    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.

    So pleased that you use 'Christmas' the true name for the event. I adore your nativity village and love that your adding to it each year is becoming a tradition. Oh, and the gently jazzed up 'Oh little town of Bethlehem'. Just lovely! xx

      I told several people to check it out-- even a vlog channel here in Michigan that does 30 min. relaxation nature segments. I hope it adds to people's holiday atmosphere and to your revenue.

    It’s just beautiful. How fun to create more pieces. We had a similar scene set up on our mantle when I was a child, the figures were my grandparents who immigrated from Italy to the US. My father built a manger from scrap wood and in the basement of the house he found what he called “ clinkers “ they were the residuals of coal burning . He made mountains with them around the manger . I looked forward to seeing them every year. Thank you for sharing your creative beauty.

    My Opa, a very devout man from Bavaria, had carved a whole Krippe (creche) for my Mom. It included the village backdrop, a starry sky (of course), many sheep and shepherds, the three wise men, and the holy family. We treasured that, and putting it up every year was so memorable. Your Santon made me feel warm and fuzzy. Joyeux Fetes de Noel.

    I didnt see Sarah's clay building, did I miss it? I loved that, kind of adobe. I also love the ones you made with the 3D printer. So cool. I think that could be the basis for some commerce, if it isnt already. I didnt catch the history of the figures- they look vintagey. From France?

    I love the new-old clay buildings! ♥️♥️♥️ They really go with everything else. 👍
    The wood ones are nice too, but if you have time (ha, I know) to paint them in the future, they can still flat-pack, but meld better with the aesthetic of the rest. Don’t think of it as “paint by numbers;” think more along the lines of hand-tinted photos. 🙂

    If these are Portuguese -- I'm guessing -- that man under the tree holding both arms up is dancing the classic folk dance and he needs a partner!

  • @ntakovacj3644
    @ntakovacj3644 Місяць тому

    I haven't heard that word "Santon" -- I have simiilar figures. I call them my Portuguese Nativity Scene. So many Portuguese people live here in Canada and every year I used to go to the neighbourhood hardware stores to add to my collection. I don't know why HARDWARE stores carried them -- Portuguese owner? Anyway I have a huge collection, rather fragile because they are plaster not wood or ceramic. I love them and it's fun to see yours all set up!

    • @ManorandMaker
      @ManorandMaker  Місяць тому

      That’s very interesting. The santons are a traditional collection started in Provence in the south of France. Maybe there is a connection to Portugal? Thanks for sharing.

    Please say you didn't throw out the clay building & mini-church. They seemed to fit in with the rest just fine. Don't be so critical of your crafts. I wish I was still working full-time at an office, s I would like to get the 3 chateau posted and display them. Good conversation starter and nice networking for your collectives. Healthy and safe 2025 to all !!!

    • @Stacia-ep9vr
      @Stacia-ep9vr Місяць тому

      Also-- the laser wood reindeer & sleigh I have noticed at your friends chateau segments and their episodes got me thinking. At the start of Advent, could you send a treat or a Christmas character to each chateau, and they make a segment about adding that item to the sleigh. After 5+ years the sleigh would be filled with: elf, snowman, sled, doll, tin soldier, puppy dog, kitty, bell, ball, etc. Might add to the cross-marketing and look really cute??? Just a thought.
