Patrick and Stuart countdown until Christmas with this special episode for the first Sunday of Advent. Patrick demonstrates how to make your own holiday bows with a beautiful peacock wire ribbon. They also begin decorating the chateau for the holiday season.
Join Patrick and Stuart on their journey to find a neglected, forgotten, or crumbling château in France, and then continue to follow them as they work on its restoration, rénovation, decoration, and furnishing. Along the way, they will also create and share videos on their preparation for having gîtes for guests, and an event venue in their chateau (wedding, birthday, anniversary, organization or club meetings, retreats, etc.).

Patrick and Stuart, Thanks, you two. You are doing just beautifully, sharing your journey with us so generously, bringing in the Yuletide with creativity, warmth and joy. I send you Advent greetings from the Green Mountains of Vermont where I am opening up the box of decorations, feeding the birds and squirrels in my yard, setting up some lighted trees out front, and making mulled cider and cranberry sauce, while hanging out with you ( :

Making the Christmas decorations is something I loved to do. With very full and long garland swags for over the doorways. Wrapped for lights and all the trimmings. Taught my daughter to make the bows and decorations and then my daughterin law. And now they show me what they have made for their homes. It warms up the house through cold Winter months. We start right after Thanksgiving. And slowly get it all done.

Good morning Patrick & Stuart, just loved this episode!! The peacock plate is just gorgeous. Something different and so stylish. The bow turned out beautifully and the small blue bells just finished it off. You are very talented. This is the greatest time of the year, not for the sake of food and decorations, for me it is the beginning of the greatest Love Story ever told. If we pause for a second and allow all the thoughts of His love flood our minds, it is just mind blowing. Can't wait to see what you are going to share with us. Things are already starting to take shape. You have inspired me to get myself sorted. Looking forward to this season. We do not have snow, it has been raining quite a bit and the air is chilly. It can become extremely hot during December so the majority of people in S. Africa take to the outdoors. We just love to be at home, appreciate what we have and enjoy. I just know your home is going to look fabulous. Enjoy all the decorations, all the planning remember to take care no slipping or falling off ladders even a two step one. Then when all the décor is done it will be time to start on baking and fill the house with the smell of spices and all other good things. Many blessing, be safe. Kind regards

Patrick honey, you're a veritable artiste with ribbon! Fresh out of art school, I worked in Visual Merchandising and would work 16 hour days on everything Christmas. It was a pleasure to watch you and Stuart "properly fluff out a tree", as we used to say. It was probably my greatest skill among all the other people at the company. I knew what a real tree was supposed to look like. Thanks for reminding me of when I felt fabulous!

Oml!!! That garland is gorgeous 😍 🥰🥰🥰🥰 I love watching how people decorate their homes during Christmas. It just fills me with such magical memories of how my family use to decorate. Although majority of my family haven't really shared a full on family Christmas since my grandparents died and things here in New Zealand just got too expensive my parents made it a habit of at least putting up the tree. My father loved Christmas. My father use to bring home every year a real tree when I was younger. The smell of a pine tree on a warm summer breeze with bells and decorations jingling in the evening is just magical. So many wonderful memories but now my father has passed (many yrs ago) my mother and I still put up the tree ( a fake one now but still beautiful) and celebrate Christmas with talks of the past, good food and watching Hercule Poirot 🤣🤣🤣🤣 and what has made our Christmas even more special is my daughter. We've already planned next yrs Christmas and it'll be with a real tree 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 your guys advent vlog was just the right amount of magic i needed to pick me up today!!!

When the Grands came with parents for Christmas I put the jingle bells on all their bags and gifts. It was fun when they got ready to leave all the bells would jingle as they walked to their cars.

Absolutely beautiful. I love the peacock ribbon, it really did crown the staircase Patrick. The lighting and outdoor decorations are magical. I am about to start my own decorating... Mine usually goes up on the 1st of December and comes down on the 1st of January. Its time to plan the menu as well now and table theme, I am going for a red, white and wood Scandinavian theme this year. Making the tablecloth and napkins as we speak 😘

@patrickjourneytothechateau9452 Жыл бұрын

You are so creative. Wonderful. I like the Scandinavian themes. My mom did that for years. Now I am going to the complete opposite. The more opulent, the better 😂. Glad you like the decor. We are about 25% done. 😮. I know you are having fun. Much love from Colombe and don’t get a sunburn! 🎄☃️🎁🎀🎄

The château is getting so Christmasy!!! it was funny to watch the procession of the dogs coming in after you. That’s a lot of supervisors lol Stewart I am assuming that you’re doing all the editing and production work. I have to say it was absolutely extraordinary. Thank you for your hard work. I am done decorating. I have a medium size house old with three trees, three small trees, and then decorations everywhere, garlands, etc. Had to do it early so I could do friends houses as well. My body is beat up so I am taking it easy sending love as always.

Thank you for the inspiration. The bows are so lush. An assemble-a-tree is a holiday tradition at my home, too. Your holiday lights are fabulous. Hung a real wreath on the door. Have potted Amaryllis bulbs for gifts, mostly. My cat helped.
