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:

I so enjoy watching the Chateau Family and thought it could not get any better until...... Lancelot. He is adorable.
Merry Merry Christmas 🎄 Stephanie and all! I look forward to your dailies as you really motivate me to partake in Christmas festivities. Love the burrito blankets. My kids want one. Your aunt is so charming. Love you all. Thank you for opening your home and life. Peace and love.
Hi Lalanders. Merry Christmas! 🎄❄️☃️🎄
Why is this the last one?
Hi Merry Christmas beautiful people 🌈💖🎄🎁🦘🇦🇺🌏💋🤗🌅
This cheers me up to watch. It is such a risk in sending gifts to people. You were so gracious, Stephanie. Some one in Florida asked me to make penguin ponchos, and I sent them penguin ponchos. They sent a donation. I teach, and do not want a business sewing. Yellow is your signature color. Royal blue is mine.
I absolutely loved this special Caddeau. Such amazingly wonderful gifts. Lancelot is one very smart little dog. He has stolen all of our hearts.❤
The saddest part of this ending is the Stephanie lessons in gracious gift receiving. The best lesson we could all learn from.
Michael T what a kind and amazingly giving person you are. Merry Christmas.
I enjoyed the cadeaux so much. Seeing Stephanie's joy with every present was priceless. But I'm also sad that we won't be able to see any cadeaux anymore. I got so many gift ideas and book recommendations. Maybe there might be a glimmer of hope that you will start doing it in the future.
Your auntie is so lovely.
That was a lovely start to Boxing Day here in Australia - I hope everyone is having a wonderful Christmas wherever and however they choose to celebrate - best wishes to all this community and may 2024 bring some much needed peace to the world. 🇦🇺💕💐
Congratulations on reaching the chapel goal! How exciting ⛪️love those Christmas tree classes.
The funniest thing ever is watching Cadoux at double speed.❤
It’s amazing that the No I don’t want a dog person, has become such a Dog Lover. Lancelot has a way of making you love Him. He is absolutely adorable.😂❤
You were exactly what I needed on Boxing Day in Australia - my 90 year old Mum passed away one week ago - as you can imagine I'm needing to just get through this period until we can hold her funeral - it's lovely to see the close relationship you have with your family.
The rain deers that were broken could be taken to a specialist to repair them as they are so gorgeous & would be well worth the cost.
Lancelot will soon know the sound of that lid when you open it ❤
Was unable to be with family this Christmas, but feeling so happy watching this !!! Thank You !!! Merry Christmas !!!
When Stephanie was startled with the view through the 3d glasses, her reaction really captured her mother 😅😂
