00:01Welcome to Chateau DIY Win The Dream.
00:04The ultimate renovation showdown.
00:06Whose idea was this?
00:08Come on, mine.
00:09Take me over here.
00:11Over four thrilling weeks, creativity meets competition.
00:14Looks wicked, doesn't it?
00:15Perfect fit, oh my gosh.
00:18As determined duos battle it out to prove.
00:21I'm having an absolute nightmare.
00:23They've got the vision, skill and grit to win the ultimate prize.
00:26I haven't got a clue.
00:27I can cry, I can literally cry.
00:30The keys to this breathtaking French property.
00:34Set on the outskirts of a Normandy nature park,
00:37the property boasts six bedrooms, four bathrooms,
00:42two salons, five additional rooms to renovate,
00:46perfectly pruned gardens, stunning outbuildings,
00:49its very own orchard and even a historic bread oven.
00:53It's a lot to play for and if we lose, I'll be fuming.
00:56Three heats and a grand finale where only the best will rise.
01:01Oh!
01:02All the pairs have to do is show they have the renovation know-how
01:06to impress me and various guest judges from Chateau DIY.
01:10I think this is really creative.
01:13What a transformation.
01:14In weekly challenges designed to push their creativity and skills to the limit.
01:19The clock is ticking!
01:21Win the week and they secure their spot in the grand finale.
01:24The dream is real, the stakes are high.
01:26This is Chateau DIY Win the Dream.
01:40Previously on Win the Dream, and then there were four.
01:44The final renovation challenge began.
01:47I want you to create a principal bedroom for yourselves.
01:51Ooh!
01:53I love that.
01:54With a clash of styles.
01:56I don't want anything that's too garish.
01:59That would not be my vibe.
02:01Goal!
02:03And in the last petite challenge...
02:05Don't do that! Are you joking?
02:07..the chance to stamp their name on the Chateau...
02:10Yeah, I'm not sure about this font.
02:11Just draw it on there quickly, stop wasting time.
02:14..but with only three days remaining...
02:16Every finish has to be perfect.
02:18..which of these pairs...
02:19I can't find that on.
02:21This is so fun.
02:23..will win the dream.
02:30As part of the brief,
02:31the teams must include a customised bed frame.
02:34Bring her up.
02:35OK.
02:37That was all me.
02:38Tash and Zav have decided to make a four-poster bed from scratch.
02:44Perfect.
02:45OK.
02:45So nice to see bits of the bed in the room.
02:47I'm hoping this is going to fly.
02:49Fabulous.
02:49That's all the posts.
02:51Let's put those there.
02:54The bed is the key piece in the whole room.
02:56It brings everything together.
02:57It's the centrepiece.
02:58So, without it, nothing else is going to look right.
03:10OK.
03:10Right, OK.
03:11Let's lift it up.
03:12That looks great.
03:14Careful with the wall.
03:16Time is kind of rolling in us now, so...
03:19..we do need to get things going pretty quickly today.
03:23Yeah.
03:24Done.
03:25Yeah?
03:27Right, so where's this going?
03:28So, they'll be on to the back of here.
03:30You've got a two-metre drop on the curtain.
03:31Yeah.
03:32OK, so that's good.
03:35Happy with that?
03:36Yeah, yeah.
03:41That's already holding really well, actually.
03:42Is it?
03:43Yeah.
03:43Good.
03:44That is unbelievably quick.
03:48Wow!
03:49This guy's good.
03:52Just give him a shatter or something.
03:56We had all the ideas and no idea how to execute it,
03:59and now we actually do know how to execute it
04:01and execute it to a high standard.
04:03Yeah.
04:03So, is it going up like so?
04:05Yeah.
04:10This is becoming a four-poster bed, Natasha.
04:13I know.
04:21Yeah.
04:22Look at that.
04:23Perfect fit.
04:24I'm so happy.
04:25It's coming along really, really nicely.
04:27The vision's coming to life.
04:30Yay!
04:31There.
04:32That looks good.
04:33Good?
04:34Yeah.
04:34She's the yin to my yang.
04:35And do you know what?
04:36We've beaten everything in our path so far.
04:38We're down to the final two.
04:40There's not long left,
04:41and if you can't start dreaming and believing in yourself now,
04:45then when are you going to do it?
04:46Ready?
04:47One, two, three.
04:50Two more struts to go, but...
04:52It's looking good.
04:53That is a bed,
04:54and it's going to look crazy good.
04:58We love the Joshes,
04:59but like I've said,
05:00not enough to give them a chateau.
05:01That's our bedroom up there.
05:03And we're going to be staying in it.
05:07Away from the chateau,
05:08the Joshes have gone out to do a spot of shopping.
05:11We're here to find some fabric for the upholstery work in the room
05:15and some curtains.
05:16Let's go.
05:17Let's do it.
05:21With the headboard, we're going that?
05:22Headboard and bed is that.
05:24And we've got the curtains.
05:26Curtains with this as well, yeah?
05:27It's quite...
05:28It's nice.
05:28It's got a colour to it.
05:29I think this would be good for some Christians.
05:31Just feel it.
05:32I'm thinking this will kind of break up the pink
05:34to create a bit of softness.
05:36We've got some different shades going on.
05:37I think that's going to really work.
05:38Yeah.
05:38It's going to be a lot of money.
05:40Should we find out the price first,
05:41then we can work it out?
05:42Yeah.
05:44Each pair have 700 euros
05:46to spend on their bedroom designs.
05:53Thank you so much.
05:58Bye-bye.
06:00God, it's so heavy.
06:01It's because we bought so much.
06:03We bought the whole shop.
06:04It's a bedroom, so...
06:05Yeah.
06:11Back at the chateau...
06:12That's every bit, yeah?
06:14The first coat of paint is on Tash and Zav's bespoke bed.
06:18Right, that'll do.
06:20Let's pick this up later.
06:22Now it's time to start adding texture to the room.
06:26I think watching the wallpaper go up is always a nice moment
06:29because it does give the room some grandeur.
06:31It just means it all looks a bit more polished and finished,
06:34which would take some anxiety away.
06:38It would be nice to get all this over the line this morning.
06:44It's actually going on really nice here.
06:46Looks good.
06:47Do you like it?
06:48It looks really good.
06:52Keep it off the wall until it's on the right bit of wall, ideally.
06:57There it is.
07:00Final piece of wallpaper.
07:02Hello.
07:03Hello.
07:04Hello.
07:05So, Tash, you finished the wallpapering?
07:07Happy?
07:07I'm very happy.
07:08I'm really pleased with the colour.
07:09I think the green pops perfectly.
07:12The main part of this challenge was a bespoke bed.
07:16Do you feel we've met the brief?
07:17I'd say this is pretty bespoke, yeah.
07:19I think you've smashed the brief.
07:21It's very, very good.
07:22Very good.
07:23Very proud.
07:24It's been a real labour of love, hasn't it?
07:26It has, yeah.
07:26I've been in the workshop for a long time with this.
07:29It looks kind of well put together.
07:31Are you pleased with the colour?
07:32Yeah, it's really lovely.
07:34It's just a nice white chalk paint,
07:36so it obviously sticks nice to the wood,
07:38and then I'm going to gild on top of all the flowers,
07:40so it will be lovely and gold and pretty.
07:42I love how you've now really identified your look, your aesthetic.
07:46You've nailed it down, haven't you?
07:48Yeah.
07:48Lots of detailing, lots of gold gilding,
07:51and actually your skills complement each other beautifully.
07:53Yeah.
07:53It's going well.
07:54Yeah, it will be our dream bed.
07:57It will.
07:57In, hopefully, your dream chateau.
08:00I know.
08:00Fingers crossed, yeah.
08:04The Joshes are back from their shopping trip.
08:07OK, mattress number two.
08:09And they've just had an update regarding their budget.
08:12Budget-wise, we have completely run out of money.
08:15We have no money left, literally no pennies at all.
08:18And they still have lots to finish in their room.
08:21So, we are having to be really creative with what we're going to do.
08:25This room's not going to get done.
08:26So, we've run out of gold paint, and we've also run out of spray paint.
08:30And we still need to kind of do the tables and the mirror, things like that.
08:35Yeah.
08:36So, I'm thinking we might need to rethink our budget and maybe look at taking some of the stuff back
08:41to the shop.
08:42Yeah.
08:42To get a little refund, and then maybe we can try and afford some of them items.
08:46Yeah, that's what we'll do.
08:48OK.
08:48How about the gold ceiling?
08:50I mean, I think the gold ceiling looks good.
08:52It's just a bit patchy in some areas.
08:56I don't know if there's anything we can do about that.
08:57I mean, the gold paint's expensive.
08:59So, yeah, I think it looks good as it is.
09:02When we move in, we'll do another coat.
09:05Financial chat over, they can now make a start on their bespoke bed.
09:09We've repurposed a single mattress.
09:11We bought this foam from a charity shop for our custom-made headboard.
09:17As the foam's quite thick, our first challenge is going to be cutting it in half.
09:28The headboard is going to be quite a feature in the room.
09:31So, any lumps and bumps, you'll probably see it.
09:34So, we're going to try and make that as neat job as we possibly can.
09:38I think it's just stressful, because at this point, we just can't make any mistakes.
09:42Everything has to kind of go to plan.
09:44So, wish me luck.
09:50And it's not just the foam for the headboard the Josh's need to get right.
09:54Up to.
09:57We've literally ordered and bought enough fabric exactly for the headboard.
10:02And because it's so big, the fabric cost us, like, a large percentage of our budget.
10:06So, I literally have, like, centimetres to spare.
10:12If we don't get this right, then the headboard will be ugly.
10:17It won't have any fabric on it.
10:18We are literally doing bougie on a budget.
10:20So, we're trying to make this really plush, really luxurious.
10:23A lot is riding on this pink bed.
10:25Do I trust myself?
10:27Have I measured this right?
10:30All of this is painted.
10:33While Tash is finishing off painting their four-poster bed,
10:37Zav is outside, repurposing their six-euro brocant chairs.
10:43Yeah.
10:44Into bedside tables.
10:45Saw this really unusual idea recently about chopping up chairs to make different things.
10:53So, I'll give it a go.
10:55Very simple design.
10:58Let's take the back off.
11:00There's your tabletop.
11:01I'll pop a piece of ply on here.
11:03Pop those on top as the actual tabletop itself.
11:06So, super simple.
11:07Shouldn't take too long.
11:12And that's the second one.
11:15My tabletops.
11:17Right.
11:18Josh is also getting creative with some leftover wood.
11:21We were going to buy some bedside tables and, like, upcycle them a little bit,
11:25but the budget is currently zero.
11:27We have nothing left.
11:29See, I've seen someone doing something similar to these bedside tables before.
11:33So, I wanted to give them a go and see how easy it was to do them.
11:37I'm going to put a little tabletop on top.
11:39Originally, they don't have that, but I thought I'll just put a little bit of a twist on top of
11:43it.
11:44Being a dancer, you always strive to achieve the perfect thing.
11:48And with the wood, it was all kind of cut into different shapes.
11:51But actually, nothing's perfect in the chateau.
11:54So, yeah.
11:54I just need sanding down and then putting a tabletop on.
11:57And I think it looks good.
12:11Hello.
12:13How's it going?
12:14Good.
12:14Set.
12:15Tabletop's done.
12:16Looks lovely.
12:17Good?
12:17Good.
12:18Yeah?
12:19I can paint that up and it will look really nice.
12:21Yeah.
12:22They're fabulous.
12:24So, we're almost there?
12:25Not really.
12:25We still have quite a lot to do.
12:27Yes, ma'am.
12:38We are back in France where our final two pairs are battling it out in their final renovation
12:44challenge to try and win this quarter of a million pound property. They've been asked
12:50to transform one of the chateau's bedrooms, reflecting their own taste and style. With
12:56only six days to complete the challenge and a budget of only 700 euros, the pressure
13:01is on. And the pairs have only two days left to go. We bought this on like an online
13:08marketplace and we got a bargain, it was only 25 euros. So it's, we love the colour and we
13:15love everything about it but we just don't love the sort of width, it's a bit too deep
13:18for the bedroom because it's going to go next to the bed. So the plan is to cut it in
13:23half
13:24and then attach it to the wall. While the Josh's measure up...
13:31Me and my friend, the sander. Zav is making a start on their chest of drawers.
13:42It's coming off so quickly I was going to take the whole lot off because then the paint will
13:46definitely stick. Should be an easier job than putting the bed up, so fingers crossed.
13:55Upstairs in the chateau...
13:56He's got that after the door.
13:59...the Josh's dresser is cut and ready to be fitted into place.
14:02I just wanted to make sure it's central but we can just do it by the eye so if you
14:06go
14:06back there and just see... Hold that in and watch them fall.
14:11That looks about right. Yeah.
14:13We've chosen to kind of put this panel in around in a square to frame it and then our
14:18idea is we're going to put a big bit of artwork up here.
14:20These are the drawers that we've had to chop in half and then put the back back on.
14:25Yeah. Put it in now. Lovely.
14:36So we've decided to go for green on the top of these lovely chest of drawers and we're
14:41going to be gilding the edges because obviously that's our style these days so we're making
14:45sure it all fits in with our little signature. I think this green is really lovely with the
14:51darker wood so it will look really nice. A little bit of an up cycle.
14:57The idea is to kind of blend this in with our panelling so we want everything that comes
15:02into this room to feel like it's meant to be here. It's not just been plonked in here
15:05so we are making sure each piece of furniture feels like it's ours.
15:10Well this is pretty much done I think.
15:14Over with the Josh's. Mine. Mine. Mine.
15:18Their customised bed is finally finished and ready for the final touches.
15:24Whew. Oh my god.
15:29Whew. Wow.
15:32Yeah.
15:36That's a massive headboard. Yeah.
15:39It is pretty big. It was pretty big.
15:42I think you described it as being that big but when you see it in situ.
15:46Yeah. That is two metres high and quite wide as well.
15:50It's quite chateau sized.
15:52It really is isn't it? Are you pleased with it?
15:54Yeah. Yeah.
15:55That was quite a big project that and so now it's up we feel a bit relieved.
16:00Yeah.
16:01I mean creating that upholstery there is one thing but a concave curve like that,
16:06it's almost impossible what you've done there.
16:08Yeah. I don't know how we achieved it really. It was kind of like in our head
16:11originally this was going to be one piece and then what we decided to do is to create a bit
16:15more depth with the fabric split into six pieces.
16:19So it's been a big project, you know, it was like six individual upholstered pieces which came together to make
16:25a bit of a puzzle.
16:26But upholstering one big piece is often really tricky because the fabric goes a bit saggy if you stretch it
16:31too far.
16:32So I think that's a really clever way of making sure it's nice and taut.
16:35Yeah. We're really happy with how it's turned out.
16:37It's fantastic. Now two singles to make a king?
16:41It's bigger than a double, slightly narrower than a king.
16:45Right.
16:46But we're happy with this because we didn't want a double, you know, we wanted something big.
16:49We've got a double at home, we wanted to upgrade.
16:51So yeah, this is, we're really happy with this.
16:53So presumably using two single mattresses was cheaper as well?
16:57It was definitely cheaper.
16:58We were kind of looking at headboards like this online and they were about like two to three thousand euros
17:03and we've actually managed to make this whole bed for probably a hundred euros, including the fabric, the bases, the
17:09legs, everything that you can see.
17:10So we're really happy with that.
17:12Now that is upside down on a budget.
17:15Yeah.
17:15And what about bedding?
17:16We spent quite a lot on the bedding because bedding is quite important in a bedroom.
17:19Want it to feel really nice.
17:20Yeah.
17:21So we spent like 40 euros on the bedding, which is quite a big chunk of our 700 euro budget,
17:25but we think it's worth it.
17:26I love that in this challenge, 40 euros has become a lot of money.
17:2940 euros in this challenge is a massive amount of money.
17:32It's like the amount you can do for that much.
17:34We've found that you can be so resourceful.
17:36We're using every single inch of fabric, every euro.
17:39So does that mean the budget is looking more healthy?
17:41It's all disappeared.
17:43Right.
17:43So does that mean you're absolutely out of money?
17:46Yeah.
17:48So where else has the money gone?
17:50The money's gone on the walls, the paint, the wood for the panelling, all the fabric for the upholstery.
17:58We've bought this lovely dresser.
18:00We've got a lovely rug.
18:02We've like splashed out on the items that we feel like are going to add, you know, value to the
18:06room.
18:06Every single piece, however small it is, is kind of like being hand chosen because we think it's going to
18:11complement the design and the kind of style of the room.
18:13That's the joy of working on a limited budget.
18:16It encourages you to be innovative, upcycle and look what you've created.
18:20Right, you've got lots to do.
18:22Yeah.
18:22See you soon.
18:27With the French weather being as temperamental as it is back in the UK.
18:31I might as well give it a crack.
18:33Tash is trying to learn a new skill under the cover of the workshop.
18:36I kind of volunteered myself to sew on this challenge because we need curtains at the end of the day.
18:44Oh, this isn't on.
18:47I was going to say, it's definitely not on.
18:48I think sewing is a really good skill to be able to customise your home.
18:57And if I had my own chateau, then I would want to be customising all of my soft furnishings.
19:02So, I've got to practise.
19:06How are you getting on?
19:09Look at that.
19:11Look at that.
19:13It's straight.
19:15A surprise.
19:16Are you proud of me?
19:17Yes.
19:18It's brilliant. Well done.
19:19I've made a curtain.
19:20You've made a curtain.
19:23We are trying to find some bar that we're going to make some artwork with for the walls.
19:29And we wanted to make it ourselves and custom make it because, you know, it is potentially a future bedroom.
19:34And hopefully, it'll look really stunning on the wall.
19:37So, just a way of us kind of putting our stamp on the room even more.
19:41A new bar could look so glamorous.
19:45Bougie.
19:46Number five.
19:47Sorry, lovely artwork.
19:53The pressure is on.
19:54Because we are both artists, and, like, we love art.
20:00Are you happy with that?
20:01Does it look good?
20:02Yeah, it looks great.
20:02so let's just design it a bit I'm happy because all the little details that
20:15we've wanted to get ticked off the list are slowly getting done so yeah very
20:19happy over by the workshop these are lovely aren't they Zav and Tash are also
20:29hand crafting some artwork so I have taken some pieces from the garden as I
20:34always do because I love it and a little bit of this leaf and just turned it into
20:42little frames for our room which I think are very pretty and they tie in all of
20:45the lovely botanical vibes that me and Zav really love and Zav wants to take
20:52their floral designs one step further it's called Philo it is a it's a tree that
20:59we have in Mauritius and Zav is Mauritian I'm Mauritian and our favorite beach in
21:08Mauritius goes up into a woods full of these trees so it would be really cool
21:14if we can squish it enough to actually fit it in the frames because there's nothing
21:18more personalized than that as far as I'm concerned I'm just trying to squish it
21:22enough I'm not sure you're gonna be able to crush it properly I think I have
21:26probably a bit of wiggle room in here let's try one of the bigger ones yeah I
21:33think I can get it in but you really have to make the cushions honey we don't
21:36have time for you to be doing that so can you forget about it please yeah I've
21:39got one I'll use that one as well the pairs are coming to the end of their
21:45fourth day transforming their bedrooms I think we've had a really good day today
21:50we've got through loads on our list trying to keep it as neatly as you can
21:54you need to cut along this edge the main part of the brief is a custom made bed
21:59that's what we really wanted to focus on we really wanted to get that right and I
22:03feel like we've done that it genuinely is starting to feel like our room it's
22:06going well that's good we're feeling confident because what we've done with our
22:10room is we've stood by our own style choices and we have done exactly what
22:16we wanted to do we've just completely immersed ourself in our own creative
22:22vision we've got so much done I think our to-do list is actually quite short
22:29down like the wallpapers exactly our taste the bed is our taste the bedside
22:34tables everything that we've put in there even the chest of drawers now that it's
22:38been painted it's all the sort of things that we love so it feels very much
22:42like it's coming together as our bedroom there's finishing bits to do on the bed
22:46we just need to keep this up until the finish line to make sure everything that
22:50goes in there is perfect
23:01two pairs have made it to the grand finale we are moving fast and are going head to
23:06head in their final renovation challenge to create their very own principal bedroom
23:11that's that one done they've had six days and 700 euros to finish their rooms I
23:16think I was a magpie in a previous life and I'm drawn to all things shiny and now
23:22it's the final day of design at the chateau
23:27it's the final push of the final challenge so it's nervy it's very nervy the butterflies are
23:34not just in the garden these look great got four curtains to dim a lot of curtain it feels like
23:43the
23:43keys are kind of like dangling there in front of us wait there wait there wait there I might see
23:49my shoe off we're 100% fighting for the chateau and we're gonna like race to the finish line
23:57while one Josh carries on making the curtains that was actually easier than I thought the
24:01other Josh is upstairs giving a new lease of life to their two vintage chairs our plan is to take
24:07the
24:07fabric off these chairs and re-upholster them so I'm taking these out but I am going to reuse these
24:12the soft furnishings for us are just as important as like the construction and the design and stuff
24:16like that I mean we've really never done anything like this before so this is throw ourselves in and
24:20see what we can do look two leases of life this chair so I'm glad to restore it once more
24:28this will
24:28be its best lease of life because we did it ah pins everywhere this is all fun and games I
24:41think
24:41what I'm gonna do is a few little staples first I've literally been the cushion queen throughout this
24:50competition I don't know why I always leave cushions to the last day I think it just kind of gives
24:57me a
24:59sense of chill before the chaos of dressing the room and just yeah doing all the final bits oh you
25:06all right oh yeah what are you doing I'm giving one last lease of life for the work benches what
25:12why
25:13what for base of our bed base of the bed yeah all right interesting
25:34I figure this is the best way to hold the mattress up you need two of them now anyway
25:45yeah right to the room all right now lift it all right you need to move it all the way
25:57over to
25:57your side and then lay it down you've got you come all the way over here if you can can
26:02you get
26:02no I can't without touching the bed okay here you go try again you have more space now no it's
26:08still
26:08good stuff during don't darling me I'm not scuffing my bed nice one that end is fine we can just
26:17touch
26:17up and you need to go up over your bus guys let me come outside on that side now now
26:23see if you can
26:23get into that corner there you go oh no I can't I can't no I can't no I can't I
26:28physically can't
26:29okay so how about we do this tab I can't look it's scuffing the bed you're gonna ruin all my
26:34gilding
26:34that I've spent ages doing not do it at this end here we go it could be literally a whole
26:38foot
26:38smaller than this did not need this to be honest I wish he cut it much shorter this is far
26:43too big
26:51all right good
27:00and that's where the mattress goes the final resting place of the workbench is
27:05they're coming back into the chateau
27:18tagged
27:23returning to help me judge the final challenge are experienced renovators Nick and Nicole
27:29and with only an hour to go they want to see how the pairs are getting on keep going we've
27:34got one
27:35more to do so don't stop me and finish when in the chateau would change our life in so many
27:39ways
27:40nothing would be the same after this nearly that nearly because this is the final renovation challenge
27:45it's all become very real now that it's either us or Zav and Tash tell where the pictures go yeah
27:53that's fine we both really want the room to be that beautiful finished product and we just want to show
28:00that we can pull it all together now we need to get all guns blazing where there's absolutely no time
28:05to spare we are going to be busy until Max says to stop
28:10we need to hang the sconces and the frames and the shelf we've got five minutes
28:19I'm looking for some flowers for our bedside tables we've got some lovely vases that one there like that okay
28:32sorry garden
28:46it's tools down time for your final room renovation it's time let's go we did it
28:53smashed it you happy yeah yeah you can now dress and set your rooms your individual style
29:00we'll be up soon to review your principal bedrooms and customized beds
29:09I think we hit the brief completely on the head we've pushed the limits of what we thought we could
29:15achieve with renovation and we've come out the other side with a gorgeous bedroom that I think we can hold
29:21our heads up and say completely represents who we are and feel really proud of it
29:25we are exhausted I've never been so tired in my life but we did it that's the main thing we
29:32don't want to leave
29:32we'd be absolutely devastated to leave yeah all we can do now is wait and hope and dream
29:41at the beginning of the week our final two pairs were asked to show off their individual styles
29:46by turning an upstairs room into their very own principal bedroom complete with a bespoke bed
29:54after six days and only 700 euros to transform the spaces which pair will be worthy winners
30:05making full use of the 700 euro budget Zav and Tash have brought their signature classic style
30:11to bring the outside in the pair turn to nature inspired design with floral wallpaper and bespoke
30:19botanical art oh wow oh wow first impression oh wow I think oh wow I'm impressed yeah
30:28complimenting their handmade half wall panelling they've breathed new life into their vintage finds
30:35including a pair of bespoke bedside tables and for a little more than 100 euros their handmade four
30:43poster bed has become the defining feature of the room and that's come together really well it really
30:49has hasn't it so the customized bed started life as a headboard and a footboard that's standard but
30:56Zav has turned it into a four poster using these lengths of timber and he's routed a detail onto every
31:02single edge yeah looking closely in there you can see it's done a little bit uneven but you know
31:08there's definitely a lot of effort that's gone into that and it does look really good it's the
31:13finishing touches that really elevate this space the sconces either side of the bed actually makes
31:19the panelling work yes it does so I completely agree and it's beautifully light and bright and fresh
31:26but chateauesque chateauesque Zav has made the bedside tables from the bottom of two dining chairs
31:33which is just inspired oh yeah that's really clever what do you think is the overall color scheme for
31:40the feel of the chateau I think it works really well they've tied it all together in a very very
31:45clever
31:46way and also obviously I love how they've gone crazy with the gilding of things a little bit
31:51everywhere again they put it together haven't they so exactly as with the green what do you think to
31:56the general layout if I use the space well personally I would have done the same as them because you
32:01have
32:01the view out you know if it's your forever bedroom that's what you really really want to experience on
32:06a day-to-day basis although it's beautiful it also feels quite practical to me you've got a big work
32:11surface next to your bed for a glass of water or book or your glasses little area here is a
32:16dressing
32:17table plenty of storage throughout it's comfortable it's workable it's it's livable I've also noticed a
32:25little picture frame so actually they made the artwork themselves so there's mint leaves from the garden
32:30that they framed and there's seeds from Mauritius which is where Zav is from they're really personal to
32:36them so neither Zav or Tash could sew when they started this competition but they gave it a shot
32:42they learned and actually Tash has now created all the curtains around the bed and at the window what
32:48do you think the finish of the sewing leaves a bit for the imagination but time constraints they're
32:55great and it looks really elegant and actually Tash has really lent into the gold gilding have you seen
33:01it on the end of the bed look that is gorgeous this is the piece de resistance of the entire
33:07room
33:07this is the wow when you walk in I think it's fair to say Zav and Tash have created their
33:14dream bedroom
33:15this is their actual ambition of how they want their life to look this is personal yeah and you can
33:21see
33:21it reflected in there very much so personality well that is not a bad first room I get the impression
33:28the next room is gonna be very different oh wow also maxing out their 700 euro budget the Joshes
33:41have gone big and bold with their principal bedroom we've said it before but I think we need to say
33:45it
33:46again wow what a transformation how different is this room from the other room spending a quarter
33:54of their budget on fabric the Joshes have upholstered their statement two meter headboard in blush pink
33:59to contrast against the dramatic black walls it's completely different George's night and day and yet so
34:06very Josh and Josh it's opulent it's the word that comes to mind for me oh my goodness it's yeah
34:15the
34:16headboard they've made that from scratch it's a proper statement piece it is a statement piece
34:22it's super elegant it's super suave if you look along the lines slightly it wavers in and out but I
34:28mean
34:29for a first go not bad huh no it's it is just very impressive it was however quite expensive so
34:36the
34:36material for the headboard the curtains these little chairs that was over 150 euros well but worth it
34:44absolutely alongside their bed the Joshes crafted bedside tables from leftover wood and customized a
34:5125 year old dresser to complete the space so I really love the dressing table they've made on the
34:57far wall and I've actually taken a standard desk ripped it in half and then used half against the
35:02wall and they've even trimmed down the drawers to make it fully functional that is clever that is
35:07clever because obviously they didn't have space did they yeah and that really does maximize it does they
35:11have a very good eye so they've done the side tables they made them out of individual bits of
35:172x2 timber and fix them all together everywhere you look there's something else going on and catching
35:23the eye I'm loving the color scheme the soft pinks yeah I was worried about the the darkness of the
35:31the
35:32room with but actually the pink especially kind of around the windows and things really brings the light
35:38back in again doesn't feel dark and dingy which is not something I thought I'd say for a room with
35:43four black walls yeah the art that's actually bark they found on the grounds that they've painted gold
35:50and then mounted in a frame they painted black a lot of creativity going so clever I think they've
35:56struck a really nice balance of classical and contemporary these chairs when they arrived had a hideous dark
36:03orange fabric so they've even reupholstered them very nicely done with the beading and stuff around it as
36:09well yeah exactly attention to detail that's their thing yeah well this is not going to be an easy decision
36:16to make is it no no no both
36:20couples have worked very hard we were hoping it was going to be easy but no
36:25we're gonna have a chat I think we need to I'm really sad that it's over it just feels very
36:33surreal
36:34we've been in this world and in this bubble in this beautiful house for so long and we love it
36:41and we
36:41don't want it to end we've worked really hard I think we can say that we definitely did enough we've
36:46fallen in love with the chateau and it's like we feel like we've got such a vision for what it
36:49could be
36:50but it's neck and neck at this point yeah the competition is tight two pairs of aspiring chateau
37:03owners have battled it out in their final renovation challenge creating their very own stylish bedrooms
37:10they've had six days and 700 euros to complete their designs but there can only be one winner it's now
37:17up
37:18to Nick Nicole and I to decide so Zav and Tasha's room what did you think beautiful that very first
37:24impression very warm and cozy and inviting it was very impressive mmm so that four poster bed was
37:29really adventurous and there was lots of skill displayed was it perfect no but I think a really
37:38good effort I think it's fair to say Zav's carpentry skills have gone through the roof in an early
37:44challenge Zav made a bar which was a bit rough around the edges so to see that evolve into making
37:49a four poster bed from scratch with all that beautiful detailing it's really admirable that
37:54evolution of skill is really impressive now Tash is a self-confessed magpie we've noticed she's gilded
38:01everything but I think it's really nicely done it works I think the other thing that worked really
38:05well was the wallpaper which was really nicely chosen mmm and what about the Mauritian seeds did you like them
38:11that's a very nice way to bring a little bit of home into your potentially new home I would
38:18personally prefer the bed to be on the other side of the room so that that would be the first
38:22thing
38:22that you see when you walk in through the door because that to me is the wild factor I think
38:27I
38:27agree on the first impression but actually as a practical bedroom when I want to wake up in the
38:31morning and look out over this view I think I'd have had it exactly the way they did I disagree
38:37but I can see your point and the window would get lost a little bit and speaking of big wow
38:43factor
38:43when you walk in the room Josh and Josh's room yes I definitely have yeah the wow that was you
38:49know
38:49you just open a door and you just go oh my goodness this is stunning what did you think to
38:56painting all
38:57the walls black was it risky very that was a huge gamble right because I thought it would just make
39:03the room so entirely dark but with the really soft pink and all the small details which brought the
39:09light in it was beautifully done actually looked quite inviting in the end it did now that giant
39:15headboard did they bite off more than they could chew I think that was a big gamble for them yeah
39:19when
39:20you walked in the room it works when you walked around to look at the bed from the window I
39:25felt that it
39:26took over I mean nothing for me obviously on closer looking at the skill set the cutting of the foam
39:31and things a little bit to be desired but again first attempt at making a two meter tall headboard
39:37that's a fantastic effort absolutely really good the dresser and I thought was an incredible idea I love
39:44the artwork that they produced with the wood gold gilding all of that thing it's an incredibly striking
39:51room but some of the more practical details such as the side tables for instance they hosted that
39:58beautiful vase but where do I put my glass of water at night it was more of a sculpture than
40:03a side table
40:04exactly exactly but then I we're nitpicking now aren't we now the gold ceiling they did run out of paint
40:12but do you think they got away with it I think the gold ceiling reflects the light and it creates
40:15a
40:16little bit more kind of a warmth in the room but I think to your point that lack of paint
40:20that finish
40:22could have been better two beautiful rooms loads of skills shown this is super tough it is very very
40:29difficult yeah and you know week on week they've come on again it's impressive to see I think we know
40:36what we've got to do with such impressive transformations have we seen enough to award a winner
40:58well done everybody I was blown away by what you achieved in such a short time on a limited budget
41:05which is a true reflection of real chateau life your personalities shone through in your designs
41:12plus it was so impressive to see all the techniques used in both rooms and you all really brought your
41:18a-game Sam Tash tell me about your design style well we really love classic grand chateau style so we
41:27love the sweeping four-poster bed we love the elaborate sort of drapage and we love having you know a
41:32bit of
41:32floral wallpaper bringing the garden into the room so that's why I made those lovely frames and you love
41:38a bit of routing don't you I like routing I like routing I like sanding I like playing around in
41:45the
41:45workshop so we went with a four-poster bed for that reason gave me lots to do yeah Josh and
41:53Josh tell me
41:53more about the inspiration of your bedroom so we really wanted to bring a modern take on what we could
41:59bring to the chateau and we wanted to go really like bold and vibrant with the dark colors with the
42:05lovely pinks and we wanted to kind of bring in some of the classic French furniture to kind of honor
42:10where we are in France but yeah we wanted to bring our own personalities into the room and that sense
42:16of
42:16like bougie elegant dramatic so yeah we really hope you like it it's amazing to have witnessed the
42:23evolution of all of you throughout this competition and I'm really proud of you unfortunately only one
