Annalise needs a salon room at the chateau since she is there so often. It would also be useful for guest to get their hair styled.

@dazereigh 27 күн бұрын

Good idea, perhaps it could also be used for the masseur?

Before there becomes a salon for the once a week hair stylist and masseur, I feel that Marie needs a professional kitchen.

I think you should photograph all of your plate settings and keep the pictures in a binder so you can make set up easier and anyone could help. BUT!! It also would be amazing to make a book to sell of “the place settings of Lalande.” You could insert all of those eye candy photographs, and include little history blurbs of some of the vintage China, flatware, etc. it would make a fabulous book!

Brilliant! Great suggestion. I would love ❤️ 😍 such a book!

@elisabeth6108 24 күн бұрын

I've thought how fun a book would be with a number of sections where for each section Philip starts with one constant - maybe a tablecloth or a China pattern - and then shows 3 completely different ways to design a table around it. He is so creative and talented.

I get to feeling very sad every time I see a critical/negative comment on one of these videos. What I then think about is the sheer delight and anticipation I feel every time a new video pops up in my feed - knowing I get a privileged, private ( but not so private - right!?) glimpse into a very, very special world that encompasses a beautiful, magical home - and can appreciate all the hard work it took to make it beautiful as Stephanie is bringing us along on this AMAZING journey, the friendships that have blossomed along the way , the warmth and laughter, an openess of spirit and heart we seldom see today. How lucky and how blessed we are to share in such joy. We get to meet the most incredible people - seeing some of the joys and heartaches along the way. A living, breathing history of one great life and all the lives Stephanie has touched in such a wonderful way. To know and appreciate that each video takes hours of labor to produce. Seeing the world through another's eye is such a special thing. Gratefulness and respect go a long way. Most people that criticize are usually that way towards themselves. Sad!

Next time just line a pot with aluminum pour hot water in, a few teaspoons of baking soda, put on stove and let simmer. Put in the silver for ten to twenty seconds depending on how tarnished the silver is, take out and wipe. So fast!! I did my mother's silverware cutlery set in less than an hour after being in hiding for over 35 years.

Stephanie, I have a "life hack" for you and your silver. You can actually polish silver using toothpaste. I buy the most inexpensive toothpaste I can find, and apply it with an old toothbrush or soft cloth/rag. The tarnish comes off and the silver smells lovely like mint when you're done.

@kathleenclark5877 27 күн бұрын

I do the same thing. It also works on gem stones as well, especially diamonds. They turn out especially sparkly. I guess we all want our teeth to look sparkly as well, don’t we?

I'm happy to hear the guests confirm what I believe -- the people at Lalande are as friendly and down to earth in real life as on the vlog. I don't doubt that there are downtimes as with everyone but character is clear. I remember when Pavlina arrived -- she was stunned -- she walked into the kitchen and there you all were, just the same she'd always seen on youtube. And she stayed. Best wishes to all.

If you store the silver napkin rings in a ziplock lock bag, they'll stay tarnish free longer. It's the exposure to oxygen that creates the tarnish.

@carolweaver3269 26 күн бұрын

Wonderful! Everyone looked so nice with hair done and Annalise never lets anyone down she over does herself always. Marie learned so very much at cooking school. She truly has the decorative talent. But she has the eye for it as she does with the arranging of flowers. sort of goes together! The work is alot but it is worth it to see the lovely faces of the guests and know they appreciate it all, and they feel it is home to them as well. making themselves so comfortable and feeling they can relax, says it all. Stephanie you certainly not only worked up a storm but then looked so stunning in your lovely dress and the Pink High heels. Nati always looks so smart and organized and giving this feeling to all as it is going as it should. Amaury wants everything just so, in order for anyone to see his 'Ingenius project" Perfectionist at heart. Poor Philip taking his turn to have to travel without you. It is hard, when you get used to doing all together though, After my husband and I retired, it started to change in this way, and being alone would seem very strange indeed. Can understand that feeling,
