Bonjour and welcome
Just like a real renovation, this site is still under construction. However, like renovating a house, this doesn’t mean you can’t live in it! And so here it is: the homepage of Home Made in France!
New episode available!
“When you renovate a house like this you need to have a vision”. So true! Bart and Monique are renovating their house in the Nièvre, France. This time without a contractor. Watch the second episode of Home Made in France ad-free on Patreon or on Youtube (from June 6th).
Watch the first episode
I crossed the Morvan Natural Park into the Nièvre department to visit Marcus and Angelique. They started their renovation journey in 2024 when they found their “Ratatouille” house. Watch the first episode of Home Made in France ad-free on Patreon or on Youtube.
Enchanté!
Nice to meet you! My name is Olav Smink. And together with my wife Marloes, and our two boys we moved to the beautiful Burgundy hills in 2019. The year before we bought our own French farmhouse there, which turned into a huge renovation project, which is still ongoing ever since. From day one I filmed everything which turned into the Youtube channel Aan de Franse slag (which is a Dutch pun on the saying doing it the French way and let’s get started).
You want to see more of our own renovation?
Visit Aan de Franse slag on Youtube!
I want to participate!
If you are renovating a home in France too and you’d like to invite me to film your renovation project… just let me know!
