Love a timelapse sometimes when the job is longlasting and repetitive

[@marilynreiss2070]

The garden looks absolutely beautiful and I love your vision for it! Personally, I would like whatever you produce, but time lapse could have its uses. Your's is one of my favorite channels and I am so thankful to be invited on your journey with you...Thank you! ❤ 🇨🇦

[@NatMCI]

I personally like normal videos. It gives more of a sense of togetherness between vloggers and viewers. Love the garden Suzie and Rolls!!!

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

That's how we feel, which is why we weren't too bothered about doing the time lapse thing. It will be interesting to see the comments ❤️

[@mocarra100]

Huh that's funny because all the chateau have time lapses, all of them.

[@user-px2ys7kg9s]

The garden looks lovely. I personally like normal video’s. Timelapse sometimes can be useful and you did well Rols. I like every content you make. This is my favorite channel. Normal and down to earth. I love to be part of your journey. Best wishes Tina 😘

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thanks Tina ❤️

[@carolesmith6620]

I like the normal video's but you did well Rol's, Suzie your garden is coming on nicely indeed take care and see you both next time 💕🌼🤗

[@rt3box6tx74]

I love the look of wagon wheels leaning against a rock wall in a flower bed. I traded my wooden ones which were most valuable, for some that are all steel. They're not as old but I don't have to repair them annually. To me rusty stuff is lovely.

[@roberta1678]

I feel the same about time lapses: they are overdone, unnatural, and the noise is irritating. You two make everything interesting and I enjoy your commentary.

[@user-cv2iz8ie5l]

I like the time lapse. A mixture is great.

[@mamabearlovesbts6087]

What a great way to use your old wood and I would love to see those branches used in place of the old wood. Perfect for the garden, but probably too thick? I like the time lapse because you show in “regular motion” how it is done, then the “speedier version”. This way we get to see more of your work at your Chateau and it does not mean you have to use the time lapse for every job. The work in the Garden is beautiful and I agree with you, the outside should be priority when the weather is good. We also have had a lot of rain in Delaware, USA. Last Monday the temperature was 80 degrees and then the temperature dropped and more rain. Great plans for adding a pillar to match the other one. Also, great tool you made to remove the tiles from the roof. Looking forward to your next vlog and congratulations on over Eight thousand subscribers! You really should have more, but don’t give and up.

[@daisylovelock9553]

Whatever you do is fine by me, just keep warm💕

[@sallymoffit3751]

I enjoyed the update. Helps pass the time here. Use whatever style you prefer. 😊

[@franj.1461]

I once watched someone pointing a whole wall and puttying a ceiling on timelapse. I just used my fast forward button to get through it. Who wants to see that? Just edit all that out. I no longer follow them. I much prefer the way you do it. You start it , show us halfway through and then when you are finished. I don't mind a little timelapse here and there, but lets face it , if you don't want to stand and watch someone pointing a whole wall, why would we?

[@bdlodahl]

I think the gardens and / or parkland are lovely, especially when it has all been done by the two of you without outside help. It is remarkable what you’ve both created. I personally love watching your vision developing into reality! ❤

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thank you, we have a few things up our sleeves, well Suzie does 😂

[@inabates8919]

If the wagon wheel is to far gone to stand up, you could lay it in the garden lay the spokes, or makeup spoke. Either plant herbs between each spokes or heavily plant bulbs of different colours, to make a colour wheel.

[@lynnegunn3478]

Time Lapse background noise is shocking, can’t bear it personally.

[@sandyfry9306]

Lovely video. Such a beautiful property.

[@user-zf3yo8zu1x]

love how the garden is looking! Such hard work! I agree, if it's a long job and repetitive, like the removal of tiles, sanding, pointing, painting...etc then, a time lapse is in order, in my opinion!

[@marysutherland8570]

Thanks for doing the time-lapse in honor of your viewer! That was so kind and considerate of you! And I agree, if the sound is left on, too much chipmonk chatter can really get annoying! But with a little background music, and a very long job can be a lot less boring, yet we still get an idea of the prosess and the progress! BUT having said that, I absolutely love the peaceful and relaxing quality of your usual videos. Sometimes you explain interesting details, and we love that, but sometimes we are just "together", accompanying you as you go about your day, which doesn't always need constant talking or background sound! Like old friends... comfortable. Again I mention Suzi's beautiful growing hair, and God's healing blessings on her! Do you plan to rebuild the Donkey shed? Oh and I really do like the idea of recreating the rock wall to match the other side with the pillar and railing! That would be very nice! Mary, from WallaWalla!

[@louispretorius4896]

Don't you think he could be a dead ringer for Tony Curtis?

[@charmees6637]

I do like time lapses on for instance mowing, strimming, chopping wood so it works for that. It’s kind of weird how I like watching Rols stacking tiles, wood or working around the yard. It’s very satisfying with the end result. Great video thank you

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thank you Charmee, plenty more tiles to stack 😂😂😂

[@corricatt]

Congrats on 8K!! I liked the time lapse of planting the flowers, that would have been mundane if not sped up 😉

[@Bjmc4uk]

I like some time lapses as we see much more accomplished in a viewing. Some of the very most popular château shows do use timing. Susie the yard is looking great ank Rock gardens!

[@CatcachuToo]

The timelaps was great! I do agree that they work best for certain jobs. Like removing the donkey hut tiles. And adding music over top avoids that buzzy bee effect. 😂

[@ShipCreek]

That carriage wheel would make a great herb garden.

[@hilarygribble7276]

Congratulations 🎊🍾 on reaching 8,000 🎉

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thank you Hilary ❤️

[@lisaharner3720]

TL have there moments but if they are too fast I can’t follow them well as they lose the sense of time and I lose interest. Yours was nicely done! You are making wonderful progress on the shelter.

[@pattimeredith9621]

You have your own style of video. ..well liked. A time lapse here and there would be nice to see a project straight through. But in my opinion no need to change much. You do a great job showing us your work

[@mocarra100]

That's what I was talking about not a full-time lapse just on the mundane long jobs.

[@user-zz7tx1bv7c]

I like both but don’t like time lapse over used as they make my head spin after a couple of minutes. Well done for giving it a go x

[@jennifermccolm2509]

I find it very calming watching your vlogs. I have ADHD so i need your pace. Thank you

[@tuesdaycharlie159]

I think the time lapse with the rocks is especially good.

[@mariaortega8702]

I personally loved the timelapse!!! have a good week! looking forward to seeing your progress on the donkey tiles xxx

[@donsmith7575]

I think the metal rim of wagon wheel would make a good flower bed boarder

[@user-tw9uv9ht7r]

😅 I have enjoyed your videos you both work well together.

[@rozbarber3195]

I don’t mind the odd time-lapse but whatever you decide is fine with me. Your garden is looking beautiful. All your hard work is paying off. Nettles and shorts definitely do not work together!

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thanks Roz 😄

[@themainer1267]

Congrats on your goal. I'm sure you'll continue your success.

[@KeithWiggins-xc1sf]

The Lavenders look stunnning .

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thank you Keith 😊

[@user-Chris-91754]

Garden is coming on lovely 👍

[@normamurray4450]

The normal ones are my favourite, however I can see where if you're building multiples of something, a little speeding up might allow more time for other surprises? Just a thought. Gosh, I love how your garden is coming along i leaps and bounds. We're experiencing the same weather here in Vancouver, B.C., cold and sunny one minute, then rain....the world seems to be upside down.

[@LindaStraub58]

Maybe a time lapse ever once in a while but not everyday. I enjoy your video just the way they are. Congratulations on 8,000!

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thank you Linda, that seems to be the general consensus ❤️

[@fourtails1192]

Hey guys 😊 personally i prefer normal videos but i guess TL works sometimes . The garden is coming along nicely Suzie 😊If Rols keeps up this pace , we shall soon see a new Donkey house + Donkeys😁 ✌

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

😂 🤣 Thank you ☺

[@annettesharrock1236]

Nice vlog I enjoyed watching . Well done Suzie and Roles Take Care.Loved watching😘😘

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thanks Annette ❤️

[@mocarra100]

I was the first one here to (like) 😁 now that's how you do a video, well done! This way we get to see more work going on. I just can't get enough of these channels. My son has a KZbin channel where they discuss different things and he was talking the other night about me he goes I know Mom all you ever want to do is watch your Chateau channels with your gardening and house renovations lol because I don't catch his every time lol it was a great video. Much love from Oklahoma USA Jackie 🇺🇸💖

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Hopefully you will like it 😂😂

[@mocarra100]

@@chateaucitadelleducavalier I like the video and it was a great time lapse. I'm talking about showing a time-lapse if it's a long job not the whole video I was reading the comments. Like Susie said when you're doing the barn and that kind of stuff and like the first of the video that's when time lapses to me are appropriate.

[@lisac1110]

Rofl somwtimes it would be nice to speed up like that in real life rofl love your real time vlogs more so relaxing all the best 😊❤😊❤

[@peterwhite9261]

Congratulations on 8K subscribers. I don't mind a time-lapse for long jobs like the roof tiles. I watch all of what you both do anyway.❤

[@Tony-InLosAngeles]

I agree with you on the TL but sometimes they work nicely. ❤#teamdonkeytile 😅

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thanks Tony

[@kooran2027]

Congrats on 8000k 🎉. As for time lapses, it's your choice. I find on other channels they're too long and I get bored. 🤷‍♀️. I'd say keep on doing what you're doing. 😁

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thank you Kooran 🤗

[@daynight4902]

best

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thank you ❤️

[@patriciathompson350]

I love your videos however you wish to present them. Your garden is beautiful and the rockery is awesome. Love the wheel near the wall. Have you got any crafts on the go Suzie?

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Hi Patricia, not atm, no time at present sadly ☺

[@ourfloridagarden4191]

Wouldn’t it be great if we could move as fast as a time lapse? Imagine all the jobs we could get done! LOL

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Yes, wouldn't it just! 😂

[@DB.scale.models]

With my channel I have to do time laps Because of the process of making things ,like your time laps that might be boring for some tell you speeded it up. Personally I thought you didn't do them was for longer content. Nice work, you two. Love watching you guys . Remember long Pants in the field .😅

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thank you ❤️

[@user-Chris-91754]

Love a time lapse 😊

[@janeblandford852]

Time lapses have their place for sure, but over all real time is fine. Always love your videos, thank you!

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thanks Jane ❤️

[@grammasgardenofideas5081]

in a time lapse the frame rate is stretched out far more: when played back at average speed, time appears to be sped up. .... fun.😂

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thanks for watching ❤️

[@jandolph7509]

I really enjoyed your opening today. You have made such improvements in the appearance of your place. It looks so tidy and clean. The time lapse is nice. Would like to see more of them. The bread oven pavers look nice. Might be a good area to add a bench or a resting chair with table. You could rest or read a book. You could place large pots with flowers along there too. I would keep the wall. It gives character to the area. Your lavender is gorgeous. Your flower beds are so nice with mulch. Mulch keeps the weeds out. Tell Rolls he no longer has white legs. He has a great tan on his legs. Looks like he has been by the pool instead of working. The wagon wheel is going to be a job. But, it will give character to wherever you place it. You work so hard each day. I hope you have a crock pot to cook your food while you do other jobs outside. I bet you guys fall into bed at night. See you later this week.

[@kathyeyesopen4078]

Over 8,000 subscribers! I’m so happy for you two❤. I just knew if they could find you they would stay! You two are so normal, hardworking and great to watch you fulfill your dreams. ❤❤❤

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thanks Kathy ❤️

[@jennichristie5264]

I had to giggle for a sec when you said here’s a Timelapse and it was still in normal speed. But then I realised you meant not quite then 😂. Looked fine to me (the Timelapse). A fast way of showing results with a fairly repetitive task. Put with a music track and all great.

[@tonjakim4070]

I love what you’ve done with the rockery!! It is looking fantastic!! Love how you’ve incorporated the unusual and interesting elements that you’ve found about into it!! Excited for you both! Way to go!

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thank you ❤️

[@kayhennessy7045]

The old wagon wheel would look wonderful in your vegetable garden, each section filled with different herbs. Just a suggestion.

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thank you Kay, it's a popular suggestion and sounds like a nice way of using it. See you next time ❤️

[@tamithirion7766]

Time lapses are ok, but like to mentioned sometimes they are not that good. Today was fine, and interesting 🙏🥰

[@garyc5483]

Congrats on reaching 8k subs. Not a lover of time lapses for the reasons you stated. Sometimes they seem like a bit of a copout to me. Would be nice if you could rescue the wheel and at least use it as an ornament. Thanks for sharing. ATB regards from the UK

[@batteredbacon]

Definitely use the time-lapse ❤

[@Mime_Mama]

Goodness me, lol time lapse looks like more work as in you doing more work! 💪 Lots of rick moving! The garden looks great! My irises are out showing off! Waiting on my peonies! Rols that looks a bit dangerous getting the roof down! 😮. Hopefully one day you will have donkeys!

[@leonasimmons162]

The property is pretty big.

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Thank you for watching ❤️

[@macmcstar]

Agree with Suzie not keen on time lapse I really prefer your way of doing it because I enjoy the dialogue. It is more intimate and personal. Like we are friends hanging out. Do not know what I am doing wrong but I keep getting this message when I try to get to your wishlist -- You were invited to collaborate on a list but the link has expired. You'll need a new link to access this list. Any ideas please?

What will use the bar for? Wood storage , equipment or greenhouse?

[@jacquelinefannin1957]

It's hard to keep everyone happy when it comes to a vlog . I personally dont like a time lapse . The speed is way too fast . Makes me dizzy . Can you do a time lapse on a slower speed 🤔 can't say I've ever seen Stephanie Jarvis do a time lapse, and we all know how successful her vlogs are 😊

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Yes, we agree, maybe slow ones occasionally. Yes, Stephanie did one on all those wardrobes. Trouble is, we haven't been on chateau diy! 😊

[@ratanashifu]

Is it possible to hire a container (for déchets) in your area? Just to let debris drop into it so as not to have pick them up twice?

[@chateaucitadelleducavalier]

Unfortunately no such thing available here
