Christmasey Cadeaux at the Chateau!

- We have received so many Christmas gifts from our lovely viewers that we're still filming the opening of wonderful Christmas presents at the foot of the tree. Today we're spoilt with gorgeous art, stunning porcelain and jaw-dropping fashion. And I make an exciting announcement about the use of the November and December earnings of this channel. Your viewing of these videos is making a huge difference!
In 'Cadeaux at the Chateau', all of the inhabitants of the Chateau de Lalande gather together to open beautiful gifts that people have sent from all over the world. All of the monetisation from these videos will be donated to a different charity each month. CZcams earnings fluctuate wildly each month, as ad revenue changes throughout the year. Here are the charities that we've donated to so far:
July 2020:
British Heart Foundation UK (in memory of my father) €634
August 2020:
Alzheimer's Research UK (in memory of all of the residents of my parents' nursing homes) €350
September 2020:
Prostate Cancer Foundation (in memory of Selmar's father) €1255
October 2020:
Medecins sans Frontieres (chosen by my mother to support vaccinations in Africa) €942 (equivalent to 426 cholera vaccinations)
I used to show the gifts as part of 'The Chateau Diaries' episodes, but you're all so very generous that we have many gifts, and if we spent the episodes opening them, we wouldn't be able to show you other aspects of chateau life! So, for those of you who enjoy watching presents being opened, and as a way to thank those of you who were kind enough to send them, I've made this new channel. Every week we will film your beautiful gifts whilst enjoying afternoon tea or aperitif together.
It is very important to me that you know that we in no way expect anyone to send us gifts. I would like to go further than that and add that, if doing so will put you in any financial difficulty whatsoever, please, please do not send us anything. Knowing that you join us by watching 'The Chateau Diaries' gives us all an enormous boost. But for those of you who have sent these incredibly thoughtful gifts, I hope that seeing us open them gives you a fraction of the joy that you've given us 💖💖💖
If you would like to see more of our life at the chateau, please go to our main 'Chateau Diaries' channel:

We at Villioti Fashion Institute, are just so grateful for this wonderful scholarship that Stephanie has decided to support, it might be for one person, but that one person will be able to change his or her life, but all of there family’s, So in actual fact it’s not just one life it affects its many. Thank you to everyone who has made this possible, we will definitely keep you posted on who the person is when they are chosen, and why we feel this person deserves the support. Plus we will follow their progress throughout their studies, and further.
Thank you Stephanie all Lalanders, and everyone who watches this awesome show. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼❤️🇿🇦🤓🥂😷 Spero Villioti
I love that someone who would never manage to get to a designer school ordinarily, will have a chance to showcase and benefit via their creative talents. Very well done you lovely, lovely people.
"Yeah, it's knocked off a few years"
"....get off the armchair".
😂😂😂😂
So much joy in this video. Philip's little giggles and snorts make my day!! Thank you all!!
I love Philip and his hedgehog, I laugh all the time!
What a wonderful plan to start a scholarship to the fashion school. Often times some of the most talented artists can not afford to train in their chosen field and to know that we all played a part in helping someone move higher in life is a great honour. Yet again the gifts were so thoughtful and the art and fashion chosen to fit each person. It is obvious that you evoke a loving response from us all.
thank you all so much for the company.. missed you all.. see you soon.. and to stephanie thank you so much that you gave us a platform to make friends from all over the world.. xxx
Wonderful choices for the money raised LaLande team!
That tree is magical. I've lived through 60 Christmases and your tree is the most beautiful I've ever seen. It's like an art installation.
So glad you liked the Bibles. I sent them in September, so all these months and I wondered if they ever got there at all! Thank you for letting me participate in your world for the Chapel. May God Bless you and Keep you with your friends and family. - Sheryl P.
Stephanie & Mummy: I'm thinking each bible should be kept in gallon-size zippered plastic bags (large "zip-locks") while stored due to potential of mold growing on paper if any moisture in the chapel.
That was a very thoughtful gift. I think that many people who visit the Chapel in years to come (religious or not) will find solace in those bibles.
📚It was a precious gift📿, esp. in English and French as well as Protestant and Catholic versions. You have multiplied the chances a visitor will be touched by your thoughtfulness. 👍
🕊God bless you!

📖Re: Book Storage💧. As a precaution, it would be fine for them to be kept short term in an 🔓unlocked* zippered plastic bag in pews.
*😣NOTE: A sealed plastic bag will increase humidity & encourage mold growth. If they go zip-loc bag route, they need to affix a Label about the importance of leaving unsealed. For protection of Bible/Hymnal, plz do not 🚫 SEAL bag.
🎉 They would need to add one of those tiny silica gel packets that come with new shoes (& other products) in order to "wick away" any moisture.
🤔Think you can acquire a supply of those online. $5 USD on Amazon for 100 1g packets.
⚒They could DIY a version of the above with coffee filters and non-clumping 😸cat litter sand. The filter is porous enough to keep litter contained while not diminishing it's affinity for
water💦 in any discernible way.
👩🔬One of the "hygroscopic substances" available on the cheap is a mineral called "zeolite" which is the main ingredient in the above😽.
👨🔬The truth is folks have been balancing humidity for ages without elaborate A/C systems. Cigars are another item sensitive to moisture💦 in environment. Hence, the creation of humidors. They use special gauges and chemicals to ➕add moisture as well as ➖remove it.
👩🏫Maybe they shouldn't store them all there in the Chapel long term. Only leave a couple on hand for someone wanting spiritual comfort. Bring out the bulk of books for services.
🔍No expert, but I am a book lover. ⬇️This resource below goes in much better detail on the subject.
👩⚖It would be easy enough to manage if someone @ ⚜LaLande was willing to take ownership of 📗Library (or archival duties).
📆 Also maybe put Book Chores on some kind of bi-monthly or quarterly rota for dusting, pest & mold prevention. Just like a 🌱planting schedule, Martha Stewart would want this function on the 🏰estate house-keeping calendar.
Think that is 🗝Chatelaine Stephanie's territory to spearhead the creation of some sort of 📅master calendar 🗂 as well as suitable training for each assignment. 👩💻While Super Star, Nati, manages the day-to-day scheduling, actual training, & running of B&B related things.

You have an amazing name …even tho you spell it wrong lol. xoxo Cheryl
A scholarship! So fantastic! I'm an educator myself, and someone who has studied the arts for over 15 years, it's such a JOY that Lalande is helping to fund education in this area that so often is neglected in scholarship funding! Many thanks for this! I'm even happier watching the ads now!
It is so wonderful to see the love for all at the chateau and then the love that Stephanie shows to others in donations in what the channel generates. I am from the U.S. and love is what I need to see right now,thank you to all!!!💖💝💖
Generosity proves to be the gift that keeps on giving. So beautiful! Thank you!
I like the idea of local charities, orphanage, shelter homes, etc. They're the ones that really struggle for funding and they do concrete work. Big/well known organisations have many donors and income streams, and frankly spend a lot on meetings/conferences, travel and salary rather than "real" work.
I agree. I worked for a co that processed non profit donations. You'd be surprised where some of that money ends up. I like scholarships too.
Yup. I used to work for non profits, big and small. Yes I like the scholarship idea too. Anything that will go directly to the real needs.
The harlequin dress and Natie is a match made in heaven !!! She looks amazingly gorgeous in this dress. It just complements her entire beauty so much !!! Stephanie, please let her keep it forever!
I agree, if Natie wants to keep it, it should definitely be hers :) But we know she'll she will share if an occasion calls for it. Considering how well it fits her, I'm not sure it should be in the costume closet :D
She's a beauty!!
🎉 Yes, that sparkly Harlequin gown looks absolutely ☄enchanting ☄ on Nati 🎉.
⚡It was most flattering on her voluptuous feminine figure ⏳-- as if custom made✂️. She looked marvelous pairing it with the elegant Mardi Gras mask too⚡. 😉 Would definitely suggest she keep it squirreled away in her own closet for a special costume event. 🦋
Love the fact that this will go to sponsor a scholarship!💛 Also loved all the artwork in today’s cadeaux. Hope all is well with everyone! 💛
I love that so much money is going to amazing charities, thanks to Stephanie and the team.
📺 Another charming episode of 🎁Cadeau @ the ⚜Chateau! So happy you're able to💰contribute toward someone's creative education🎓 as well as other positive charitable endeavors. 🎉Thanks to all those who so thoughtfully contribute for our enjoyment.
😍 Love how everyone in her court kept rotating around LaLande's Queen bee 🐝 on the seating in front of the fireplace🔥 for the duration of this video.
🎉 Well done!
I loved this vlog...Stephanie you manage to make gratefulness so beautiful and entertaining as well.
Stephanie you are such a gracious lovely woman surrounded by lovely unique charming friends. :-) thank you all for sharing XXXXXXX
Oh I love the idea of a LaLande Arts Scholarship!
There are so many wonderful, good people all over the world. Stephanie and friends, your vlogs are my #1 favorite on CZcams. You have made me laugh and feel so much joy.
Wow, Nati was born for that dress and with the addition of the mask, gorgeous! It is interesting how in so many of the videos certain gifts just seem to compliment other gifts or seem to work out perfectly with something. Great idea for the scholarship as well!
That is a beautiful gesture regarding the scholarship to someone in need at the Fashion Institute in South Africa...Love, Love, Love...
STEPHANIE, In New Orleans, Alabama, and other States, the carnival masks are displayed on a wall to exhibit their beauty all year long. I love your channel so much. It is by far the most interesting,
happy, entertaining, informative and inviting CZcams Chateau series online. I don't miss an episode.
Your guests are so fascinating and everyone seems naturally themselves. Your individual gifts meld so well together. Have a fantastic 2021.
How great to support education, culture and the arts. It is your own education and experiences that you keep sharing and that makes your channel special and unique!
Been a rough week here in the states..so looking forward to chatting and cheery people
Thoughts and prayers for you all at this hard time 🙏🏻🙏🏼🙏🏽🙏🏾🙏🏿
My heart is breaking for what you are all going through. Damn politicians, we everyday people suffer for their power greed. Praying 2021 is much better for you all. Your neighbour from the north. 🙋🏼
I too, am in the States and agree.
Love from Melbourne Australia
Yes I've found the last week very upsetting and unsettling. And we thought 2021 would be better.
I love how the people keep changing. Gives everyone a little time on camera.
Stephanie you should name the scholarship in honor of your Father!
Stephanie and Michael, I'm crying listening to how you are dedicating this money towards a worthy South African student. I'm so so proud and thank you. Love from Ballito in South Africa.
I can picture it now. Percy discards his radio in a planter somewhere, so then some unsuspecting person walking by hears from within a fern, "'ello? Can anybody 'ear me? Iz someone there? Iz Percy with you?"
Love to see you all happy opening gifts from generous admirers of La Lalonde ....Selmar giggling in the background is always a treat!!!
Brilliant idea for the scholarship! Nati! Stunning!!!💗💗💗
The blue ball gown has to belong to Natalie, she looked absolutely stunning in it!
Hi all‼️😁 great vlog, luv the presents and it was nice to see Michael Potts for sure‼️ such a gorgeous smile he has😊 thank you‼️
So happy that you are going to support art students to follow their dreams.
I love all your presents ❤️ Naties dress looks so beautiful on her x
wow what a gorgeous stunningly beautiful painting the lady did for you
I LOVE that yellow scarf with pockets. How creative. And Miss Jesterz - haven't heard that name for years and years
Hello lovely lalanders ! The scholarship is a brillant idea! Bravo Stéphanie ! Please take care and stay safe ! Bisous from Alsace 😀😘😘😘
I love this channel! Well done to all of you 👏👏👏. Thank you for your positivity, artistry and laughter 💗💗
OMG! That exquisite dress! And Natty in it; WOW!
People are so generous!
Wow. Nati looks incredible in that 80 dress! Beautiful.
Please consider contributing to a charity for veterans with PTSD. As usual, it was so much fun watching you open your gifts 😊
I felt the portrait captured your essence. Well done.
So happy that we get to enjoy watching you open the thoughtful gift from friends near and far. I so enjoy escaping into a happy world and retreating from the worries of our Country. It is such a blessing to know that we not only receive joy from your channel, but that through our enjoyment, it also helps others in need. I am glad and privileged in some small way to be part of that love and giving🌸🎄🌸
What a wonderful idea for the scholarship! Also, for me to keep in mind...hedgehog, yellow, garden and something else......
Your vlog has been (is) a delight. Thank you so much for sharing. Everyone seems to genuinely appreciative, especially of the edible gifts.🤔 I really do enjoy it when Phillip snorts off camera! You are truly one of the best discoveries out of covid.
I can't believe how immersed I become while watching CC and CD. I just can't walk away.
Love the idea of a student scholarship.
Some beautiful gifts. Nattie looks gorgeous in her dress. Love the plates.
Me too. Hello Selmar, good to see you, can't wait to see the floors you have been working on.😀
A wonderful idea!
Scholarships are a wonderful way to pay back and pay it forward! Thanks for doing so.
I love the scholarship idea! Great choice!
Such a good idea to fund a scholarship. I’m fully supportive of this great initiative from all the lovely La Landers.xx
Nati you look stunning in that dress . Such lovely gifts . I love the roses oil painting . That is a lovely donation to help give a young person a chance .
Nati looks like Ms 🇦🇷 Argentina
She is stunning!!! And beautiful on the inside ..her eyes are so happy 😊😊
@@vrd555 Stunning is the first word that popped into my head! Wow! ...and she is such a sweetheart too!
Well another day you were all spoiled rotten.....Nati that dress was made for you, you look absolutely stunning in it.......love that you are donating that money to the design school in South Africa, that is a wonderful idea.....stay well.......Donna in Toronto
It is heart warming to see how many people from all over the world send you all such lovely gifts! One day I pray my hubby and I could come visit!! X
Natty is truly blooming. So beautiful.
Stephanie !! I love your impressions of your mother 🤣 Your so funny xxx
Nati you stole the throne! You look amazing! Steph you look great in the yellow dress, you are like ray of sunshine on a winters day! I love your personality! I also enjoy all the members of Le Lande!
Tartan patchwork pillow ingenious
Stephanie , since many young people like to watch this program, you have great voice, so I think that you could give a try and read fun books, it would be a wonderful gift to the youngest one.
It's a great idea, but if she does she needs to get permission from the author because of copyright. I think Steph has a great reading voice!
Well done Villioti on setting up that fundraising endeavour for less priviledged students and to you Stephanie for your thoughfulness and creativity🙏Natti looks beautiful in a headband .love that necklace made from the laurel. Wow!!! The masks🥰
That dress is beautiful on Nattie!
Stephanie you are a wonder! Your delight at opening every gift is inspiring :)
The scholarship is a wonderful idea. The arts and creative pursuits enrich everyone’s lives.
That yellow shawl with the pockets, you can put your yellow hot water bottle in it!
The boysenberry started where I am from in California. Mr. Knott berry farm grew them , they became so famous they built a huge theme park Knotts Berry farm Theme Park. Thank you for your show Mary
Beautiful dresses from your Texan friends. 🦋🌼
The dress was made for Natie
Indeed its screams NATIEEEEE 😂
Agree totally :)
Stephanie ,mummy is right about the washing tabs/pods ,a washing machine engineer told me that for a normal wash ,one tab/pod is sufficient.
Nattie looks like she could be Gal Gadot’s sister. Absolutely beautiful in her 80’s gown!
Allison coming through with the Trader Joe’s!!
What a splendid idea. Scholarships are the only way some could ever further their education. I would never have have been able to study Music Performance without scholarships. I applied for every scholarship I could find. Writing many essays, speaking to civic groups, academic challenges, etc. Many were for $100 each. I was able to study at a private conservatory in the US. Thank you for your charity in this way. Bless you and all the lovely people I enjoy watching. I never miss any video from The Chateau.
I have to confess to some discomfort regarding Cadeaux as a regular event but since you started accruing the as revenue for specific charitable donations, all my reservations have vanished. The fact that you have decided on the art scholarship brought tears to my eyes. My daughter studies fine art and has thousands of pounds of debt to deal with. Art is a compulsion for many and this allows it for some lucky person without that millstone. You are amazing! ❤️
Donating all the money was such a selfless act when there are so many necessary renovations.
@@chasethecat3839 I absolutely agree. However, are we surprised? I'm certainly not.
@@pamyh.37 nope!! Which is why she and her channel have the viewers and patreons that she/it has. Her parents truly raised her right
Its so incredibly kind of you to help an artist through a scolarship. Yiu are truely a beautiful person. Luv u Stephanie & all at La Lande
Just WOW!! So many beautiful thoughtful gifts. Funding the scholarship is such a fabulous idea. Well done!
I really love that you are donating to a student scholarship.
Again, the gifts are so lovely and thoughtful. And the tree--I hope we get more views of the tree before it's dismantled.
As mentioned by others, the scolarship is a brilliant idea, especially if we get updates on this person's achievements and progress ❤
As always my time this evening well spent watching the video. Gifts opened, with I learning things as each is opened. X
I do hope you read "Miss Jaster's Garden" on your vlog as the giver suggests :) Much love to ALL of you at La Lande and all of us La Landers fans!
It is amazing to see what beautiful things people send you all❗️
Great supporting an African student!
Love all the happiness and laughter with the thoughtful gifts!
soo glad to see happy people having a grand time. wonderful respite
Nati you look incredible in that dress,and I love your hair like that
Such a lovely vlog .... the scholarship sounds just a wonderful idea for some lucky person .... such lovely lovely gifts wouldn’t know which to choose as a favourite they all so stunning I love to watch this and people’s kindness xx
Great to see the lovely bag made by my close friend Amanda at Beau Belle Creatif (facebook) here in Normandie. Fabulous quality and really suited Stephanie.
What a great idea the Word of God in your chapel beautiful
I just don't know how Stephanie's vlogs can get any better! A fabulous mix of goodies and Michael's hair looking more 'electric' than ever... maybe you wake just up like that or maybe it takes a jar of hair mud and 60 minutes to get 'just right'.... very Elsa Lanchester! The Fashion Design scholarship will be the dream for some lucky student, a brilliant idea. Getting into a course is not easy but the costs incurred for tools of the trade..pattern cutting, art supplies and computers etc, not to mention fabric along with everything needed to produce your creations seems endless.Thank you Stephanie! 💛🦘
What a wonderful idea about the scholarship Stephanie. Your father would be thrilled. Super tonight - just miss the daily viewing. Hope Gerry had a good Christmas in the UK. He has been very much missed. 😊
👨🎨 Scotman needs to send us an update. ⌚Too much time has passed since his last one.
😘Gerry: We're all missing you @ LaLande. Hoping you are well -- and in some good company👥. ❤❤❤
The Bible donation brought tears.
What a great idea. I remember receiving scholarships in college and it was so helpful!
My children had "Miss Jaster's Garden" when they were young. And we borrowed illustrations from it for my first grandson's nursery.
Another great vlog and bravo on the scholarship! Toronto has gone into another lockdown so your vlogs are even more important for my personal happiness.
China Clay company still exist in the Clay areas of Cornwall. They say that you will find a Cornish man in a mine in all the corners of the world usually called a Jack or a Jenny.
Loved the bit of Cornwall
Me too even though I live just across the river in Plymouth, Devon
Trappist Jams were highly valued and recommended to me by an excellent chef years ago. I think they are or were made by Monks! Enjoy!! 😍🍇🍓🫐
My sister is a faithful watcher of your vlog and recommended that I watch....now I'm hooked. I wanted to comment that at 23.06 when you are pointing to the "family" on the toile....that may be the American founding fathers with the Declaration of Independence. I hope the New Year brings much happiness and joy to you, your family and the cast of characters at the chateau.
Phillip go to youtube and type in the cat that adopted the hedgehog babies it really is amazing there were so many of them!
😉Think you just sent me down a YT🐇 rabbit hole. (Uh, I meant a hedgehog/cat🐱 one!) 😢Can't resist unlikely animal adoption stories! 🦋
Nattie's dress is PERFECT for Mardi Gras!
I love a traditional Mexican dress. They are beautiful and so comfortable during the hot summer months. Great gift!
