Charlotte Reiss grew up in Marlborough, Wilshire in England before her career led her to London, NYC, LA (where she ran a successful modeling agency) and now Charleston, SC. She recently built a home in Charleston where she resides with her daughters and husband Sky Reiss.

Sky is in the construction business, and a few years back, he and Charlotte felt a surge of inspiration upon viewing an episode of HGTV’s House Hunters International.

The dream of buying their own farmhouse in France to make sweet-as-macarons memories with family not only became a reality near Bordeaux, but thanks to Instagram, it very naturally led to a new venture for Charlotte: VIVI ET MARGOT, an online shop for French farmhouse finds!

It Started With a Reality Show

Can you tell us what inspired you to shop for real estate in France?

“We were watching HGTV’s House Hunters International and both looked at each other and decided we want to do that! So we started our search online.”

Summers in France

I know Kathryn Ireland’s gorgeous book Summers in France also made an impression on you since like Ireland, you are also British and lived in LA.

“Her beautiful book inspired me greatly! I admired her down to earth approach to the renovation of an old farmhouse in rural France while living in America and raising her children. We’re on a similar journey, and I have come to realize it takes time and much patience to create a home we will love spending summers in for years to come.”

(Find Kathryn Ireland’s book RIGHT HERE.)

Thinking Beyond Provence

Your home is located in Deux-Sèvres. So many of us Americans instantly think of the South of France and Provence as dreamy locations for a vacation home, getaway, or dream home. How did you narrow your search?

“The South was out of the question for us financially and rather than seek a particular region, we looked mainly at houses with ‘good bones.’ We looked all over France for properties within our price range, which was under 100,000€.

French Farmhouse Kitchen Renovation

Your French farmhouse kitchen is so charming! Did it require a lot of renovation?

“The kitchen was a mess! Linoleum floors and cabinets! Also, the main stairs were initially located within the kitchen. My husband moved the stairs to the living room which opened up the kitchen.”

I love that you are real life renovators like us! I understand your husband is a talented figure in construction and house flipping…was your beautiful kitchen a DIY project?

“We worked with Neptune kitchens (a UK company with branches in France) to create my dream kitchen. Apart from a new range (saving up for one!) it’s complete now.”

*update: look at the new Ilve range and re-painted cabinets (Farrow & Ball Smoke Green)!!!

Charlotte’s French kitchen was updated with a new paint color and luxurious range!

A Favorite Room in the Farmhouse

It’s so lovely, Charlotte, and I can’t seem to get enough of your lovely photography of the space. Is it your favorite room in the farmhouse?

“It’s one of my favorite rooms but my absolute favorite is our master bedroom. We converted the entire top floor attic to create an open concept bedroom, bathroom and dressing area. There are no walls dividing up the space except for the loo.

The claw foot tub is at the end of the bed, in effect, with a window overlooking the fields. It’s such a roomy open space with high ceilings and exposed beams. It’s my favorite spot for sure!”

So very functional as well as French-y lovely!

Where is Your Farmhouse Located?

Considering that you bought your dreamy getaway sight unseen…are you enjoying the location now that you have spend vacations here?

“Yes! We are two hours from Bordeaux and 80 minutes from Ile de Re, my favorite place to visit.”

Now I want to discover Ile de Re! Where would we stay if we want to explore this Western France gem?

Hotel Toiras is absolutely my number one recommendation…it is truly spectacular. We fly into Paris and either drive five hours south or take a two and a half hour train ride to Poitiers.”

Sources for Decorating the Farmhouse

Vivi et Margot is stocked with such a charming mix of vintage decor finds from your travels in France and high quality wares for a French farmhouse inspired home. Did you furnish and decorate your home in France with local finds?

“Many items in the home were purchased from France or UK, but I actually incorporated a lot of items from Pottery Barn and Rejuvenation as well as paint from Farrow & Ball.”

Design Inspiration: Interior Paint Colors

Paint colors for interiors throughout the French farmhouse: FARROW & BALL.

Trim, Doors & Beams: FARROW & BALL French Gray

Farrow & Ball French Grey paint color is a greenish gray. #farrowandballfrenchgray #frenchgray #paintcolors

FARROW & BALL French Gray. A soothing green grey. French Gray is really much more green than grey, but characterfully flits between the two depending on the light and time of day. Taking inspiration from French design and wallpapers used in the 19th century, it creates the most relaxed of rooms. This soothing hue is perfect for exterior woodwork and a particular favourite for front doors in matte Exterior Eggshell, or garden furniture where it sits seamlessly amongst the greenery.

Interior walls: FARROW & BALL Strong White 2001

Farrow & Ball Strong White is a cool greyed white. . #farrowandballstrongwhite #strongwhite #paintcolors

FARROW & BALL Strong White 2001. A grey based white, this cool white is both strong by name and strong by nature. The subtle urban feel of its light grey undertones add a contemporary twist to period homes, while staying in keeping with modern properties. Pair with Skimming Stone, Elephant’s Breath and All White in any combination for an effortlessly cohesive scheme.

Ceilings: FARROW & BALL All White. No. 2005

All White by Farrow and Ball is a totally pure white with minimal undertones. #whitepaint #farrowandballallwhite #allwhite #paintcolors

FARROW & BALL All White. No. 2005. A totally pure white All White is exactly what it says! Unusually, it contains no other pigment except for white, creating the softest most sympathetic colour without the colder blue undertones of a brilliant white. One of our Contemporary Neutrals, All White pairs seamlessly with Skimming Stone and Strong White for a warm scheme with a slight edge. For a clean and almost graphic finish, contrast with fresh, strong tones like Pitch Black and St Giles Blue.

Girls’ Bathroom: FARROW & BALL Middleton Pink No. 245

Farrow & Ball's Middleton Pink No. 245 is delicate and pretty. #farrowandballpink #farrowandballmiddletonpink #middletonpink #paintcolors

FARROW & BALL Middleton Pink No. 245. A delicate pink. Our prettiest and most delicate pink was named after the discerning colourist, Catherine Middleton. This light pastel tone is fresh and uncomplicated, especially when contrasted with All White for a gently playful feel. Try pairing our Middleton Pink with Great White for a slightly cleaner urban finish.

Paint color of  shutters: TOLLENS Vert Olivier (satin) purchased at Castorama.

This is a traditional French exterior paint color very popular in France. I wrote a post all about this hue and supplied color matches HERE.

Tollens Vert Olivier is a French green commonly used on shutters in France. #paintcolors #VertOlivier #frenchgreen #frenchshutters
French farmhouse shutters light medium green paint color: TOLLENS Vert Olivier.

    This is absolutely stunning house! I adore that kitchen and thank you so much for the resources. Can they provide what type of wood and stain they used for their countertop? Everything I have seen locally is an awful yellow tone. This has such a rich natural look and a slight grayish tone. I bought a tiny house and this is perfect. Thank you!

      The owner is Charlotte who has the online shop Vivi et Margot – you could message her on instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/vivietmargot/?hl=en or you could contact Neptune Kitchens who did the kitchen design (cabinetry) and may have done the counters too. For the look you may be after, perhaps consider mixing a grey stain with a natural stain. Many folks don’t realize stains come in a whole range of colors. We stained a pine deck a light driftwood and it appeared aged, weathered, and natural. Hope this helps.
