I’d bring the numbers closer towards the middle, so it can be read easier. Definitely color in road sign with black letters so it can be read at a distance……as with most ‘signs’ it needs to stand out so it catches the eye. Great design Steve!
You are literally putting your own stamp on the Chateau Steve! All the new additions look great and who would have thought how many uses you could use that machine for. Sarah, you seem to have been stuck with the same things I get to do in our DIY - the fiddly bits!! What a huge amount of tacks have to be removed from the bed. I love the Toile de Jouy and there’s no ‘copying’ here at all as Chateaus lend themselves to using a lot of similar themes and patterns.👏🥰
I’d love to see a video where you go through each room and share your future plans for them…for eg…Do you plan on renovating the kitchen? Are you going to change the wallpaper in the grand room?
❤The damask with the toile is gorgeous, the coiours work so well together. As much as I love toiles ❤I think throwing many different toiles together can be rather overwhelming. I'd like to throw in a vote for a stripe in similar shades too. Some bed cushions with stripes would be fab!
Toile for the curtains for sure maybe band it in the neutral brocade. Neutral brocade for the bed with band/accent of toile. Cuts the business of the toile and make the space more restful. Love that fabric. You are so creative. Thank you for sharing. ♥
Sarah your talents are out of this world....that headboard is something I can't wait to see. Steve the signage you're producing is so attractive and suits the chateau perfectly.
Hi, great idea with the kitchen clock. One could also glue everything onto a larger edged wood circle to give it a more three dimensional and weighty look. The surface of the larger circle can be finished in a rich wood stain or painted in a contrasting or matching color to your decor.
You should have gone for the toile de jouy, for the bed too. It would have made the design of the room look more coherent and classic. And yes, I know. They do have a Toile de jouy room at Lalande... BUT the good news is, that they have that, because it is a very, very classic design, that you will find in many Chateaux and homes, actually even beyond the borders of France! Many great interior designers, all over, have taken inspiration from this classic, and beautiful look 😊
You guys.... please do the headboard/footboard and the drapes all in the same fabric! The country side scenes on the one are sooooooo beautiful and would evlevate your room much more. I would advise against using two different types of fabrics at all.
I love the colors of the toile for curtains! By adding a upholstery braid on the curtain edge it will help with the bed’s upholstery. Lovely idea. Use some of the braid around the extra bed pillows to pull it all together. Best of luck 27:18
1st rule of Chateau - don't burn down the chateau!!! 😂 I love the red damask with the toile - huge I pace and the textures have so much interest together. It wouldn't be as over the top as the room at Lalande, might be more fitting for the space. It will be such a classic French atmosphere! Can't wait to see it finished some day ❤
My husband makes signs like that for a mountain bike trail and he uses resin and pours it in the letters and these signs are outside always in Texas. Hope this helps. Y’all are doing an amazing job with your Chateau.
I love the combination of all the patterns and textures. Sometimes if you are going to mix things you really just need to go over the top and it’s fantastic!!
Would you consider making a room Canadian themed?? Not blatantly so, but maybe with fabric with maple leaves etc? Paintings with Canadian scenes?? Just a thought from a Fellow Canadian who lives in Elmira ON
You two are so busy and so creative! The laser cutter is providing so many opportunities for excellent decor -- the clock is so cool!! Pavlina will guide you through the gardening (and herbs are sturdy). Can't wait to see the bed upholstery next week!
The red you picked for the bed is amazing! The only problem I have with toile curtains is you can’t really see the pattern when curtains are tied back.
I concur with the fabric selection for the small bedroom! I would love for you to be able to get ahold of the bed damask for a big bolster and a couple of shams. Those pillow accents would also look nice in the toile but that damask is so rich and luxurious! You are creating a little jewel box of a room with these fabrics! Can’t wait to see more of your progress! The bed is looking so good already! You both are so talented! 😍😍😍
I look forward to next week and the finished bed. You both have great talents. That laser is making very good use. Good luck with your planting. Pavlina has so much experience to offer you advice.
I’m so envious of your garden time!! It’s cold here again, no gardening weather for a bit here. Wish I could be there all summer to work in your gardens
Good choice on the headboard. Toile for curtains. You might find an inexpensive new modern cushion to just cheat a bit and add some texture to join everything in.
Love the choice of fabric for the bedroom and also how you are using them. I love lots of patterns in a room. As long as they are complimentary and not all of the same scale, there can be many beautiful combinations. The mint! It is so invasive. Plant it where it cannot take over your herb garden. They send out roots and new plants pop up everywhere. Once established, they are hard to get rid of, no matter how much you love mint. Find a spot where it doesn’t matter if it spreads and believe me it will! Personal experience is quite the teacher. Lily of the Valley and Chinese Lanterns are another couple of plants that will take over! Good luck!
You are both so creative and talented. Parsley is a biannual. Although it comes back for a second season, it will go to seed/finish sometime early this summer so if it's a herb you enjoy, I'd pick up another from the nursery.
One of my most used tools for the staples is a 12" screwdriver that has a very fine flat tip. I found the steel it is make of is very sturdy and the end seemed to get under a pin or a staple when nothing else could. Love the clock.
Love the mix of fabrics! I think it will look gorgeous! If you have a little toile left from making curtains you could make a cushion or 2 for the bed with a matching solid red or beige back to tie it together!
Who cares if someone else has done it, it's looking fabulous! The numerals on the clock seem a bit far out, but love the idea! Love the wooden signs for your chateau, too!
For home DIY craftynessnous I have come to use white chalk pencils to mark walls and wood. At the end, I just take a damp cloth and don't risk the shiny aftermath of eraser rubbish. LOVE you both and the amazing excitement you bring us each week.
Aww laser cutter wow you can do loads of projects with that door numbers upstairs good idea 😮 sings for the bathrooms etc outside a house sign as well so many uses.
💕You could use coloured epoxy resin for the lettering on the chateau sign💕Mixing patterns doesn’t always matter especially if the colours are similar💕The last colour combo the reds together looked great💕Use curtain fabric to make bolster oblong or square cushions to add on top of the bedding to tie the room together💕
Love the clock idea but can you cut out longer arms with the laser? Love both the toile and that rich, red damask! I use a very small, thin-ended screwdriver to pry staples out. It’s never easy though! Glad you got past that part. The room is going to look fabulous! ❤
I would use the cream for the bed and the red and cream toile for the curtains . The bed can then be moved if required in the future. Off cuts of the cream can be used for cushions etc.
On the outdoor signs maybe a marine epoxy seal for water proofing it to the elements. Love the wood burning tool! Cool idea clock in kitchen. With paint to contrast and enhance it. Love the bedroom fabric . The bed will be so elegant.
Steve!!! I would love to see how the sign would turn out in like a brass metal. Well, any metal actually lol. Curious if the heat will discolor the metal in any way. Plus, the design you did is perfect for either a more permanent material or even dare I say a larger sign for another location... 😉 I actually followed the link and was looking at them. Was shocked that it is honestly a lot more affordable than I feared it was going to be. Pleasantly surprised, but would like to see more results in the future first lol. Hahahaha, I firmly believe in learning from other people's mistakes! 😁
Glad to see a video like this again. It was great. I think the motto more is more is a good one, i like the combo you decided on, make that little room a real jewel box. I am an improv modern quilter and the more fabrics and patterns i can use in one quilt is all the better to me, 😉😁. Your little furry supervisor in the garden seemed to approve of your work. Cool new "toy" you got Steve. It will come in handy for so many things. Loved that big clock. I would be able to see it, even without my glasses. 😂
I absolutely love all of the projects that you do. The machine is a dream and you’ll definitely get your money’s worth. I know you probably already know this but just from personal experience with projects please stain sign then add paint for inside letters. My dad always told me the rule is you can paint over stain but you can’t stain over paint.
After you make the toile curtains, maybe you can use the leftover toile to make a border for a duvet cover and matching cushions. That would then tie in the bed and curtains better.
Bonjour my loves Steve and Sarah that machine is amazing very technical not sure how it works but how incredible those numerals and the centrepiece aaaha its a clock it looks fabulous up there a special feature😍😍👌The Chateau plaque looks complete the machine is going to serve you well👌Well done Sarah the garden looks alive your assistant thinks so the fragrance will be lovely and the choice of fabric for the bed and curtains just magnifique of course you both always get it spot on as always I’ve learnt much enjoyed your company Enchante my loves💖💖😘😘👌👌🌟🌟
Love the toille .. with the warm creamy brocade.. either one as curtains or bed.. but one or the other. The dark red jaquard is very deep and heavy, too weighty for the two above ..
Boy if I could get over there I’d love to work in your gardens. Your clock is so very cool! I also love working with rocks. ! Hello from St.Catharines Ontario
I’d bring the numbers closer towards the middle, so it can be read easier. Definitely color in road sign with black letters so it can be read at a distance……as with most ‘signs’ it needs to stand out so it catches the eye. Great design Steve!
i think the hands on the clock should also be longer..
Perhaps longer hour and minute hand
Either bring numbers closer to the center, or get longer hands.
Cool idea thought. 👍
You are literally putting your own stamp on the Chateau Steve! All the new additions look great and who would have thought how many uses you could use that machine for.

The toile curtains and the darker red on the bed it be so French and gorgeous
Toile for the curtains for sure maybe band it in the neutral brocade. Neutral brocade for the bed with band/accent of toile. Cuts the business of the toile and make the space more restful. Love that fabric. You are so creative. Thank you for sharing. ♥
The wall clock is so cool! Nice sign too. The bed and room will be beautiful, I like the fabrics together myself. Enjoyed. Blessings.
Love your color choices for bedding upholstery and curtains! ❤
Sarah your talents are out of this world....that headboard is something I can't wait to see. Steve the signage you're producing is so attractive and suits the chateau perfectly.
Yes I agree! You two are harder workers and very creative. I think the room will be fabulous! 😍

The bed will be fabulous in that gorgeous red fabric. Good choice.
You guys.... please do the headboard/footboard and the drapes all in the same fabric! The country side scenes on the one are sooooooo beautiful and would evlevate your room much more. I would advise against using two different types of fabrics at all.
I was so hoping you would choose that combination. The colors compliment each other perfectly.

Oh the headboard I’ve been waiting patiently to see this one. You are so talented Sarah!! 🌺
The toile is beautiful. You can use an adhesive interfacing to add to the back to give it some strength for the bed. Toile for the win.
1st rule of Chateau - don't burn down the chateau!!! 😂 I love the red damask with the toile - huge I pace and the textures have so much interest together. It wouldn't be as over the top as the room at Lalande, might be more fitting for the space. It will be such a classic French atmosphere! Can't wait to see it finished some day ❤
Lots of fun projects, can’t wait to see the bed completed, good choice on the fabric, mind you any of the fabrics were scrumptious.
My husband makes signs like that for a mountain bike trail and he uses resin and pours it in the letters and these signs are outside always in Texas. Hope this helps. Y’all are doing an amazing job with your Chateau.
Love the fabrics you chose. Adding a stripe or small print is also an option along with the prints you chose.
I love the combination of all the patterns and textures. Sometimes if you are going to mix things you really just need to go over the top and it’s fantastic!!
Love the clock! The Lazer Longer is a neat toy ro have and practical, it does a good job.
I'm so happy to see the toile made the cut! Look forward to seeing the completed frame...
Me too!!
Would you consider making a room Canadian themed?? Not blatantly so, but maybe with fabric with maple leaves etc? Paintings with Canadian scenes?? Just a thought from a Fellow Canadian who lives in Elmira ON
Lovely clock and plaques Steve 💯 and with your herbs regularly snip to encourage growth 🥰 the bedding and curtains are going to be lovely 🥰
Busy ,creative Canadians..sending love 💞🇨🇦👍😊
Steve that clock and the signs are awesome. Sarah, looking forward to seeing the finished headboard.
You two are so busy and so creative! The laser cutter is providing so many opportunities for excellent decor -- the clock is so cool!! Pavlina will guide you through the gardening (and herbs are sturdy). Can't wait to see the bed upholstery next week!
Definitely fill with color. Looks awesome Steve!!!
Yes! More colour and designs forthcoming!
The red you picked for the bed is amazing! The only problem I have with toile curtains is you can’t really see the pattern when curtains are tied back.

Like the clock brilliant idea but I would have used longer hands
I’m so envious of your garden time!! It’s cold here again, no gardening weather for a bit here. Wish I could be there all summer to work in your gardens
Y'all are so creative, what a cool project!!!! Love it
Thanks so much!
Good choice on the headboard. Toile for curtains. You might find an inexpensive new modern cushion to just cheat a bit and add some texture to join everything in.
I watch your channel and La Londe. No such thing as too much toile! Go for it!
Yeah! Thank you !
Love the choice of fabric for the bedroom and also how you are using them. I love lots of patterns in a room. As long as they are complimentary and not all of the same scale, there can be many beautiful combinations.

I did not know that. So will not be so sad that the parsley I kept indoors from last summer's garden is so tiny.
Love the patern for the bed. ❤❤
Toile de jouy! Also, our dog’s good at project managing too 😉😘
Good color choice in the end, love all of it. Room will look great.
I enjoy you guys! You are Real and show projects any one could handle. Thank you! I do love your house. And the sewing projects.
Deff the fabric choices I would have gone for it’s going to look just lovely ❤
One of my most used tools for the staples is a 12" screwdriver that has a very fine flat tip. I found the steel it is make of is very sturdy and the end seemed to get under a pin or a staple when nothing else could. Love the clock.
Beautiful job Sarah!
All toile!! Absolutely!! It’s stunning!! Second choice is toile curtain and red patterned damask for bed.
Love the mix of fabrics! I think it will look gorgeous! If you have a little toile left from making curtains you could make a cushion or 2 for the bed with a matching solid red or beige back to tie it together!
I love the toile de jouy either all or with the red damask. I don't think it will be too much.
Who cares if someone else has done it, it's looking fabulous! The numerals on the clock seem a bit far out, but love the idea! Love the wooden signs for your chateau, too!
Love seeing you guys getting into the decor projects. You are doing a beautiful job. The bedroom is going to look great.
I fully agree with you fabric choices. It’s going to be so pretty.
Love your very smart signs. Well done, they look great.
I love the fabric you choose, can't wait to see it done, you two are a force to be reckon with...always doing amazing work
Love the fabric choices. If you have more mint than you need for cooking it makes fab foliage for cut flower arrangements.
Good in Cocktails too.
For home DIY craftynessnous I have come to use white chalk pencils to mark walls and wood. At the end, I just take a damp cloth and don't risk the shiny aftermath of eraser rubbish. LOVE you both and the amazing excitement you bring us each week.
You guys are so artistic and very clever with design and have made and assembled many projects successfully , looking good
Aww laser cutter wow you can do loads of projects with that door numbers upstairs good idea 😮 sings for the bathrooms etc outside a house sign as well so many uses.
Plant the Buddleja now to take advantage of the growing season. Water in well. They are as tough as old boots! Cheers from Vancouver Island. 🇨🇦
You both are one of the hardest working couple I know! Great vlog. I love the way you accomplish everything together.
Love your work
Green side up! lmao Well done with the color choices! Love all the new items made with y'alls new toy!
Love the headboard. It looks beautiful.
I feel so sad without Billy's dailies that I am so glad that this channel is up and running. That clock is really unquie has a lot creavity.
I am always awed by your amazing talents. Your Chateau home is coming together so beautifully. ❤
💕You could use coloured epoxy resin for the lettering on the chateau sign💕Mixing patterns doesn’t always matter especially if the colours are similar💕The last colour combo the reds together looked great💕Use curtain fabric to make bolster oblong or square cushions to add on top of the bedding to tie the room together💕

Lovely sign, and bravo on the bed upholstery. What a huge job!
Love the clock idea but can you cut out longer arms with the laser?
Love both the toile and that rich, red damask! I use a very small, thin-ended screwdriver to pry staples out. It’s never easy though! Glad you got past that part. The room is going to look fabulous! ❤
Love the signs and headboard is beautiful ❣️
Guys, the numbers are too far from the center of the clock. Also, deux terraces in French is deux terrasses.
So enjoyed your creative varied video brilliant!
I would use the cream for the bed and the red and cream toile for the curtains . The bed can then be moved if required in the future. Off cuts of the cream can be used for cushions etc.
My vote: Toile for both drapes and bed. Then the damask for cushions, bedding and accents. But whatever you decide, it will look delightful!
Toile de Juoy, with the damask!!!! Love it!
Lovely gardening and signing! Just a little tip…the weeds coming through the stairs and terrace can be killed by pouring boiling water on them. 😊
I love watching you both working so well together. Lovely signs.
On the outdoor signs maybe a marine epoxy seal for water proofing it to the elements. Love the wood burning tool! Cool idea clock in kitchen. With paint to contrast and enhance it. Love the bedroom fabric . The bed will be so elegant.
Thee we click does not look in proportion the numbers are way to far away they need to be brought closer to the center.
Gorgeous fabric for the bed!
You guys have been busy! Love the clock, signs, and bedding. ❤
Steve!!! I would love to see how the sign would turn out in like a brass metal. Well, any metal actually lol. Curious if the heat will discolor the metal in any way. Plus, the design you did is perfect for either a more permanent material or even dare I say a larger sign for another location... 😉

Sign looks great Stephen!
Your upholstery video was so helpful as I’m recovering an old chair! Always love what you do!

Both signs are amazing, especially the road one. So many creative things going on, well done 👏
Love the toille .. with the warm creamy brocade.. either one as curtains or bed.. but one or the other. The dark red jaquard is very deep and heavy, too weighty for the two above ..
Nice job….it will look amazing! Love the color choices you both have made!
Boy if I could get over there I’d love to work in your gardens. Your clock is so very cool! I also love working with rocks. ! Hello from St.Catharines Ontario
Signs and herbs look great
I love the different fabrics. Too matchy matchy is too rigid. Have some fun!
Toile without question but I’d use the reverse of the last fabric for the bed head. The right side is too heavy for toile.
I had a apartment that was the exact yellow band blue is was so charming to paint it white
Love the large sign. ❤
All toile! Hello from Strathroy, ON. Love your videos.
