CHAMPAGNE OR PROSECCO? with

- HAPPY NEW YEAR! We've been saving a few special surprises for you... Firstly, Simon and I are finally home long enough to decorate and prepare for the holidays. This month we've shown you holiday inspirations from New York to Lisbon to San Juan. However, as we are still within the 12 Days of Christmas, we are continuing the festivities by finally sharing our own cooking, shopping and decorating creativity at home. Will Simon and I actually fly inside of a magic Christmas tree? What is that crazy thing Simon is doing to the turkey? Do we really have 5 Christmas trees at home? Will I have time to make homemade natural ornaments? In celebration of the New Year, we also flash back to this summer when our friends from the Chateau de Lalande joined my sister Ashley and me in Cortona, Italy (Tuscany) for an unforgettable holiday, including an evening where we blind-taste-tested Champagne versus Prosecco. Could we tell the difference? Which did we prefer? There is no better time than now to take the Champagne Prosecco Challenge and dream of a little sunshine!! The holidays aren't over...Grab a glass of something bubbly and join us for some very sparkling @ChateauLove !!
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, pets, and -whenever possible- lovely friends and family.
This is not our first chateau! 20 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!

To hear the bequtiful Christmas hymns praising our Lord is worshipful and blesses our souls. Thank you.
Your home is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING...
My GOODNESS just GORGEOUS!!!
LOVE,LOVE, LOVE the Magnificent Bird plates! AND the mosaic in your kitchen!!!
What a Fabulous tour... Thank you so much for sharing!!!
I can't think of anything more wonderful than spending the Christmas season in Tuscany and the Loire Valley. Your chateau could not be more beautiful. The Christmas decorations made your chateau the most gorgeous chateau in the Loire Valley. You both have superb taste. Thank you for transporting me to paradise on Earth!
Thank you a million times for introducing us to your talented sister Ashley. So happy 😀 ❤️💕
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there 👏👏👋👋
Love the soft colors in your home. Your eyes flow effortlessly from room to room without having your eyes jarred by dramatic color changes .❤️ Everything ties together and you see the treasures in each room, instead of the paint!
Thank you, Susan! That was very intentional, and it’s lovely that you noticed. 🥰Smaller spaces (in my opinion) need some continuity. 🏰💖
Brilliant idea putting a tree on a table between two rooms and decorating each side differently. Your hand painted plates are superb. Lovely 🥰 video. Thanks for sharing.
The Christmas ride was wonderful, you two are so precious!!! Blessing to you all!!! Love the trees.
Beautiful ❣ Thank you for sharing ❤ Your sister's singing takes one's breath away, Absolutely Beautiful 😍
So beautiful in so many ways! Your dehydrated citrus and magnolia leaves turned out fabulous! Your painted bird plates are incredible, as well as the natural themed decorations! But your family's lovely singing made my heart swell at the remembrance of the reason for the season! That line, " God and sinners reconciled..." ! Without the coming of the Savior we would be so very lost! It's been a very very difficult year for so many of us, and without the comfort, strength and hope that we have in Jesus in a very personal way, I can't imagine how people do it! Well, thanks again! Till next time, Happy New Year!

Oh Vivienne, the bird dinner plates are fabulous!

Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there👏👏👏👋👋
What a great idea to ride in a bauble!
I almost forgot to mentioned, I bought a beautiful magnolia leaf wreath, that was apart painted, and it last me so many years. With so many military moves and purchased in Hawaii, back to mainland US, then Germany, back to US. It finally just didn’t look as pretty. I had forgotten about it as I simply loved it till you showed it here again. I hope to see if I can ask for magnolia leaves to make one for next Christmas. Just wanted to let you know Vivian so you may want to make a grand one or smaller one for the beautiful kitchen of yours.
Vivian your bird plates are absolutely beautiful. Your very talented.
Vivienne!!! You folks did an awesome job! One word of description ~~ EPIC ~~; Obviously your good taste and joy of each other shines radiantly through ! Am so thrilled to have found your blog...you two have that something "EXTRA" as one would say... good taste along with the upper crust up bringing makes you still relateable... Happy New Year from Vancouver Canada!!!
