We return to Lalande after a glorious stay with Anna & Philipp of @How To Renovate A Chateau in Normandy. We get back just in time to celebrate Mandy's last night at the chateau before returning to start her new job in Germany. It's been a week of typical chateau life - Selmar makes progress on the floor tiles, Marie receives new flowers, the electrical company finally remove our unsightly overhead wires, Philip and I start to take down the Christmas decorations and Nati finds a mysterious flood...
The Chateau Diaries Episode 189 ✨🏰✨
Escape to the chateau with ’The Chateau Diaries’ 🏰
This channel follows the adventures of chatelaine Stephanie in her French 16th century home, the Chateau de Lalande, in the heart of rural France ❤️

A very special thank you to all of you who have become Patrons of the Chateau de Lalande.

My toddler reacted when I started playing this video on the TV, she said 'hey it's chateau laland! I want to watch chateau laland!' It was soooo cute i had to share! I've been watching sense just before Selmar arrive at lalande. It's wonderful to find videos that I can watch while my toddler is playing because I can only handle so much toddler tv shows..... She also really enjoys anything were people are renovating a building or building something like Michael's cottage. She asks to watch 'broken houses' :-)

@@karenhowatt4540 No, I mean pants. I'm an American. Pants mean pants here. Trousers are something entirely different in the USA. It's funny that you say "pants mean underwear here". I have no desire to change my dialect in order to fit in with the French or general British dialect. There are significantly more Americans speaking in the world than Europeans and our dialect, it has become quite evident, will overtake. So, perhaps you should learn how Americans use pants and stop being condescending to a complement I made, Karen. Your name is so appropriate lol

Phillip is such a 'good egg'. He rolls with what ever comes his way with such grace, aplomb, and wonderful snarky comments under his breath or out loud. His sense of humor keeps all of us out here laughing. I loved seeing Stephanie's revamped closet, and am still scratching my head as to where the water came from. Please tell us where it came from when you find out. Such a silly, but mystifying oddity. I want to suggest doing a little research on Wisteria. If not carefully managed it can be 'very' invasive.

Those connection to the tank sometimes leaks as do the connections where the tank screws attached to the bowl.

Wet Persian rug advice: 1. Best to dry it on a flat surface. 2. Use towels on both sides to soak up excess liquid. If very wet still let it dry in the sun on a flat surface! 3. At this point a hair dryer can be used. Put a few heavy objects on the rug, especially on the edges where it will most likely start to ruffle. (When very wet and using towels, be careful not to smudge the colours of the rug.

@jayshack1 3 года назад

If the Toilet was running like that the whole evening, the running water constantly running could of damaged the wax seal that would be used between the porcelain and the sewage drain. it could then travel down a wall and out onto the floor, which would be why the ceiling below is not damaged. I would advise having the seal checked as in the future it could also allow for sewer smell to enter the bathroom.

Scarves and variations of tying them are very fashionable and am sure especially when you take the special trips you will be ready. Look forward to all you do and each day is a busy one at the Chateau. Decorations are always very hard to do, so it seems to me. Easier to put up than to take down. Selmar works hard with cement, as it is not easy to cut or work with I do not think? He seems to love all he does. Philip certainly fixed the Wedgwood egg very nicely, and it would not even look like it broke, I do not think? Nattie is always busy with all her own work and projects but yet takes part in all events so willingly and joyfully.

P.S. A bowl of sand will help to hold the broken glass so you don’t have to hold it when glueing.

Why not put a grapevine swag up in the kitchen and decorated with seasonal ornaments including hedgehogs, chickens, etc. I am surprised you don't have a wet dry vacuum to help with getting the rugs dry.

That would be a very useful tool ; esp since the radiators have a habit of breaking down periodically.

Dont worry - someone will now send her one lol. I actually hope they do or maybe Selmar will recommend they purchase one. He generally thinks of the machinery required

That's a great idea! Because it will look so bare without anything there now until next Christmas!

Great job on your wardrobes, Stephanie! I must say that I don’t know any other gals who need to make a space in theirs for tiaras! You wear them so well, what happened to wearing one each day?

The wedge wood angels are gorgeous. Always sad taking down decorations but makes everything feel fresh again and ready to decorate for spring 🦋🐝💐🌼🌷

Hi Lalande, on the matter of creatures, mice can nibble through plastic boxes. This is from personal experience. Metal boxes are safest. Thanks for your vlogs!
