    I loved seeing Benoit back in the chateau. He and Phillip were sparring again which is so cute. The smoking pipe that Benoit fashioned from wood was not only beautiful but so thoughtful. Benoit is a treasure.

    Little tip for picture hanging: cut pieces of paper the same size as pieces to be hung, mark where the nail should be on the papers, tape papers to wall to figure out where you'd like to put the pictures, once placement is decided its easy to see where to put the nail.

    The excitement around the new 3D printer is understandable, but please have Benoit make your drawer dividers. It'll be a perfect fit (no gaps!! So satisfying) and you can pick a gorgeous wood like walnut or oak or even paint it the same colour as the drawer if that's what you prefer.

    I have always been very traditional in my taste in interiors, particularly in historic homes and buildings, but l like the way you put a contemporary spin on the decor of the chateau. It looks fresh and updated while still maintaining the spirit of a traditional chateau. The mirrors in the bathroom look amazing. Also like that you painted the radiators to blend in with the walls and paneling. Great to see you back home looking refreshed and ready to complete your renovation projects.

    @gnarbeljo8980 2 месяца назад +7

    Wow guys, that sailing adventure has you smiling and bubbling like never before! There's a Swedish idiom "Omväxling förnöjer" meaning "variety (or a change of pace or scenery) pleases", and I think it's true for everyone, and especially people working at home. It's great to see you back at it! Anna, you have such a keen eye! The things you brought home from Sweden are really quintessentially Swedish items steeped in traditional crafts. I have a Gustavian wooden sofa in my kitchen and a fabric very similar to your heavier striped woven one sewn as a sofa cover I use for autumn and Christmas to add a pop of color and protect the cushion as my doggie friends love to lie there (I add a couple of sheepskins too once winter snows set in). I've table cloths in similar patterns to the other fabric. Love the earthenware with that creamy yellow and got my son and his wife 5 candle sticks all in different heights (and a spare that matches one of them in case they need a matching pair for dining) in exactly that style as the candelabra Filip found! I found them all at once at a brocante, incredibly, perhaps they came from the same collector, I was thrilled! They were pleased too, and it's fitting as my son's mother grew up the daughter of a worker at that brass manufacturer, a very famous one in Sweden.
    I highly recommend you order some acid free framing tape. It may seem pedantic, but really isn't, your prints will start yellowing in no time at all without it. But regularbtape will ruin them in weeks, so just make sure it's acid free paper tape and you'll have it on hand for any reframing purposes.
    Mirrors are gorgous! Love how they accentuate the height and add dimension!
    Oh and I never actually thought 3D printers were useful around the house like this at all. I certainly learned something new!
    How cool is it btw, to have your dad make your bespoke Barbie furniture?!
    Nice to see parents helping out, always so sweet.
    Keep smiling guys, this transformation is huge! This trio of private luxury is goingbto be the most beautiful space ever, I'd be very surprized if you don't get multiple requests from interior design magazines and online channels once you're done with this suite! ❤👌😍

    The mirrors are an awesome touch inside the moulding. For the black frames, one thing that you could use to fill in the cracks or breaks in the frame is Milliput, an epoxy putty that is easily moldable and can be sanded to a smooth finish and then painted. I have used it to repair broken tiles, including Delft, and other pottery and even cracks and missing pieces in floor tiles. Love the black and white paintings. They make a nice grouping.

The colors, the lighting are so calming. The 3D printer looks amazing and so useful. So sweet to see the Barbie furniture Philip made for Lily. When you were sailing I saw the Barbies floating along side the boat I had to smile because my granddaughter would do the same . Love all your treasures you brought back from your trip!

  • @cltransler
    @cltransler 2 месяца назад +6

    Tip on hanging multiple pictures in a group: Cut out paper the same size as the frames and test what you want by taping them on the wall. You can try all sorts of different configurations to find the best.
    In the US, the general recommendation (by who? I don't know) is 60" (152.4 cm) on center. Meaning the center of your photograph (or grouping) , is 60 inches from the ground. All my art in my home is 63" on center (I'm taller and I prefer that). There is always some math involved, but it's pretty quick. Because the wire hangers on the back can vary, I do the math for each--and write it on the back of the piece so I know how to hang it if I move the art or paint the room.
    As always, another gorgeous video.

    Love the printer, I taught 3D printing prior to the pandemic, we had much larger bulky printers, don’t let the filament dry up, print more things for the kids if nothing else, I would also unload the filament between jobs. I had another really nice website I can’t remember right now I will try to remember. You can also issue 3D max and design your own items.
