EP35 Repurposing-Upcycling :Wine Rack Transformation @chateau lagorce

It has been really long days lately and i don't think we have had an evening just us for way too long :) so we decided to do both at the same time filming for the vlog by night ...spending some time just us and do more work :)
Under beautiful festoon lights ...
With a bit of wine and some evening chat / fun we repurpose & upcycle and transform a wine drying rack which we found into our passion project into something beautiful and useful ...
We love a transformation so
we decided to upcycle and give a 2nd life to this beautiful object ...
Well Edd has been wanting to do this for a long time and it was the almost perfect date night ...
We had such a fun time recycling , up cycling and transforming this wine rack and we hope you like it x

THE LAMP IS SOOO BEAUTIFUL!!! VERY CLEVER!!! I LOVE THE BOTTLES ON THE LIGHTED BLACK METAL WINE BOTTLE RACK!!! 💖💖💖💖💖

[@TheasChristmasVillages]

OK you guys are hilarious - Chateau Diaries, Doing it Ourselves, Sean's World, Life of Ryan, Escape to the Dream, Chateau Memories, the Pethericks etc. I'm sure I missed a few. I laughed out loud! I love you two!! ❤️❤️

[@omaum8410]

It's a wonderful life with Peter and Anna. I support them because due to covid, they lost their chateau. But love how sweet they always speak to one another. Its refreshing to see a man being kind to his love. Great Lamp guys. Anna your such an angel. Thank you you always speak sweetly to Edd, even when he's a bit tart.

[@suzieq2958]

So sad but looking forward to seeing what they do next 😊 The only thing is that they poo poo the idea of getting financial help which is very admirable but could have helped them keep the chateau, do you agree?

[@vanessastewart4006]

Sorry meant watching you and anna

[@boessheila50]

Edd is crazed. I ❤️ his humor. Anna hes a good coworker. Edd u r a great innovater & inventor!! Great assistant for Anna Edd!! Love the ✨️✨️UNIQUE✨️✨️ LAMP. IT LOOKS STUNNING!!🎇🎆

[@liesavillandre3481]

cute picture of the cat looking at Ed's creation.

[@BordeauxLife]

It was wasn't it. xx

[@angelrays7]

Cat of approval! That was almost adorable all that hard work and the kitty is contemplating how to break a bottle or two.

[@AndersBu]

Yes , this Cat approved !

[@sharonfarris1282]

Ed and Anna. Such a lovely and fun couple with two beautiful children. I'm so happy I've started watching . Thank you.

[@BordeauxLife]

Thank you so much Sharon xx

[@Jasonmarcnash787]

I do love to listen how you both talk to each other. You truly are wonderful together. It was a very interesting vlog with outstanding results. Thankyou for sharing 😊😊😊

[@BordeauxLife]

Thanks so much Jason xx

[@margarethill1137]

Ed's so funny when he's p......sed . You have the patience of a saint Anna lolxxx

[@jacquipayne5798]

Anna you always make me smile ❤️ Beautiful inside and out. You work so hard in every way and with such passion and talent. A wife, mother, wedding planner, florist, renovator and so much more. Ed is lucky to have such support 🌺

[@denisemastromina7821]

Amazingly beautiful.. Lamp Ed is so funny when he's had a couple of glasses of wine, love the banter between the 2 of you

[@paris0551]

I laughed so much, this was pure entertainment, you’re such a fun couple 😂

[@margoarmstrong3042]

Bravo. You found your " light " at the end of a very dark tunnel💡! An extended wine o'clock made this project lots of fun...great to see you both smile again. 🌻 🇨🇦.

[@danamoss67]

Seeing you two be yourselves and interact with each other is a treat. I laughed out loud a few times. 🤣🤣

[@BordeauxLife]

Thank you Dana xx

[@deniereynolds6119]

How great it would be to sit out on a beautiful evening under the lights watching Ed work.

[@sherryrector2275]

The lights are so pretty love this outside area. Black and white always go together.

[@judithschatunowski6273]

You two are so funny! What a fabulous idea upcycling the bottle dryer and you certainly got your rhythm going spraying it, Edd! I’ve always found spray painting difficult to do without making a mess everywhere including myself! Moonshine bottles eh! Wicked man, ha ha! It really looked stunning - well done!

[@debshaw680]

That looks fantastic. The whole courtyard looks magical. I can’t imagine living in such a beautiful place. I just love your banter.

[@k.j.2481]

Your children are going to love it. The possibilities are endless to personalize it for many occasions. Good job Edd....and Anna!!😊

[@chrismaraccini8108]

It really shows how much you & Anna love each other & your chateau.

[@marshawhite2904]

Love the bottle tree!! Fantastic idea Edd…. Brilliant !! Lol

[@sorcha259]

Now that’s “The Art of French living” (plug) and this was pure “Chateau Love” … the list is endless hahaha… cheers 🍷

[@BordeauxLife]

OOOOPs forgot those ones!!! xx

[@AnAlbertaGirlAtHeart]

Bordeaux Life after all “It’s a Wonderful Life…” 😉

[@bernadettehooper4318]

Love the bottle dryer/chandelier. Vintner's Chihuly? Great banter. Funny plugs...add Escape to the Dream, Not Quite a Chateau, Rural France Journals, etc. What a great extended community.

[@marthaizaguirre6363]

Love Ana's remark "It doesn't count if I didn't see it"! 😆 Very creative upcycling! Might look great on a wide low pedastle in the center of the patio, especially at night. 👏👏👏

[@michelefolds7190]

Amazing how the cat was looking at the lights. Wonderful job you have done.

[@louisemarie816]

At last another good video from a likeable hardworking family

[@catherinegiesige7169]

I absolutely love the light fixture, and I think it will be better appreciated standing rather than hung. I love the way that cat walked up and started to look up at it. So cute.

[@jeanburgin160]

That is sweet how she is looking at the light fixture!!!

[@bettyloftus9917]

Have started all your video’s from the beginning. This one was wonderful to watch with your beautiful, imaginative, upcycled functional art! Your banter is very humorous and charming! ❤

[@arlettedumais5776]

I LOVED this. The upcycled chandelier is beautiful, but even more so is the relationship between Anna & Edd. A lot of love there.❤ And the music at the end closing out this episode nearly brought me to tears.😘 Well done!

[@sharipalmer3514]

It would be wonderful inside the wine cave. 🍷 Incredible vlog, so much skill after a bottle of wine? Wow. 😲 this was amazing.

[@nicolawarren6492]

Edd should film more when he's had a few. He's hilarious 😂

[@BordeauxLife]

LOL xx

[@laurieryan-mcdonald3222]

Agree! The two of you were very funny!

[@tammycarter7661]

I was just going to comment the same!!!!.. oh and power to us Lefties!!

[@marshawargo7238]

@@tammycarter7661 IDK about more intelligence, as Ed said, but I Do Believe Lefties R More Artistic. That's Just my observation. (I'm not left handed) 😏 I did luv all the shout-outs!

[@boessheila50]

I really like these 2... they r such hard workers and Edd is a great JOKER!!

[@joliec998]

I love the banter between you two😂. The bottle rack light would be a nice table display for a wedding at night.

[@phyllisclosser1383]

Funny, I had the very same idea. If it was on a buffet table or something surrounded by flowers, people would not be able to fuss with it. Love watching you guys!

[@sherryrector2275]

Just so you know I give a thumbs up as soon as I turn on the video because you and Ed are always funny and interesting.

[@kristenchess8293]

Good to hear y’all laughing, watching the flood videos is heartbreaking. ❤️❤️❤️

[@verasileikis17]

🇨🇦❤️I’m absolutely loving the banter! Edd is becoming noticeably more cheerful with each vlog and this helps to make each visit even more delightful than the last. Anna, you’ve appeared to be in your element right from the start, as you know. (Of course it must have been a little strange at first to be recording aspects of your life for everyone to see, but you are both now obviously comfortable and the result is so much fun to watch). This creation of light is wonderful and I’m naturally looking forward to seeing it when it’s completed and placed where it can be enjoyed out of harms way. Thank you both for this happy visit at your beautiful home.

[@theresaromero2855]

The ginger cat going to sit next to the lamp and then gazing up at it was the cutest thing! 💗🐈

[@helenahandebasquet]

My favourite episode so far, 2 people, 2 bottles of wine, a drying rack and a box of old bottles. It was a whole lot of pun! The light on the barrel would make a lovel Christmas tree too ♥️

[@aprilninthr2886]

“Oh my God. Isn’t it splendid !”Great job, Ed.

[@chrislarsen2684]

Great repurposing idea...Bottle rack with lights and bottles...TA DAAAAA!!

[@mayradell3953]

Edd, that light fixture is absolutely beautiful, original, and very artistic. You need to have someone make another frame so you can. Use the rest of the bottles because that floor lamp/chandelier is the very best for your Chateau. Congratulations

[@gailstewart825]

Oh gosh, that looks so amazing! Well done both of you. It will look great at weddings on a table as it is now surrounded by flowers or greenery. Ed you are such a lovely man, cleaning the kitchen after the floods so Anna and the children would not be upset by all the mess. They don’t make men like you anymore, that is for sure. Love your videos! Thank you for sharing your lovely life with us.

[@boessheila50]

EDD. U R HILAIIOUS. HAVE ANOTHER GLASS OF WINE. ULL MAKE US ALL GET A SORE STOMACH LAUGHING!!! This project was very Unique. And very fun. Bantering. WAS HILARIOUS. THANKS GORCTHE GREAT HUMOR WITH UR LOVELY CREATIVE LIGHT BOOZE BOTTLE TREE!!👍😃😂😍

[@lindajones8253]

Finally we can hear you both. So much better audio.

[@chrislarsen2684]

I can't believe how light it is outside at 10:00 at night there!! Wow..

[@normabare9354]

I was laughing as you were naming all the different you tube channels, only because I watch them all, so I knew who you were talking about.

[@dennishart2610]

Edd, Anna's right the lights are incredible. This was a great project! Thanks again!!

[@normamurray4450]

You two are funny....I love this particular vlog where it's just the two of you bantering back and forth and plugging your friends' vlogs! What a great job on the bottle dryer!

[@carolmcreynolds7761]

I absolutely love the light! And I absolutely love the two of you, mentioning all the vlogs was hilarious. Especially when you follow each and every one of them. Thank you for sharing your life with us. You are so enjoyable to watch❤️

[@laurariley308]

Anna’s flowers would be a stunning addition to Ed’s beautiful lamp!

[@KateriBurnett]

You had me laughing crazy, Edd I was trying to say “watch your white chairs “ how much over spray got on the chairs? Huh huh😂😆😅 great idea with the wine bottle dryer. I was so glad to be able to see the lights on the patio so pretty. Love your creation. Can you add a flower arrangement to the top would be awesome. Great idea. Hi kitties

[@Tracy_R]

I thought the same or silk flowers at the base to hide the power pack.

[@jadejohns3107]

Greetings from South Africa! You’re some of the loveliest people out there. Love your connection with each other. ❤️🍀

[@BordeauxLife]

Thank you so much Jade xx Hope you enjoyed the vlog tonight xx

[@teedee3834]

Your DIY chandelier turned out fabulous,amazing,stunning,fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well done you two!!!!!!!!!! The cat even thought it was wonderful and they are very discriminating,hee,hee,hee.🎆🎇👏🎇🎆

[@pw4075]

Title for this vlog: Ed is Lit!! I love you two together ... such a sweet couple! Great job on this; the addition of the bottles put it over the top! Ed, if you use spray paint again, it's important you protect your lungs by wearing a mask.

[@waltercook4868]

Okay, the two of you gave me a nice hearty chuckle. Thank you!

[@sherryrector2275]

The lights look better on the tier and lit it’s fabulous

[@mu77]

Wonderful job and a great way to use those old bottles. The sky at dusk behind Edd was beautiful!

[@annettewalter2273]

Spray paint if it’s used properly is such a fabulous invention isn’t it. Those long evenings are brilliant and you had a great time doing the bottle dryer. Good fun 😃😃😃 so clever to put the bottles over the lights,it looks fantastic.

[@kasiasliwa779]

The birth of a new Murano! :D. You two did a fantastic job! Well done! I love it.

[@rosemariedeschenes7013]

The lamp looks beautiful. What a fun project especially with all the banter between you guys. Too funny. Love the 😸🐈‍⬛🐾 especially the shot with the marmalade cat gazing at the lamp. I love black cats. I have a mini panther named Raven and she's a hoot.

[@irenebrown3144]

Ed you are hilarious, you and Anna have so much fun together. I love watching. It looks beautiful

[@wendyhelm9055]

That was hilarious you two really relaxed you bounce off each other. The light is beautiful also the courtyard with the lights on you have a beautiful Chateau.

[@marshawhite2904]

Had a good chuckle from you both with the other vlog names you gave a “plug” to !! You guys are so comedic !! Love all of your blogs ❤️❣️

[@metropcs7560]

With the lights that is beautiful, wow, 30 of those and an airplane can see you all from the ground at night. Great 💡 idea

[@BordeauxLife]

Thank you so much. xx

[@mabrahamlee5]

Excellent up cycling, Edd and Anna. Truly beautiful.

[@kdean9537]

Hi Edd & Anna, I just love you guys...this was just wonderful & so entertaining! Thank you! Take care, stay safe! Lots of love Kathy x 💖

[@afolsom685]

I think the light is splendid. Great recycling - turning refuse left into art. And yay for new mics. Really good sound.

[@cheriesharp234]

Oh my goodness I absolutely love what you made with the bottle dryer, it would look amazing in my garden on an evening, that’s it now my other half will be making me one of those. Well do Ed you’re so clever xxx

[@maryamoros]

I've never seen that colour of Hibiscus before! So gorgeous, soft and tender, lovely!

[@hsimpson6581]

I do Love Ed he is so fun !

[@dianetaylor9834]

Edd and Anna l felt it was only polite to join you with a glass of wine to watch tonight's vlog. You two are such fun and the banter between you made me giggle all the way through. Your newly created bottle light thingy is truly an antique of the future😂👍😘xx

[@eleniantoniou534]

I just love you both! Ed is hilarious after a bottle of wine. I love the end result. Great video! Xx

[@donnastevenson6700]

It’s beautiful. You know in order to watch these vlogs you have to have a connection to the people doing them. I personally have that connection with the two of two. Thank you Anna and Ed for these wonderful vlogs, along with your wonderful personalities.

[@claireroper4897]

Haha Edd you are hilarious when you have had a tipple! Well done Edd and Anna.x

[@nigeldewallens1115]

That was delightful and glad you did not loose your bottle 's 😜🤭😉That was well done Ed! The court looked lovely with all the lightening on! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👌

[@johanrahan3189]

I absolutely love the lamp Ed and you are right people would pay good money for it including me .Especially since those bottles are vintage Well done you !! xxxxxxxx

[@patriciathompson350]

You are right about us lefties Ed. We are among the great such Sir Winston Churchill, Barack Obama, Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci just to name a few lol. I love your light and I especially loved it when the cat sat next to and looked up at it. You should try and capture that pose in a photo. Well done 👏

[@MissCDM1979]

So funny to watch tipsy Ed doing some decorative stuff 🤣🤣🤣🕺

[@marilynnash1197]

Oh I so enjoyed watching. Love you two together. I actually liked how the light turned out. Good job the dishwasher is cleaning all those bottles!!!! Have a lovely weekend😊😊

[@claireevans2336]

Very Beautiful, the episode as a whole, the lamp just WOW with those bottles 😍, Love the chateau naming such fun - but this is definitely 'Chateau Love' 💖💖

[@MP-xf6gq]

WOW........that looks like an expensive work of Art. AWESOME job!!!

[@puzzler46]

I very much appreciate the improved sound quality. I could hear both of you quite clearly and easily without having to put the volume at the top. I really enjoyed this episode of invention and surprise DIY.

[@nolawalker4162]

How clever you are Edd slipping in the names of some of my favorite KZbin vlogs😉

[@mavep2855]

Thanks Anna and Edd for this entertaining vlog. The project was amazing to watch come together. When the bottles are clean it will be spectacular. The sound was excellent, well done! 🙏🏻❤️

[@holleym2927]

I love this new lamp!!! But I especially love the two of you working together! You are both so funny! Plugging all the other vlogs was too funny!

[@JP-bv7bf]

Just LOVE your creation of the new lights.

[@MYRitchie48]

[@janeblandford852]

[@BordeauxLife]

Thank you so much Jane xx

[@darylpenner5763]

What an amazing Wine-delier. Very clever.

[@mayradell3953]

Fantastic!!!! You could also turn it into a Christmas tree by changing the bottles to green bottles of by putting red bows on the head of the bottles. Great job and great ideas for your chateau. Great job and great progress.

[@anniedunn3313]

Stunning! I love the concept. One can never go wrong with twinkle lights and wine bottles!

[@tinamac6960]

Anna is so relaxed,never stressed..love that

[@ChristineKelly1000]

She is really amazing.

[@mayradell3953]

I love all the progress you both have done. I have never seen lavander hibiscus flowers. Thank you very much for your kindness and sharing.

[@valeriecoleman8622]

Ed is correct, people would most definitely pay big bucks for such a unique lamp it's very nice, also though the flash flood weeks ago was horrendous for yourselves and your neighbors, just behold the flowers in the aftermath, simply glorious.

[@sandrajones5281]

It’s brilliant ,shame the lights didn’t have black wires . Sound much better well done , nice to see edd more relaxed in front of the camera wines the answer 😂

[@Tracy_R]

I LOVE IT! FABULOUS!! ITS SO GOOD! Hilarious shameless plugs, just the best... sound is so much better. Watched it & no one woke up & the cat & dog were resting beside me & no one jumped... can't thank you enough!! You guys are the best!! Much love!♡♡♡

[@janiceeldred5231]

The light looks fantastic, I think the wine helped. Well done Anna and Edd, it was a hilarious vlog.

[@mariadigiovanni1168]

You two are adorable and hysterical. I laughed out loud. Great job on the lamp creation!

[@romiehutson5230]

[@AniaBumba]

I think the new “lamp” turned out amazing. Great idea, Edd!
