I used to show the gifts as part of ' @The Chateau Diaries ' episodes, but you're all so very generous that we have many gifts, and if we spent the episodes opening them, we wouldn't be able to show you other aspects of chateau life! So, for those of you who enjoy watching presents being opened, and as a way to thank those of you who were kind enough to send them, I've made this new channel. Every week we will film your beautiful gifts whilst enjoying afternoon tea or aperitif together.
It is very important to me that you know that we in no way expect anyone to send us gifts. I would like to go further than that and add that, if doing so will put you in any financial difficulty whatsoever, please, please do not send us anything. Knowing that you join us by watching 'The Chateau Diaries' gives us all an enormous boost. But for those of you who have sent these incredibly thoughtful gifts, I hope that seeing us open them gives you a fraction of the joy that you've given us 💖💖💖
If you would like to see more of our life at the chateau, please go to our main 'Chateau Diaries' channel:

Gregor the gargoyle
I think many viewers would love to see Michael at Lalande. Judging by his many gifts and poems, he seems to be a kind and very interesting gentleman. He would fit right in at Lalande.
I'm going to miss this vlog very much. It makes me so happy to watch it. There are so many kind and generous people. The Chateau Diaries are just wonderful to watch.
I love Mummy and Percy!
Lovely gifts! And the cushion covers! The donor who created them could sell them and get very good prices indeed! The cartoon of Mummy racing off on the mower is one of my favourite gifts ever! Thank you for the video! Love to everyone and very special wishes to the amazing volunteers!
After Cadeaux is off the air I will really miss Michael's poems!
Maybe she’ll start a new channel just for his poems ✌🏼
Coming from a sad family I absolutely adore your family ❤
Yes, I like the name, Gregor, for the gargoyle. I loved this caddeau. The gifts are amazing. Micheal's poems are always so enjoyable.❤❤❤
Michael is so creative and generous, he is a gem! And that necklace! Stunning! (I cannot write stunning or beautiful without hearing Stephanie's or Philip's enunciation for these exclamations.).
Prayers for Percy's recovered health!
Is he ok? I did not know he was sick
Beautiful Gifts Again. The Cushion Covers are Wonderful Xx 😊😘
In this often not so kind world, it it a pleasure to visit this page where people are showing their true kindness and love. I also appreciate how the authentic ability to be gracious is exemplified. Many people can take some cues from what happens here and learn some life lessons on how to spread joy, love, kindness and grace. The charity donations are spreading all of the positives to ensure others in need are not forgotten. This is how it's done for anyone needing some life lessons.
The earrings and necklace are absolutely beautiful! Michael has such exquisite taste. Beautiful gifts from everyone.
Use the broken china in a mosaic, maybe table top in the garden, or stepping stones … or even jewelry! Or fix it with the Japanese method Kintsugi … 😁
I was thinking exactly the same. Maybe a small bistro table in the courtyard with the top covered in broken blue and white China mosaic would be appropriate particularly if paired with two blue and white cushions for the seats.
Your mother’s tunic/dress(?) is a wow! It is beautiful on her. Best from Boston.
Just watching you all together just makes my heart happy. I thank you for that.
Oh those cushions. Again thank you for the love and laughter
Gorgeous cushion covers, wow, those birds 😊
Broken china is great as jewelry. I have some such jewelry or put in cement as stepping stones or a seat top.
Wonderful gifts! Those earings and the necklace. I think it goes very well with the green dress!
Another fun cadeaux. Stephanie, I would love a curtain sewing tutorial from you, pretty please.😅
Oh my those bags are beautiful such a wonderful ideal ❤
Gamury the gargoyle, seeing as he has the same guns as Amury 😅😊
Marvelous custom poem,Michael!
Gus the gargoyle, you have received some beautiful gift's once again.💕🌼🤗
Maybe someone might be able to make a small mosaic from the broken china... ❤
the gargoyle looks like a Kazimierz (short Kazik) or Stanislaw ( short Stashek) both names of Polish kings :D Or maybe Henry (Heniek)
The kitchen cushion covers are WOW SO well made and perfection!
I too would love a sewing class - especially your beautiful tapestry coat you wore in Venice.I have found a pattern but unfortunately having trouble finding the material. I will have to have a search on my visit to London. Loving all your positivity .It sets me up for the day watching while I am on my treadmill !!!
My favourite is also seeing 2 or 10 around the table in the kitchen!
Hello from Mid-Missouri, US...I lived in LA for 11 years and stayed at the Madonna Inn on several occasions. It was a hoot! I loved it. Thanks for showing the photos.
I remember there used to be acolour of wall-paint called "Madonna Pink" ,as used in the inn. That would be in the 70s..... t was an extreme pink!
Michael, you are awesome!!!! 🩵🩵🩵
🥀🍃 Whatever happened to the plan to put your father’s tiles up in the kitchen?💚
Same thing that happened to all the renovation work. Travel and shopping were priorities. ✌🏼
I believe she mentioned it in an earlier patreon video. It's just delayed as the chapel and the grand salon structure has much higher priority than a decorative tile wall. The design was completed by Steve from Manor and Maker and she just has to prioritise.
Gargoyle..Eeek!
Legal esse gargula 👍👍
❤ the gargoyle and all the very special and creative gifts ❤
I think that type of glass from Nancy is called "carnival glass".
Yes I thought so also. 🐝🇨🇦
Beautiful gifts again.
Great recycling of feed bags, I have a hog feed bag I use for groceries. No more plastic bags used for groceries.
Lovely chair covers
I love your glasses Isabelle!
Maybe you could do a kitchen camo mosaic with the broken dishes for a garden table top?
I think you should hide statues and the gargoyle along the paths in the forest and make it like a scavenger hunt.
Wow some people are so kind 💗💗💗💗
Did Stephanie actually say the chicken feed bag purse was “eggcellent”? 😂
**I think the gargoyle should be named Max Love because your channel, your family and friends share the Maximum Love with everyone. Thank you SO MUCH❤
Your new gargoyle....perhaps Griswold or Gray? Both are of the Old English meaning: to shine (from within). He is not a Michael, Percy, Amaury, Tonton or Gerry....he looks fierce but that's his "façade". On the inside, his heart is golden, his mind is sharp, his spirit that of a warrior and his character is truth in all things.
Good evening from the SF Bay Area. I was so occupied in the new garden/patio in my little condo/chateau that I didn't see your cadeau hours ago. Nice to see you all and loads of love to you. And yes, topaz is beautiful!
Love to you all at La Lande, Dear Stephanie, you started a “- spread love and kindness” revolution.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wow, everything is beautiful, from the toile de joui seat cushions to the jewelry and more! Thanks for showing content of the good and beautiful things humans can do. Also, a very happy Pride month to all who celebrate! My no. 3 kid came out as nonbinary (at age 11) and I recently gave them my sewing machine to add to their artistic explorations. The inclusiveness of your blogs means a lot.
Percy seems to be not his usual self, his voice is very hoarse. I hope you get better soon .
I agree He will be lovely in the vegetable garden
Grimoire
I just enjoy the videos, I am so happy you can keep up with Mother and Mr. Percy.
I hope one day they will stay put.
My suggestion for a name for the little garden protector (gargoyle?)..."OLIVER"- Popular baby name of Latin origin meaning “nature loving” or “love of nature”; relates to the olive tree.
Gargoyles are protectors of the home! But so misunderstood nowadays due to being featured in horror movies. They are scary looking in order to scare away even the devil himself! 😆
Personally I would park him by the chicken🐔 coops.
Wonderful gifts! ❤
Gary the gargoyle ❤
Voting for a 🚪! 😊
you could do a mosiac out of the damaged pieces or do kintsugi
That was fun,loved the gargoyle lol
The ladies look beautifull in there lovely dresses. Beautifull gifts as well!
❤ from 🇨🇦
Perhaps Ed nal al...the gargoyle.
That's Lalande spelt backwards...It brings to mind something medieval, mysterious, magical & a protector, with the bonus of having a connection to Lalande.
...Perhaps Glam the Gargoyle...short for glamorous.
Great vlog.
🙏💖
Devil May Care 😂
Lord of the Flies
Michael is so generous! All the gifts are lovely from your viewers.
Argo ! ❤
Angel of Light
If he weren't so heavy, I would call him Waldo & invite people to hide him throughout the forest (in plain sight) or grounds (chicken pen) I know Waldo has a different name in UK🇬🇧 but I don't know if he has an equivalent in France🇫🇷
Perceval the gargoyle.
I think the gargoyle could be in the forest, guarding the bridge.
I too am from the Tampa Bay area. Love from Florida
hello to all
Olesia is a name that means protector in Polish .Branislav or Branko is a strong Slavic name meaning protector or defense is a classic Slavic male name
I would call that gargoyle 'Rudigert' the loving protector of the Lalande gardens!
The patron Saint for architects is Thomas xx
Bonjour to you all. Really nice vlog, always fun and interesting as well. I dont understand exactly what is the reason to stop opening the gifts that you will get after the first of June publicly - it is so fun not only for us but I guess it is fun for those who send them to see your reaction. Sad.
Aaah I want him LOve them
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hello friends
I think Percy should be stood down from this task. He really needs rest.
It’s also painfully obvious he does not enjoy this either.
Percy is a grown man who's not afraid to speak for himself. You mustn't assume.
I think Gary the gargoyle would be a good name for him
Gargoyle name. Argus (Greek) “vigilant guardian”
Can you glue the broken yellow glass to make a vase for the table?
Little question - are there any parts of the chateau just closed off and unrenovated yet? It would be nice to hear about your plans and timeline for next projects inside and outside.
Yes in what would have been the servants quarters upstairs. She has only showed a room maybe two right off the stairs going to them because the floors are not completely safe. It would have been in like her 3-6 months video if you look back. Now I also watch like 25 chateau channels but I just remember her referencing the wallpaper that was found to be original throughout the chateau.
I'm going to throw the name Gabriel the Gargoyle into the ring because I agree with Isabelle. I think the guy is really hiding the soul of an angel behind that fierce visage.
Georgie the gargoyle
❤❤❤👍👍👍
You could make a teapot stand or drink coasters with the broken china. ?? Mosaic
would Michael keep sending stuff when cadeaux is off-air?
Would the crystal tray work to hold your perfume bottles?
Gargamel. ☘️☘️☘️
Gregory the Gargoyle
Gregory the gargoyle
I wish you hadn’t said he had arms like Amaury, because my first thought was with that pose the gargoyle looks like he’s pole dancing 😂😂😂 My husband says his name should be Gary but I’m leaning towards Mike - as in Magic. 😂😂😂 ❤️🇨🇦
You never answer simple questions😢
Vegas is not in California
Question: Hi all, just like TV episodes are kept and re-runs, are youtube accumulated vlogs over time worth a monetary value eg you get residuals for all the previous views of older vlogs? Or, does youtube own the older vlogs? Can older content be sold as an asset like TV shows? Just wondering. Cheers John ( the new wardrobe of dresses ).
Name him Angelo after sweet Angie who sent him....
