Sara, an IT professional & Stephen a graphic designer and artist are world-traveling Canadians who dreamt of moving to Europe, and France in particular. In 2020 they were working from home when Stephen turned to Sara and popped the question she was longing to hear, “What would have to be true for us to buy a chateau in France?” They searched online for months viewing hundreds of properties. They narrowed their search and toured some properties when they happened upon the one that captured our hearts, Château de Saint-Germain-des-Prés. A year later they made the move to France to start their new adventure in our beautiful Château. They created “Manor and Maker” to reflect the two sides of their adventure. One, to live as chateau owners with all the ups and downs and two, to pursue their passions as makers, creating art in all its forms. They will invite others to come together, united by their passions, to share in this adventure. We invite you to join us too, as we bring our dreams to life. Welcome to Manor & Maker.
Such a surprise but lovely to see Stuart popping up in the kitchen!😅 That must have taken a load off Sara’s shoulders and guests will still enjoy delicious cuisine. Isn’t it great that Chateau de LaLande has brought all these wonderfully talented people together and they have formed such amazing friendships. 👌🥰💐
Looks like a fun and creative time was had by all. Cracked up at 100 Stars robe balcony photo 😅😅😅 lovely to see Stuart again. Beautiful music and filming as well. Well done 👍 😍😘
Congratulations on a successful retreat! The food was generous, good hosting, beautiful surroundings and creativity. You are doing it right.
Just ordered my first print from Stephen 😊 can't wait to frame it. Looking forward to purchasing more... what a gifted artist. Thank you Stephen
Fabulous to see the château coming to life with all these artists retreats. Well done Sarah and Steven. X🇨🇮
What a splendid time. I bet your guests were very happy and will return for other events. How nice to have Stuart making a wonderful meal. I love the purple dress on you Sara, it's beautiful. As always Steve you art is perfection.
I am so happy that you had a successful creative retreat. All of their work is lovely. Steven, your sketch is beautiful also.❤
It was lovely to meet you and the retreat ladies at the brocante in Verteillac. Thank you for being so friendly to chat with us :-) it must be so strange to have strangers stop and talk with you out and about. Love the artwork being produced.
Thanks. It was great to meet you guys too. Hope we can connect again soon.
Amazing barn sketch! The retreat looked wonderful!
They’re both beautiful! What a gift to be able to produce these drawings! So beautiful!
Ever After is and always will be my favorite Cinderella story.
You’re so fortunate to live so close!!
What a great escape…doing art in a lovely place.
What a wonderful idea Art! I just love what the ladies created and I know they had a great time. Then the photography 📸 and the wonderful Chef meals!!❤
What a great retreat. I know they all enjoyed it. ❤
Hi Sarah and Steve, what a fun and amazing week, how nice to see Stuart in the kitchen. everyone's art looked so beautiful, and everyone really had a great time. I ordered both prints, I can't wait to they arrive, and I can frame them. I hope this helps good luck with the barn roof fund raising. Love from N.Y.
Stuart seems to be as beautiful on the inside qs she is on the outside. How nice to see her there!
Just a great episode. I'm not sure why but watching Steve sketch the barn brought back memories of seeing Victor Ambrose sketching the sites that Time Team visited years ago. What an incredible talent. So sorry I was standing behind the door when that talent was given out.
Better not leave out that I loved seeing the work that all the people did. What a wonderful time they all had, and the stories and memories they'll take back.
Beautiful drawing Stephen!
Amazing Steve 😮
Wow. What a brilliant drawing ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Wonderful video 🥰🥰
Looks like you all had a fabulous workshop. Love the drawings of your barn ❤
Thanks so much 😊
It was such a treat re-experiencing the week! Thank you for capturing key moments! Can’t wait for the September retreat and the ones for next year too!
Us too! So looking forward to September!
What a lovely retreat idea and the creation you all made were wonderful and Steve back doing what he enjoys and wonderful food by Stuart looks like everyone had a great time see you both next time take care 💕🌼🤗
@Manor and Maker. Chateau Adventures in France I see Stephen is starting the journey toward having Philip Jansen hair! Yay! All men should have long hair!
What a special time and pl,ace to share and inspire each other... especially with the sketches..
Thanks Mom!
Wonderful creative people. ❤
Could you add a donation section to the art purchases as well so your viewers can send a one time cash donation for the barn? You need to protect that beautiful building! Love you guys! Barb from Arvada, Colorado 🥰❤
Enjoy watching you and the students create beautiful works of art. You can go wrong recreating the beauty that is all around you!
Please let us know how we can purchases the prints of the barn!
Thanks for your support! You can find all the info on the shop on our website.

Steve, you are such a good drawer and painter. Wish I had talents like that.
Looks like a lot of fun!!!
Loved it! Thank you xx
Looks like so much fun!
There's a hole in the bucket (roof), dear Liza, dear Liza...
With what shall I fix it, dear Liza dear Liza (thanks for the ear worm)
Looked like a lot of fun.
Wow loved the art!
Steve great job on barn painting/scetch
Great retreat by the looks of the results at the end and happy faces all round! Steve your paintings are awesome and I will certainly order a copy asap. Sara you look lovely in lavender - you made a great job of sewing it yourself if my memory serves me right? 👏🥰
👋👍❤️
Beautiful video guys. Totally enjoyable.😊❤
there are two more chateau quite close to you that are so worth to visit,with amazing gardens…Chateaus in Jumilhac Le Grand…
A trick I learned for opening champagne is to twist the bottle not the cork.
Yeah, letting the cork fly is fun when it hits the second level…. But also costs some fizz!
I wish I could buy a print.
Thank you for sharing looked like everyone had a wonderful creative week with all the extras plus the food. Just wondering what the cost is for such a week
🥰🇨🇦
Beautiful sketch!! But how can I convince a community to give without a sketch of the hole? I think you must think big Sir. I will try to share the sketch of the first video pic you showed the hole, that I can convince my community to give? And the dog in the picture Sir. Thank you. Maybe then we have three sketches to choose from?. Was lovely to see your gardens. We seldom see it. Glorious video of the outside of the chateau.
Steven did you really sit there for that long? I would have had to have at least 3 bathroom breaks and 2 cups of tea. Wonderful painting!
Yep, one go. The full video is 1.5 hours.
Love your sketch of the barn What did you use? were they watercolour pencils or inks and pens?
At higher end dinning the waiter always has a white small towel around the champagne bottle for over flow saves on the spill and mess just simple touches of class to save mess and time but what the heck some like the mess for theatrical pleasure 😅
Love your channel. Please fix the title: you're invited not your. ❤
Done! It’s late… thanks for the nudge.
always turn the bottle not the cork.
I love you guys. Have been with you from start. I want to help with the roof. Can I get digital of art wk? May have missed howvto do this❤
Just go to the shop on our website! Thanks so much for your support!
What was the title of the art retreat?More details please. What is involved-it looks interesting?
It was called “Creative Awakenings” all the details are on our website. Manorandmaker.com
How much are the prints? I don’t see it posted
I would love to buy these prints, but I live in Canada and there is no where to put my full address.
Nice weekend
Next time wrap a towel around your bubbly as opening !
You need to thurn the bottle ,not the cork
And the champagne should be cold---less froth on opening!
I just tried to make a purchase and there seems to be a problem with putting in my information, help? No help needed after all, I placed my order!
It seems to me a shame to use this room for this work
To me I would develop one of your other buildings as an creative room , then your students will appreciate mor of the comfort of those rooms in the chateau
💕Why don’t you add “Buy Me A Coffee” to your page (Google it for instructions) as another option for people to donate towards your barn roof💕
