I love it! I always love to use a patterned wallpaper but after 4 weeks I have to take it off again 🙃

The downstairs loo has been like the proverbial stone at the bottom of your shoe! So glad for you that it’s done…and it looks great. Action man Amaury. Wish both Nati & Amaury a great holiday!

This may be a really stupid question, but are you repainting and guilding the panelling? Love it as it is with it showing the years but obviously it’s very worn. Just wondering what look you will go for

The toilet is impressive and I’m in love with the wallpaper! Where is it from? 🙏🥰

No, they’re very different people, with different approaches and techniques. Both are lovely, but Amaury was able to finish where Selmar couldn’t, because he was able to do the coving himself. And sadly Selmar can’t get back to celebrate the reveal with us because of restrictions - he and Tatyana were supposed to join us for New Year’s Eve

What a joy for you all to be part of such a talented, hard-working, kind and fun-loving bunch!

Selmar made the flooring a few months ago, and it was an extraordinary labor of love. He chiseled down existing stone slabs and it looks as though they’ve been there forever!

Oh Amaury is so clever! Really tremendous work... he absolutely deserves a holiday 👏.. as do you all! Love from Italy 🥰

Love the paneling but I still think It would look better with the small pieces added and the bigger pieces cut… but I am sure Amaury has his opinion and he knows what would look best … cannot wait to see the finished room , thx for the update❤️

Yay for the loo! Q for the LaLande crew - where did you get the amazing wallpapers for the loo and the entrance hall? Ive looked at Degournay but I don’t see the right ones there. They are simply lovely!

Lovely vlog! The Firestarter alarm was hilarious! Poor you though...3.30am? hah ha, what a pair. The panelling will be lovely.

Are you going to sand, paint and gild the paneling? Before or after it goes up?

Great video! The downstairs loo now works! How exciting for you all. And it’s beautiful as well! What more could LaLanders need? And the panelling will look spectacular. And how wonderful that it fits so well. Meant to be. It was fascinating to watch Amaury and Philip work it out. Philip has such a special spatial talent as well as an almost photographic memory of the individual panels. Quite remarkable! And he worked well with Amaury who was visibly excited at the thought of the work ahead. What a team you now have at LaLande! Can’t wait to see the work progress in 2022 with your team of Amaury, Philip, Dan, Davy, Kirstie, the chapel restorer and co! You must be thrilled Stephanie! (And I did note Amaury and Natalia’s trip to Argentina. I’m excited for them both. What a perfect match!)

Is it not possible to put the panels undernieth the beam and be able to use a slightly smaler skirting?

Julia Cobb

The paneling is beyond gorgeous! The downstairs loo unbelievable. I thought you’d sneak in a picture of the beginning of the project just to see the transformation of it. It is a jewel box! Job accomplished! So happy that Amaury is meeting Nati’s family. That’s so exciting. Hopefully Nati or Amaury will film while they are there. This was such an incredible video. I love to see the fruition of years of planning. I was thinking how even 5 years ago you had no idea how any of this would ever be done. Now, with all our small donations together we have helped you realize your dream. It makes me teary and so happy! Thank you for sharing your life with us.

So excited to finally see the completed downstairs loo! It is indeed a jewel box of a room. Also, the working out of the paneling was very interesting. Many thanks to Stephanie, Selmar, the talented Amoury and all those who had a hand in moving the renovations forward.

Love the paneling! However, while I do agree that the wide panel looks a lot better without the bottom panel, I think it is nice to have it with the more slender panels; otherwise I fear there will be too little a link with the doors and the other panels that just have ‘squares’ (I mean no baroque things)? If you would have the bottom panels under the slender panels, I think it would make the room more coherent, and the wide panels could stand out more (like the fire place and the mirror without bottom panel) to put art or nice cabinets in front! I hope it is clear what I want to say, English is not my native language. Either way, it will be beautiful and I trust in your vision :-)

The downstairs loo is a beautiful jewel box from top to bottom. Will you be sanding and painting the paneling in the grand salon? I can hardly wait to see work progressing in there. Also, can you tell me where you got your beautiful red Latvian cape from?

The Patreon notification in my phone showed me "It's finally happened!" nothing more and I immediately thought "downstairs loo!". Don't know why it was the first thing I thought of. It's not something I think about often :)

I’m with you Maria! I was in the middle of a video call and wanted SO badly to hang up to watch the unveiling of a bathroom, of all things! 🤣 I remember last year when Stephanie unveiled the wallpaper as a patron video and thinking “I wonder how long this will take to finish?” Watching these videos have made me practice patience in my own life much more intentionally.

The downstairs loo has arrived!! Bravo Amaury it looks wonderful ❤️ was that my favourite men’s cologne- Christian Dior’s eau sauvage 🥰 to see you all nutting out the paneling and seeing it in situ- go team 💕💕💕 l could see that Philip had a excellent sense of position and measurements too.

My all time favorite video! The glorious loo AND the astoundingly gorgeous paneling. I do hope you're not going to touch the finish. No sanding or painting over that historic patina please.

Anonymous

Just a quick thought. Do you HAVE to cut down the doors? I believe they can stay as they are, they can be wider than the opening as they’re opening inwards. It shouldn’t be a problem visually that when you open them the walk through is actually narrower than the doors.

Great vlog Stephanie the downstairs loo is fabulous I bet there will be a line waiting to use it as everyone will take there time in there the panelling is going to look fabulous and it was lovely to see Phillip so excited about it to and the BBQ looks scrumptious Yorkshire pudding and sausages heaven I look forward to further progress in the new year excellent

Christine VR

I don’t know how you do it, but every video I end up smiling so much and feeling incredibly happy - it’s magic! Never thought I would be cheering for a loo but by golly that is indeed a glamorous throne room! LOVED the group effort sorting out the panelling placement. It is going to be sumptuous!! Can’t wait! What a crew, everyone pitching in, ear flaps down and fortified with a cauldron of mulled wine and Yorkshire pudding/sausage burgers! Missing your aunt and uncle already!! Thank you Stephanie for a yet another lovely glimpse of life at LaLande.❤️

I know there is a bromance joke between Amaury and Dan but I have to say they are more like brothers teaming up on their sister Stephanie. The look on their faces when she brought up the alarm prank was priceless!

Well, I saw your response above Stephanie. It will be sanded, painted, and gilded. It may just be that my phone doesn't show the condition. I sincerely believe that you have a level of taste and knowledge that is beyond reproach. It's going to be spectacular.

Oh wow! So much in one x video! I absolutely love the downstairs loo and can’t wait to see it in person! My mind was reeling after watching the jigsaw puzzle of the grand salon paneling.

Michael needs to learn how to control the vents under the coals. When blazing like that, close vents by75% and the Gil flames will die down

So glad that the panels are not being chopped up. If they had been made recently, it would not matter, but now they are historic artefacts with an artistic value beyond their functional purpose. And it will be nice to have leftovers for another room! Thank you for the video.

It was magic watching all that was going on tonight. I felt as if I was in the rooms with you and kept making comments and answering your questions all on my own, that was how much Iwas immersed in the filming. How exciting the forthcoming trip to Argentina, hope Covid doesn’t get in the way as it is spreading. And you have been lucky with all your visitors. Thank you Stephanie and Gang.

One of the things I love best about LaLande is the all hands on deck of every project, every shared meal, every day! This video perfectly encapsulates how everyone is celebrating the season together…but they’re also still working together, planning together, and of course (my favorite) problem solving together!

This was Brillant. The loo is gorgeous and watching all of you working together to lay out the paneling in the Salon was wonderful, All of you work so well together and so happy that Michael Potts was there to be a part of the planning.

Christine VR

Wouldn't the panels that don't fit in the Grand Salon be absolutely gorgeous in Stephanie's bedroom/boudoir? Just a thought.

Janese Carstens

Stephanie…I am happy to be your co-conspirator to get even with Amaury and Dan. My brothers did the same thing to me when I was much younger. They set an alarm and put it in a tissue box near my head. I slept so hard that I was so out of it when it went off at 2:45am. I kept saying “I can’t hear it!” when I sat up and then “it’s louder” when I laid down. 😂 It took me longer that it should have to find the stupid thing. All that to say is I had great ways to get even with them that I would love to pass on to you!! 😈❤️ Message me for some harmless yet hilarious retaliation options! Happy New Year! 💥🎆

Stephanie, have you given it a thought if you don’t cut the doors down to fit the door way. Build up a frame for the doors to fit the frame even though the passage way will be more narrow.

Anonymous

The downstairs loo is a triumph! Well done!! I absolutely agree with the decision not to cut the paneling in the grand salon. It's going to look spectacular when it's finished. I hope Nati and Amaury have a wonderful time in Argentina. Not sure if they would be interested in showing us some of the sites while they're there, maybe for just the patrons? The El Ateneo Grand Splendid in Buenos Aires is truly spectacular. Obviously, their time with family should remain private. Stephanie, I'm really glad you are taking some time off in January. You guys seriously worked your butts off for us in 2021. Now that you are starting a new channel with Oliver soon, I hope that means just 3 videos a week from you (one Cadeaux, one Chateau Diaries, and one Patron video), and then one a week with you and Oliver. That's a lot of awesome content for us to look forward to. Maybe you could encourage your subs to check out the other chateau vlogs during your break in January, so people can spread the love a little while you get some rest? P.S. I hope you and Nati liked your fairy ears. Sending you love and hugs. <3 <3 <3

The downstairs loo is Gorgeous! Wow! And the panelling is going to be stunning in the Grande Salon. I can't wait to see that. Stephanie, I so appreciate that you have such a commitment to the preservation of the panelling. No vandalism. I think of the saying "if only those walls could talk". I think there's something to that. They have hundreds of years of life in them, and they deserve to be respected in tact in all their glory.

Stephanie, what did Isabelle say about the loo? Remember her standing on your bed unwrapping the rolls of wallpaper for you. Your joy is irresistible. And as always, thank you Amaury.

Amaury is simply extraordinary, although he and Dan together is like watching two juvenile delinquents that have been let out of school. Stephanie, if you ever feel in need of a side hustle with which to earn a little money for the brocantes or whatever, just have someone create an app for the Apple Store that plays Amaury’s voice talking about carpentry and measurements on a loop to zen us all out into a blissfully calm and meditative state. Whether or not you then have him whisper hypnotic suggestions in our ear about Patreon contributions is up to you.

The downstairs loo is stunning and I still can’t get over how beautiful the wallpaper is 👏👏👏. I have loved every minute of watching all the changes that have happened to LaLande. Amaury is a carpenter extraordinaire. I though Selmar was an artist but Amaury has surpassed him in my book. Wow, just wow 👏👏👏. I can’t wait to see how the Grande Salon will turn out.

Oh what a beautiful toilet it has become, will B&B guests use it? Is it secret or can you tell what you paid for the panel to the big salon. It will be exciting to follow the process when the puzzle is put together. Looking forward to a fantastic 2022. Greetings Marianne Sweden

Loved the updates and the parts about the grand salon. Going to miss your aunt and uncle in your videos. Once again my husband who "doesn't watch" liked how Amaury is so hard working and has that tape measurer handy every time. I like him he says haha👍

Anonymous

For posterity, it might be a nice idea to have a photo of all the La Landers who contributed to the Downstairs Loo and perhaps attach it to the back of one of those lovely mirrors, something like you are thinking of for the names of patrons on the panelling in the Grand Salon. I know Selmar put his heart and soul into the stones for the floor. Stephanie, you and Scotman did an amazing job of the wallpapering, Amaury worked his magic on the coving and piping and I'm sure there were more people involved as well. 🇨🇦

Anonymous

The downstairs loo looks fantastic, and the grand salon is going to be spectacular! It's funny how the grand salon looks taller in its unfinished state. Perhaps you could use one the overdoor panels on the hood in the kitchen. One might look nice made into a trumeau above the mirror of the fireplace in Chambre Perse. Even a grand bed crown for Bonne Maman. I wish I could have a Yorkshire pudding. My mom always made them small they barely peeped out of the tin and always called them batter puddings, but they were delicious. Happy New Years!

You could not have planned the placement of the wallpaper in the downstairs loo any better, seeing how the trees and the sconces frame the sink. It was serendipity, considering that you started the panels at the door. Amaury did a spectacular job finishing the job. Fabulous!

Wait--is Amaury left-handed? Explains everything. (And the movie is 'Say Anything' with the indomitable John Cusack. One of the absolute best scenes with a ghetto-blaster ever). <3

What an incredible time at the chateau and I'm so thrilled to be a witness to the love and progress. It's both encouraging and inspiring. Safe and happy travels for Nati and Amaury to Argentina. Also wishing a safe and happy journey home for Michael and Ruth, and of course, for your Tante et Tonton too. I hope they return soon and often! They are so lovely. Happy New Year to you all!

I'm with Uncle Steven - don't mess up good wine. Love your aunt and uncle - Thank you Stephanie for making my Christmas even better. December has been filled with the joy of your lovely videos - THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL THE SMILES YOU BROUGHT FORTH FROM ME :)

I’m watching the video on YouTube and the part where you are sorting the China. For some reason (since my new phone) I can’t comment on YouTube. My daughter is my tech, so I’ll ask her to fix that for me. Anyway I hope someone will see this in regard to the “salad plates”. Those are actually bone plates. When meat is served with a bone ie chicken, steak, the half moon plates are for the discarding of bones, so they aren’t on the dinner plate or put someplace that will get a grease stain ie tablecloth. I have a couple of sets and they are very practical, especially when serving chicken.

❤️😃👌🏼 love the old panelling 😍 and of course the downstairs 🚽😃👌🏼 and I would have loved to join your Boxing Day barbecue 😘

Well, I jumped and spoke too soon. I scrolled down the comments on the YouTube video and saw others had mentioned the bone plates also. I didn’t want you to not realize their original purpose, because they are so practical when used for bones. I think they would be perfect for other things, too. Salad, relish, dipping sauce, the sky’s the limit.

I think Amaury was referring to the '80s movie, Say Anything with John Cusack holding the radio over his head playing Peter Gabriel's In Your Eyes.

What a beautiful loo! There will be a queue to use it. The panelling is going to look STUNNING! Are you going to restore the gold features or leave it as it is?

Worth the wait to get such a spectacular downstairs loo! It looks so inviting! You are so very lucky to have Amaury working with you, he's such a perfectionist, you know anything he touches will be a work of art ( not just a pretty face :p ) With all the work Selmar put in in the beginning getting the floor perfect and you and Gerry with the papering , you make a great team!

If you cut the doors down, wont the room not be symmetrical?

Wafty Wafty, and a cauldron of wine. I love Lalande.

I’m out of here. The ridiculous management of each project is wasting my valuable contribution. The downstairs loo was not funny. To take a year and only able to complete part of it due to Amoury. You should have made blinds, ordered the radiator cover and light bulbs. Now flitting off to SA with the heating not a priority. If you wanted to save this chateau a different approach is needed. I do not know why other patrons are not wondering where their thousands are going whilst you buy expensive wine and designer clothes. Very disappointed.

The "extra" paneling belongs in the bedroom where Michael Petherick painted trompe l'oeil paneling!

The cast iron garden chairs that you showed in yesterday's vlog would look good painted green. Similar to the color of the pergola on the terrace or maybe darker like a dark teal. Happy New Years!

Can't believe I'm excited about someone else loo! But why wouldn't I be? It is amazing! And the paneling? Can't wait.

That is such a beautiful bathroom, it’s just spectacular and the right person finished it to put his own stamp on it. Love it.

Ok, did everyone see how proud Amaury’s Mother was? She was beaming at her son and his amazing talent. She is simple adorable. I’ll miss her so much.

The loo is like walking into another world! A perfect reprieve. It’s gorgeous Stephanie.

Since Amaury has magically transformed the downstairs bathroom into a little slice of paradise, I can see that one and all now will have every reason to skip to the loo. But please, one at a time!
