- Stephanie visits the Chateau de la Basmaignee for a few days of fun (and an unexpected party!) with Michael and family. Oh, and they embark on a crazy project to make a ludicrously elaborate bed for Titi, the dog 💙
'The Chateau Diaries' is a weekly vlog about life at the 16th century Chateau de Lalande in the heart of rural France 🏰
How in the hell am I completely obsessed with this..... I have no idea. 4 days ago I didn't even realize this was a thing going on in France. But alas, I find myself completely enthralled in this journey.
Sean Kernan omg...me too, 4 days ago...I became entranced - first looking at endless abandoned castles in France and other parts of the world, then this appeared...I’ve been binge watching since then. Happy viewing!
I haven't slept trying to catch up 😂
Ria me too! That’s how bad it’s gotten. I used to go to bed by 9...now every night it’s midnight because of this! 😂
@@beautymaven3952 Well, at least we're losing sleep over something we enjoy!
Ria yes, I agree! ☝️😊
Every girl needs a Michael! All that adventure, fun and friendship.
Stephanie and Michael make the most beautiful music together. ❤
The bed... amazing.
New sub. Fantastic, love all the magnificent antiques and the talent you all have❤️❤️❤️
Do you use black color lenses in your eyes sometimes ? You have beautiful blue eyes and that black is not becoming dear ! Looks like horror movies 🤷🏼♀️sorry I hope is just the light and I’m totally wrong 😏
I have a crush on Michael, he is such a sweetheart, a little cheeky, super talented and creative and unafraid to try new impossible tasks, and he is very easy on the eyes. You two make such sweet friends.
I love Michael's Brit accent. I could listen to him all day long. He kind of reminds me of Jude Law, both in looks and the sound of his voice. Very calming!
Eric Gen Absolutely. I hear Jude Law in his voice. He is a cutie!
Michael's family also owns a spectacular chateau.
5 years in the future here. My, how things have changed with Chateau Diaries! I realize why I fell in love with this charming show. Now, with all the characters and happenings at Lalande, the renovations of the Chateau and the Chapel, and so many adventures!
5 years in the future I’m wondering if the dog bed still exists?
This video brought back memories when Micheal and yourself did all these videos. They were hilarious 🫶🏼😁🫠
Since we're in lockdown, this is perfect to watch.
I cannot (well, I should) believe how Muchael just made that canopy out of little finds and wire lying around and then Steph makes all the fabric, within a day of finding a little cradle/bed. These 2 are genius and ultra creative together or alone.
“I’ve ordered some ostrich feathers, which are coming in the post today” Brilliant 😂
I laughed at that, too! Classic chateau emergency - not enough ostrich feathers! 😂
My mother’s wedding veil had 3 osterich feathers atop- 9/9/1939.🥰
I found these two completely separate and I have spent 48 hours binging these videos! I love this pair! Fantastic!
I’ve been a fan of both Stephanie and Michael for years. This is the video that led me to follow them both, and then their friends and family, for years. Thank you to the entire community you’ve created.
Your friendship with Michael is so sweet and entertaining to watch ☺️
😊😊😊
Get you a friend who enthusiastically demands to help make a lit a la polonaise with you
Wow love the dog bed, was envious of that stash of fabrics and odds and ends. Great video.
I’m very envious of their store rooms - they’re full of treasures! 😍
Your diaries are amazing and in my humble opinion better than the TV DIY SHOW. Cannot get enough of as it is full of fun and enthusiasm.
Thank you so much, it makes me very happy to hear that you’re enjoying them 💛
THE DOG BED!!! OHHHHH! It's stunningly adorable! 😍🥰
5 years ago till today and I still have a crush on Michael. I think he would be the best friend!!
This was SO much fun to watch :D
@14:30 The doggie bed is beautiful and I love that you’ve made one. Elegant and necessary for older doggies like Tina. :)
What a skillful pair! Who knows what you will achieve next!?
Maybe we should try to tackle a human-sized bed next!
This is one of my top 3 fav Chateau Diaries videos of all time & I’ve returned to watch it more times than I’d like to admit. Love your adventures with Michael 🤍
I love the energy that Stephanie and Michael have! I really feel that this video perfectly captured all the fun of the ball. I feel like I was there! And that dog bed, it's the best thing I've seen all week! Hilarious and fantastic!
I LOVE how nobody has to ever rush off to a 9-5 job every morning! Idyllic! Plenty of time for creativity!!
yeah I am wondering what they all do for a living? It can't all be You tube?
Ayesha Khan Stephanie Runs chateau de lalande. Micheal is renovating their chateau and yes currently lots of TH-cam and restorations. Would love to be on their shoes to be honest! Would love to get out of a 9-5 job and do what they do. Life after all is about doing what you love and enjoy!
@@ayeshakhan950 Some have Bed and Breakfast and Weddings to pay so much anyway. But I suppose it helps if you have money in your family to help and family backing you to get started. They can live with you and you get to get yourself in order. No children to care for and this is their life. It takes money to get all the house renovated but then you often would need to rent out in some way for money, It would become a business. Unless you are just rich I guess? It does give you time to shop and create and most seem to be very creative and might have taken this in school too? But without some kind fo jb it is true it could not be done as you would have loans and taxes and the heating bills would be over the top all by itself.
Often they go into groups of people who by into ownership with them. All the various ways can work to help defray some of the cost anyway, most likley?
Yes indeed. It's perfect to watch in lockdown . Better quality than Netflix.
You guys make a beautiful couple,even through I know it will never be.
That's the loveliest dog bed ever! 🐶😊
Oh my .... I think I am in love with the both of you... and the idea of having a Chateau in the area. The problem with you all making it look so easy is that the Castles and Chateaus in your area will be snapped up by so many of us loving what you do! The secret is out!
Love the videos.... inspiring, elegant, honest and thoroughly enjoyable.
I didn't even know all of these Diaries and shows that Stephanie was doing , just stumble reading about it reading my early morning online news on CTV Canada. I've been hook, enthralled ever since just perfect for lockdown watch marathon.
The talent blooming in Chateau de la Basmaignee is extraordinary! What fun you have with your lovely friends.
They are the most extraordinarily talented family! I feel lucky they’re my friends 😊
How great it is to see the little darlings again! Thank God! You look amazing, I missed you so much! That must be heaven for you, Stephanie and Isabelle and Gerry! Enjoy every minute of it, sweet family!!!❤🥰🤗
You looked rather naughty in that vision of yellow satin!
I’m new here I’m binge watching and I find myself doing this a lot 😲😲😲🤩
There is just so much to love about this episode from your rhubarb and custard party attire, the tours of your attic “junk” rooms, snippets from your party and the dog bed to die for. What a perfect escape from lockdown.
"I had 12 beige sandwiches" this IS the ultimate lockdown video. Merci Bien Stephacie et Micheal!
I've been watching video after video for the last few hours! You're really inspiring. Your courage to dream bigger than big is fantastic. I'm enthralled. This is so different from the usual content I watch. Sending you love and best wishes 💙💙💙
Micheal is just adorable 😍
Michael reminds me of my dear departed soul mate, Miles. It’s a pleasure to see these intimate playful flirty diary entries. A real treat. Merci beaucoup. You , Michael , the gays , je vous aime 🥰
That is theee most extravagant dog bed I've ever seen! Love it! love Michael xo Thankyou for sharing Stef xo
That is the absolute most cutest dog bed I have ever seen! Also, I'm in love with Michael...what an amazing person!
“Let me show you a few antiquities”…. wish a handsome gentleman would say that too me 😉😉
So wierdly drawn to all these talented creative people Im lucky to have found you guyz.
I can't think of a better way to spend a weekend bonding with friends than a gay wedding party and sowing together a magnificent dog bed.
Love to listen to both of them - Stephanie and Michael - exchange dialogue with each other
"I just tried to brush last night's curls out. I thi k it's going to be a big hair day." Love the big hair!
There's something very PBS about this that I find absolutely addictive. Yes, PLEASE!
Steph and Michael were such great friends..now they barely see each other..which is rather sad...god knows what happened..
I was at a party last night and my friends, knowing I love all things French, asked if I had been watching this series. I admittingly hadn't however by the time I made
it home there was a link to "The Chateau Diaries". I poured myself a glass of wine and settled in. After the first video I was hooked. It was a no-brainer to hit the
subscribe button. Today I picked up on the marathon. Watching your videos, Stephanie, makes me forget about having a mortgage, car insurance. . . what have you.
I also have to say that I love your friendship with Michael. He is so creative and can do anything. The two of you are good for each other. I adore that you both love
life and no matter how complicated a task might be, you embrace the challenge and savour your accomplishments. You're the kind of people I could hang out with.
Best regards from Nanaimo BC.
Darryl
I’m so happy you found us!!! Thank your friends for me 💛 For years I was dreaming of living in a chateau whilst actually living in a small flat in London, so I’m making this series for anyone who feels as curious about chateau life as I did then!
I want to be friends with you all so badly... :-/
LOVE the dog bed project! The "ridiculousness" of it, is perfection!
I have never met anyone that likes yellow as much as this woman. I love it.
That dog bed is absolutely adorable! And how fitting for the chateau.
✨🌟Whenever these two are together MAGIC happens✨🌟
Would expect nothing less for a chateau TiTi pet. It's beautiful!
My antique french fashion dolls would kill for t=bed like that.Fantastic job.
Wow. Really enjoyed the creativity. Loved that "Don't come near my bed" growl.
You and Michael are such wonderments! Beautiful Chateau, beautiful hair and dress, amazing dog bed! Tina is a lucky pup indeed! 💗
I felt a flapper sort of vibe with Step's dress. Must be that it had very open flaps.
I only have one thing to say. "Craft Room"
Steph, you have to make one of these dog beds for Lancelot! 😍
There is only one thing comes to mind seeing Steph in that dress and you cant print it on here OMG 😍😍😍🤘🤘🤘
I was afraid she would have a wardrobe malfunction when she danced
@@lindahollander3588 me too , gorgeous lady and fantastic dress 😁👍
Enjoyed. You both looked stunning . I love the dog bed and the lil dog.
What a beautiful couple you are making with Mickael ! You seem so close and complicit 💖
so adorable making regal bed for the dog...you guys are so much fun...can't get enough of the castle...thanks for sharing
OMGosh! That bed is epic. Just watched a quick episode while eating lunch and now find the need to go through the house looking for fabrics for a dog bed.
Beautiful so enjoy 😊 so good
Beautiful chateau
Every episode makes me as excited as when I am at Brimfield at 6am hitting the fields before even the dealers are up.
The Bees have something to do with the Merovingers
I truly wish, if a few spare moments are found, someone (my favorite commentator, ms. Jarvis, the lady of the chateau) would give a nice accounting of the pillar bed. I love furniture, but I truly love the large canopy master beds, similar to the one in the background. I haven't been as fortunate to see all of the furniture located in the Lalande property. it excites me to see nice appointments around for everyone to enjoy. the kitchen at Lalande has turned into a fine gathering place, shows its comfort level, and the Spode and other blue and white have established beauty, a fine collection of wonderful shapes and beautiful colors of blues and whites. it is so beautifully presented, and I have really gotten a good deal of study and enjoyment in following the collection, the gifts that have been made, and the overall excitement and profiling of good porcelain, ceramics, and, one of my personal favorites, crockery/stoneware. I enjoy the learning, education, and study of your many interests. in an overview of presenters, you and I know what sets you apart from some of the fly-by-night (pants) presenters that come our way, and frankly, impose on their audiences. I have grown to respect your information, your purpose, hopes, and dreams w/ the chateau. I wish that mummy, who is so intelligent and well-bred, could be there more, and I would love to have met your father, his philosophy on a life well-lived, his painting history, moods, phases, etc. I understand he had interests in other mediums in art. it would be wonderful if he had some unknown lecture-type presentations on techniques or commentary on his works. I see how excited you become, as you talk about his legacy, and that always makes me happy. perhaps, in the future, you might present a program and discuss periods of his artistry. I'm thankful that I found you on TH-cam. again, I love the textile sections of which you speak on occasion. I am planning a trip to Limoges and to the little shop and museum featuring the toile du Jouy and the dress of the era. currently, my plans are looking as if they will be realized for the week of May 21, 2021. I'm planning to spend 7-8 days at the Chateau de la Basmaignee if I am able to get a room for 16-17, and the stable facilities for me and 2 executive assistants. from there, we will be going on some buying trips near Rennes, Brittany, and the French coast. then on to Limoges, and a little town south, southwest from Limoges. I would love to stop over at Lalande. I'm sure the unannounced numbers might be a problem, and, of course, the covid mess. still, if permitted, we could take a day tour. I am a master chef, and I will be bringing 2 of my personal chefs to prepare meals for our party. perhaps, the 3 of us could whip up something for you, your live-in residents, and any visiting guests you have at the time. of course, the treat would be taken care of by me. we will be traveling w/ state of the art travel buses, equipped w/ commercial kitchens, dishwashers, refrigerators, freezers, microwaves, induction, convection, and infrared ovens, and all the kitchen appointments anyone needs. I'm a trained oratorio singer, I am very proficient in piano performance, trained classical organist. many of my employees and technologists are extremely talented in instruments, vocal performance, etc. several are antiquités specialists, multi-media specialists, fashion consultants, and buyers, and several are web/computer experts and engineers. I live in Paris for about half the year. I have lived there 11years, as of next month. several of these people I have based in Paris. I have a home in Memphis, TN, a place in Manhatten, and a chalet in the Colorado mountains. if you will, give it some thought. I know how busy you are, and the likelihood of a rather impromptu gathering is pretty much out, but we could have some real fun, and I would love to meet you. Mr. Petherick has no maid service nor in-house catering or personal chef services; therefore, we are bringing some of my people to help w/ the needed service. tow of my house managers jumped at the opportunity, as did two of my personal maids. the chefs are my personal employees. one lives in Paris and one is coming from the U.S. actually, we are all on working vacations. buying trips, , sightseeing, food excursions, tours, work-oriented initiatives, etc. they will get a big vacation and surprise after we finish this first set of activities. most like to gamble, they like 24-hour activities, nightlife, and some money in their pockets, so all are going to be graced w/ the monte. I don't care for such, but they have 10 days of debauchery and whatever. I am going to take 8 days on the train through Norway. beautiful lakes, fjords, country, and little houses there. I'm looking forward to some relatively slowed down living. I need to get your address and an email. I purchased some Joy parfum for Nati, who purchased a beautiful bed jacket. I asked about the location of its purchase, and she was kind enough to post it on one of the videos. I purchased 7 of them as Christmas presents for ladies and girls that love beautiful articles of clothes. Nati was so wonderful in making the piece flow, and she was so good at showing how she felt and how it made her feel, I purchased the "JOY" for her. my mother wore this as her signature scent. I always think of here when a lady passes me who is wearing it. usually, I tear up, for she died an untimely and unexpected death a few days after her 50th birthday. she was a breathtakingly beautiful woman. I realize that many ladies and younger women may not want to wear the scent, as they feel it is for the mature or older woman. of course, the top notes almost put me into a state of dysfunction. I adore floral scents, especially those of rose, lavender, bergamot, tuberose, tea rose, lily of the valley, gardenia, and others. however, I'm not the one wearing it. watever she wants will be fine.
The reproduction bed was such a treat..surely you have inspired someone with this delightful project..happy days. ♥
My beautiful shoes, they're going to turn back into snakes!
Please do a Phantom of the Opera masquerade ball!
Love all your new plants happy gardening from Dubbo Australia 💙💓💕💙💗💙
I ironically just finished a fancy posh shabby chic French doggie bed just yesterday so about fell over watching this but I have to admit, yours topped mine- which I didn’t think was possible- I had spent so much time on it but yeah, my word girl- who can top that! Mine had big cabbage roses painted on either sides scrubbed down with a canopy of antique lace - wish I could have showed you- I know you’d have approved 💝
Omgoodness! That chest is absolutely astonishing! It's absolutely beautiful! I have an obsession with chests!
how did your boobs not fall out at 5:45?! i've been watching your vids to gain inspiration to chateau chic my house. such fun!
Hahahaha! I admit I just went back and watched that moment in the video to see what you meant! I guess Zara engineer their dresses well 😉 So happy you’re enjoying the vlogs!
If you, like me, are very booby a boob tape would help to keep the dress in place
@@SamarkandChan i love that this has popped up again! thank you for the advice. my boobs are all over the place, one's in my armpit the other's in the kitchen...
@@carawinsorhehir hahha, same ! I like the skims body tape. 😊

I enjoyed this "episode" with the party at Chateau de la Basmaignee ; not the least you and Michael shopping for suitable attire which were beautiful and to top it off Stephanie creating the elaborate doll's bed just like that; using what you had on hand....you two are so creative; it is inspiring to watch. THANK YOU!
Beautiful, Steph and Michael. What clothes u managed to find. The scarf was exquisite. It looked amazing with the outfit you were wearing. Hope to see it again. Old fashioned? We use orange, cherry, bitters, splash of soda, whiskey and white sugar. I like that you use brown sugar. Yummy!
You both looked absolutely gorgeous!
I would love that little bed for a cat bed
Yellow is your color!
I love watching you and ‘mummy’ together. You both have such an infectious relationship and I am envious. The wedding pictures are beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
