed, but do the large expanses in the pale green, as Stephanie suggests. That way, you can avoid the dreadful job of having to repaint inside all the fussy little squares in the gold cross-hatching (or the daunting task of removing the crosshatching without breaking it, in order to paint underneath). Pick up the cream color with some of the cushions on the bed and incorporate it into some of the other upholstery in the room, to pull everything together.

2:48 I can’t tell if that’s a marble top, I’m assuming it is. This one is a little high, usually the ones I’m thinking of are about waist height, but it may be a “Cooling Table.” Back before A/C, ladies in all their petticoats would rest the bottoms of their wrists on marble tables to cool themselves off. Because stone seems to stay cooler to the touch than the room temperature. Edit: ...It was so picturesque with Stephanie leaning against it, it reminded me of this fun fact (:

@BordeauxLife 3 года назад

Yes they are marble tops.... they were for "gentlemen" to read their papers in the window light hence the height. xx
