- Hello my friends,
I am back home in Canada, I have lots of upcoming videos about the new house in France and our journey with all the ups and downs.
Todays video is a quick look at the inside of the main house and all the wonderful things left behind by the family who lived there previously. I also have a little look at the Antique Brocantes we visited.
Hope you enjoy episode I of the French Country Dispatch!. - Zábava
I imagine whoever left their things would be Happy you were the one who found it
I hope so ❤️
Better than an antique shop! Lovely treasures.
We agree! 👍
Lynsey, your husband did an incredible job with the outside and only in 3 days! Bravo 🎉🎉🎉
You and your Family are living our French dream, to have a property in France , takes my breath away ❤️🇫🇷❤️.
You have your own French Brocante with all the treasures the previous owners and renters left, I am so happy for you! Take care of yourself and rest up!
Thank you so much!! We really didn’t want to leave 😞
Be still my heart….the green tufted sofa is simply DIVINE❤️
And so comfortable ❤️
A collector's dream come true! Such treasures. Hope you are feeling better. Anxious to see the upstairs. TFS.
It’s 👍
The kindred spirit who collected all of these treasures must be dancing with joy in brocante heaven. She was just waiting for the right person/family to come along. Such a huge blessing to have this property with all of its treasures and memories for you to love all over again. I cannot count how many times i gasped at your bounty. Can i just say that green chesterfield sofa looks like it’s hardly been used! I’m so happy for you, and Thankyou for sharing your journey.
It’s not just the chesterfield the white couches are like new and upstairs we found 2 new beds and mattress. Very unexpected 😊
I don't even know what to say. How sad it was all left. How fabulous for you, and you will love and treasure them. Thank you so much for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it, it’s given us a great start but still so sad 😞
The 10 euro cabinet is a cabinet for a chamber pot. You saw the ring on the one left at the house when you opened the door. So happy fo you and your family!!!!
Oh that’s brilliant thanks for the info ……. So of the the bedroom it will go 🤔
I cannot believe they left you with such gems. It’s right up your alley. 👏👍🤗❤️ back in Canada 🇨🇦 already. I guess you must plan all repairs in France and take some time to gather your thoughts . Welcome home 🏡
Can't wait! I will regale everyone next time with the story and our plans. 👍
That dollhouse is amazing! So many treasures.
Right?! A complete house full 😊
What a dream come true to sit and go through treasures that were left behind…sad to see the neglect, I can only imagine why the family left these things behind.. you are so right, there are fewer and fewer people who want these old things and let them go. I would be in heaven to go through this house and make it a cozy haven! Have fun and don’t get hurt!
Yes! Most people want new and shiny but fortunately that leaves lots for those who appreciate the craftsmanship and quality pieces🥰
I’m so happy you shared the treasures! More please.
🤗 on its way
What delightful treasures have been left behind for you!
Absolutely we are very pleased 😃
Those of us who love antiques dream of buying a house and discovering treasures left behind in an attic or basement. You bought a house full. Congratulations🎉
Yes it’s a bit of a dream come true 👍
I would be thrilled to have the items that the previous owners considered useless. I just don’t understand people. I dig through thrift stores looking for lovely items that I want to take home. I so happy and a little envious that you appreciate these treasures and will use them in your home.
I can’t imagine abandoned my parents treasures like that.I would have kept it all as their memories.
So glad you were the right person to had found it.Those are tresures❤❤
You and me both! It made me really sad, it was like they just walked away 😔
What a dream come true! ❤ I’d love to find a house full of treasures like that. It’s not likely to happen, but I am very happy for you!! These precious items need to be cherished and loved!
And saved !!!! The things you by now are sadly junk. 😢
Absolutely, I’m glad to have them all 😘
Yes you are the perfect person to look after and treasure all these memories. Looking forward to seeing what you do with that amazing home.
Oh thank you! ❤️
Lovely discoveries in your new home. While I agree it is sad that there was no interest by the family who sold the home to you, I think things happen for a reason and you and your husband are definitely the right caretakers for all these finds. Cannot wait to see them all with pride of place as you redo and decorate each room. Thank you for sharing- definitely want to see the rest of the home and your discoveries.
It will be lots of work but we have great plans 😍
Lynsey, I am so happy for you and your husband. The treasures which are in your house are wonderful, its like being a child in a candy shop. I collect antiques and saw so many that you have that I would treasure. Its always amazing how the younger generation does not covet antiques as we do, but prefer mimalism or Ikea like furniture. People are basically giving antiques away here in Ontario. I will live vicariously through you on your journey when you are living in France. Thank you for the vlog.
I couldn’t agree with you more, thank goodness for old souls who still cherish the past. They don’t make things like they used too 👍😍
What lovely finds in your new home! Hope you are feeling better❤️
Thank you!! 😊I was out of commission for a few days but I am on the mend ❤️🩹
How wonderful to find such treasures in your French house. I can see you using almost all of it in your house as it becomes your home. Looking forward to that transformation.🍁
We have been very lucky. So many lovely things 👍🤗
Hi Lynsey. Omg how brilliant all this stuff left and you will treasure it and be the next custodian. I'm delighted for you and your hubby. This is a great adventure, love the marble top side tables one in the house one you bought for €10, bargain. I dont understand abando ned properties but as you say you are grateful. Have a good week and get some rest.
Thank you so much!😘
I'm so glad the previous owner left you all those cute things. Its like they were meant for you. 🥰Your hubby worked really hard to remove the greenery and did a good job. The outside of the 🏠 reminds me of those watercolor 🖌️🎨 French paintings I love. 😊 Can't wait for more! Hope your leg is feeling better!
We are going to have lots of work ahead of us but i am so grateful for everything that was left for us. 🏠💖🇫🇷
The finds are just fabulous you have saved a bundle and can’t wait till next week to see more treasures left behind ❤❤❤❤
It’s certainly given us a head start 😊
Wow!! Can't wait to see what you do with all the treasure 🎉. Amazing. I would be over the 🌕.
Absolutely everyone welcome 🤗
Lynsey, it is so special that you will keep most items & incorporate them in your house. Just the items left behind would be a big selling point, but everything is your taste makes it that much more special. I agree you were meant to have this house. The owners are smiling down!!😇 The sketch book is awesome. Love antique ephemera. I would be wanting to open every box & look through every nook & cranny immediately. 😂 Hope you are feeling better. Can't wait to follow you & your family on this wonderful journey!🩷🩷🩷
We certainly had lots to look at this visit, next time we get down to the nitty gritty 🤗
One man’s junk is another man’s treasure! I think you got some amazing treasures! Love the transfer-ware.
Yes! Wait till you see the upstairs 👍
How exciting! Are you pinching yourself to make sure you’re not dreaming? I would be. I can hardly wait until the next video, and to see how you’re going to decorate your new home and use all of those lovely treasures!
It’s going to be lots of fun! Hard work but so excited 😆
I can just imagine you sitting at the table, looking through all the treasures, with great squeals of joy filling the room. I’m so happy for you. Again, thank you for sharing your journey ❤
Lol it was like my birthday and Christmas 😊
It is so fun to watch you discover the house. I can't wait for next video!!
Thanks so much ❤️
It doesn’t look much like much. That with your talent and your husband, I know that it will be transformed into a lovely home.
Thank you so much!
I found you searching for Victorian Halloween decor. Now I feel like I've found a kindred spirit! I plan on retiring to France and Emmaus is my holy mecca!! That 'trash' is absolutely my treasure!
Wonderful! Hello kindred spirit 😁🎃❤️
and Mrs T WOW when you said the treasures they certaintly were. Those two brown platters with the quail patten, I have as my everyday wear an entire service in the blue quail and love them. Some of mine are masons and some are the furnells. You are so luckly so much great stuff is left for you i would be in element too
I had seen the blue quail before it’s beautiful ! But not the brown ❤️ I love it
Oh no! How did you hurt your leg? I hope it's not too bad. The little side tables are nice. There's even a place for your chamber pot!😁 You're so lucky to have all of the great things that were left in the house. I'm really looking forward to seeing things come together in France. I hope you're leg heals soon.Have great week.😊
Thanks, I’m on the mend and really appreciate every item left behind. 👍
You have your own Brocante.. just fabulous treasures .
Absolutely 👍 ❤️
I love the couch velvet and tufted so gorgeous !!!! And the rug under it ! that might come easily clean , i hope so !
I hope so too! It’s a lovely big rug 😊
What a treasure trove!
It’s amazing 🤩
The royal Albert with the black edge with flowers on I have.xxx🐝🐝🐝
❤️👍
Although I understand what you were saying, it is quite sad. Kind of breaks my heart. But, you will appreciate the lovely things left.❤😊
So sad I felt exactly the same. But everything is in good hand now 👍
Awesome place
It really is!
❤❤❤
Wow … looks like a whole lot of work to me … … but your just the girl to do it 😂!! The worst thing about it is your not gonna need to do a lot of shopping !!❤😂
Tell me about it how will I manage 😁
Always enjoy your posts😊
I appreciate that! 😄
It looks like the perfect place for you.
We are very lucky ❤️😊
That would be an absolute blast to go through. Do you think in your future videos you could pull back on the camera and not zoom in so much? It would be fantastic to see the rooms better. Also, when you pan, pan slowly. Many people get motion sickness when you move around too fast. I don’t, but I’ve read comments on other videos where people get sick and it makes it harder to watch. You have a lovely home that needs to be appreciated. I can’t believe they left so many pretty things, especially the blue and white china pieces! It will be fun to see how you display them.
Thanks so much. I will have to watch my video as I make them. I don’t realize till I’m editing and by then it’s too late. Plus this time I was a bit hobbled 😖 I will do better 😊
Hope your legs better.The treasures are with the right person.xxxxx🐝🐝🐝🐝
I’m on the mend and very happy with our discoveries 😍
I love all of that stuff as well. Will you be moving there soon?
We are hoping to start work maybe later this year or early next. Then we will play it by ear 😊
Be honest, how much were you hoping to open a secret closet and find shelves upon shelves of Spode ? 😺
Oh god could you imagine! Yes please 🙏 I did find some great things.
@@lynseysrecycledbliss1111 ..you found some gorgeous things ! And you and I both share that Spode dream. 😆
Your Furnables are expensive I think, at least in the US> I have a few pieces & would love more!
I have only ever seen a few, they are beautiful 🤩
Keep up the good work, we're all excited with you two for the big French challenge!@@lynseysrecycledbliss1111
What about your current home
We are renting at the moment and have a 5 year plan. 😊
Not only did you purchase a property, but you also bought a brochant. Can I exhale now?
Honestly we couldn’t believe our luck 😍
