I know you both will work it all out and it will look fabulous!
The French horn on the shelf in the give your working on would make beautiful Christmas decoration on the front door. Maybe a floral arrangement incorporated with it.
Dear Patrick and Stewart, how very exciting to renovate this second gite. The layout is great and it’s quite spacious. You both have such good taste so there is no doubt it will be beautiful. By the way, it’s fun hearing you interact and plan the layout. The floor plan really helped us visualize the space. This will be a fun project. Patrick, feel better. Many hugs. ❤
So many things to look forward to❤️
Hurray ❤❤
Gosh! You’ve got a collection of antique furniture. Stored in there, with your thoughtful planning I’m sure you’ll polish the rough diamond. Good luck gentlemen.
Love watching
Great plan guys, always moving forward, best wishes for your new project and Patrick feeling 100% real soon. ❤❤❤
Forgot, see quite a few beautiful things that can be reperposed!!!
You have some beautiful pieces of furniture in the gite – can’t wait to see how you incorporate it all!its going to be a darling little cottage !❤❤❤Patrick I do worry about you …. Too many colds this year😢😢😢please take care🙏
maybe a murphy bed in bedroom 1?
Excited to see what magic you make with Gite 2! I am sure it will be lovely. ❤
Oooo this looks like an exciting space to watch! Can't wait to see what you do with it!
Patrick, get well soon. The plans for gite#2 sound great. The door open, showing the green trees, made it look like a mural. I look forward to seeing you work on this.❤
This is going to keep you very busy over the winter months. Hope you're feeling better, Patrick. Sending hugs. Xxx
Hi guys! Can’t wait to see what you do with it. Would you ever consider a Murphy bed wall unit in bedroom #1? Installed one and it seems to free up an awkward room I have.
Just wondering if in the second bedroom it would work better if you had two single beds and a bedside cabinet between them ?
The next project sounds wonderful. And it’s great to have 2 gite options with 1 bathroom downstairs and 1 upstairs to suit guests. The garden and lake across the road sounds intriguing. Perhaps a glimpse in a future vlog?
Hope you recover soon Patrick! 😷 ❤️❤️
Where will you put a shower room?
Wow I cant believe how much you've accomplished the two of you in such a sort time. I've finally cought up on the vlogs and all I can say is wow., your chateau looks beautiful, they work you've done is amazing and cant wait to see what you do next. Well done on all the hard work and thank you for sharing your family life with us all. Weither it be happy or sad, serious or entertaining we enjoy it all , you are a pleasure to watch . Thank you , God bless you both and good luck for the future. I will be watching all future episodes with excitement ❤😊
Ps Get well soon xxx
How exciting. Patrick, please take care of yourself. Hugs.
I am so excited to see the progress of your second gite! Having walked through it when I was there, I could see the potential, but also the challenges. You two will make it a beautiful place to stay, you are so talented and hardworking! I think a french door with glass panels all the way down, or a large window if you want to close it, would be amazing the second bedroom and give so much natural light, especially since the room is so long and narrow. Whatever you choose to do though will be beautifully done, just as you always do! ❤❤
I hope.. you’re feeling better soon Patrick & Stewart stays well! Exciting times ahead with the new gite.
Can't wait to see how you transform the 2nd Git.
How exciting!
The floor plans are challenging with the walls and it is a good idea to decide the placement of furniture before renovation. I’m sure it will turn out wonderfully. Take care my friends, Ralph Rocchiccioli
Plans are good. I like that you incorporated storage under the stairs.
Thank you for keeping the Floorplan up, it helps!!!
I’m REALLY looking forward to this!! Do you guys ever feel overwhelmed?
WOW, wow, WOW! If anyone can, you two will make this space beautiful. You are loving this place back to life!
😂 Hello Patrick and Stewart. I had to look for a dictionary. Gite means rural house? That was the description. It is a new word for my vocabulary.
It hss been a difficult week among 2 relatives that passed away in 48 hours, my son who got real sick and we spent amost every day visitimg labs and doctors. Thank God today he looks almost back to normal. And on the other hand… What can I say… It has been not easy. People seem to be ok one day but on the other one they get seek and it is the end in hours. But we are thankful to God for he gave both of them time to be happy surrounded by their beautiful families. So..
I have been away from chateau de colombe and my DIY did not go beyond cleaning my buffet cabinet. So.. This has been my week but I am back to Colombe. Lots of hugs ❤
What a fun video! I really enjoyed hearing you collaborate and plan.
Moving forward with Gite 2 is fabulous. It will be amazing I’m sure!
Hi Stuart and Patrick– for the larger angled bedroom, is moving the entry door into the room closer to the shared wall with the smaller bedroom an option? that would then open up more wall space along the straight wall that the bedroom shares with the kitchen. The headboard of the bed could then go against that straight wall, with the footboard facing toward the angled long wall. Anyway, can't wait to see what you do with this space. I am sure it will be fabulous!
Hi guys, sorry you still feel like crap Patrick !! Hope you feel 100% soon! What a fantastic space!! And some beautiful furniture! I think that it’s going to be fantastic! And you are getting the best of both worlds, one accessible one not. Can’t wait to see it coming along. How exciting!! And the dinner set is Beautiful!! ❤ keep up the good work guys! 😘😘
so exciting !!!
For your 2nd gite, you can build a wall of your metal studs, and. create a 90 degree wall.
I can't wait for the next renovation ❤
How exciting getting started on the 2nd gite. Looks like it will be a big project and looking forward to seeing how you progress. I see some lovely furniture . Hope you can use most of it.
I'm sorry he isn't feeling well and trying to measure and think out a plan is hard right now. but it sound great what you are doing and can hardly wait to see your design.
Well I think this gite is going to be lovely. And it looks like there is some really nice pieces of furniture there! Not sure if they were left there or you’ve been collecting and storing!🇨🇦
I think it will look beautiful once you guys have worked your magic ❤ looking forward to watch the progress
Looking forward to seeing your plans come to fruition.
❤ from Oklahoma 🌪️
Perhaps a murphy bed in one of the bedrooms, for space sake?
Do a live vlog and we'll give you all kinds of suggestions! LOL Why will the door to bedroom 2 be closed? Just curious?
More work, for winter 😂
