#22 Making bridesmaids dresses, re-upholstery & exploring the oldest tower in a chateau.

This week I finished the sewing commission I had and squeeze in a photoshot before they are posted.
I'm working at Chateau de Bonneval at the moment, they are busy renovating their tower bedrooms and are in need of re-covering the headboards.
While I'm there I get to explore the the towers and areas closed to the public. I take a closer look at the medieval battlements and tower carpentry.
Hidden away in France is a channel showing my life in the countryside of France. As a dressmaker of whimsical fairytale dresses to living a simple life whilst trying to renovate my old farm. My love of the outdoors and nature, ancient buildings and architecture to period costumes and all things related.
Thanks for watching,

Is the Chateau yours? The wood is amazing, not too bad though for renovations, so much work though but what a place!

[@hiddenawayinfrance]

No, not mine. I am working there and it is an amazing place. Thanks for watching.
