We have the loveliest supporters and followers of our KZhead channel 'It's a Wonderful Life'.
We remain committed to provide our content regularly, and of late, to increase the frequency of our vlogs. We have and continue to receive, many kind requests, to send gifts, or in some way help us financially with our channel.
We have given this a great deal of thought. Whilst 'Patreon' and 'go fund me' are out of the question for us, we feel the 'buy me a coffee platform' (or for us, a cup of tea!) would be a great way to do this, especially in light of its ease of use and non ongoing commitment.
Any contribution towards maintaining and hopefully enhancing our channel is very much appreciated, but never expected.
Your home is becoming a show place Peter and Anna. Your skills and common sense to 'make it yourself' are spot on!
Peter you just Transform everything you touch your such a clever manxxxxxx
Hello Folks 🌷 Might be out of bounds, but rethink your stone peninsula in your kitchen 🌷. Love your idea finding hard wood cabinets🌷. With Peters expertise being a master wood worker - your kitchen will be wonderful 🌷
Good to have simple but effective jobs occasionally 😊
I love the dolor light, and your pergola is beautiful. What a great addition you designed Peter. Love the kitchen idea. Everything is looking gorgeous. Love seeing the chicken pop in to see you. Have a great week to you both .❤❤❤
You always do the best job! Much love from Oklahoma USA Jackie 🇺🇸 💖
Thanks for updating us on past, present and future projects. Plans for your kitchen sound very interesting - eagerly waiting. Solar lighting looks terrific. Maine USA
Love an unfitted kitchen. They are very popular here in the states for restoring historical homes
Very ambitious projects. I know they will be beautiful. Don't forget to enjoy yourselves during this spring and summer, time does fly. See you both next time.
Knowing you, that future kitchen will be amazing!
Like your longer haircut.
Love your plans so far your work has been outstanding so these latest upgrades Re: Kitchen will be amazing 👍
I NEED a PETER like this in MY LIFE!!!
Hahahaha. Don't we all...
Love all your wonderful ideas especially using the buffet's in the kitchen. Enjoy seeing all the enhancements to your home.
I have 20 or so solar lights, budget friendly from Amazon. I’ve had them going on 7 years now. I live in central Pennsylvania and I don’t even remove them in the winter! Every spring I need to replace 3 or 4 from the original batch for the last 2 years so you may be surprised how long they last! I’ve changed the batteries in these before with the proper solar replacement equivalent but they don’t always work out well. And the price difference of just buying new lights occasionally isn’t much at all. I love all the lighting, so pretty!
Loving all your plans Peter , Anna is a lucky lady 💕
Enjoy seeing how your home is coming along. It’s really enchanting
Wow the addition of your lights is amazing I love it ,great work as usual Peter 😊
Hello Peter & Anna. I'm shocked people are so pushy & obsessed with renovations. Its serves you now there is no rush. I suspect its Americans as they do seem to be obsessed with the newest, updated homes. There is no rush. You'll do if you want in your own good times. I'm very happy watching your progress, think your projects have been in best priority for practicality and use. PLEASE ignore bossy and pushy viewers, they need to sit back and enjoy and not be so critical and judgmental.
I know the feeling lots of jobs on the go and in the Uk have to do outside when it’s dry so inside gets left till colder days - I can imagine the kitchen sounds lovely ❤
The lighting is so pretty
Love all of your ideas.....sound amazing!! The solar lights look beautiful!
you have upgraded your area so nicely. Now you need to have a patio party.
Yard looks beautiful
Thank you for the update on all of the ongoing and upcoming projects Projects, you make my head spin! The solar lights although a simple project have made a great addition, hope they last longer than just this year. Kind regards 🌹 xx
I love your carpenter apprentice! 🐓 ❤ shes come to keep you company while you appear to be talking to yourself. She doesn’t know we’re here. I love your new home and gardens
That’s a lot more light than I thought you’d get 😊😊😊
Those lights look great. I like the plans for the kitchen and pool fence.
It all looks so very nice and inviting👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙋🏻♀️
The kitchen is going to be magnificent! Everything is just absolutely lovely! So happy that this is where you landed. 😊
Very nice. Thank you for taking your time and sharing with us. 🇺🇸
i don't mind the kitchen to be honest , looks good 😉 the pool looks lovely , good ideas for the pool surroundings 👍 Grts Yves
Nice addition 🤗👍🍻 Love Sue❤❤❤🇬🇧❤❤❤
love your idea for the kitchen, these things take time if you are looking for good pieces. I've seen the buffets or hutches you've looked at they are stunning, pool idea sounds great! planters and picket fences sounds perfect for your farm house
Thanks for sharing.😊
Looking forward to your future projects Peter and Anna. Great job on the poly tunnel. X😊
Looking fab, solar lights probably purchased from my favourite shop The big A😂❤
The solar lights look great!😎 You make installing the lights look so easy. I might even give it a try🤔
Wonderful addition! Very inviting!
Love all your plans. Excited to see the kitchen.
Love what you've done on the patio/outside area!

BEST WISHES TO YOU
Outside looking quite magical your kitchen ideas sound super can't wait for that and other projects
Looks lovely
You are both such visionaries . So admire that you know exactly what you want and when you do it , it will be perfection ! Great video.
I love the lighting, It is beautiful. Your garden looks amazing.
Lovely ❤
The pergola looks very inviting.
Peter and Anna your property is wonderful.👍
❤❤❤❤❤ lovely. I have to catch up on your vlog. I was away. ❤❤
I'm a big fan of solar lights around living spaces, they just look so inviting. You've made a great job with those lights, Peter. Looking forward to seeing you working on the next projects! Does France have a pool fence height regulation? Here in New Zealand pools must be fully enclosed with a high fence and locked childproof gate, even if there are no children around. Picket fences and planter boxes are illegal, but I think that yours will look beautiful! xx
Lots of projects in hand for the future Peter, Loving the concept of your kitchen very French Jai adore. My out side looks like a runway airplane will have no problem landing I love outdoor lights ,It just a bit of ambience. Your chicken likes to take the stage and being on camera🤣Love it . Cannot wait to see what you do next Peter😘
I can’t wait for the kitchen renovation! You are so lucky in France with the prices of vintage furniture you can transform! Pool fencing ideas are great, what are the regulations there? In Australia there are a lot of compliance safety regulations regarding fencing etc!
Love it!!!
Looking so nice!
Looks lovely x
All of these areas will be beautiful, amazing ideas. You all are doing a fine job. Have a lively week.
Aww lovely idea for the kitchen your a wonder at diy 😊aww that chicken does make me laugh every time your working she pops in hilarious and sweet.
I never thought you would install a bog standard kitchen. I like the idea you've come up with, it will be fab. Can't wait xx
Wow everything is starting to look so lovely! By mid summer with all of the plants in bloom it's going to be stunning! Bravo!
Looks great!
Very pretty ambiance. Love your new pergola area.
The solar lights really enhance the deck and surrounds! Looking beautiful 😍 BTW...what ever happened to the the cappaburras, the pond ratinskis, the little critters that had taken over? Still there?
I just love your channel. You are the cutest couple also! Have you considered glass enclosure or panels for the pool to block wind side. It is used a lot in windy areas. Also no disruption of view
This is a good idea ! Very popular in California.
Hello Peter and Anna. As always, you have imaginative and exciting ideas for your property. Love the idea for your kitchen. It’s going to look amazing. Hate all the cabinets on offer for kitchens as they are mostly made from chipboard and are not made to last. Picket fence around the pool will make such a difference. Anyway, I always look forward to your videos. Best wishes. Linda. Keep dancing 😊🕺💃
It looks awesome 🙂
I assume you have checked with the local code authority on the height required for that fence surrounding the pool? In my municipality the fence must be continuous and more than a meter high or they can force you to remove the pool.
Wow you have a lot of projects coming up. The kitchen makeover sounds wonderful. I have 11. Solar lights in my garden (small) makes me think of fairies only coming out at night. Might grow up one day lol. Xx
Othingwrong with that kitchen wish I could afford to buy a new kitchen
Have you got rid of those giant rats that you were feeding they carry so much bacteria and are very nasty to other pets
