    Making all the videos and editing them when you have time, after the projects, is brilliant. I’ve missed your elegant soft persona. I believe this channel is becoming my favorite. The things you look at on your shopping trips and the quint villages you chose, are the best.

    Oui Bonjour and Hello,
    I look forward to your vlogs and was happy to see you are still vlogging after an absence. You are having fun discovering all the articles of delight that your eyes find !
    I want to comment on the lovely furniture you find and hope you can leave more of it in its found original form with its patina of age. After it has been altered by painting it will never be able to reveal it's story that it had before. I have trust in your appreciatiation of these pieces and hope this sensitivity halts the urge you have to cover them in paint in your future endeavors. Restoration is a valid persuit that I admire. It can be a thoughtful delicate balance which preserves a beautiful piece without covering it up. What do you think ?
    I loved your segment on the papier dresses and other creations. These are taking a reference from the traditional designs and making a new product that you both can bring to our attention in your vlog. Thank you et merci beaucoup.
    I would love to meet you both someday.
    Penni

      Bonjour Penni. Yes we like to keep some furniture as we found it, but sadly a lot has been damaged and cannot be repaired well enough so we give them a new life by painting them and fixing the rotten pieces that have been neglected for so long. We have a selection of wooden and painted. Thanks for watching and also your comments x

    That was a lovely video. Loved all of your purchases at the antique sale. The wallpaper that you put up was beautiful. It has been such a long time sine your last video, so really enjoyed seeing you back. Love the music in the background and beautiful scenery. Thank you again. So cold in Canada and today some very light snow, so this was beautiful to watc.

      Hello Darlene, yes we are having a few hiccups and haven't posted for a while. We had an unexpected death in the family and it took us a while to get back on track. I bet Canada looks beautiful in the snow, take care x

    I really enjoy shopping trips with you!! The markets had delightful things. I love the miniature rooms!! The wallpaper screen is beautiful. I've never seen a plague of wasps in a house before.How did you get rid of them?? The wallpaper in the Sun Room is beautiful. The paper dresses are incredible. Wonderful video! Love from Vermont

    • @romantiquefrenchlife6450
      @romantiquefrenchlife6450  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sorry it's taken so long to reply. We had to use a special spray ( highly toxic I'm thinking) and we had to use it quite a few times as they kept coming back! I think winter may have killed them but we will see when we get back there. Thanks so much for watching x

    G'day! Would you be kind enough to tell me what you paid for the antique French cafe chair? I was gifted two the same, found near Rouen, and am wondering what they might be worth. Also... I've looked for but cannot find Miss Clara's Facebook page, so any ideas? A link in the description perhaps? I appreciate you both showing her wonderful work. I'm sorry you didn't get your lovely screen. It would have been exceptionally hard to walk away from it. It was stunning, but there's an even more beautiful one out there waiting for you! All the best.

    Good to see you again, I loved those two screens, they are always just a bit past my budget too. 😔. So I am making my own instead.

    How wonderful to see the Miss Clara creations I already know her Instagram.The wallpaper is so pretty and those wee dioramas of the butcher, school and cinema are exquisite. Love watching the brocante please linger longer on things if you can! Thanks so much, really enjoying your vlogs.

      @romantiquefrenchlife6450  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is very difficult with so many beautiful things. We have a formula for the shop so we know how much we can spend on each item to be able to on-sell it. We buy what we ´can’t live without’ for the house lol. within reason Xx

      @romantiquefrenchlife6450  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Actually if you look at it in reality it’s an 80’s fake shiny brick. I would def keep it if it was the old lovely antique tiles. Loads of other things to do first though xx 😘

    R u going to take the tiles up, or lay a wooden floor over them. Because any removal of the tiles would probably ruin that wallpaper.
