Final RENOVATION & RESTORATION Details in the CHATEAU Petit Salon

[@debbierudolph9489]

I love the fact that you mix colors and texture so well in a room that no specific colour or pattern is overwhelming. ❤ Your taste is impeccable. Some of the other Chatelaines should look at how you do it and take some tips. 😊

[@JourneytotheChateau]

Thank you so much!

[@onamissionize]

I love the paint colour with the wall paper coupled with the curtains, simply fab!

[@patrickjourneytothechateau9452]

Thank you very much Patricia. ❤

[@murialpack5350]

I don’t sew, but I do know that matching the pattern on two curtains is very important. If it’s not it’s comparable to unmatched wallpaper. You are quite talented at making perfect curtains! The room is beautiful! 😃

[@patrickjourneytothechateau9452]

Thank you Muriel. I used to be scared to matching patterns….. and huge curtains. Now I actually enjoy making them. Hugs from Colombe 😊😊

[@MatildeMoon]

I admire both of you for this challenging work you have done recently it is showing the hard work you put in but with love for the chateau since I have been watching the progress what a lovely curtains floors garden fantastic job beautiful Chateau take care see you both bye

[@lindamounts2193]

Oh how lovely, Patrick and Stuart. Patrick, I thought about you when I watched a new chateau vlog where they put contemporary crazy designed tiles, made for interior, all over the outside terrace and painted the beautiful stone balustrades bright glossy white! I know how we both feel about stuff like that. So, thank you both for having such elegant taste and understanding the period design.

Wow, I'm just seeing your video now Patrick and Stuart...had company staying. You two are a marvel! I've been watching your progress on your beautiful Chateau since almost the beginning and what a transformation! Those curtains, the floor, that you just completed Patrick...superb! Stuart, you have captured every moment and the music you choose, 'just fits'! I'm looking forward to seeing the video showing how the Petit Salon all came to be from the beginning to the end.

[@elizabethheatley22]

The curtains are beautiful! You both are doing a wonderful job bringing the chateau to life. So looking forward to seeing the finished room.

[@rayn8740]

Well, guys. I like the way the curtains turned out. Once in place for a few days, they'll fall and lay naturally from their own weight. My personal preference is tiebacks and tassels, because who doesn't like a bit of drama? I like a bit of Louis in my life too, so I'd be at home au Château de XVIIIe siècle. I am really intrigued by your chapel space. From what you stated as s the age, suggests has likely been the scene of several centuries of incredible history, weddings, christenings, funerals, holy days, and a revolution. Congratulations on getting the relic back. I think I understand the Catholics' reverence for the Saints. ❤ from TX!

[@patrickjourneytothechateau9452]

Thank you from the heart ❤. So kind of you. The curtains, as you said, are beginning to soften and lay beautifully. Indeed, tie backs in gilded brass or tassels….. or both in one room……. Hint……. My plan…. The chapel is truly an amazing place. Indeed, many weddings (and religious gatherings) and weekly services till 1950….. 300+ years of history. When we have some time, hopefully we can find out more in the archives in Bourges. Love from Colombe ❤❤

[@dotwillcoxson5352]

Lovely curtains and I was impressed you ironed while you sewed. My mother was a dressmaker and she turned the iron on before she started to sew. Love your channel and Chateau Love.

[@judymossip7446]

Perfection on the drapes 🤩 They have the right amount of fullness for sure so Vivian knows what she is talking about 😆 I love the cream colour against the beautiful green. ❤

[@inabates8919]

Well you two have gone and done it again, another beautiful room, the curtains are gorgeous, working well together with the wallpaper, making a cooling effect. A gorgeous room to visit. 😉❤️👏 bravo

[@charlyceestes3410]

It's so beautiful! I am not really a fan of wallpaper, but that green wallpaper is breathtaking! I love your channel!

[@patrickjourneytothechateau9452]

Thank you very much Charlyce. I didn’t like wallpaper either but here it just fits! ❤❤❤. Huge hugs😊

[@lawrencebaker2318]

Everything just absolutely turned out beautiful, with all of your hard work. Judging from on-screen, the Gilboy's appears to both preserve the age and enhance the original color of the wood. It does not make it look new, but as lovingly cared for old wood. (I hope I am making sense!) "Everything is fixable..." I hope you are not tempting Fate!!

[@patrickjourneytothechateau9452]

Good morning Larry. Thank you so much. Gilboys does exactly what you said. Without any pigments. The oils penetrate the wood and bring it back to life by nourishing it. 😊. Let’s sa6 all light fixtures re fixable 😮😂😮. Love and hugs from Colombe 😊

[@wayneenglish2658]

You are so devoted to making everything look so nice

[@penihavir1777]

The whole room looks so lovely - looking forward to the big reveal! Great that those lights work so well in that room. OK Patrick, challenge accepted - I was gifted a cute light years ago for my front porch, and I’m going to re-wire it so that I can actually use it! ♥️ The curtains are perfect. I agree, more fabric would have been too much.

[@patrickjourneytothechateau9452]

Thank you so much. I love that you will rewire the light fixture! Please keep us posted. Huge hugs ❤❤❤

[@toots4205]

So lovely how everything came together. And those curtains! Makes you want to wrap yourself in them 😊 I have to say, my favorite floors on youtube are at Chateau de Colombe! Great job guys ❤

Thank you very much. It felt great to see the room come together. Last touches! Glad you like the floors. We love them. Rustic, original and elegant all the same. Hugs from Colombe ❤

Thank you so much Marianne. The wall lights were in the grand salon (but not the right period). They have a new and perfect home now. Hugs

[@ericmcmaster1451]

Wow Patrick that was quite an ingenious trick to pull the wire thru for the light fixture. I would never have though of that. Now I have a new skill to add to my repertoire. Thank you!!!! Cheers from Toronto!!!

[@Stacia-ep9vr]

I concur with everyone's descriptors for the curtains. I like the sidebars-understated and functional. I especially like how the jacquard compliments the wallpaper, not overpowering it. This breakfast room is tres elegante! Perhaps the fig jam needs a silver bowl as a jelly jar is now not quite up to snuff? Ha! Ha! LOVE it all! Yes, Viv's style has captured your home well with words and camera angles. Surely most of us like to see the same celebration from several perspectives. ttfn

[@patrickjourneytothechateau9452]

Thank you so much. It does work so well with the wallpaper. I suppose the jam and butter needs higher end containers 😂😂😂. I completely agree with you that it is amazing to see spaces through different eyes. Always eye opening. Huge hugs and love from Colombe ❤❤❤

[@christineh5790]

Your precise curtain making is amazing Patrick, you and Stuart give great attention to detail in all your work on the Chateau. I love everything about this room, the wallpaper and colour, the curtains, the floor, the beautiful mirrors and lighting…. Vivienne’s vlog showcased all your rooms so well and I particularly liked the wide-angled shots of the rooms, showing the whole room before highlighting the wonderful objects in the rooms. It was indeed lovely to watch your Chateau being portrayed through different eyes Patrick. Last but not least may I say I adore the light wedgwood colour in the dining room and that could be in competition with the Petit Salon for best room when finished too! 💖💖

So happy for you and good to know that the Gilboys floor wax held up after your indoor water fall during that rain storm. You guys should allow them to use some of your footage as a confirmed selling point for potential customers.
