Guest House Makeover

This is my first attempt to create a little video. SO, it obviously doesn't compare to the quality of the FifiTV film clip, which was produced by a highly professional crew, including Bruce Hsaio, director of photography, and Linda Iaderosa, producer. 

Mine is a FAR CRY from theirs but I hope I will get better with each new one I intend to make. I love slideshows but videos really take you "there." 

When you have a moment I would greatly appreciate your feedback regarding the guest house. Hope you enjoy this little tour in spite of the amateur aspect of the video itself.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!

I will invite myself to stay in your guest house someday LOL! I think it is absolutely beautiful and well designed. LOVE the little shutters and chandeliers. The entire house looks so romantic and cozy! Can't wait to see more! Have fun with it!

Sweet video, very enjoyable. Such a lovely guesthouse, with an ethereal quality. A very peaceful refuge. I love the filtered light coming in through the windows. The amazing textural quality of the room and decor, along with the simple yet contemplative color scheme, provide a feast for the eyes. Your "hand hewn" floor adds a beautiful foundation for your rejuvenated treasures. Thank you for sharing ~ you should take reservations! ~ Angela

Fifi, Your video was just fine- We get to see all of the hard work that you have put into this lovely guest house! It looks so warm, cozy, and inviting! I like that you re-purposed everything that you used here. A bit more tweaking and it will be ready for friends. Oh- enjoy a nice long soak in that tub to christen it! *grin*
Thanks for showing us your masterpiece!

Your guest house is looking very beautiful, Fifi! I love the serenity and the crisp clean look of the white used in the space. It gives you the "Ahh" feel when you view it!

[Mandi Pike]

The guest house is so quaint! I love everything about it, and especially that you had it all, and did so much of it yourself. You are an inspiration! I quite enjoyed hearing your voice, now I'll hear it when I'm reading an article or blog entry you have written.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful work with us!

What a fabulous job you did with your guest house. I think you are a budding filmmaker as well. Congratulation on a wonderful new house after alot of very hard work!

[jeanette]

Let me put it this way. I could stay there and feel like I'm in my element. Very beautiful. Loooove the bookcase.

oh, i love it all so, so much! i adore the little shutters over the bed that open to curtains and the french doors to the wonderful bath and the finial used as a wall pocket.... everything just oozes charm and your attention to detail shows how much you love your guests. those floors are amazing! i love the soothing palette of whites and greys...i can't wait to watch the video again to see more wonderfulness and to hear your lovely accent!

[Tracie~My Petite Maison]

Oh Fifi,
It is beautiful. Each detail I was oohing and aahing at (and Zeke's wondering why ;)

All your hard work definitely shows and to think I thought Cinderella's castle was complete. You never fail to amaze and inspire me to no end.

Bonjour FiFi,
Your guest house is lovely. It has soft and relaxed look. I love the neutral palette. I especially love the shutters with Bon Nuit.
I was pleasantly surprised to hear your voice. So soft, most of the French people I know have much harsher voices, and you've lost a lot of your French accent, I only notice it with certain words. I suppose when you go back to France that it comes right back.
Thanks for sharing your video. I think it was great for a first venture, very professional. It may be a new talent you didn't know you possessed.
Merci et A Bientot,
Sandy

Every little spot is you.
I think your video is excellent! Clear..clear.. not too fast not too slow..and your voice makes it even more dear!
