What a gorgeous home Christina and Carl have created. It was so kind of them to host you and let us get a glimpse into another part of the world. What incredible life experiences you are giving your children! Thank you all for being so gracious.
Interior is a hodgepodge of styles including all decorative Greek columns and carved ceilings. I think their French Chateau is much more curated and tasteful restoration than this eclektic manor.
What a lovely episode! It was so wonderful of your new friends to open their home to you and also allow us to come inside with you…such an amazing home, thank you to all for letting us share this experience! 🙌
Whilst this channel has given me many reasons to love it, it has now given me even more reasons, since it’s combining all my 3 favourite countries: France, England, Italy and Sweden! I love the trips you take and I get to see my favourite parts of the world from my bed in Germany whilst I wait for my new adventures to arrive. Thanks for your videos
Well, that was SUPER FUN! Isn't it great to meet other people in your "tribe!" I watched your video twice and have already watched From Hotel to Home once....and will watch it again.....too much to grasp in just one viewing! What a lovely new friendship! Anna, I think you might have some Scandanavian DNA as you tend to lean into the design style you see there! Quite and exciting video! Cheers and smooth sailing!
I enjoyed this so much, thank you for filming it. Your flea market treasures will always evoke happy memories of your trip and the lovely people you met.
I absolutely love Swedish decor. it has always been an aesthetic that draws you into it's world. thanks so much for taking us along on the house tour and the antique shopping.
And that's how the world works when you open yourself up to ALL possibilities. You make new friends and expand your world.. thank you for sharing such a lovely video today with us..
One better episode than the next! I am enjoying it so much, it’s a real pleasure to travel and discover at the same time as you! How interesting. Thank you so much Ana and Philippe! 👏🏼👏🏼❤️
To see Swedish fabrics and wall paper was very cool. I see and I'm sure Anna sees a lot of English & French designs but to see Swedish is interesting. It's very proper and simple, stripes with flowers, muted colors of cream, white, red & blues. Very interesting.
Everything in the thrift store was displayed so nicely and nothing looked like junk. Unlike ours. Good score with the brass candélabre. Boy i would want to ship back a lot.
This was one of my favs so far!! Combining the excitement of meeting kindred spirits, more renovations and excellent thrift spots that aren’t totally overpriced 😂😂
The manor house is so upscale in taste. Their ability to decorate is so layered tastefully. Definitely gifted in combining different periods in useful ways.
I collect Swedish antiques because of the simple beauty they exude. Their homes reflected the same. Many homes had painted walls and pillars because they could not afford the luxuries in the 17 hundreds that were common in France.
I love Swedish Tole/Rosemaling/Kurbits/Dala (Dalarna) folk painting! 💗💞❣ There are still a lot of ladies who practice this folk-art painting who are of Swedish or Norwegian ancestry in America ...especially in Minnesota. That's where I learned to polka and waltz and first learned about "Hambo" dancing when I moved to Minnesota in my 30's and went to barn dances/ or big halls where polka bands still played.
@@kindlydudeit's a lively folklore style, but not for manor houses. In Swedish it's called allmoge, meaning the commoners regional styles, and they differ from Skåne in the south all the way up to Norrland. You can get alot of this for very low prices here these days, certain painters names from specific places like Järvsö, Helsingland etc run high at auction as there's always the few collectors, but generally the style is out of favor (not trendy) amongst the young so out in the country or at swedish online markets they're generally really inexpensive. You could fill a container and ship and not break the bank. 😉
@@gnarbeljo8980 Swedish antiques sell for big bucks in the US. That’s why I buy directly from European/Swedish dealers. I have a few Ephraim stahl pieces. Ten years ago I saw 4 klismos chairs out a dealer in Texas and they were literally 40000 US dollars.
@@mogges this stuff is literally unwanted nowadays. Better it be valued somewhere in the world than ruined. Some things aren't allowed for export, the rest is free to purchase and bring with you.
What a lovely home and couple I like the eclectic mix of modern and antique without being too much of one or the other. I like the old ceiling coffering and moldings and painted bits :) the morning room is lovely with all those windows. That library will be lovely when everything is done something that could be done at honfleur very easily. Sure Benoit could make a library very easy. Either that or use a few armoires and add what you need in moldings ;) I can see Anna getting some retro modern sofas and recovering them ;)
Thank you for sharing, really enjoying the experience. My fathers mother came from Sweden, and went in Dec./Jan. of ‘71-‘72 which was lovely especially experiencing a winter not experienced in Southern California. Everyone said to come back in the summer, unfortunately was never able to. So, thank you again for the experience. Loving it😍🙌
I was so inspired my self Anna… It was so good someone likes shopping… Actually I loved the painting of flowers that Phillip didn’t like… You are very gracious Anna… I would’ve of said you got the boat I’ve got the picture… lol Very inspiring video… Loved their home but I love yours as it not as big… Their interior decorator was awesome and cosy…. You are getting there…. I love how people make friends it’s how we are created… Bless your family…..
With 30+ bedrooms they can have both husband and wife families under the same roof comfortably. It is wonderful to see young folks getting their hands dirty to bring the past back to life. Thanks for sharing another incredible family and manor.
O!...what absolute glorious fun!...a beautiful boat trip with your little family and then, new friends in Sweden to get to see their adventures in redoing a beautiful historical home...memories, inspiration, ...how rich!
What a nice family ! What a coincidence that you all had the same bore problem this year ! And now you’re friends ! This was a lovely vlog and thank you so much for taking us along! ❤
What an incredible adventure you are having this summer. Love seeing parts of Sweden and seeing all the wonderful places you are stopping at. Looking forward to your next stop!⛵
I'm so glad that you went and video taped their beautiful home; I love all of the woodwork and how they've redone things; what inspiration for anything that you and Phillip are still wanting to do. Loved some of the wallpapers that you saw and I kept thinking about the beautiful wallpapers that you do. Their yards and gardens were wonderful. Thank you, that was really nice to see. Hope you're having fun on the boat. (from Sandi)
Thank you for sharing the beautiful Swedish countryside. Your summer adventures are a lovely respite from the brutal heat of Texas. Blessings for safe sailing and wonderful family time ❤️
What a beautiful home and a lovely couple. So fortunate to meet this lovely family to compare renovations stories. What a magical place for kids to grow up in. Thanks for taking us along ❤❤❤❤❤
Fabulous adventures in unique places! Better than a movie by far! So real and immensely enjoyable being taken along with you! Thank you so much! Love the new beautiful boat and all your sailing adventures so far. Great that your parents enjoyed coming along. What a treat the three videos were to watch while recovering from sickness. Thank you again Philip, Anna, lovely girls and parents. 💖💖💖💖💖💖
Honestly one of the most beautiful homes I've ever seen! Love the mix between old/modern furniture, the floors, stucco, wall panels, the color choices and the mix of different materials. Feels like a cozy home while still being very stylish - would love to see more of these types of homes in Architectural Digest.
What a fantastic manor! And then shopping. Paradise indeed. Such a lovely couple they could be your brother and sister. I enjoyed every second thank you.❤❤❤👌👌👌
I'm a longtime fan of your channel - absolutely love following you guys - and I'm from Sweden (the West Coast)...This is such a treat to see you visit my country and being so appreciative of everything. It looks like you mostly got nice weather, which is great, especially on a boat. 🙂 Thank you for sharing this meeting with the manor house owners - it looked like you had a lot of fun! Save sailing!!! 🙂
What a great experience for you! Did they say they have 38 bedrooms?! Haha that's a bit much to decorate if you aren't running a B&B or hotel! 😄 Lovely grounds, and house, I especially liked that room with the view and window nook, I can imagine reading in that window. The story of the red paint on Swedish houses is kind of interesting. It's technically not paint at all. It's red earth from specigic regions where there were copper mines. Falun in the area of Dalarna has given it the name Falu Rödfärg. The red is a natural pigments from iron ore and copper, silicic acid and 21 natural minerals in the earth. It can be heat treated to produce a bright red to dark, a dark brown more common far north, and is for raw cut unplaned timber. It's everywhere in the counyry because unlike paint, its really a treatment of the wood, fully breathable, that protects from rot and mould spores. As the climates changes dramatically throughout the year, other paints create a film under which these damages occur, whereas the Rödfärg is like a pwedered layer that fully diffusive, besides the minerals giving a special glow in the light. It's documented to have been used since at least the 1500s. Binder is linseed oil which also seeps into the wood grain and conditions it. When it starts to chalk and leave red powdery residue on your hand, it's time to simply brush the facade with a bristle brush, and give it another layer. Pigments available naturally in Scandinavia that also combinebwill with lime, water and a binder were limited. The yellow had a breakthrough with a very famous Swedish architect Nicodemus Tessin junior, who came bavk from Southern Europe inspired by Italian yellow brick and convinced King Karl XIII to issue a decree to paint all large stately houses in in the capital, Stockholm yellow in 1699. From there shades of yellow spread to manors across the country, many in a more subtle orange-yelloe reminiscent of French sandstone. All these were naturally occuring ochre pigments. This very punchy yellow in the video is a much later variety popular today on any house. Sorry for the nerdiness. Just thought I'd add that for Anna who was curious abiut the design history. 😊
Truly a beautiful manor home and gorgeous property and gardens. They were so welcoming and lovely people. The architecture and details in their home are beautiful. ❤
no wonder they bought that house it is so lovely and they are doing a great job renovating it! i dont believe in coincidences you were meant to meet each other and become good friends with so much in common love it!!
Great video. Fab house. Loved the thrift shops. It must have been difficult to resist buying more, but at least you can go back and visit again. Loved your enthusiasm Anna, feel like you will go home energised to create or reimagine spaces in your lovely home. ❤
When you were in the library discussing the contrast between dining and library, it reminded me of an American architect. Frank Lloyd Wright’s interior designs often used a technique called Compression and Release. This is the practice of employing lower ceilings in one room, which gives a sense of pressure and compression, in order to create a feeling of release when you enter the next room that has higher ceilings.
@@amya8316 me too! I’m in Mesa. I love watching all the Frank Lloyd Wright videos. Lots of MCMod from realtors but I like the original restorations best. They have a mid century home tour in Phoenix. Have you ever done one? I also love watching Jenna Phipps and her boyfriend Nick in Canada!
@@SharkyJ40 I watch Jenna and Nick too! I’m obsessed with that mid century mod home of theirs. I live in Gilbert so right next to you. I haven’t done the home tours in Phoenix but definitely will check it out!
Such a gorgeous home! I love how they’ve stayed away from putting in traditional, historical soft furnishings. I find so many chateau owners do that and it looks so uncomfortable to actually live with today. It’s a home and a blend of old and new is much more interesting.
How incredible is their home and property! And as Anna said, the whole experience! So fun to watch!! Everyone looks like they had such a wonderful visit 😊
What a great video and what lovely new friends you have made. Their gorgeous manor house was a treat to tour. You are making wonderful memories! Safe travels!
Anna, I recommend checking out the Swedish painter Carl Larsson, he is the epitome of the Scandinavian 19th Century spirit, in all its cozy glory. He painted people, houses, gardens, nature, everything and you will recognise the vibe now that you´ve experienced the manor!
@@HowToRenovateAChateauCan’t recommend it enough. Karin Larsson, married to Carl, was an artist and pioneer in textile & interior design. They were given a tiny house that they increased several times. They had eight children.
Wonderful home renovation, really enjoyed the house and gardens tour. Also lovely new friends for you who were gracious enough to let us see their spectacular home. Thanks to you all for sharing!
What an inspiring video! I love watching your adventures! What incredible hosts your new Sweden friends are! Such a beautiful Manor and it inspired me to paint and move furniture around! Thanks for the journey! Have a wonderful time on the rest of your trip!!
It is so nice to see young families putting their efforts into restoring, with care, old character buildings. Thanks for sharing.
What a gorgeous home Christina and Carl have created. It was so kind of them to host you and let us get a glimpse into another part of the world. What incredible life experiences you are giving your children! Thank you all for being so gracious.
Friends are meant to inspire! It seems like you've made really amazing ones. Their manor and their property is beautiful! 😊
Anna sounds inspired and excited and Philipp mostly overwhelmed lol. Can't blame them. Beautiful house with lots of work and money behind it.
He is probably thinking of all the future thrifting and furniture shopping she'll want to do 😅 Very inspiring manor house!
Philipp was not a fun boy in the antique store,
Interior is a hodgepodge of styles including all decorative Greek columns and carved ceilings. I think their French Chateau is much more curated and tasteful restoration than this eclektic manor.
@@anonymousonlineuser6543 Absolutely. Well put
@@Motherhubbard170 He was tasked with looking after a child who would rather be somewhere else.
Just a fantastic Swedish Manor House. They took great care restoring it obviously.
Thank you for showit it to us.
What a lovely episode! It was so wonderful of your new friends to open their home to you and also allow us to come inside with you…such an amazing home, thank you to all for letting us share this experience! 🙌
Serendipity is a great descriptor. What a gift to watch the many dimensions of your life experiences. Thanks for sharing!
I think he said stupidity!
What a beautiful home and couple - thanks for sharing with us all
Thanks for watching!
When I saw the Narnia cupboard I thought that must be such a magical home for their children to grow up in, like a fairytale itself. I'm jealous 😍😍
Well,
At Tranekaer Slot, DK
they got a Narnia cupboard too…. and there is a real room behind😊😊
Whilst this channel has given me many reasons to love it, it has now given me even more reasons, since it’s combining all my 3 favourite countries: France, England, Italy and Sweden! I love the trips you take and I get to see my favourite parts of the world from my bed in Germany whilst I wait for my new adventures to arrive.

The Swedish Manor House is beautiful. Thank you for sharing this home with us.
How nice to connect with people who can truly compare notes and understand your renovation struggles.
I enjoyed this so much, thank you for filming it. Your flea market treasures will always evoke happy memories of your trip and the lovely people you met.
