Where's Nathan.
@@carlaburton3970 I was thinking the same thing. Surely he’ll be home from chefs school in time to prepare Christmas dinner before getting the lawn cut? 😉

Anna, your parents are amazing! Coming over to help you after the storm. Also I love your dad’s sense of humour.
They are!
So pleased that you have decided to keep those stunning cupboards and incorporate them into the design by adapting them. I think all your ideas are so appropriate for the room and the chateau setting. Anna your parents are incredible. Such energy!
Thanks so much! 😊
I always enjoy it when Patrick Stewart and his wife come to help out.
ahaha :)
Her dads name is John not Patrick
@@nylanelson8660 Yes but he looks like Patrick Stewart. It’s a joke.
@@sugarkane4830 , ok now I get what you were trying to say. I didn’t get it before as the only resemblance he has is an almost bald head
Your father reminds me of my father when we had a large storm here in Missouri. He drove from Michigan to help. He was a jewel. Praise your father!
I am in Mid-Missouri myself. I am done with destructive storms, $6,000 later in tree & debris removal. Mother Nature, hear my cry.
Your dad has saved you a couple of thousand dollars with all the work he has done. I had a couple of oak trees taken down and it cost me over $800.00. He sure is a hard worker. You Truly are blessed with your parents. 🇨🇦
I am certain the entire audience will join me in giving a very warm round of applause to Anna's parent.
Your parents are so wonderful-such hard workers-just amazing!! Can’t wait to see the kitchen take shape. I love it when your parents visit. You all are such fun. Hope John can rest up and enjoy the rest of their visit. Have a wonderful week.
They are!
This is my favourite tv show. Drama, comedy, mystery, it has it all!
I'm still laughing at the sound effect of Anna parking the trailer! Philip you are 100% hilarious! Just love following your family:)
We can see where Anna gets her hard working ethics from. Well done John & Jenny 🤗💪
you guys are the best part of sunday.
Philipp certainly looked very dapper with his jazzy new haircut! That chiseled jawline would slice through branches if the chainsaw breaks 😎
Thank you very much Myles ;)
I think he got Nathan to do it!!
John, you are a total star! ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Please look after your back! Your beloved son in law, the influencer of note, the hilarious organiser, the brilliant husband and father, should be bowing in gratitude for all you do! 😂 you and Jenny are very appreciated. Another perfect vlog. Thank you Anna, for putting up with Philips antics….. and for making sure there’s NO orange In the kitchen. Your family is so precious. Much love to you all from Sydney, Oz! ❤️
Anna ... Your Mum & Dad are Super-Heros !!! 💕 Such great human beings ... I see where you get your work ethic from. I've been loving your vlog series for ages now & truly look forward to the next, each time ... What a team !!! 💞 🇨🇦
Never piss Anna off , her dad wields that chainsaw like a master. With that chipper, you’d never be found..Fargo style .
Family willing to help is the best. ( Tip for John- fill a long sock with dry rice, tie the end, microwave for 2 minutes- Homemade heat pad. )
Seeing the changing of the leaves on those drone shots of the chateau and grounds is truly lovely.
I'm 69 years old...married 50. We've built seven houses/cabins. When it comes to counter tops I've learned a few things. You asked if wood would work. Most woods require upkeep. I prefer granite or quartz. This is THE counters in the U.S. I put hot pots on my granite countertops, and chop on top of them. Quartz is about the same. Popular right now is porcelain countertops. They weren't available for our last build. I'm not sure what you have available to you, but wood is questionable. You are my favorite chateau vlog.
Thoughts about a mud room when you enter to hide all the coats and boots . Another thought french doors instead of windows to open to the patio
Love to Mum n Dad....what a God send! 🍃🍂🍁🍂🍃
So true!
That’s what family is meant to be, a great team. Love seeing you all working together!
We agree!
Anna, you're blessed to have your parents pop over so often to visit and work hard on the chateau. It warms my heart to see how much they love you.
Love the interaction between Philip and Anna's parents. So funny
CHEERS to John & Wife....Truly is Backbreaking Labor 👏👏
Jenny :)
Philipp, maybe you could train one of your daughters (since you seem into that) to handle all the correspondence and appointments required of your Internet celebrity. Enjoyed hearing more about the kitchen plans. The parents/in-laws team was awesome in dealing with the storm devastation. I think this vlog even showed more of the scope of the damage and the cleanup required than your original vlog after the storm.
Graet idea with the daugther secretary!
So sweet of your Mom and Dad you are blessed Anna.
If you use wood as a work surface, try the butcher block technique of upended wood blocks, easier to scrape away any damage as they did with butcher blocks. There are some woods that are more food friendly like maple. You could also encastre a slab of marble into the worktop for pastry making. Maybe bind the worksurface with brass like a bistro and don't forget to round of the corners unless you want blue hips. Put a brass towel rail in two places. Just an idea xxx
Great ideas! I love my pastry stone area. A BIG yes on rounded corners.
My first thought was maple, too. It's worked for us. Marble inset and brass rails are also great ideas!
Such good ideas.
if your state kitchean approved please look into the requirements. so you dont have to redo. depends if your getting licenses etc.
We made beech cutting boards in my woodshop class. I say have Benoit look at that beech tree wood and see if it’d be suitable for a worktop table! Would want it kiln-dried, though maybe he has a place to do that?
Genug Holz, um den Winter über warm zu haben ;-) Holz heizt ja bekanntlich mermals: beim Scneiden, beim Hacken, beim Reintragen und im Feuer......... Möge das Euch bei der harten Arbeit trösten!
Glad you kept the two cupboards either side of mantle. I like that original touch.
WOW, that shredder is a workhorse and so is your dad !!!! (and mum)
For 30 years I have had an 11 foot by 5 foot butcher block wooden island in my kitchen. There is a 15 inch circular sink for vegetable preparation and a 7 inch hole opposite the sink that drops down to a trash container (there is a different place for recycling). There is a separate area in the kitchen for cleanup - a large sink and a dishwasher on either side of that sink. It has worked wonderfully. Approximately every 10 years we give it a light sanding and rub with mineral oil. It is low maintenance and we have had no problems with the wood and water. I based my kitchen layout on the kitchen at the Brighton Pavilion. It has worked wonderfully for just my husband and I or for large groups and caterers. Love your program!!!!
Perhaps you could send them a pic! Sounds perfect.
Anna’s parents are just the best!
that chipper made light worker of those branches!! It's fun to watch the time-lapse. I am glad that you and Anna have "decided" to go with a more country "chateau" look for the kitchen. Now colour....my vote is for a blue-grey theme, some darker grey to a lighter blue but with the same base. I've seen it done and it looks fabulous. If I get the chance, is how I am going to colour my kitchen. Anna's Dad is like the Energiser Bunny!!! He goes and goes!!
Thanks 👍
Color wise, if the orange is actually copper, then what about looking at the variations of verdigris that naturally complement it? That can be for flooring, bench, paint but in different tones and shades. And/or if you’re still using Anna’s grandmother’s painting, pull the colors directly from that.
I think a nice rich coral with a verdigris green combo would be nice. Compliments so much food and food artwork!
That would be be a warm inviting kitchen with enough rustic touch to compliment a chateau kitchen. 😊❤
I was thinking along the same lines. The floor was inspiring me, as was the copper pots. I think terra cotta would work, especially with a chateau kitchen. And the added bonus is it works with loads of other coloyrs, blues, yellows, greens, etc..
You have a very good idea- could be stunning!
How beautiful the trees are around the Chateau.
The father in law describes The Influencer perfectly, very distinguished.
Philipp... you continue to make me laugh out loud and I think this is the first Skill Share ad I've actually watched without fast forwarding.
I absolutely LOVE the new kitchen! I would suggest a quartz countertop, in a marble look, on the island! If possible, with a carved edge, like you see on antique furniture with marble tops, so it really looks like an old piece of marble. It is great for baking and cooking, easy to maintain, and it would keep the space light. And I would suggest a white and blue, perhaps a duck egg blue!! 😍
Thanks for the tips!
Great idea and I love the blue color too!
Marble is kind of high maintenance don’t you think? It stains and all. It requires upkeep for sure. But I think it may be better than wood upkeep.
@@MA-zg2pz Quartz, in a marble look 🙂 Quartz is very easy in upkeep.
I think this was one one my most favorite yet! Always a laugh out loud from Philip. I just adore your entire family! This week there were so many components , and it was truly entertaining! Thank you Anna and Philip and kudos to Anna’s Dad!
Glad you enjoyed it!
My kitchen island has a wooden top made from teak planks. We just lightly sand and oil it every two years with food grade wood oil and 8 years down it is still good. The one thing I am very strict about is not cutting directly on the surface so we always use chopping boards and trivets for hot pots. I also don’t really use any harsh cleaning products - only wipe it with a damp microfiber cloth. Never regretted changing the original granite top for wood.
Great parents they seem strong and healthy!❤️❤️❤️
Your mum snd dad are amazing! And what a great help they have given you!
You parents add so much to your videos we just love having them around,as we do Phillips mom, its just so enjoyable to have family around.
Anna, you are so blessed…what beautiful, lovely, kind parents ❤️
Hello to Mom & Dad!!! Phillipp's sketches are works of art!! Anna's explanations make it all very interesting and clear. I really like Philipp's telling us how he "Does It All"!! The"Urgent to do heap" is a great idea. The "Archive" is brilliant!! This level of efficiency is remarkable!!! It explains how he can do it all with only "a little help" from Anna. Dad's a wiz with the chainsaw!! Dad deserves the tea and chocolate biscuits!! Ella is adorable and smart.If you climb into a shredder you will "Get all Little". Good sound effects when Anna pulls up in the car! Love seeing Mom & Dad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Happy Thanksgiving from Vermont
Your children knows how to read safety guidelines! That was awesome
Wonderful to see your mom and dad again! They sure did get a lot done!
Wow!! How blessed you are to have Anna’s parents come and help!! I like your haircut too Philip!!
Love the kitchen restoration/adaptation ideas! For the island countertop, I think if you install a sink there, a stone counter might be the better choice. You can always place an extra large cutting board on top of the stone surface (for the chopping of vegetables, etc). Little injections of wood, plus the kitchen table, plus those gorgeous copper pots and pans will give you all the warmth the room needs. Just my two cents. :)
Great tip!
I would recommend that you have pot filler faucet that is placed in the wall above the range (they are foldable). It eliminates the need for carrying filled, heavy pots filled with water.
Marble is porous, so if red wine spills, I'm not sure you'd like it. There's gotta be another stone for pies that isn't marble, like quartz, which doesn't require sealing, and is heat scratch and stain resistant...and if you have enough cherry from your fallen trees, maybe use that for the butcher block, adding strips of other woods if not enough., like bamboo, or red oak, walnut, which you may have an abundance of on your property.
Hi, nice ideas but just want to clarify one thing.There’s a difference between quartz and quartzite. Quartz is a man-made material and it uses resin to bind chips of quartz and marble.The quartz is not heat resistant. The quartz top does get damaged if you put a hot pot on it due to the resin in it.Quartzite does not, as it is a natural material. It is a little expensive but it’s really beautiful. And it’s also good with stains. I prefer it over the man-made quartz. There is also a newish material that’s becoming popular that I just used on a residential project. ( I am an interior designer) It is porcelain slabs. Dekton Is one of the manufactures. The head company is Constantino and you can look on the website there.This company is in Europe and in the US. There are other manufacturers also such as Neolith. The material is absolutely beautiful, comes in a range of patterns and colors and because it’s porcelain, it is impervious to heat, stains, scratches, and can be placed outdoors where quartz cannot(due to the sun turning the resin yellow sometimes) Hope this helps!
I’ll be investigating this myself. Thank you for this insider tip!
Wonderful to see Anna’s Mum and Dad again. What a job there is still to do. I wish I could be there to help. Sending you good vibrations. Keep safe!!
The little girl is so lucky to grow up in such a dreamy place!
Yup. Awesome parents! Hug them, hang onto them. Just lost my mom. Worst day of my life. Our time with our parents is so precious.
I’m so sorry for your loss, Jana. You are very right that we only have our loved ones for a while, and no idea how long that might be. Wring the most from every day.
@@dougkelley2781 Thank you Doug.
@@arnicepernice8656 Thank you.
Wood and water = mold, wine spills on wood = heartache. From: One who's life is full of regrets.
We all need our mummy and daddy to help now and again ... they are so amazing . Well done for coming over. Yay such a great job.
Wow Anna your dad is a machine he’s doing a fantastic job and he knows what he’s talking about too. Well done dad .
Your parents are amazing, Anna! My back was hurting just watching your Dad. We did so much of that after Hurricane Hugo, every time I hear a chain saw I still think of that. Our neighborhood is heavily wooded, so this time of year we are piling as many leaves as we can into our compost bins. What lovely mulch you have there! Hard work….they say busy hands are happy hands! Smiles to you all!
Thank you so much!
You can really tell that your youngest daughter is her grandfathers as she has some of his features. Both of your daughters are so adorable and such great helpers!!!💖💝💖
So lucky to have such active parents. Phillip must have some acting training , always the jokester. Really enjoy watching.
I can't believe Philipp forgot to add "influencer" to his list of job titles... But wait - I spoke too soon ; he managed to mention it :)
Thank God Anna Family is with you. Such big help.
Add some rice to a sock and tie the top. Put it in the microwave for maybe 30 seconds, depends on your microwave. Check to see, it should be heated. Then put it on your dads back. Poor chap. If you want to be fancy, sprinkle some spice in, cinnamon or lavender. I sew packs for gifts, I make strips like short scarves and baffle them so the rice does not shift to one end. They work great and drape beautifully over shoulders, legs, etc., they can be made with lovely fabrics and sold if you have a gift shop or include them in your rooms in cooler months.
Your Mom and Dad are amazing! My parents in the day were the same. They are such a blessing and that was some hard work! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yes! Thank you!
Ok, hold on !!! You’ve been hiding the cellar from us. Now we really must see it !!!
You should definitely think of a pot filler above your range cooker. And also consider installing a faucet that has boiling hot water, can cool water and even make it sparkling etc. (There is one from quooker and grohe I think)
That is a great idea and a must!
The boiling water and chilled water tap is great for cuppas and a cold drink! And handy with guests and saves on fridge opening!
I think GREEN would make a great kitchen colour..........keep up the great work guys
I think so too!
I have a feeling that Anna will choose green anyway🤣. It’s also my favourite colour as it’s so diverse. Many greens marry well with copper accessories so that’s the orange compromise taken care of too. Would look magnificent.
Le parc du château paraît beaucoup plus grand maintenant que la nature a fait son travail !
Skillshare is lucky to have you. You are the funniest couple to watch and I look forward to watching you every week.
These are my favourite videos!! And I really appreciate Phillip’s wonderful, dry sense of humour🤣😂
HA!! Love "Anna's Password for everything". LOLOLOLOL :-)
The greatest introduction to the sponsorship. Love the videos
Glad you like them!
love your sponsor integrations - so on brand!
I love Anna’s mom and dad! Such great people. You are so fortunate to have an amazing family. Philipp, I know you love your wood chipper but don’t show your little girl how to turn it on, gives me a heart attack!! I know you were kidding around and my goodness she is just the cutest child. The sound affect when Anna stopped the car with the trailer was hilarious! Love your humor. The kitchen is going to be awesome. Another great vlog! 💕
Anna, I love your parents both, but your dad , he is just so awesome!!!
Loved watching as normal . Philipp did not disappoint me as normal. loved watching you all xx
Glad to have the kitchen update. And hugs to your parents, Anna. They are true team members for this chateau renovation. Cheers, Anna’s parents!!
You both have a wonderful loving and kind parents and they are hearty working people! I hope your dad's back is okay with all cutting of the wood!
People should pay you (oh wait) to make advertisements . They are hilarious ...made me want to watch it all the way through.
Glad you enjoyed it :)
The most entertaining, heartwarming channel on KZhead love it xxx
You can bag mistletoe and freeze it then bring it out when you're ready to use it.
I'm no Health and Safety officianado but I get quite concerned when I see so many 'chateau' folk not taking even basic sensible precautions when doing major DIY work. That being the case, it was so good to see your dad, and Philip, wearing appropriate safety clothing and equipment. What a worker your dad is! Sounded like he needed a good old soak in a Radox bath to ease his back after all his hard efforts. The kitchen ideas sound much more in keeping with the original chateau style, but allowing for modern conveniences. Your final choice of colour will be interesting, but I think you are right to avoid orange. :-) It will be interesting to see the full results once it is completed.
So nice your parents are visiting again. Love the design and how you are keeping and reusing the door. Can't wait to see the kitchen finished. lol, lol, love your organizational skills Phillip!!! lol Dad has done a lot of work out there ... lol, yes nice haircut. Yes, her Dad is so nice, yes the CHIPPER!!! lol, good job driving the tailor. That was a lot of tree mess!!! Dad did a great job and the Chipper is a great machine for your property. Anna, you are very much like your Mom, lovely person. All the best to you all.
It’s nice to see the parents again, they obviously love spending time with you guys.
What special memories you are making with your family!
Wonderful beautiful family! I love the Phillip humor! I love the renovation and creativity of Anna!
Wood chipper looking like a smart investment after that crazy storm damage!
Good man, your dad. Seeing him work as the camera is sped up, reminded me of the marvel character Quicksilver. You will have to call him Quick-Silverfox. ;)
Love the plan to keep the kitchen in the style of a chateau. I’m sure wood was a standard back in the day. However, I have had a real oak center island hand crafted by an old-school woodworker. It was absolutely beautiful but a royal pain to maintain. I am a relatively neat, non destructive person. I could not be careful enough to maintain the butcher block. Finally about 5 years ago I changed it to LG quartz that looks like Carrara marble. It is beautiful and a dream to use. Used a double thickness with combination of 2 edges stacked. Looks old world with none of the trouble.
Thanks for the tip!
and will still be having a dining table in wood.
Love the open glass windows on cabinet because things will be kept clean there. You can show off your china and special items. The kitchen looks great and love the ideas.
Anna's Dad is such an impressive worker !! So lovely to see the parents again! And Philip's "filing system" - hilarious! ;-) But, hey, at least he looks distinguished!
Anna, your mum and dad are such good fun. Whenever I watch your videos I end up smiling.
I luv seeing your parents. They are so lovely.
Anna’s parents are a godsend
I always get a laugh out of your vlogs, thanks
Glad you like them!
So enjoy watching your dreams become realities!! I too know the joy of having my parents, who live in the USA, come for a visit. It Is amazing how much we get done working together! Our little girls so enjoy having their grandparents close by. Blessings from El Salvador!
Anna you are so lucky to have your Dad with you to help with the storm damaged trees, I’m sure he is only delighted to be joining you and the family and to be able to help so much x
In your busy season, you will be cooking for many people, it might save you a little time to put a small sink directly beside the stovetop to strain out all the pots you will inevitably be cooking which would allow your central island for plating meals. And if you install a pot-filler tap on the wall above the cooktop you can fill them without having to lift large, heavy pots across walking spaces... which will save your back.
Phillip your filing system is first class, should be adopted in more homes .....thank goodness for the wood mulcher.
