How can we get this UGLY room into SHAPE? Getting STRONG for DIY & a "DISGUSTING" purchase!

We really need to get fit, and the days are growing shorter, colder and wetter! Soon we might not be able to walk in our beloved vineyards. Time to take action! A dull basement room gets a complete chateau transformation. Will we have success antique shopping? Did one of us actually buy something "disgusting"? This week there is an incredibly delicious and very unusual "Cheese of the Week". Did you know there is another artist in the house? His talents deserve to be on display! #château #roomtransformation #beforeandafter #france #frenchcheese ABOUT US: Hello! I’m Vivienne, the châtelaine of a small 19th century neo-Renaissance castle in the Loire Valley of France, which I share with my delightful (and wonderfully funny!) husband, Simon, our daughter, and —whenever possible— lovely friends and family. This is not our first chateau! 22 years ago, we bought a much larger castle nearby, which we loved with all our hearts. However, nearly 18 years, many happy memories, countless renovations, and several small fortunes later, we made the very difficult, empty-nesting decision to downsize. With great luck and perseverance, we found our current petit château, which we are now decorating and updating with love, humour, comfort, and —of course— antiques and art! We adore France and its many unique facets: its people, culture, landscapes, wine, food, art, and history. We also love being surrounded by châteaux, both public and private, which we can explore together! After 20 years here, we have learned many things about living in France, renovating châteaux, and appreciating the extraordinary riches surrounding us. We originally decided to make these videos as a way to share our lives with our loved ones worldwide during the pandemic lockdowns. However, we soon realised that many others are at home alone, and it is our privilege to open our home to you, our new friends. We hope you will join us on our adventures in this exceptional location, and we look forward to sharing a little Château Love!
