I used to show the gifts as part of ' @The Chateau Diaries ' episodes, but you're all so very generous that we have many gifts, and if we spent the episodes opening them, we wouldn't be able to show you other aspects of chateau life! So, for those of you who enjoy watching presents being opened, and as a way to thank those of you who were kind enough to send them, I've made this new channel. Every week we will film your beautiful gifts whilst enjoying afternoon tea or aperitif together.
It is very important to me that you know that we in no way expect anyone to send us gifts. I would like to go further than that and add that, if doing so will put you in any financial difficulty whatsoever, please, please do not send us anything. Knowing that you join us by watching 'The Chateau Diaries' gives us all an enormous boost. But for those of you who have sent these incredibly thoughtful gifts, I hope that seeing us open them gives you a fraction of the joy that you've given us 💖💖💖
If you would like to see more of our life at the chateau, please go to our main 'Chateau Diaries' channel:

Our best to Pavlina, her family, friends and countrymen.
My heart goes out to you, Pavlina. Blessings and hope to all.
Sending Paulina and her friends and family our best wishes.
I just love Pavlina, and my heart breaks for her and her fellow Ukrainians. 💛💙💛💙
Such beautiful art of the cup, sunflowers 🌻 and LaLande. Perhaps it could be a present for Pavlina? She mentioned she loves blue and white and with the sunflower for Ukraine and the chateau to remind her of her time at LaLande?♥️
Sending warm hugs to Pavlina, It is such a difficult time but know that I will keep you in my thoughts and prayersXXXX
Prayers for Paulina, family, friends, and country men and women!
The altar cloth fabric is amazing. Pavlina, I am so impressed by the Ukrainians. God bless all of you.
Such beautiful & generous gifts. The gifts from the sisters were truly unique. Blessings to all Ontario Canada 🐝🇨🇦
Pavolina, you continue to be in our thoughts. Sending you all the best.
Loved watching such beautiful gifts. I love the cup paintings so authentic . Merci Chateau unwrappedxx
What fun all the gifts. Always an adventure when opening them. Thanks for sharing.
So happy my fellow Ukrainian 🇺🇦 Pavlina joined you on this cadeau. Many blessings to her and her family
Beautiful artwork!!! I love the aprons you have received through cadeaux. 😊❤️🇨🇦
All the best and good wishes to Pavlina. Our hearts are with her and her country.
Take the crocheted butterflies, soak them in starched water and press them flat and allow them to dry. You can even pin them on a piece of cardboard covered with a kitchen towel to allow them to dry in shape. If you want something stronger, you can use white PVA glue (like Elmer's) watered down a bit and do them the same way.
What a tonic! Thank you all.
❤Lots of love to all, special hug for Pavlina.
As always a lovely, pleasant time visiting with everyone at Lalande. What thoughtful gifts. Pavlina it’s so nice to see you. Please know I pray for Ukraine everyday. 💙💛🙏🏻 Stephanie you have created the perfect respite for all of us during these difficult times. I’ve been watching your channel since you were downloading in your car at night , so glad I found you and all the very special people who come to your beautiful chateau.
I really never get tired of watching these. Always so interesting to hear that people around the world are as into this vlog and have such similar feelings about it as I do. You all are just magic.
My jaw dropped when I saw our box of gifts 😄 I’m so so happy you like them. Thank YOU all for giving so much and for the opportunity to give a little back 💖💖💖
That kitchen art was amazing.
A bunch of sunshine 🌞.
So original.
@@peggyvick935 thanks so much Peggy. That one seemed to paint itself. the magic of lalande at play 😄🌻
you are very talented, lovely x
@@kirstynash9765 thank you so much 💕
Your art is lovely Selina.
God bless you Steph for inviting Pavlina share in the cadeau. You always come out of your way to show your empathy. Pavlina, God bless you. Praying for your country in Ukraine 🇺🇦 and your country men. We are with you in this trying times. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thanks for helping Pavlina!
Keeping Pavlina and her fellow countrymen and women in my prayers .Must be very hard for her .
I love watching you open all the gifts, you all deserve them as your kind, thoughtful, caring, and full of love God bless you all
Our hearts and thoughts are with all Ukrainians through this difficult time in holly Eastern! ❤️🇺🇦❤️
Enjoyed. Such beautiful gifts and art and crafts. Always amazing. Please let Pavlina know that many many people are praying for her and her family and friends and all the Ukrainian people 🙏. Love to all ❤.
Pavlina is such a sweet person - I wish I had a little sister like her 🤗
So wonderful to have Pavlina join Cadeau. I am amazed at the artistic talent displayed in the gifts sent in this vlog. So many talented and generous followers. The jewelry, the paintings, the aprons, the dish towels, etc were just spectacular. Thank you for sharing 😍😘
I saw Queen Mary's Dolls House once as well. It is beautiful. It is fully operational, the taps run with water I am told (I did not see that happening though) and even the books are real! None of it is fake! I recall that it is at Windsor Castle.
If you can fix Sister Renee's crosses onto a chain, they would make stunning necklaces also. The fabric she sent you is so beautiful! It is worthy of the Chapel's altar.
Love to Pavlina and her family and Ukraine.
Thank you for the video!
The blue and white teacup with sunflowers 🌻 is so relevant now with the Ukrainian war 😞 Just beautiful!! Much love ❤️
So nice to see Pavlina today. It has been a very difficult recent day in the Ukraine. Our thoughts, hearts and prayers remain with all. Lovely vlog with generous gifts and the art was incredible. Lovely box from Sister Renee. I am 5hinking 5he envelope is for vestments or Bible cover. The material for the dress and the altar look amazing. Get sewing! LOL! KEEP WELL. BIG HUG TO PAVLINA FROM CANADA!
The crosses you received may look fantastic on the candle sticks that came from Holland for the chapel.
A wonderful idea!😁❤🌺🌹
I totally agree with your idea they could be glued onto the front of the candlesticks it would be glorious and capture the light and The Jewels will Sparkle I pray that she has the real face of Jesus framed in a beautiful frame and blessed by a priest and she can hang that also in the chapel
Hi Stephenie, lovely video as usual, it was lovely to see Pavlina on the sofa tonight as well as the gorgeous Natty, I think Pavlina enjoyed it bless her heart, send her our love, I’m so glad she’s at the Chateau with you and all your lovely Lalandes. Philip has become a first class camera man, I can see why you love him Steph and I don’t mean for his camera skills, he’s such a lovely man and he is so in love with you! I loved the material for the chapel, so beautiful, loads of love to you all xxxxxxxxxxxx😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
So nice to see Paulina.😊
The vestment envelope would look amazing if used for the Lectern with the pocket to sit the bible on and the flap over the front for display.
who else gets beautiful cloth to make vestments and altar cloths? How cool is that! Thanks for another great vlog and all the best to Pavlina!
Beautiful gifts. Just loved watching. Cherry on top is benefit to the,charities😊
Amazing selection of perfect gifts to you all from across the globe! So delighted to see Pavlina sporting the copper bracelet, Stephanie a snazzy dress and jade glass bracelet and Nattie with her pretty earrings and print dress! The artwork and fabrics inspiring projects from chateau to chapel. Snacks, coffee and tea - I’m just so happy to see you guys rewarded and everyone expressing the same gratitude I feel for your content these past years! Im still thinking of the oyster shells- superb!
Just got through 2and a half days of stomch issues do to food poisoning....your show always gives my spirit a lift and boy did I need one today :). Thank you to all the gift senders that include interesting and colorful stories with the gifts they are such a delight to my soul. Thank you Stephanie and all the la Landers for sharing your interesting and colorful gifts with all the people of the world!
Beautiful gifts. Together doing beautiful things as you said Stephanie.Thank you for sharing.
Hello from France (you do not have a lot of french viewer don't you ?) Watching the PASKA cake Stephanie made gave me an idea, I am helping Ukranian refugees here and I am going to make a full meal for easter at home and typical basket so that they can have it for easter. Wiith a group of friends and neighbours we sent 3 bus full for Ukrainia,. . Big fan of your youtube channel. Thank you for this IDEA Good luck Pavlina
You're such a dear person to do this. Take care and Blessings.
Hello from France too x thank you for everything you are doing for the Ukranian people x
Such a happy evening spent with you. Thank you Steph.
Stunning and exquisite creations with unique artistic applications. The Australian pieces with the tea cups and coordinated pieces are lovely. So many pieces stand out in this collection. The live and sincerity you each impart each time you open your
packages oozes with love. Bravo, Stephanie and Co.❤️
Queen Mary’s dolls house at Windsor Castle. We did a video of this. We were walking in dim light and the whole house was in the middle of a large room. You walk around the dolls house. The paintings were oils, stunning
Amazing, I'm from Missouri which is on the southern border and I''ve been to the retreat. It is a wonderful peaceful place.
Once again such lovely well thought gifts and some really talented people - the fabric for the chapel totally stunning -
Such a lovely vlog again ladies and Phillip. Sending hugs to Pavlina and hope she's taking time for herself. ❤️X
Hey Fiona,how are you doing
In my culture it is traditional to wear the Jade bracelet on your left hand for luck and tranquility! In this cold spring it is a wish of mine for all the LaLanders to feel the warmth and peace you provide to all of us at home through your videos themselves. Love from an equally cold Alberta, Canada.
For the butterflies, my grandmothers made a thick sugar syrup and dipped the crochet pieces in it and arrange them in sort of 3D and let them dry. In this case you could arrange them on cups or bowls , anything to give them a nice shape as though flying and then you could hang them over a table for Easter or a summer meal outdoors. My Nans made fine crochet doilies and stood up the border in ripples then arranged a crystal bowl with a huge Peony floating in it. A way to celebrate the short season that Peony’s bloom I guess 🤣😂. The one I remember in particular was a rich dark pink with a little greenery and Babies Breath springs . I so enjoy watching the videos, thank you for taking the time to share them with us. 🥰❤️🙋🏼♀️
Sugar syrup! Might it have been a cornflour starch?
As soon as I saw them I also thought of sugar syrup. My nanna taught me how to use it on doilies and then later on the lace at the bottom of net petticoats which I wore under circular skirts when I danced to rock and roll in the 70's ( often to music from the 50's)
Those painted shells may get ruined if you use them to scoop out bath salts. The roughness of the salts may scratch the paint off of the shells. Maybe you can tuck them into nooks, put them in books shelves, on side tables instead? Just a thought. I love the bird dress! Everyone is so generous, La Landers included. My heart hurts for Pavlina and all Ukranians right now. Much love from Washington State, U.S.A. ❤️
It's a shame but you maybe right, it would be good to put them to good use
Stephanie, I also saw Queen Mary’s dollhouse when I visited Windsor Castle and it was exquisite. It was hard to imagine that all the tiny books in the library were actual written copies of originals in miniature!📚 Philip, I wore original wooden clogs with the leather tops in my childhood when I did highland dancing, which included the ‘waltz clog’ dance. (Although ours was in Irish costume not Dutch.)🤭😅🥰
Thinking about you and yours Pavlina...I wish you well throughout these terrible times. Steph you have brought a smile to my face again as you literally play "dress up' with some of your wearable gifts.....love it!
Thanks everyone involved once again in this vlog.
I am always delighted to watch everything you post. Especially pleased to see the return of the longer format for this one again.
Stay safe.
Love from Brisbane Australia.
It's very important that you let people stay with you for a safe place. I am so deeply grateful to see your videos keeping up the great work.
I think my favorite thing was the cherubim shell. But I collect angel things, and my favorite colors are blue & white & gold. I also liked the dollhouse spode.
I was looking at these shells on etsy today !
Such beautiful art in so many forms 🤩 Big hugs 🤗🤗🤗 to keep you all warm. 🤗🇺🇦💙💛💜
Just watched the baking of bread... Lovely lovely gifts..... Now, I am off to bed 🙈😄
Take care Lalande's 🤗
What a beautiful clothe for the Alter also beautiful prayer beads
All the colours made me think of organizing narnia by colour. All the jewellery, fabric, costumes and such by colour, just like the christmas decorations. To envision the completion is such a rainbow. The jewellery can be hung on the inside door of the colour coordinated wardrobe just like the kitchen tools so they are all together.
Thank you Stephanie for your energy and light! Inspiring.
Once again a magical opening of presents🎁🌹🎁
Love Sue❤❤❤🇬🇧❤❤❤
So much spiritual and physical beauty here ( in the video from givers and receivers) and in the comments. Natalia your nail color is gorgeous.
Really enjoyed this Stephanie! Good luck to Pavlina, you and your country are in our prayers. Where has Nick and his family been? Seems a long time since we've seen them.
Do you realize just how many people feel you saved them during the Pandemic? Please count me among them. Thank you so much for helping to cheer us all. Hugs from Houston Texas
Those bookmarks would be lovely in library on a shelf next to the books!📚
Hello all you La Landers!! I just saw the diamond paintings you received. I have to tell you two things:
1 - please put that plastic back on the painting or two things will happen A. it will catch all kinds of dust and B. it will lose its stickiness and the diamonds wont stick.
2 - please watch, on utube, Top Ten Tips For Diamond Painting.
I'll ad a third so 3 - there's another to watch which is about the different ways to finish it so the diamonds will stay on. I've done about ten diamond paintings and after about the 5th or 6th one I found these two sites. The 10 tips video is very important to see before you start. She is so helpful.
Everybody says this but I too found you through covid two years ago, you and so many others in your circle - meaning Dan and family, the Pethericks. I lived alone for 2 1/2 years only seeing my dog and cat only. Oh, and the local deer and their "children" who came to my front door most every night seeking food. There are no underbrush for them to feed on anymore, so they make their rounds to get their food. It's a long story and would take too long to tell it but, I would love to tell you Phillip. The one I named Sugar eats right out of my hand!
l lived in the country with no neighbors. I didn't get to see my daughter, son in law, and three grandchildren. I lived in the middle of woods, a lake across the street and it is a very hilly area along with all the roads curving here and there. What's wrong with that? I desperately needed a knee replacement and couldn't get around by walking. I really wanted to go to the lake but the easiest way to get to it is 85 steps down and of course back up.
The knee replacement was not a priority and had to wait until covid was under control. I was finally able to move into a place much closer to people and places late last spring but I still couldn't walk much. The replacement happened this past September, Yea! I don't ever want to do that again any time soon. As of this past four weeks I am almost fully pain free. God is so very good!!
I love that you all brought me so much happiness while having to be alone for so long. I'm a social person and it really messed me up, but I have a big smile now! XXOO
Katherine
i remember doing this expariment in colour class many moons ago, when you look at it quickly then look away you get the negative image in your retina, that person is brilliant..........
Wonderful gifts you have received. All these work. All were so beautiful. Stephanie, I would like to make a suggestion for a charity. The American Liver Foundation. I have two great nephews who have liver disease. The older one has had his transplant and doing great but his 14 year old brother is now on the transplant list waiting for a donor. I hope this was okay for a suggestion. Thank you.
Beautiful gift from and to beautiful people. The last gift reminds me of a toile de jouy.. But than in a intelligent art version 💻.
Brigitte 🌷
Steph, "Big C" generally means cancer. Praying for the gift-giving friend of Lalande who is enduring this. 💕
@@trinahayden747 In the USA it only means cancer, I hope that’s not the case here.
As a three-time survivor, I can confirm! Sending love, courage and hope to whomever might be dealing with it now.
It was unclear to me whether she meant Covid or cancer (she is German), so I cut out more of Steph’s reaction when editing (Steph thought it was cancer).
@@carolz5090 yes I understand but hoping it was Covid …
@@philipjanssen I was just trying to be positive ….Many blessing to all…
I have such fun watching. It is cold and snowing here in Minnesota today too. Hugs! Sue
🪄 Truly magical! 🌟 How lovely that Pavlina 🌟 joined in 👥. 🤗 Always taken aback by the creativity, artistry, & generosity of your viewers. 📦 They sent some amazing art, jewelry & gifts. 💗So touched by their stories too.
💖 Stephanie you look stunning in the navy dress. You ought to look smashing in the retro mini-dress too, esp. in your sunny yellow 🟡 wellies. 💟Can't wait to see Nati in that groovy gorgeous top. The colors are perfection for her.
🍥 Too sweet to include Dana 🤍〰️ she's such an important part of the Chateaux extended family. 💝 Loved the headbands too! 😘Philip & the whole collection of darling woodland creatures🦔.
🙏 God bless Susan, Selena, Mikki, Erica, Bethany, the ✝️Sister & her order, all the other givers I missed🥺, ⚜️LaLande & all the faithful fans🕊️.

I always enjoy the gift opening. The gifts are everyone’s love being sent to you all.
I think Nati's new earrings would be perfect for her new dress!
you can sugar or starch the butterflies and hang in a window or lay flat on a table or frame them.
The crochet butterflies - you can soak them in a half glue half water solution then squeeze out the liquid, lay them on either wax paper or silicone (parchment) paper - tweak them to your liking (curved over a paper roll to mimic it in flight) or flat. You can also add these (once dry) to the creature Christmas tree or suspend them from the Murano flowered crystal chandelier.
There’s a cultural diversity of woman sitting there together. Friendship, love, and camaraderie it’s what this world needs. ❤️❤️❤️
I’m thinking of turning the heat down and really enjoying cuddling down with some soft cuddly blankets and a warm corded sweater with cabin socks.
I miss Michael and his exuberant self.
Hello ! I am also French with a mix of sicilian on my mum's side and andalucian on my dad's side plus plenty of other origins ! I love both channels ! Stéphanie, her family and friends are just adorable and fun! Team Lalande! Yeahhhhhh ! Bisous from Alsace ! 😍😘😁😀🤣🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁
It’s fun looking back at when Pavlina was new to the chateau. I’m obsessed with that tea cup she’s using. I wonder what it is. I hope Pavlina is hanging in there and I’m so glad she found Laland, or laland found her.
Finally someone sent you Vegimite ……..love it
😬 It's definitely an acquired taste. Had a beautiful 🐨Aussie roommate during Uni 🏫 who used to terrorize😳 everyone with it. She'd creep up, schmear some under the tip of your nose👃, & you'd be tortured😵💫 with the hideous smell until it faded.✌️💙🦋

Marmoset I’d a chipmunk like creature found, I know, in the Colorado Rockies. My daughter, as an adult even, was fascinated by them. She had to have a sweat shirt with them as a souvenir of our trip on a railroad up to Pikes Peak.
Loved the vlog as usual at the point you were looking at the gifts from the sisters , the beautiful material for the alter , I got distracted looking outside the window and wondered what is the building you can see in the distance. Made me think one day when you do another tour can you show views from different windows love as always x
That's the rest of the Chateau de la Lande and the wing with Nic and Marie's apartment. Stephanie and Nati are sitting on the couch in the winter salon with their backs toward the courtyard.
Thanks for that I realised it was the winter salon just couldn’t get my bearings of view outside
@@sarahpenrose9681 Most welcome. They usually film the other side of the room, so it took me a second as well ;-)
Oh wow that cloth is amazing how nice of the sister to send it perfect for chaple god bless her
Hi. Queen Mary's Doll House is at Windsor Castle. The room is so dark though! It was hard to see all the details.
Yah our country was metion with the dolphins and Whales that's so cool lovely gifts as usual and plenty of love laughter and excitment to
Lovely, joyous and touching, as always! It was so nice for Pavlina to join you! It might be neat to frame the tea towel or make a cushion of it and use it in the same room that you put the collage (Is that the right word?) in. The same image in different mediums might be nice! The sunflower belongs in the kitchen (Is there room?), or maybe the pantry hallway. Just a thought!
The butterflies would look nice if you add them to the end of a pillowcase with a corresponding colour of trim .
Thank you Stephanie, Phillip and friends once again. God bless one and all. xox 💝
Sister Renée’s gifts are lovely..the cloth has wheat and grapes, not corn. The wheat is the bread, once Consecrated, becomes the Holy Eucharist. Blessings to all!
Always love your gift opening videos… Sending much love to Pavlína. 💜🙏🏼
Hey Terri
When Jade breaks it is for a reason. Never repair. You are releasing something and remember Jade protects.
Stiffen the butterflies with starch!
Sunflower picture with tea cup is so cute
Yeeee. I am in AZ too.
I love you guys, all snuggled up!!❤
Everything was fabulous!
IDEA: For the crotchet flutter by's (butterflies) -- place them on a piece of wax paper and coat them with thin layers of mod podge (allowing them to dry completely between layers), they are often used on tablescapes in the southern region as decor pieces. It is a simple way to pep up themes when decorating for garden parties or special events. AND... the best part... The mod podge will preserve them for decades. Clean them with a damp cloth. If you ever wish to redo them -- simply soak them overnight in a bowl of HOT water mixed with 2 tablespoons of a strong dish liquid. Rinse. Dry them completely. Then reapply the mod podge. Super Easy DIY for any lace items to make them last for generations.
I think Pavlina is a dear💕
I’m so glad that she has made it to you all to be loved and supported- such a wonderful gift.
