This Could Go Very Well... or Horribly Wrong!

[@nancyhauge9500]

I like the chandelier and don't think you need to change it for something more "chateauy"...it is lovely and flowery and not at all pretentious.

[@marydonohoe8200]

I absolutely agree. It balances everything in the hallway, and is a perfectly lovely design. Please don’t change it, Carole and Adrian!! Love you guys to pieces. ❤💙❤😊💥

[@redbird9658]

I thought how nice it looks too.

[@janetplanet09]

It’s so beautiful-I wonder how large it is. If it’s the right size for me, I would buy it off you.

[@marydonohoe8200]

Please don’t change that extraordinary chandelier! It balances everything, and doesn’t detract from the new ceiling work around it. It’s also lovely with the toile de jouy fabric. Carole, I’m so impressed with your taste and keen attention to detail. That dark grey on the chair frame is indeed stunning. But that sweet chandelier…😉💙💥

[@kindlydude]

I LOVE that sweet delicate chandelier too. I think you're right about not overpowering the other elements of the hallway come to think of it. A big overpowering crystal chandelier would compete with the one in the salon which is the grandest room in the chateau. But I was partial to that paler color that looked like Wedgwood blue to me on the chair & I think it blended just fine with the radiator and the fabric ...oh well. You can't win 'em all!

[@patricialugo9679]

Adrian, Carol, and lovely Beth, hope everything turns to be what’s best for you. You’re all very admired and loved.

[@lisam145]

This is my favorite Chateau channel. I have watched others but I've only subscribed to this one because it seems so genuine.

[@LifeAfterLaFerté]

Thank you 😊

[@laraizestudiosmesianicosco5436]

From Uruguay, hope you finally don't sell the chateau. Your hard work is so minute, so detailed. You deserve to keep it. ❤

[@peterwhite9261]

It is very satisfying to see Carole smile when she is content with her work. You all are nearing the end in the hallway now, and it is looking awesome. ❤

[@margaretfrosst575]

Oh my the ceiling designs is stunning.Great job Bethany you are an asset to the team. Daughter like mother .

I can't believe there are only 85k subscribers. What a brilliant channell here. I cant quit watching. You both are amazing artists. The chateau needs you.

[@ThomasDezanet]

Can't imagine the chateau without all of you! I'm very sad! Will miss you!

[@kindlydude]

They are going to pick another place to renovate ...but back in England where they can stay close to family and friends and not have to ferry back & forth. So, you can continue to follow them on YT they said. 😉☺

[@sheilahartnagle6114]

Everything is looking great, even the design on the ceiling in front of the door. And the floor is also looking amazing. 😊

[@LifeAfterLaFerté]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@silevee]

After last Sunday's news, I found it hard to start watching Wednesday's video, knowing that you're not going to enjoy all the benefits of what you're putting into the chateau. I so admire your hard work, and you have great taste Carole. I shall keep watching but what you're doing is now not going to be a labour of love but expediency. Keep your energy and motivation going in this transition phase and think of what comes next! Best wishes to you all!

[@shilohwoods4516]

Clean straight lines are such a gratifying pat on the back, aren't they? No one notices when it is perfect; but when the paint over spills, everyone notices! Good job Carole.

[@tmoore1144]

Watching the hallway being finished it makes me realize that I am going to so miss seeing the rest of the Chateau getting renovated. (sob, sob) It is such a lovely building. You are doing what your family needs for itself and we will see you moving on and renovating somewhere else, hopefully. But what of this building? Can the sales contract have a clause that you get to revisit and show updates occasionally? lol

[@LifeAfterLaFerté]

I hope so too!

[@bcislandlife9795]

I admire you carrying on with all the Reno’s now it’s listed for sale - most people would just tidy up and wait for it to sell.

[@heru-deshet359]

They won't sell until they get their price.

[@donataj2213]

The pattern on the ceiling looks nice! Adrian's almost finished the floor, and I'm sure he's happy about it. The chair looks better in a darker color fits more to the radiators. Beth, you're great at painting. I'll say it again, but the hallway is unrecognizable and it looks beautiful, and in a moment, it'll be ready. You work hard, but the effect is WOW. I greet you warmly and see you soon👋

[@gloriasmestad3803]

I can’t imagine how the two of you can keep all these projects and parts of the chateau and grounds and outbuildings straight. Your (plural) abilities to make strides in so many areas is amazing. Furthermore, all of you stay in such good humor, and enjoy yourselves! Thanks for the life lessons!

[@charlotter.morrill6503]

The thing that is keeping me from tears is imagining how infinitely grand your next project will be. Not bigger, just your great innovation and attention to detail.

[@susanshattuck4911]

The hallway is looking wonderful! Nice and clean. I love it!

[@LifeAfterLaFerté]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@puckgroeneweg115]

Everything you both doing, looks just amazing. Can’t imaged the chateau without you both…but hope we see you doing project in the UK.

[@kindlydude]

I can't imagine them without the chateau ...but I'll try!

[@kristinejohnson4636]

Love the pattern you’ve chosen for the ceiling. I do wish you could find the prefect chandelier for the hallway. You all are such hard workers and doing a beautiful job. See you on Wednesday. ❤️❤️❤️

[@heru-deshet359]

When you cover everything with a paint roller you're a painter. When you paint the details with a paint brush you're an artist.

[@letitbee7248]

The hallway is looking gorgeous!!! I can't believe how quickly it's coming together. Love that little sitting area near the stairs!!!

[@annaddavis1890]

Soo sorry that you had to make the decision to sell, but it’s not done, until it’s done & you never know what tomorrow might bring. If it’s meant to be, it will be, but things could change. Hang in there! Thanks for the great videos and look forward to seeing what the future brings for you all! 😊

[@ivonearragon]

In the last part you can see the cream and white difference, where it was filmed really close. It's nice!

C'est dommage pas de sous titres en Français. Je vous suis depuis le début, et vendre le Chateau après tout les travaux que vous avez fait cela doit être un crève cœur. Bonne continuation.

Eu estou tão longe dessa realidade se vocês, mas adoro os vídeos, assisto sempre no dia que vocês põe on-line, acho fantástico o trabalho de vocês, estou torcendo para que vocês consigam uma saída e não precisem vender o chateau, o corredor está ficando lindo lindo lindo, num mundo tão cheio de cores, as cores claras escolhidas ficaram elegantes demais, quem entrar nesse saguão, não imagina que por trás de cada porta tem um trabalho excepcional !!! Cada ambiente é único, com mta personalidade ❤️, adoro o canal

[@jeanettesantarelli1795]

I couldn't comment after listening to the video with the news of the developments that have taken place and choices that you have had to make. I needed to step back and take a breath, and process the emotions. I absolutely understand the reasons for your decision, not only that but understand how torn you must be. I pray that what is best for you is what happens in the end. Selfishly I am pulling for somehow that it ends up being you don't sell the chateau and it gets finished how you envision it. Thanks for continuing the work. Blessings

[@shelleymalone4427]

I hope that whoever buys this gem will continue to lovingly restore it and somehow allow your viewers to see the end result.

[@annettebrunette1402]

Hi. Have you considered upholstering those two chairs completely in with the plain dark blue? I think it’d look better and then, make a small roll pillow in the patterned fabric. 😊

[@kindlydude]

...or the other way around. The patterned fabric on the chairs and the pillows blue.

[@christineh5790]

Every step in the hallway renovation is beautiful, even in it’s unfinished state. Not long now until the unveiling I reckon.....?👏🥰

I love the chandelier too! It is quite elegant and suits your beautiful hallway. Well done! ❤

[@charlotter.morrill6503]

I like the chandelier too. Have you thought of painting it with the flat and lustre paints, maybe with just SLIGHTLY darker shades than those you have used on the walls and trims? That would hive it presence to substitute for size. It could be very special.

[@Venus-in-Bluejeans66]

Love the pattern on the ceiling. You made a perfect choice. It's simple and elegant.

I really like the pattern on the ceiling you decided on. Carole I love the trim you found for the chairs! The one you painted looks fantastic. That floor is looking wonderful as well. I can't believe it's so close to being done! The onions in the garden look like they're really doing quite well for so late in the season. Those marigolds are beautiful!

Hey Beth, I know exactly what you mean about cross-hatch and slip when making pottery! I had completely forgotten about doing that in Grade 7 art class (50 years ago)! I wouldn't have thought of doing that on the ceiling to help adhere the plaster casts. Great idea!!! Looking forward to seeing the anthracite chairs being reupholstered and the kitchen end of the hall floors completed... thanks for posting.

[@pmm3112]

Looking great from floor to ceiling!! Literally!! Do you have any additional molding appliqués you could use in the corners? Perhaps something roundish to put on the outside corners where the curves of the inner square are curved in? White on White will be subtle, but definitely there. It will pull out the decorative concept all the way out to the perimeter of the space. Just thinking?? 🤔🤐

You’ve worked magic with your lovely home! It’s just beautiful. Your attention to detail really makes a difference. Now, off subject, but you need to get a weed whacked to tidy up around your garden beds. lol, sorry, but that would really neaten the area up.

Sounds great!

[@kindlydude]

Thinking about it further ...I think the patterned fabric that matches the curtains would look best on both the seat and back ....but the arms of the chair could be the solid blue fabric to match the pillows also in blue. The arms often get stained over time & would show up less on the darker fabric!
