Summer’s End at Château de Puy Vidal | Our Final Painting Workshop of 2024

[@donnadodman8865]

Dang miss you guys! More vlogs plz??? I know it gets busy, thx for sharing your journey! ❤

[@EmilyBoltz]

I love their vlogs!!!!!❤

[@scpmdt]

@donnadodman8865: I second that. More vlogs but it’s hard work with taking care of the chateau, day to day maintenance & then everything that goes on with the organising of the events. But their vlogs are one of the best. So much good content & nothing trivial or frivolous about them. Just hanging out for the next one.

[@donnadodman8865]

@@scpmdt I follow a lot of Chateau vlogs and love them all. I agree, lots of work to run a Chateau, not to mention all the vlogging and editing. Takes many hands and many hours of hard and tiring work.

I do hope you are buying the picture of the dining room that includes your father in it. It is wonderful.

[@ChristineC-nk5fd]

You have taken us on another amazing and beautiful adventure. You have brightened my life ❤

[@florentinalily]

thanks for the vlog, a joy as usual! tip for de heading the roses. Cut down to the next five leaf leaf..if that makes sense - otherwise you will get rotting. The new roses will sprout from a five leaf not a three leaf. You will see when you do it. When you are pruning in the autumn go right down to an outward facing bud. You can be brutal. and mulch well with well rotted horse manure.

[@EmilyBoltz]

My dad had hundreds of beautiful rose bushes and that was his instructions to me to me👍

[@BonBon-nm3js]

Everything is beautiful and the unpretentiousness of all five of you allows your guests to shine in the magical beauty of the stunning Chateau. How could the artist not be enthralled by the richness of everything including the vibrant and ripe hues of the delicious foods. It’s you beautiful souls that bring the whole spectacle together and make it 100% successful. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@rhondadean5455]

You all set the most beautiful tables/meals. Excited about your new chef. You have amazing artist takes my breath away. Impossible to not create beauty with such beautiful subjects. Hi Bob.

I think I fall more in love with Puy Vidal with each new episode. I am completely enamoured with all the fine touches you put into everything you do. I know it's a ton of hard work on your part, but you make it look like you live in a fairy tale. I love everything about your lives!!

[@marilynrn711]

Merci beaucoup for the new video. I love how you all work together to perfect every detail. Your guests are very lucky to have such gracious hosts. Everything detail is considered.

[@JenniferMuldoon-d6p]

Being a painter myself, this vlog was so amazing. I feel I will share it with my students as it was visually very beautiful.. I was longing to see who the artist would have been that was on the big screen in the studio space. This vlog was so entertaining. As others, I would love to see more vlogs,, although you would be so very busy in organising so many things,.... WELL DONE to you all!.. My best regards from beautiful Lake Macquarie, NSW.

[@emmawhite6986]

Found you through CD and now your videos are the ones I wait and wait for. You are so hardworking and most importantly authentic. I know you are busy people but more more more please!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow. What wonderful goings-on, and what beautiful paintings!I love the way the artist captured the individuality of each of the guests at dinner with a few key strokes. Your videos are so inspiring. I'm always thrilled to see that you've posted another one. Thank you.

[@deebowker768]

I think your chateau and the grounds are breathtaking and architecturally sublime. It’s so wonderful that you are using it in such a creative way. The workshop looked incredible. What a talented resident artist and teacher. You work so hard as a family. Thank you so much for sharing your journey and experiences. ❤

[@EmilyBoltz]

I’ve watched you guys from the very beginning and every video is a slice of heaven. If I could I’d book two weeks there just for the chance to wake up and look out at that breathtaking view. You all work so hard and have done such an incredible job- just stunning! ❤

My heart leaps with happiness when I get notifications of a new vlog. You never disappoint. Your attention to detail in every detail is so refreshing. What a talented driven family you are. It feels you have given new life to the chateau creating memories for all who enter. All the best, and enjoy some down time. Celia NZ

[@Sushi2735]

My compliments once again. Each work shop just gets better and better. The Chateau looks stunning and each and every table scape looks so warm, inviting and special. The table clothes dishes, napkins and the food amazing. You have all truly outdone yourselves.

[@Sazonman]

Luv these outdoor tables❤❤❤

[@annawinkel6509]

Your chateau and gardens would inspire anyone to paint - everything is so beautiful! What great talent you have at your retreats. Thanks for sharing!

Each time I watch a new vlog I am always amazed on how much thought & care is given to what you deliver. Just the best. Everything done with the utmost professionalism & precision. Just fabulous. You all deserve all the success in your ventures.

[@S.L.S-407]

I have never been able to understand how ppl paint. I used to watch a man on Sunday morning tv, paint for 1/2 an hour and he always completed whatever he painted. I just sat amazed not understanding how you make a picture look like something recognizable. I still draw stick ppl. Loved the video. Hope the pool gets finished, soon. : )

[@sharontihore1585]

Hi ladies always nice to watch your videos and see if there's been any changes , notices the pool is not finish yet . But you all patiently wait, love the cart table outside the studio so cute 🎉and your still all busy preparing for the work shops coming up. The chateau is still beautiful welcome the new chief Ruby so now its alot easier to set up for the work shops. Thanks for sharing awesome ladies 🎉🎉🎉

[@toddmurphy523]

Love, love, love watching the students painting. Indoors, plein air, under water (😝), I don't care. Anyway, anytime. You could tell the instructor herself was inspired.

[@tricias1227]

I love watching your vlogs and living vicariously through you! You all are so intelligent and talented with everything you have done with the chateau. So so beautiful! Your retreats look so amazing! One day…..if my dream comes true to have a small home in France (I currently live in Los Angeles) can I hire you all to help me decorate and renovate!? 🙏🏻 I love your taste! Exquisite!

[@2008foxhunter]

You are so focused, organized and hard working. Your retreats look amazing. You are clearly highly capable professional women. I have great admiration for you all and really appreciate your videos.

Oh no! Watching Julia leave what looks to be a refrigerator door open around the 27:48 mark and thinking please let that just be dry storage! Love your videos and retreats you offer! Thanks so much for sharing with all of us.

My mother was right behind the camera and closed it!😂

[@Travelling_Jonoberries]

Well hello strangers was marvellous to see another episode as we were wondering how everything and everyone was going. Great to see all is well and the pool is progressing to completion. The Chateau is looking quite well and the grounds immaculate. You all look in good health and spirit and we all wish you the best, take care, be safe and God Bless you all. 😇👍🙏🏰

[@rhondalockrey9592]

Every vlog is so beautiful the scenery the table settings the gardens its amazing how your family has come together so well to pull off all these jobs that create everything such personal touches & talent with every event! We always want to see more lol

[@MnGirl1994]

Please, please don't make us wait another month for a video!!!! Did the pool people come? Is it done? Thanks for the beautiful video!

[@ladyofthechateau]

The pool people didn't come until after the workshop ended! We will show you the current state of the pool, in the next episode, and we wont make you wait a month for it ;)

[@equatorialjourney4478]

Agree ….wish you could do a weekly vlog as the irregularity is confusing and probably not good, either , for the algorithm which will help you generate income . Hopefully your business strategy for 2025 will factor in this option . Maybe Penelope could be responsible for compiling some daily footage of you all as u go about your week at glorious Puy Vidal . You have spoilt us with your beautiful chateau and lovely family and we want to see you grow and succeed xx

[@probstnatalie]

My cat demands to go outside and in when he wants, he basically has us trained... He sleeps inside every night, but he'll be damned if we don't let him in and out 25 times a day... HAHAHHA

[@MilesJohnson-t8w]

Hello chateau puy vidal, I love your videos and I do subscribe and have followed your family journey. Love love everything you all do from the restoration to the amazing art retreats! As iam no expert however your Chanel seems stuck at 28 k and should grow not only to help out with your business but you have o much content. My I suggest more frequent shorter catchup kind of weekly experience. I've seen other volts take off like Dan's chateau de chumont and of corse Stephanie Jarvis. Just a suggestion. I'll follow you guys no matter, as I think your sensational!!

Welcome back girls, and Papa ❤❤

Every second of this video was delightful. Thank you.

[@ownerlandlord4654]

Maybe during your off season you can do a summary of your first few years at yr chateau. What u have learned, obstacles, successes, future plans? I started to watch yr channel, then stopped and took a look back now but not too many videos since. Not sure why?

[@Tigerlilart]

I’m so excited about the pool, it’s going to be fabulous!

[@charlotter.morrill6503]

You have taken on and are surviving beautifully, a huge project. And you seem to be enjoying it, even if it is difficult to keep all the tops spinning. K do hope you are enjoying it. Looks like all your careful planning is working out.

[@debtheguest3109]

The chateau looks beautiful. Very talented painters. Looks like another successful workshop.

Fantastic vlog! Will look forward to your next one as you lead up to Xmas! Can you believe it! 2024 and all your planning has come to fruition!

[@ellebelle8515]

Wonderful art instructor producing a high level of work from the artists. And your chef, Ruba! I'm sure that you got a an excellent variety of food, including Mediterranean/Lebanese, which are among the best. You also definitely have one of the most beautiful and unique chateau properties, inside and out. Well done.

Google ‘Reading the morning paper’ which is a book written about Lydia Cassatt, sister of Mary Cassatt. My mind went straight to the cover of that book( which I cannot get into this post) as you set up the model in white with flowers all around her. I THINK the cover picture may have been painted by Mary Cassatt. Charming, sweet book and the cover is so reminiscent of your artist’s scenario. More later

[@moxielouise]

Hope you quickly caught that open freezer door! I thought for sure Carolina would catch as she walked past

[@micheledenise2305]

U could do a commercial kitchen on the other side by ur retreat room and move ur offices upstairs! Leave the family kitchen where it is just renovate it! Then the people at ur retreat can sit out on ur patio where u have chairs and it will have ur commercial kitchen, ur painting retreat room, and easy access to ur pool...Did that help? ❤😊 love ur channel wish it was weekly or every 2 weeks 😊

[@BCRaspberries]

Ditto, missed seeing what's happening at Puy Vidal

Your Maple tree has Maple Tar Spot disease. Unsightly at the end of Summer when the black lesions appear, but not inherently damaging to the tree. It’s caused by the species of fungus called Rhytisma. The spores overwinter on the dead leaves and become active in the Spring.
