So they’ve almost sold the chateau?

Last summer they sold it in a week and took it off the internet, but lied when asked. Then it appeared back on the internet. Deal fell through. Just as selective with the truth as Brocunt.

What the odds the new owner paints over all of the gold?????

Marie, blink three times if you are being embargoed by Fanny - also, your "cheesecake" looks as sad and deflated as you do.

I do enjoy Monday mornings. Coffee in bed and new chateau vlogs. Besides, it's cold and rainy here so no walking the dog this morning.
Chateau de Purnon is moving ahead in leaps and bounds, unlike Lalalande which is stagnating just like it's owner.

Have a wonderful day you old hags! xx

Call me strange but I have the hots for this guy.
He is kinda like my ex, skinny and athletic. Sheesh, I seem to have a type.

I think she'll do well, as she has created (and will continue to create) beautiful designs. I will give the Fleuries credit- while Candlegate was an abysmal fail, at least they tried, like with the B&B (which was probably a lot more work than they anticipated, as their standards for guest cleanliness and comfort are much higher than at Chez Fanny- and it must have been taxing to do whilst raising two young children.) While they have a Patreon, they're looking at ways to generate revenue (like YT AdSense and sponsors) without begging to the public to fund their lifestyles, unlike our little orphan princess.

Don't beat me up @NotAChatelaine- I actually do like the colour palette that she has used in most of the rooms (except for the orange dining room- which was Philipp's choice- it is awful) and most of her decor, which is minimal and a mix of old and modern. (I like Amanda's style as well.) I'm not even mad that their renovations take so long, as anyone who had ever remodeled a house knows that it takes time to do it right, even with skilled labourers. I'm of the mindset- do it right the first time, even if it takes longer to do so, fix mistakes properly vice "just living with it", and one will never have to do it again. Fanny will just slap some expensive wallpaper on a damp crumbling wall and call it a day.

I am a huge fan of the chapel renovation. It is amazing. I noticed that there is a plan for a formal garden in the front, which is interesting. But then it occurred to me that there is plenty of room for a labyrinth; labyrinths are becoming very popular in the US; there is one attached to the steps outside Grace Cathedral in San Francisco; they offer a way for the non-religious among us to practice walking mediation. The first one that is recorded was in about 1200 at Chartres in France. I think your gardeners could create it quite quickly, Pictures are easy to access on Google

Especially that God awful arched door they just butchered, ohhhh and take off those silly stick in bits that were unnecessarily added to the hall ceiling.

Ouf. Again, time to go for the bronze/taupe eyebrow pencil/powder. Those dark brown ones look more and more tattooed on. Shades of great grandma Georgette Mosbacher.

Agreed. When the dining room was dressed for Christmas it looked lovely, however, where there is nothing much in it, the colour is overpowering. It's like the strong yellow Manor and Maker used, it requires a lot of decorative pieces such as paintings and furniture to make it work.

I don't like Amanda's style but don't you dare tell anyone on Tattle I said that.

Don’t mess with our Amanda

I agree with most of what you said, however I wouldn’t call what Anna does as decor. There is absolutely no interior design in that house. Yes floors, walls, bathrooms are renovated (eg created, repaired or painted) but there is no interior design. Nearly every vlog the same painting resting on the stairs is walked past. No curtains, rugs or quality furniture- two of their guest rooms used ridiculous kitchen chairs. I’m no fan of Fanny, but I do think there is over praise for Anna and Phillip. If they can buy a yacht they can buy a nail and put a painting on a goddam wall. Still think they are readying place to sell.

So where’s tonight’s CD vlog? Someone accidentally posted the vlog for Brocunt’s Grand Tour of Europe on the CD channel.



P.S. Another new f’ing dress?????????????

Not messing . . . just don't like her style.

There's an ad on Victorian regional television targeting farm accidents and specifically quad bike rollovers . . . "it's never you, until it is".

Are you referring to these? I like them but agree they do not suit those bedrooms. And I have no idea if their's are original or not. I remember seeing them in their homes in England so I'm assuming they brought them when they came over to France.
