No 123. FARMHOUSE KITCHEN BUILD. Timber for workshop and Kitchen build.

[@kennethsutton282]

Budo, you're a very lucky bloke, having Tracy to help you with all the hard work. There's not a lot of women who would have the strength and endurance to put in the amount of physical effort and graft that she does. Added to that, her skills and knowledge involved in the kitchen, garden,and her handicrafts making àll the things she sells. Thàt lady is pure gold. I'm certain you know this already, and appreciate it. Imagine how much it would cost to employ someone who puts in the hours and sheer effort that Tracy does. A queen of do it DIY. You make a great team. I follow a few people doing similar projects to yours, but you two are easily yhe most interesting, and enjoyable. So glad you're back on KZbin. 👍👍

[@PhilG0BVD]

My same thoughts, what great team work. A joy to watch.

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you so much Kenneth for your lovely compliment it is really appreciated 😊 we are lucky because we are a good team and we don't winge we just get on and get it done . Bon weekend to you 🤗xx

[@susanfabian1521]

Hi Tracy! How have you been? I've been watching some KZbinrs reno kitchens & notice they don't consider which side they want their refrigerator doors to open. Sounds silly to think about it but thought I would say something. Your home & garden are really shaping up well. I love the way you & Budo are partners in everything. Best to you both. ~Susan

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

I am well Susan thank you ❤we will have a Large fridge which will open on the right and combined is the large freezer on the left . Thank you it will be a beautiful home when we are finished ❤ xx

[@peterwhite9261]

Tracy, you are amazing. You are so comfortable on that scaffold. The pointing will be beautiful. I'm glad to hear you will be doing some teaching, Budo. Between yourself and Tracy, you have a lot to teach others.

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you so much ❤ Peter yes l am good with heights as long as l am secure and safe . It is looking lovely the pointing and Budo has hand built the roof as well 😀 xx

[@dianesmith5254]

Great wood delivery, I know the needs of products, but please be careful with the loading on the trailer.😊Great work Tracy with your wonderful raking out ready to do your beautiful render❤

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you! Will do! Diane and yes it will . It is looking lovely now 😍 xx

[@zlatahume3134]

Budo I am sure you could design some attachment for the tractor to cut the lavender mechanically or see if there is something on the market. It will keep the bushes nice around round and save you doing it by hand, you could also eventually press the oil😊 Anyway you and Tracy are grafters and I wish you all the best with the build😊

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Yes lm sure Budo can Zlata and this us the plan for next year and to make products from the Lavender as well 😊xx

[@kathyeyesopen4078]

That exposed wall is going to be absolutely gorgeous! Tracy you’ve done a fabulous job as you do with Everything you do. You and Budo are really artists and so talented. I get the feeling that neither of you like to sit around doing nothing, must keep busy. Wish I had that energy! See you soon❤❤❤

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you so much! Kathy l now half way down the wall with the pointing and it looks wonderful. We are very busy people xx

[@charmees6637]

Bonjour Tracy and Budo, wow you two have gotten so much done, when you were away. The house is looking so good, Tracy you are officially my hero. I can't wait for you to get the cooker in, you are going to have a beautiful one. You will have a great workshop; anyone would be lucky to learn carpentry from you Budo your skills are second to none. Now stop and go have that beer, you have certainly earned it. Well done you two. Love from N.Y.

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Yes l agree Denise it is looking tres bon and yes thats funny 😄 😆 xxx

[@angeladresler1855]

Great video Budo and Tracey, so excited to see all that beautiful wood, thank you for all your knowledge on it too, very helpful. I will you Tracey on the chandeliers I brought one when I was 23 with my mum in bits at an antique fair but unfortunately I never put it together and it got given away. I will one day have another and restore it but I will leave that for another time and place. Love your bedroom I just want to come and stay in that pretty room, love all the colours in the cushions too, the chairs are beautiful you must be excited Tracey the lady had lovely taste. Keep well and take care. xx

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you for sharing your memories with us and that would be great if you can find one Angela 😊 would be perfect in your old school house 🤗 thank you we love the bedroom as well it is so cozy when the woodburner is on and yes she had some beautiful items xx

[@davej6625]

Great work as always. It was great to catch up in Bricocash and sorry if I held you up too probably thought I was some mad stalker.

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

[@ilsmariemcclean7141]

Hi, love the progress you are both doing on you home. So exciting👏👏Just a suggestion can you get a lavalier micophone for Tracy? It's sometimes a bit difficult to hear what she is saying.😢

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you glad you are and we are looking into it but l agree❤xx

[@AbellTo]

More amazing graft guys

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thanks Darren 😊

[@janinebell4336]

Great job guys! Was the window above the door originally bigger? It looks like there's filling under your current window

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Yes it was Janine 🥰

[@denisemastromina7821]

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

[@LimousinLife]

Great video, good work on the slabbing

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Glad you enjoyed it thank you for watching 🤗

[@phyllisburrell8661]

Question... Will you be treating the roof when you power wash the wall, since you have the scaffolding up ? This is the chance.

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Hi Phyllis the scaffold is down now but no we did mot as eventually the roof wi be changed xx

[@jandolph7509]

Tracey how do you stay so clean while working? That never happens to me. Have you always worked with Budo? You guys have so much knowledge. I have learned so much from your videos. What numbers of your videos go with the cottage two workdays a week?

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Hi Jandolph7509 sometimes l stay clean depending on what job lm doing 🤣 yesterday l was working on the potager and l looked like l was rolling in the mud 🙂 l use to do all the painting for Budo back in the UK but my job was in management for a retail company. The cottage is on hold at the moment because the electrics in the road our out dated and they won't renew them as a priority as know one is living there 🤗xx

[@CynthiaEvans-i2f]

[@jandolph7509]

How do I find your shop? Do you ship to the USA?

[@dorisbradshaw3823]

Exciting times Xx

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Yes Doris as you know being one of our love Patrons a long side lan your husband Xxx
