Winter has been wet and gloomy. Although I have a tons of projects (mostly paintings- like exterior windows) to get done outside, I would need a few no rainy days to do that and they are just not happening. It’s been very wet and cold. -1C feels like -10 in my opinion, it’s the moisture in the air. So I have been working on refinishing furniture that I found at the brocante. I am pretty happy with the end result, stay with me to find out how much I paid for the nightstand. It’s marble and solid wood. I also made over the door pediment, it was a pretty fun craft. The apartment renovation continues. We run into a hiccup there, so much humidity at night over there, we would find small puddles on the floor every morning in January. #19thcentury #castle #chateau #chateaudiy #countryside #loirevalley #movingtofrance #renovation #saumur #vlog

Welcome back! I like the furniture renovation. The stone work on the front of the chateau is gorgeous and still in good condition, at least from the video.

Reading up online abt condensation droplets, they suggest cross ventilation by open a window downstairs and upstairs to encourage airflow. Also some discussion on a dehumidifier as a temporary solution and also insulation. Not sure if this is your problem without other details. Wondering if cement render or lime on walls as lime absorbs water as far as I understand it. And if paint is lead based or lime based. But I’m no expert. I just watch a lot of renovation programs! All the best.

You are right on a lot of things. Probably a little bit of everything applies in this case. We are resolving it but by bit 👍

Hello, thank you, yes we are well. No, they didn’t finish. One of them got very sick as well and we missed the deadline. Conflict of schedules after that. Happens. But they are coming back very soon. I might have a video but it’s mostly about other things around here and not renovating…so I am debating whether I should upload it or not. I know most people like renovations strictly.

@@countrylivinginfrenchchate2676 Remodeling is worse than a new build 🙁 You have my sympathies. Glad to hear you are all well. Lastly, I think we'd all enjoy a catch up. Feel free to download the miscellaneous and mundane 😃
