THE NARNIA STORAGE ATTIC!

[@shannonstevens8659]

Annalise and Dan, taking care of all the roots at the chateau 😂🌿💇🏼‍♀️.

[@teresacarle294]

😱 OMG. Hilarious...and all too true. Their 🌱occupations✂️ definitely belong in the root sector seeing how they are both involved in root wrestling. Call it their trade root. 😬 💚 Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)

[@wiggy3333]

So true! 🤣🤣🤣

[@barbibutton9619]

Ha!! Good catch. Loved it. 🌸🌺🌷💕

[@deborahreynolds1552]

Could you have Amaury build a nice big fabric cutting table in the attic or is it too dusty. Would be great to take your pattern to the attic cupboards, select your fabric, lay it out and cut it all in the one place. The table could be covered in a dust sheet when not in use to keep it clean. Just a thought as I remember you having to use the floor. Deborah, Melbourne

[@judytreischl6899]

I used an old dining room table and later two saw horses with a plywood 4’ x 8’ covered board. Makes cutting so much easier on your back.

[@Tracy_R]

BRILLIANT idea!

[@NatiHerron]

Dan didn't get away with the flowers quick enough 😂 The attic looks amazing!

[@zabelucha]

You should put a wardrobe in place of the door, so you have to walk through it to get into the Narnia room

[@ruthiepooh86]

Kirstie has such a pretty face. Her dimpled smile is contagious.

[@bethanyshepherd6454]

Completely agree! She has the most beautiful face!!!

[@ICHMUSSMALPIPI]

She seems always full of joy

[@Jacqueline-es5yb]

This is the first I am really seeing of Selmars new love and new life. I am in tears with happiness for them. I hope they do a vlog for their chateau too. Selmar deserves everything good, he has such a gentle soul. Bless him.

[@keturahcj9]

So lovely to see an old Stephanie 'Chateau Diaries' - loved it, a bit of everything. Amaury really is making a difference.

[@sandrakicklighter2735]

He is the cousin we wish we all had.

[@janegendreau484]

Mary seems like such a sweet, calm person!! Sad to see her go!! Every volunteer who comes to Lalande is so interesting, gifted and eager to help!! What a blessing for all of you!! Not forgetting Amaury...an in-house carpenter is a God send!!! USA

[@moonpie6955]

SO lovely to see Annalise, missing her in Dan's vlogs ☹️ Attic looking good, hair looking good... It's all coming together! 😊

[@rhondathomas7952]

Mary! You will be missed. You did such a great job in the attic with the fabrics. Rebecca! Wow! What a job on the trims! Love it! I also love all the wardrobes and the organization. Stephanie! You are right! Cleaning out and organizing is good for the soul! God Bless you Mary as you travel to Berlin!

[@jimm8682]

Always love to see Tatyana in a vlog, such an elegant woman, soft spoken and sophisticated. Your new hair Stephanie looks lovely, the cooks at LaLande are so talented , glad all the women ran to save the flowers. The closet shelves need liners but I guess it was decided not to put any, hopefully over time the wood does not stain the fabric.

[@debrafreake4759]

Totally agree about the shelves needing liners to prevent the fabric getting stained over time.

[@holdingstars]

Stephanie, your hair is absolutely gorgeous and the style is so flattering on you! Annalise is so talented! Thank you for sharing your life with us. I smile and laugh at least once during every episode. You and the rest of the Lalande Family are truly a delight to watch. Blessings to you all!

[@annettewalter2273]

Had a good laugh at your efforts to retrieve the flowers but they are worth saving. Annalise did your hair beautifully.

[@TarnishedTreasures1]

Best day ever! Hair done, fresh flowers, Christmas organizing, amazing food!

[@riomcgonigle]

Annalise looks stunning 🥰

[@michaelt8727]

Thank you, Stephanie, for sharing your mid-process hair and fallen tree adventure with us. The mad chatelaine look made my day.

[@bigboy77dk]

Annalise is really talented 😃 These vlogs, with all that is going on in the Chateau, are always my favourites 🙂

[@annettesharrock1236]

The attic is looking really tidy all the things in the right place makes it so easy to find things. Annalise did a lovely job on your hair Stephanie . So many pretty coloured flowers shame they will not last long. Loved watchin x

[@chrismaraccini8108]

annette shamrock It was so good to see Annalise again, she is so sweet & beautiful.

[@isabelherrera8647]

But, Stephanie still have black roots !

[@dm7761]

Annalise.. you're a star!

[@dm7761]

@Isabel Herrera... it's called a ' shadow root' 👌💯

[@chrismaraccini8108]

@@dm7761 Right, it makes the hair color look natural.

[@chrismccoy]

Yay to see Analise! These last few blogs are so much fun. Like the old ones, more natural! I’m really loving them!

[@dreamchaseruk]

Yet another lovely vlog. You can see how much you love having your cousin live with you Stephanie. You deserve as much joy as you share with others. Your vlogs are getting me through a tough round of surgeries right now. Always making me laugh out loud along with you 😊😊😊💖

[@allisonolcott1263]

Fiona, your comment touched my heart, as you are going through a lot right now you are the one lifting others, what a little gem! I hope all goes well with your surgeries and you heal quickly.

Fiona - your in our thoughts. I look for your comments to see how your getting along. Don't give up 5 minutes before the miracle 🌸🌺🌷💕

[@chantalpinsonneault1299]

Annalise, I've said it before but it is worth mentioning again: You do amazing work! Staphanie's hair looks fabulous.

[@mariak9727]

🥰I agree!! Also Annalise’s hair (and makeup) looked stunning too!💕💕

[@riomcgonigle]

Stephanie these vlogs are fantastical like the old days thanks for making them nothing beats it when you are camera woman 💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@sylviemacfarland8503]

I wish Isabel were there. I would love to hear how happy she was to see things being tidied away!

[@rose-marie7351]

It is such a blessing that your cousin moved in! He is such a kind, gentle, soul and very good worker. I see things are moving along swiftly and properly! That reminds me, what's going on with the downstairs' loo? At this pace, you fill finish BUILDING the new one before that one will be finish...? lol

[@J.Cameron.Stuart.Adams.]

I'm certain I've not missed a vlog, but I can't remember seeing any content showing the grounds in full bloom. I recall seeing a sunflower that had just revealed it's beautiful bloom, several passing glances of the courtyard, fruits and veg growing very well despite the cold wet summer, and other bits of the garden here and there......however with all of the gifts of seeds, prep last fall, sprint this spring, and long wet hours of work all summer I had hoped to see a tour of the grounds in full bloom. Please don't think of me as ungrateful. I am beyond grateful and fully aware of the tireless time spent creating these vlogs for us to enjoy... It's just that seeing bits here and there did not afford me, and perhaps others, a clear picture of the gardens splendor. I had hoped to see the magnificent grounds of the château reborn in vivid colors and textures; all thanks to planning, gifts, endless hard work, and investments. At any rate I now have an excellent excuse to watch the vlogs again......you know in the event I missed something. Not that an excuse is necessary to enjoy the vlogs once more. A second viewing will certainly allow me to take note of the background rather than the subjects themselves. Cheers!

[@sharonjackson1445]

I enjoyed this blog. I 'am a Person that did hair for years Annalise is great at what she Does. A true professional. And Your cousin is a man just like Dan of many talents.

[@l.carolparson9689]

What a genius storage solution you've devised with your collection of armoire!. Wish I had a big attic to arrange my storage as you have done.

[@mavep2855]

Congratulations on the excellent storage project in the attic! I enjoy all the wonderful characters at LaLande. Great vlog and great hairdo by Annalise.! Thanks Stephanie🙏🏻❤️

[@nikkicat71]

Stephanie i am very happy as well that Amaury is living with you. 😊❤

[@caroljollymore7345]

Hello LaLonde Ladies and flower rescuers, a suggestion, add a little foliage to your vases.

[@AnnaFarmery]

When Steph has the camera and flying round it is superb. You don’t need red bull…just watch this! There are some people who work better with a partner but for me Steph’s glow and energy is brightest when she is at the centre….and almost uses us as her partner. She just seems to bring out the glint in peoples eyes…and naughtiness!! Ps hope the new credits will include amaury….nati….cat…Dan..Philip…and kirstie

[@witchwithit2832]

[@debshaw680]

Think how much Tomas would have loved the attic project.

[@teresacarle294]

Yes, he would've loved 🦁Narnia. 🎉 Amaury, Mary, Rebecca & Stephanie are all doing an outstanding job organizing the fabric, trim, & various ornaments. 😉Tomas already built a spa space, but it got disassembled for another purpose. It only works if someone is there to manage it. 😘Hope he & his family are well. Wish the best for 🌹Mary as she departs the 🏰Chateau too. 💚 Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)

[@eamonnohalloran7588]

Whow !!! That was fun. All systems go at La Lande . Its always a joy to immerse oneself in the happenings and goings on in a house a world away in rural France for a half an hour. Stephanie you are a power house of content and interest. You are walking us all through the process of living in the present and living with intention. Thank you.

[@liesavillandre3481]

I love being organized, but it is so funny how unorganized it all gets when I am looking for something., How nice it is to have a whole attic for this reason! Your hair does look really nice too.

[@hematite2588]

Stephanie, I LOVE the deep tones in your hair! Love it! You look marvelous!

[@dianehill6126]

Marie would be happy you saved the flowers.

[@coletteretif6316]

Absolutely gorgeous trims. My uncle by marriage, his father invented "the" machine for making such trim. He supplied many of the couture houses in France. My uncle knew I loved to sew historical costumes and gave me a huge box of leftovers. Some have notes mentioning the designer for whom they were made.

[@mariak9727]

😍Thats really cool! You are very lucky🥰

[@TonyDeConcini]

Dan and the digger - I think his rear end is going to become fused to the seat. But it IS a handy tool indeed. You all have too much fun. But we enjoy watching. I hardly believe Natti is ever going to go blonde ever. Too beautiful as a brunette!! And Steph's hair looks great - Annalisse is a hair wizard (well not a witch - didn't want to imply that at all). Hair GENIUS is better. LOL!!

All true Tony, Especially about Dan and his digger!!

LOL Amaury! “You do realize I measured the play mobile.”

[@eileeng2492]

The volunteers are a serious help in getting stuff done!!

[@noellaq8056]

I’m so happy to see how well the Cosmos did. I sewed some seeds of the same variety at our new place, (plus poppies) watered them all summer long, they never flowered then. Well, all the babying eventually paid off, as they are now in full bloom … they are so beautiful. They do lean over a lot but I believe that’s part of their charm …. Delighted to see you ladies running behind Dan to grab some cut flowers for the house. ❤️❤️ I never saw any poppies though. Hope you still have the seeds and will grow some next year. I know that Stephanie loves poppies. I do like the new, organized storage in the attic. Great to have Amaury there, too! I’m looking forward to Tatyana’s reveal. Being in Selmar’s life suits her … she is looking lovelier each time ….

[@vickinoeske1154]

How good it feels to have holiday stuff neat and organized. Your hair looks great.

[@cliffhorman6846]

The attic s a wonderland to me.. behind every door is a surprise. It is magical. ladies as ever your hair cuts look beautiful. Annalisse truly knows her art. I love the progress of the pea-chicks! And great you ladies saved the flowers.

What a FABULOUS dream come true with all the cupboards sorted! LOVELY to see a vision come true. WELL DONE!

[@caroljollymore7345]

I live in Canada and when I saw you ladies harvesting mistletoe I decided to follow my hunch. With our winters fresh flora sometimes can only survive by being dried. I am pretty sure all of our mistletoe in the past has come to us dry. So I googled it and this is what it said "You can accelerate the drying process by placing sprigs of mistletoe upon a layer of borax, silica gel or even cat litter in a shoebox or other covered container, then covering the sprigs with another layer of the drying agent and closing the container. The mistletoe should be desiccated within two or three days". So good luck with saving as much as you need for Christmas!

[@barbibutton9619]

OMG...GENIUS. TY TY TY

[@sentimentalwoman4540]

Stephanie, the blue beaded trim would look beautiful sewn onto fabric to make drapes in the newly finished downstairs powder room.

[@RTCPhotoWork]

The marigolds will last in a vase of water. They will put out roots if kept near a window and with clean water. Then, you could put them in some pots in windows and overwinter them for some floral sunshine in the cold months.

[@janicerobinson2970]

[@maryannrecht7605]

Great, engaging vlog, I don't know which segment I liked more. Oh well, I have to admit, I'm sure you can guess, AMAURY. His voice would lead one anywhere and his skill with putting on "armoire doors" is unbelievable. I don't believe that one person could have got this monumental, organizing task done. It seems I saw three different women working on it plus the silver, toned "woodman". But your energy Stephanie leads everyone on. Saving the last blooms of summer was very sweet and the final bouguets were wonderful and well worth saving. It is curious and shows the big difference between male and female , how Dan was annoyed that he had to wait to destroy the flowers while Stephanie and Nattie kept running out and saving a few more. Good job too, because the little vases of Cosmos were charming. I could go on forever about this lovely visit to Chateau LaLande. Thanks.
