    I'm in awe you're allowed to take pets inside those stores. She was so well behaved also. Try a harness on her instead of the collar. Less stress on her neck. I love that teapot. The stores had some pretty items for sale. You have to be enjoying your new kitchen. Lots of storage space. Have a great weekend.

      One day I had my little dog with me but not his harness. I did have a collar in the car. He was okay with me putting the collar on him and clipping his leash on but when I sat him down to walk and he felt the slight pull on his neck, lol, he went berserk. That little boy was biting at the leash, twisting his body around in ways I didn't know he could, and I hadn't even taken a step yet. I was completely shocked just how much he hated it. I never made that mistake again. I keep a harness in my car now. Lol. He taught me a valuable lesson.

Your gift of design and appreciation for keeping the things of Historical value, giving them a new life in the 21st century. I am Canadian with parents of first generation from Scotland who came to Canada in 1918. Did I just give away my age? You bring back so many lovely ideas to incorporate the old with the new.

It is possible to drink good wine, live in a lovely home, and enjoy the finer things of life simply by making good choices. Great wealth is not required for elegant living, and many rich people do not appreciate what is being handed to them daily by their servants. Most anyone with taste can live well, and your channel is a valuable resource for this enterprise. Thank you.

    This was so beautiful and relaxing as always. I’m shocked you are allowed to take your cutie patootie everywhere with you that’s amazing. And no one is wearing masks. The shops remind me of Turin Italy and when you get to those charming cobble stone streets, they are the kinds of places that would make me want to paint again. Iv been on a hiatus. I could watch hours of these tours. Its what most of us I could say are not surrounded by, and seeing such beautiful places is inspiring. When I saw those dark curtains in the wallpaper room at was it Jeffries? I thought they would be perfect for me! its 6 years I was looking for curtains and nothing caught my eye til now. That orange couch was amazing. If they had it in a royal purple with teal peacock cushions.... oh boy. That was a lovely cake loaf and I can only dream of the almond tea in it. I am obsessed with almond scent. Sicilian almonds are by the the best I have ever tried in my life along with pistachios. They make everything with them. The best house cleaner I have ever used is almond scented as well and Italian. If they made a perfume from it I would be all over it. There is nothing in North America like it.
    I want to try this recipe!

    Love that burnt orange sofa. Mid-century is more my thing (it's better suited to the kind of homes we build out here in the antipodes) and that would look right at home in my living room.

    Re the dried flowers/plants: when you do a tutorial can you please do something without pampas grass? It's extremely overplayed/way too trendy and is honestly very ugly. I think dried flowers/plants are difficult to do without looking like dust magnets so I am really intrigued to see how you do something with them.
    Low key jealous that Sophie can accompany you into all those stores - I can't even get away with that in Los Angeles!

    Hello, Nicolas! So enjoyed this video! Thank you for inviting us to shop with you, and for the great decorating tips. I just moved into a new home, and I’m excited to use some of the tips at my new place. Definitely will be trying the tea cake recipe this weekend - it looks so good. Thank you, again, for all you do. I love it when I get the notification to see your new content - it’s the best part of my Fridays! Have a wonderful weekend. Take care

    I may not be there, but you've inspired me to enjoy my daily walks through my quaint rural town.
