A huge thank you to Vivienne for showing us her incredibly beautiful home. If you'd like to see more, please check out Vivienne's Channel here: @ChateauLove
Vivienne also has a store, www.chateau-love.com, where Philip bought the incredible citrine necklace for my birthday!
This is the correct version! Sorry to those who saw the earlier version, I accidentally uploaded a previous version without all of the B-Roll. This one should show you all of the rooms ❤ - Philip
I thought something was off 😂
❤❤❤❤
No worries, Philip. With everything going on, things happen, and this "thing" was easily fixed. At least I hope it was an easy fix. Thank you for all that you do.
Thanks Philip! MUCH BETTER! Shows us viewers how much talent it takes to compile your vlogs!! Thanks for taking note of our grumpy comments!
Can Isabella do floors and windows????
Vivian is not only charming and knowledgeable, but she's so talented. What an artist! Her taste in decor is exquisite!
Her painting was reminiscent of Botticelli !
Vivienne is just the most charming woman. I find myself smiling as she speaks. You have some marvelous friends Stephanie and Philip. Thanks to all for this video.
You included everything except the fire and brimstone... or was that implied? Stephanie may be more fit for eternity than most. p.s. JOY is one of the prerequisites!! Which Stephanie has an abundance of! @@mindonthingsabove
Also love the kitchen, but who wouldnt'? two dishwashers! yes!
Vivian is a breath of fresh air and absolutely gorgeous, talented and kind. This is a beautiful Chateau filled with stunning art works, furniture and loved treasures, thankyou for sharing your home 😊
Beautiful Chatueau 😍
Such a beautiful Chateau!!!
I feel like I received a bonus today!
Vivian is so talented, I love her paintings and everything she created. Such a beautiful lady inside and out.
I absolutely love Simon and Vivienne's style. It is warm, comfy, cozy, and interesting. It doesn't take itself too seriously. However, there are points of serious high-end antiques and objects of beauty and art. I love it! A wonderful amalgamation of American and European sensibility. 🥂🍾🎆❤️🔥
Well said!
Blue boy and Pinky were a fashion trend. My grandmother had their portraits hanging in the hallway on both sides of her front door. Oklahoma city 1950s and 1960s. So of course I researched them. Interesting history.
I even had tiny versions of them in my dollhouse. ❤ They mark the time when blue became for males instead of red and pink. Females got the pink. ❤
The original paintings can be seen at the Huntington Museum and Gardens in Pasadena, California.
Vivienne, the needlepoint rug is gorgeous. You are creating the beautiful home imaginable. I love it.
Vivienne is a remarkably talented artist with impeccable taste. Love her bird plates - what a labor of love.
Those plates are exquisite... and evidently one of a kind! I wonder what the process would be to reproduce them... I would buy at least one... or two!
I am in awe of Vivienne's incredible talent. She creates such beauty throughout her home. Thank you Stephanie for another wonderful video.
Vivian and Simon have lovely taste. Beautiful home.😊
That buffet in the dining room is jaw-dropping it’s beautiful I’m not sure if I would paint it or change it. But I know With Vivians exquisite taste it will be beautiful
Acorns & oak leaves are symbolic of prosperity, good fortune, youth, fertility, rebirth, ward off evil, innocence & new beginnings.
Vivienne is so incredible talented. Those hand painted bird plates are spectacular. Beautiful chateau. thanks for the tour and will look forward to more on Chateau Love.
What a lovely person she is very warm and A Beautiful Château thank you Ladies
Like I said before the most beautiful chateau
My dream home! What a beautiful chateau! I love hearing about the history and the renovations.
Those plates are an eye-opener. I knew you painted, but these are extraordinary. 🇦🇺
I felt in love with your kitchen 💖😍
Vivienne didn't disclose that she got a really good price on those chairs at the Hogwarts auction.... Beautiful home!
An equally spectacular space
Love the Stag statue viewed just through the kitchen window, absolutely gorgeous!
I love Vivienne & Simon’s chateau. So beautiful. ❤
What a kitchen!!! I absolutely LOVE that you do not have a raised bar counter!! And the plan for catering! So wise!
What a lovely home, with lovely owners, and it was just such a romantic tour. Thank you for sharing. Hello from the mountains of central Arizona, USA...
Those bird plates are absolutely Devine! Stephanie and Vivienne both look beautiful in their soft flowing sun dresses.
Delightful!
Good taste in splendor!
Great video also a guided tour of antique and charity shops ? Don't tempt me with a good time!
The difference between the two vlogs with and without the B roll is a great study in editing. You and Stephanie could do a workshop at Lalande. Viviane could do a workshop on building an online Chateau shop. See all of her beautiful items.
Oh my goodness! That's the most beautiful home I have ever seen. Well done
¡Belissima! 😍😍😍😍
Wonderful Chateau. Vivian has designed two Chateaux over 20 years, so she has a detailed, rich but relaxed style. I love the funny touches added in. It is great that one day there will be 7 or 8 bedrooms completed. ❤
I think Vivian's chateau as far as the decor is my favorite! It is so homie and cozy even as large as it is. Much love from Oklahoma USA Jackie 🇺🇸💖 PS Stephanie's my favorite also, remember Stephanie you have lots of favorites lol
Thanks Stephanie for this wonderful tour of This wonderful chateau! The way you two ladies giggle and dialogue is so joyous! I feel like part of the gang!
What a remarkable talented woman she simply shines as does her lovely husband, What delightful and close friends they have become, cultured, elegant and you all fit together like gloves x lovely to see. X
It was like a ping pong repartee of artistic, talented, accomplished ladies ...who seem amazingly void of ego ...only JOY in life, their partners, beauty, nature, and art!
It's a Dream❣️Beautiful ❣️So much Amazing Talent in this Wonderful Family ❤
Wow what talent. Love getting to know Vivian a little more.
Wonderful, wonderful! What a joy you all are. Just lovely.
There is so, so much to be impressed with inside and out of Vivienne and Simon's unique Belle Epoque Château de la Croix-Boisée. I love the range of periods and styles of the beautiful furnishings but of it all I am in awe of the Limoges porcelain plates that Vivienne so perfectly hand-painted with various colorful birds and greenery.
A very talented family .thank you for showing us your beautiful home
I wonder if the present owners of Vivienne's old chateau would allow her to give a tour of what they did there!!! I would LOVE to see that! ❤ I loved this SO much. You brought out her playful side and the explanations added so much! Well done! I agree she has a warm and beautiful home! I mentioned quite some time ago on a Chateau Diaries episode that Mummy reminds me of Joan of Arc. I still think so. People comment on her "gruffness" for lack of a better word. But I think it's because she has standards that she doesn't like to see people cross. She doesn't suffer fools or laziness easily. She's the Joan of Arc of LaLande! 😊🤗🧐
Vivians paintings are beautiful...I LOVE them and the plates OMG STUNNING I LOVE the birds to who knew how talented you are and have been hiding. You should paint again or do commissions true artist it should be shared ❤❤
Thank you for uploading the correct version.
The Original Blue Boy and Pinky are hanging in the Huntington Library in California. They are incredibly beautiful.
This was absolutely wonderful, a pleasure to be a part of. Vivienne is such a lovely lady and the two of you did a great job with the tour. You are all lovely people and I thank you for including us.
Wow, just Wow, Vivienne & Simon!! Such an amazing chateau!! The beauty, charm, romantic & historical detail. Just love it!! 🇺🇸
Absolutely gorgeous Chateau I will be rewatching this
I think that a home is a reflection of the people/family who live in it so to say that this is a most amazing chateau is a direction reflection of what wonderful people reside in it. I swear it isn't fair that some people get all of the talent, beauty and fascinating lives while the rest of us can't draw a straight line and live in tiny apartments. I would be a bit bitter over it but since you are kind enough to share a little of yourselves and your home then I guess I will still have to think you are wonderful. lol
A couple in NY lived in a tiny one bedroom apartment and 50 years ago bought cheap paintings from young artists. They had OK jobs, but not great. They later had dealers look for them, only bargains of strange new artists. They hung paintings on the ceiling when they ran out of room on the walls and stacked them under the bed. A new wing of a museum is opening up for their collection, which they are leaving to the world.
Absolutely wonderful, I enjoyed that very much.
Just WOW!!! Oddly enough, it makes me think of Dan's little château with its brick & stone stripes.... and his chateau is a blank canvas. Oh the possibilities
I thought the same thing!
This was so wonderful. I’ll now have to add Chateau Love to my subscriptions.
Vivian should sell prints of her paintings they are amazing
This chateau is stunning and functional. Thanks for the tour.
Vivian is such a talented artist and it is not only reflected in her painting but in her decorating as well. How very kind of her to give such a lovely tour. Like minded friends make for joyful days of sharing and socializing - you are blessed to have a one another.
Very nice thank you
I really enjoyed the pottery painter video Vivian did! That was amazing.
😍Pass the keys! I'm moving in!
Vivian your dinner China is Amazing! You are so talented. Thank you for showing your Birds to your viewers.
The chateau is gorgeous inside and out. So many different styles but arranged in the perfect places
We love all of you ! Thank you Stephanie for showing Vivian and Simons beautiful Chateau! 🙏💖
So beautiful place and Mrs Vivian you’re so amazing tour-guide !! I love your place very beautiful👌🏻😉👏🏻👏🏻💖
And now we can understand what a precious work editing a video is!
"Everything can be functional and beautiful. There is no reason why it can't be. And nothing that we own should not be used." Love this!
Well done Phillip! Thank you for the complete video.
Vivienne is such a talented person. I have watched her channel and it is so much fun. You showcased the chateau wonderfully and thanks❣️
👍 👍 💯
Well, we’ve seen a different side of Vivienne ❤ I knew Vivienne and Simon’s Chateau was beautiful from their channel but this tour is amazing 🥰 Didn’t know Vivienne was an artist 💖 Thank you 🙏
Vivian, those plates! They are amazingly beautiful 😊
Vivienne and Simon are so talented. Their chateau is gorgeous! I really like the way it is both beautiful and lived in!
I just want Vivian to decorate and source art and furniture for me. She has amazing taste and I love how it all coordinates without being matchy matchy. I also adore birds.
Brilliant! Thank you for sharing your magnificent home which really suits your personalities and zest for life, Vivienne and Simon and such stories! And thank you Stephanie for bringing us along on the tour.
Love Vivienne’s taste and skill in decorating. Simon’s skills are also fantastic. I was also impressed with her paintings. How does she decide where to sit as there are so many beautiful, comfy rooms. The roses were fabulous. Always love watching Chateau Love vlogs. Would love to stay there some day and return to the Loire. Thanks for the interesting and entertaining vlog.
OMG soooo beautiful ❤
Oh my gosh, my two favorite châtelaines at Vivienne and Simon’s!! LOVED the tour of her their beautiful home even tho I’ve seen much of it on their channel. Loved hearing the history of how everything has come together. Loved seeing you all together. Simon and Vivienne are so talented and their home is so beautiful!! Thank you so much Stephanie for sharing and for Vivienne opening up their home to us!! Love to you all from Mary in Southern California 💗
Thank goodness you sorted it out! It was such a tease, 😂
Tip for vacuuming your wrinkly rug: a Dyson stick vacuum - on LOW SPEED! It is an a-ha moment that should work!
Such a stunning chateau, decorated with a relaxed style, elegance and a touch of quirkiness. Love so many of the pieces including Vivian’s artwork and painted plates. Vivian is an astonishingly creative artist and this is reflected in everything she does. Everything is well thought out and has a story. Simon is also talented, skilled and a passionate foodie. Both complement each other beautifully and have a warm and endearing energy with a lot of humour. Lovely chateau and a home.
I did not want this tour to end. I am just amazed at all the historic and whimsical furnishings Vivienne and Simon have collected over the years to showcase in this luxurious, friendly, comfortable, chateau of a home.
AND THE STORIES THAT GO WITH.
This shows what decades of collecting, learning, appreciating and loving art, history, beauty and celebrating life results in. The hand painted plates are a labour of love on top of exceptional talent as are other pieces. Vivienne and Simon are a wonderful team, lovely people and friends to you Stephanie & Philip!
The original paintings of “Pinkie” and “The Blue Boy” by Thomas Gainsborough (18C, English) on which Vivienne’s grandma’s needlepoints was based are actually in the Huntington Library, Art Museum & Botanical Gardens in San Marino, California (open to the public).It’s near Pasadena. We visited when we were in LA. Worth a whole day visit !
I think that you two ladies bring so much light and happiness to people. I know things happen in your everyday experience but still you project positivity. The chateau is so colourful and full of energy❤. Thank you, crystal ladies😊
Love everything about this video. What a treat. Thank you so much for giving your viewers an inside look of Chateau Love and your friendship with Stephanie and Philip🥰
Vivienne is a great artist ‼️
What a special friendship...shared passions, interest, knowledge of beauty and historical context.
What a wonderful opportunity for us to experience the delicious home of Vivienne and Simon. They are as beautiful inside as out. I fell in love with Vivienne the first time I found her on KZhead being a creative just brings joy to our lives. Thank you both Stephanie and Philip for creating this delicious experience.❤️🇫🇷❤️🇫🇷❤️🇫🇷
Vivienne has wonderful taste! What a beautiful home❣️👏🏻👏🏻
Wha a delight - that gorgeous chateau, its history, gardens, and furnishings, the art (loved Vivienne's), and all of you. Thank you so much.
I dont think I have ever really seen the exterior of this chateau. I love it!
This chateau is sooo gorgeous and I love the kitchen it's great. Thank you Viviane and Stefanie 😍🥰
Love! Love! Love this tour! Just so beautiful! Thank-you so much!
Your plates are beautiful works of art. You are very talented and inspirational.
Vivian is one of the most classiest women I’ve seen. She is beautiful talented and so gracious. She and Simon are so in love. The Chateau is an expression of both of their creativity and beautiful characters.
I could see "Architectural Digest" devote an entire summer's month edition to this chateau. Cover to cover.
Vivian is such a lovely and talented lady
😍😍😍 what a beautiful place! That statue in the fountain, just WOW!!! Such a great painter also! Lovely to discover more about these two. You have the loveliest friends! ❤❤
A magnificent and dreamy château. Such good taste, such ambience, and opulence.
