Hullo from South Africa, i am not feeling so good tonight, i have a bit of a sore throat but watching you struggling with the curtain rings made me laugh out loud and i forgot about my throat, luv your taste, fondest wishes!
Just about everything except for how beautiful and heavy the panels are and that I already bought the drapery hooks beforehand🪝went wrong….🤣 Let’s hope the epoxy glue holds that bracket in place.
Beautiful curtains... love them I just can't get enough of all your beautiful decor& antique pieces.. please continue sharing your decor finds & ideas... thank you & have a beautiful weekend 🤗
I love the way your beautiful new curtains puddle on the floor, mine do the same in my sitting room in my English converted cart barn, here in West Devon, England. Blessings to you from Jilly & Madge the rescue greyhound. xxx
You noticed! 💌I wasn’t sure if pleated paneling should be exact to size. We have a bit of an open lip under that door and I thought the extra length can help keep out the draft. Also, the added length may give me the option to move them into another room. I believe this room has the lowest ceilings and next in height would be the largest guest room upstairs. They may work better there? I do like a bit of puddling, most especially with my thinner linen panels, it’s a romantic look, I feel. Huge hugs to you and Madge! 💕 How old is your pup?
Much more efficient! Had I counted the pleats beforehand, that rod would have been off…🤣 Prints on textiles are also difficult for me but these are minimal enough that I don’t feel overpowered.
Hello to you in SoCal! Glad you enjoyed it, Thank you! I enjoyed visiting Coronado when I lived 1 year in Solana Beach and 2 years in La Jolla. I miss the dog parks/oceans very much!
We’re glad you agree! Thank you! She’s a bit of handful with her reactivity issues but it’s easily forgiven when she’s generally such a loving and overall good mannered pup. She brings us our slippers whenever we come home! Now she’ll bring us shoes to let us know when she wants to go out…such a treat.
Its definitely got its own charming vibe and character. We hope to add a wood burning stove to the fireplace next year and remodel the bathroom in the nice few years for extra coziness.
Hello , I watched your vlog from the Philippines . I like it so much when you and your husband roaming around French countryside for antiques . You are a very good homemaker .
Glad i am not the only one who struggles with curtains 😂 deff love the new curtains i love linen fabric and love the colour and design and will be very toasty with thermal linings thanks for sharing ❤
We like reading that you like the look of them too! We’ll need a night in the cottage during the winter to feel how much warmth it retains. We are very curious with its heating efficacy.
It’s amazing how something as simple as a video can provide a little escape, isn’t it? The beauty of the curtains and the peaceful moments shared really help take the mind off things and offer a break from the daily grind.
I love this so much-and YES-pinch-pleat draperies are the pinnacle of mature decorating!! 😆 💜. They look like excellent quality drapes but they should send you many more panels because of the comedy routine you expertly staged to portray the best way to hang them professionally. ☺️ Why is it that hanging drapes is one of the worst tasks-I think it’s because it’s never instant gratification. You gotta get the ladder and all that measuring and counting. Ugh!! The end result is always worth it, but going antiquing and buying new pottery is funner and easier. Hahaha. Sent you some more pics a few days ago. I’m glad you’re feeling better, Jeni! Your fellow pottery lover, Camilla 😊
Absolutely Camilla! We couldn’t be happier with the process! I asked Justin if he’d like to help me beforehand but he kindly declined. I could have avoided many fiascos! 😂 Let’s hope that the epoxy glue holds because as it turns out, the bracket on the right broke off again and it’s no longer available in stores. Will need to go brocanting for a vintage and hopefully find some more pottery along the way…
@@Frenchcountryfriends. More pottery shopping is always a bonus! I sent you an email reply with a few more pictures, but it may have gone to your spam or something-not sure if you got them or not. It was about a week ago. 😊. Take care!! I think the little autumn sickness is visiting me now. Blah! Oh well-pressing onward. 💪 💜
I totally get that! Hanging curtains can turn into a bit of a balancing act sometimes-things slipping, reaching for the right spot, and all the little mishaps that happen along the way.

Hi! We hope you are the mend soon! 💗 Lots of warm cozy drinks for your throat. Thank you for sharing your message with us.
It’s amazing how something lighthearted can help take your mind off feeling under the weather.
Loved when your curtains fell down, such a real life moment I laughed out loud

That was hilarious 😂 the drapes are beautiful 😊
That’s my life D! A constant struggle with my common senses…🤣 Bon Weekend soon! What are your plans??
By the way, I LOVE your beautiful dog! xxx
Thank you! 💗
Yep, that's how I hang my curtains in the beginning 😂. Love your new curtains! It's giving me inspiration. I typically stay away from prints.
Much more efficient! Had I counted the pleats beforehand, that rod would have been off…🤣 Prints on textiles are also difficult for me but these are minimal enough that I don’t feel overpowered.
Your blouse is beautiful. Oh, also the curtains!
Thank you to both!
Your new curtains that smell so good😅 are beautiful.
😂 We need more fresh new smells around here. Happy Friday!
The curtains look lovely, but I'm glad you finally used your ladder!
Yes, it takes me a while to get to my senses. 😂
You remind me of me.
Getting my steps in is how I rationalize it. Always a comedy. 😂❤
It really is…just going for it and then learning as we go. Many hugs to you for joining us on this video today. 💌
Hello from Coronado CA. Lovely drapes for your stunning cottage! Thank you for sharing! Loved it!

Glad i am not the only one who struggles with curtains 😂 deff love the new curtains i love linen fabric and love the colour and design and will be very toasty with thermal linings thanks for sharing ❤
Curtains really can be tricky, can't they?
Especially when one doesn’t think out the process…🤣 This was natural fun but now I know what do for next time.
We like reading that you like the look of them too! We’ll need a night in the cottage during the winter to feel how much warmth it retains. We are very curious with its heating efficacy.
Curtains are beautiful
💗
I always enjoy your decorating! You make me smile, Jeni ❤

So beautiful! Please tell us where your beautiful blouse is from. It's stunning!
Thank you! It’s a brand called “Vera Moda.” They also offered it in black. ❤️
Hello! Get some drape sconces.. You're able to rest them on a hook. Etsy sells beautiful antique drape rest.
We appreciate the suggestion. 💕
Hi There from Los Angeles! Gorgeous draperies!
Hello! 👋❤️

It was definitely our favorite from that particular collection! Like olive leaves.
Omg hanging curtains is never just a ‘just job! ‘

Pinch-pleat draperies definitely have that elegant, timeless touch that makes a space feel polished!

Oh goodness... I am not very efficient.. standing on a chair, things falling.. yep.. that's me.🥴.. Pretty curtains.. the new smell...👃🏼
