It is refreshing that you are both creating a house born out of everything you love and that reminds you of places you have visited. It will feel like a home and make you smile when you think of the filling, sanding and painting that you have done x

Love it! Quick tip: We also left everything packed after it was delivered, but therefore found out too late that things were damaged. So it's a good idea to quickly open the packaging to see if everything has arrived correctly.

As Portuguese I grew up watching BBC series and movies with all those lovely Downtown Abbey houses with beautiful gardens and there's this kind of romantic feeling about everything British. Victoria, it's been 2 1/2 years I came across your chanel and I just love your "joy de vivre", so contagious, and with your amazing hubbie you just make the perfect match. It's been so good watching you turning your house into a home. Much love for you both..from Portugal ♥️😘

Plates had pears and bowls had plums and mugs had apples etc - they were stunning and those prints are looking like a perfect match. Shame I don’t have them anymore! I can’t wait to see the house all finished as I love your tastes! I know you done most of the house but I would love just one video showing the before and after for each of the rooms!
