ESCAPE TO THE DREAM, RESTORING THE CHATEAU
‪@chateaudelalacelle‬
ABOUT US:
Hello! I’m Vivienne, the châtelaine of a small 19th century neo-Renaissance castle in the Loire Valley of France, which I share with my delightful (and wonderfully funny!) husband, Simon, our daughter, and -whenever possible- lovely friends and family.
This is not our first chateau! 23 years ago, we bought a much larger castle nearby, which we loved with all our hearts. However, nearly 2 decades, many happy memories, countless renovations, and several small fortunes later, we made the very difficult, empty-nesting decision to downsize. With great luck and perseverance, we found our current petit château, which we are now decorating and updating with love, humour, comfort, and -of course- antiques and art!
We adore France and its many unique facets: its people, culture, landscapes, wine, food, art, and history. We also love being surrounded by châteaux, both public and private, which we can explore together! After 20 years here, we have learned many things about living in France, renovating châteaux, and appreciating the extraordinary riches surrounding us. We originally decided to make these videos as a way to share our lives with our loved ones worldwide during the pandemic lockdowns. However, we soon realised that many others are at home alone, and it is our privilege to open our home to you, our new friends. We hope you will join us on our adventures in this exceptional location, and we look forward to sharing a little Château Love!

[@kindlydude]

And yet she seems willing to comply, or at least cooperate when the project is worthy. This was a worthy project, and while I watch many other chateau renovators, this lady, Vivienne seems like a jewel I somehow have missed till now.... her work is EXQUISITE!!! @@maureenivory342

[@tydanum]

Thank you for showing us all the stages, absolutely beautiful tiles 👏🏻👏🏻🥰

[@roywhitt3308]

Vivienne, you are such a talented artist. You are also an extremely genuine person who truly cares about and enjoys others. Anyone who can call you a friend is truly blessed. Thank you so much for sharing with us.

[@lynneh9744]

I loved your Porto vlog; it is one of my favorites in fact, but at same time, it would be great to see more of Simon and reno/diy projects. What I'd really love to see is a vlog featuring your birds on porcelain painting; the process of creating a plate from start to finish. You are very talented. I love all of your vlogs, so you really can't dissapoint me, whatever you post.

[@ChateauLove]

You are so incredibly kind. Thank you! Yes, there’s a plate video in the works. They each take so many firings in the kiln, but I’m excited to share the process with you. 🥰🏰💖

[@lindafick8450]

The tiles are absolutely beautiful!! They add a personalized touch and are a one of a kind addition for Chateau de Lalacelle.

[@ChateauLove]

Thank you, Linda! 🏰💖

[@gail-elizabethengland7853]

Absolutely GORGEOUS painting! My late Mother was a porcelain painter, so I know how much work goes into making even the simplest of designs. You are truly gifted. While I loved your Porto videos, it's always delightful to see Simon too. Blessings to you all.

[@prettyinspireddecor6787]

Vividness, the tiles are breathtakingly beautiful. They will be the perfect touch to the chateau. Bravo! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@silvanamachado5857]

Beautiful Work.

[@suzieq2958]

Vivienne, I don't very often comment on your vlogs but I just had to congratulate you on the splendid job you have done for Lalacelle. The intricacy and artistic flare with which you completed the project are absolutely awe inspiring. Besides which you must be so proud to have your work seen by their future guests. I hope you signed your work 😀💜

[@ChateauLove]

Hi Suzie! I did sign it, just (hopefully) discreetly. You are so kind. 🏰💖

[@wrinklesandsprinkles]

[@janegendreau6595]

What talent, Vivienne!! The tiles are beyond stunning!! 🇺🇸

[@rayn8740]

Vivienne, you are an angel. I adore Terry, Ash, Tracy and Jonathan. They are an amazing powerhouse of energy and creativity. I hope you had time for a tour of their personal apartment. I looks so cozy, but also has a wonderful refined elegance. Tracy's cottage was a total wreck. It is really charming too. She loves her son's sense of style, but still has her own esthetic. She is one of the hardest workers I've ever seen. I really don't know how she does it. The tiles are so perfect. My respect and admiration for you continues to grow. I'm so glad Stephanie introduced many of us to the host of different châtelains. Thanks for all that you do to share your life and French culture. ❤ from TX!

[@ChateauLove]

I agrée with everything you’ve said! I did see the upstairs apartment. It was BEAUTIFUL. We spent a while in Tracy’s cottage which is stunning, especially the kitchen. Tracy is indeed an absolute powerhouse. I always feel so grateful to Stephanie for her friendship and inspiration to all of us. 🥰🏰💖

[@lorassorkin]

Perfection! Your talent is awe inspiring. I'm so glad your viewers spotted this project and put you all in touch. No one could have done it better!

[@user-hl3ey5lb9e]

Dear Vivienne You have been gifted with the gift of giving and your work is exquisite.Wonderful to have a part of yourself in that beautiful chateau .

[@peterwhite9261]

Vivienne, the tiles are stunningly beautiful. You have a very special talent. I don't doubt there will be more requests coming your way. You may have to open your own shop. Your art is now a piece of history at Lalacelle. The color match is spot on!

[@lynsmith1881]

What a lovely, kind person you are Vivienne. It’s so lovely to see someone share their talent. There should be more of this in the world. The tiles are so beautiful.

Vivienne! Those tiles are spectacular! You are so talented! Love how all of you KZbin chateaux renovators , etc help each other. I've also been so touched at how all of the "You Tubers" in Portugal are supporting and standing behind Sindy @simplelifeportugal. They have all rallied up to support her during her very sad cancer prognosis. So nice to dee everyone supporting each other! Rainbows always appear when we need them.

[@ChateauLove]

Oh goodness… I didn’t know about her but very happy she is being supported by fellow online creators. Community is so important. 🥰🏰💖
