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.

Love everything, especially the fan which I usually carry in my handbag. Guests would love them and possibly some of the art workshops could create their own paper and build a fan.

[@rosemariedeschenes7013]

OMG. Absolutely love your fan creation. Just brilliant ❤ ❤❤❤❤

[@vrpedulla3093]

Time to have a laser learning week! Ingenious creations.

[@sheilaosullivan3056]

You are such a talented guy Steve. You amaze me with not just your artistic skills but your technical skills and how you apply them to all your different projects . 😘🇨🇮

[@ElskeArtandLife]

Perfect for the hot weather!

[@sandramuis7430]

You are always coming up with useful, artful ideas. Love that! 🥰👍

[@srigging]

Wow Stephen...I love the fan...fabulous artistry with h4lp of your new creative machine. 👏👏🫶

[@sdole9448]

The sign is so great! Instantly recognizable and well branded. (your fellow chateau owners may wish to place orders for similar signs someday.) I know that you host several local art events, and your sign reminded me of one that used to take place near our former home. It was a kind of art nature walk, for school age children (ages ~8 - 12.) One stop (or station) had instructions to draw a certain tree in the style of X artist or style with an example shown in a frame similar to yours. One stop or station had string and some twigs and pinecones and clay and you could make a little sculpture on a square of cardboard to take home. a few other stops had large cheap empty artsy frames framing the actual object to be drawn (one of these framed a chair ) (e.g. flower, boulders, and the most popular was at the end of the route had gnomes in a tree stump. The gnomes had some apple cores - STOLEN from the basket of apples staged early in the walk as a still life opportunity.) Each child was given an inexpensive small art pad and brought their pencils and crayons or markers from school. There were no rules, except you had to stop at at least half of the 7-8 stations. Then the students enjoyed apples of their own and returned to their schools to discuss their experiences as artists. The work was not graded, there were no awards - just art, outside, and for fun. I know you have a conveinient group of school age kids nearby, and wanted to mention this low-key art idea. A chance for kids to see themselves as true artists, and to know that they can aspire to show their art as adults someday in your exhibits at the chateau. Your "front lawn" where you just took down the big trees would be ideal - shady, sort of enclosed, room to stretch out, a few blankets to sit and do art. Or if you felt braver, open more of the grounds. Your mown paths are magical. Just an idea. :)

Interesting! Very cool projects.

[@ManorandMaker]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@aprilninthr2886]

You make everything look so easy when I know it isn’t! Love what you’re doing with this equipment!

[@michaelgillespie502]

How about you study the master craftsmen and get rid of the machines and do it the traditional way!! Not very interesting 👎

[@ehpeachylove]

Wow! That was fun to watch Stephen. You are very talented and smart. The monogram on you water bottle is too cool! Your sign is awesome too. Great ideas. Enjoyed seeing your artistic talents in motion. ❤❤❤

[@ManorandMaker]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@annettewalter2273]

The fan looks lovely. For a first time it is brilliant.

You're so creative Steve! That machine is truly incredible.

[@ManorandMaker]

Thanks so much!

[@dennispatrick4999]

Great seeing you guys at LaLande Patreon Days. You guys were obviously very helpful at LaLande. Hey, Steve, can you and Stephanie update us on the tiles you finished from Stephanie's father's drawings? When will the tiles be made?

[@pmichelerowes3700]

So much fun! In your capable hands.

[@lauriedalley3768]

You are a Whiz at the laser printer now!!! There are endless possibilities and projects - very EXCITING

Thanks!

[@jaxstorey6734]

Your talents are amazing, Steven. Thanks for sharing your creative process with us all. 😃 Love, Jacqueline from New Zealand but currently in Bali.

[@ManorandMaker]

You are so welcome and thanks for your support.

[@susanbradford4543]

Another thought: the nicest abanicos come in fabric pouches. I had one made in some leftover lace that always draws complements. Sara could easily make those. Especially in a culture that is not used to carrying fans, finding a case would be difficult and the ones you find are not pretty.

[@ManorandMaker]

That's a great idea! I’ll have to talk to Sara about that one.

[@Metronoma1]

I love these videos where you make beautiful things with the laser machine!! More of that🙌🙌😀😀😀😀

[@ManorandMaker]

More to come!

[@lillianletters6071]

Wow! All of these turned out amazing. You're going to need to make several. I think the shop will be quite busy. ❤

[@juneparham4028]

Stephen, you are so creative! The sign is a fine idea.

[@robertphillips9410]

Good idea with names on water bottles...quite smart looking..also loved fans...perhaps even some different choices of patterns on paper..

[@ManorandMaker]

Great idea! I’m hoping to create a few designs and maybe add a new one each year.

[@robertphillips9410]

That would be good...was thinking perhaps a Christmas theme...with even little ones for hanging g on the tree! Ok...my mind went to my Christmas happy place!!!😂

[@pamkullman8839]

Your water bottle turned out cool! My daughter loved the owls on the fan and your new sign is nice!!

[@ManorandMaker]

Thank you! 🤗

Oh my gosh I love it❤❤❤❤❤. The fan is beautiful. The drinking bottle with your name is wonderful really amazing you can create these beautiful items

Stephen, your creativity knows no bounds with the Creality Falcon2 Pro. keep up the great work. Mark & Scott

[@robynforman1978]

Amazing creativity.

[@susanbradford4543]

I live in Mexico and use folding fans (abanicos, in Spanish.) a little bit larger fan moves more air, you might try scaling that up a bit. Just a suggestion!

[@greenleafgallery2424]

Beautiful! Clever!

[@beaniecat1980]

Beautiful! So creative 😊

Amazing Steve 🥰

[@juliechapman-xu4if]

I have a sandlewood fan that is carved with ornate cut-outs older 70's from China.

[@lisaakinlabi]

OMG what an awesome machine to expand your creativity Steve. It looks like so much fun - I would totally get into that! I have cricut machines to make paper art which I used for my classrooms in the preschool I owned. It was basically the same concept but only for paper and fabrics. I really love the items you have been creating and how cool it is you can put in your own concepts and designs. Truly a machine worth having for your specific needs.

[@ManorandMaker]

You nailed it. The applications seem really endless. I want to try a little more fabric cutting...

[@nancywhite4057]

I look forward to your vlogs!!! From Naples Florida

[@lynnfranzoni993]

What a fun creative afternoon you’ve had…

[@ruthhovsepian]

❤❤❤I love the fan idea. It's an original branding piece. Once you've got it all figured out, you can oil before engraving to boost the contrast or oil after the engraving to lower it. You can even try a wax paste after it's been engraved. It'll help with staining from the oils of the hand.❤❤❤

[@ManorandMaker]

Thanks for the idea. Hopefully I will sort it all out

[@Kiwi-Mel]

Very very cool.

I like it❤🧡💛

You must have had so much fun!

[@sharontibbo2510]

Just a suggestion for the Fans, instead of paper use silk. you can silk screen the design of your choice then attach the the wood arms of the fan. it reduces the bulk and the function willl improve greatly

[@ManorandMaker]

Thanks for the tip!

[@CantinhodasInspirações]

Love the fan idea...maybe you can try fabric instead of paper

[@ManorandMaker]

Great idea! Sara has a length or two😂

[@mikesmith9985]

nice!

[@pamelahanna5110]

Steve, this is slightly off topic... Such a fan of your creativity... Was wondering if it might be possibly to incorporate an "image" of Lancelot in the tiles for the LeLande kitchen? Just a thought....❤

[@ManorandMaker]

A lovely thought, that others have shared as well. We will mention it to S&P when they've had a chance to process their grief a bit.

[@susanbradford4543]

There is a language of the fan from Victorian times that might be amusing to include with the fan. The width open in example you were given is standard. Yours might be a little narrow. Your. Design is killer though.

[@luciaroslingshaw2112]

Super interesting. Where does the exhaust go?

[@ManorandMaker]

It's piped to the outdoors in our place

[@janpixnow3369]

So Steve does this mean you can print Stephanie's Dad's tile , he desigbed for the kitchen!??

[@ManorandMaker]

I’m going to experiment with that
