    You’re so normal, when you kept checking which side to paint, that is something I would do 😂 I love it that you show these moments as it’s keeping it real ❤

    I laughed as Amy turned the water heater cover around and round, having done so myself way too many times. Love watching you all work together.

    The big farm sink with the drying board is really quite handy! I’m rather envious about that!

    Another fantastic video....thank you Amy!! The kitchen is looking so good and love the sink with the sideboard. So nice that it came from Mark's family home too!! Little Juliette and Clement are getting so big and are such little helpers. Thank you Amy and Mark for brining so much joy!! 💗

    You're getting there! Not long now and you can move in and be quite settled before Christmas. 🎄 Definitely the best idea to do the cutting outside. It's always an especially heart-warming moment when we see Clément and Juliette too.

    If you want to keep spiders out, put peppermint tea bags around the room, especially where they might be coming in. Or keep a spray bottle with a couple drops of peppermint essential oil in water to spray as needed. Spiders don't like peppermint.

    • @amirasmith5133
      @amirasmith5133 Před 9 měsíci

      Wow, top tip! I've been using clove oil in a spray bottle but it stains painted surfaces. I'm going to try peppermint oil 🤩

    The beauty of the stone walls and the wood tones shows so well against the light walls and ceiling! This will be a very warm and welcoming space for your family and eventually your guests.

    You can use peppermint oil to keep spiders away. If you google it you can see how to make the mixture with water. I also do not like spiders! The Cottage is looking great! Your children are the cutest!

    Love seeing the progress made. Not a fan of spiders either. Peppermint oil helps to keep them and mice away. So nice to have family around to help ❤❤❤❤❤

  • @janeharris6925

    So glad to see you back. Sprinkling diatomaceous clay at window and door opens will keep spiders and bugs ( ants, beetles) from coming in from outside and it is safe for kids and dogs. Also helps with slugs and creepiecrawlies like potato bugs in the garden.

    • @christikapa3856

    It’s looking so good. I was laughing while you were turning the board around and around!! The children are growing up so fast and becoming little helpers. You react to spiders the way I react to birds and feathers. Love you and your videos!! Many hugs. xx

  • @evakinney3152
    @evakinney3152 Před 9 měsíci +4

    Looking lovely! My apologies for being presumptuous but you might want to add tile or some other water proof substance under the faucet. Water will damage the particle board you added under the faucet quickly. That area always collects water, especially with children. Good luck! You will be moving in soon😊

    I used to hate spiders. Yuck. But then I had a roommate who was petrified of them, and I was able to get rid of them to help her fear. But my older sister once pointed out to me looking at a large flying insect. "It's body is big, but it's head is very small, it's too dumb to get you. So don't be afraid. Tiny head tiny brain." That was wisdom😊.

    Is that to be a utility sink with the washer and dryer next to it?

    • @Chroniclesofrosieres
      @Chroniclesofrosieres  Před 8 měsíci

      Sort of - it will be our kitchen sink temporarily until this whole room becomes a professional kitchen in future. There will be a washer and dishwasher beside it.

  • @manita2653
    @manita2653 Před 9 měsíci

    I hope your little ones don’t mimic you and their nanny, when older and become terrified of daddy longlegs…. Etc
    When my sons were the age of your children and most of my life I was freighted of all sorts of creatures… and also Thunderstorms. I saw how they were watching their mummy and I realized I had to show them that although I didn’t like them … these creatures etc actually helped us … we began to announce that a spider was visiting etc ., in a short while not only did I stopped behaving like a scaredy cat but together we learn to move around them without fear.
    Having that fear is dreadful and I am sorry but you might just try seeing things a little different if not for you … for Clement and Juliette. Much love and peace🙏👏👏🩵🌟🧡

    • @Chroniclesofrosieres
      @Chroniclesofrosieres  Před 9 měsíci +1

      I am very careful not to show fear of anything around the children, even if I’m terrified. You’ll notice they’re not in the room when we talk about the spiders. Margot (our au pair) has the freedom to express what she likes - we don’t control her and it’s good for the kids to be exposed to different people with different behaviour. She’s careful to help Clement avoid fears anyway though.

    • @manita2653
      @manita2653 Před 8 měsíci

      Thank you for kindly reassuring someone who might be overstepping. I apologize if this is what I sounded like.
      How I could’ve thought otherwise is beyond me, having been quietly watching your vlogs since finding you shortly before Juliette was born. Again, I am sorry.

    • @Chroniclesofrosieres
      @Chroniclesofrosieres  Před 8 měsíci

      Wow you've been watching us for two years! Amazing! Don't worry we'll never be offended by people who genuinely care about our kids!
