Maybe he doesn’t come from big money, but his middle class grandparents would have left him something.

He’s moved on to the Dordogne to work at another Chateau and will be back apparently, his reason being he needs to work at other address as part of his work away visa or something?
I personally think he annoyed them when cutting the tiles and it all turned a bit sour. Ian was moving gold chairs around covered in dust saying they should of been moved and lots of things now need a deep clean. Both he and SJ had their poker vlog face on but it was obvious they were mega pissed off. After that Selmar was making bonfires, compost bins, etc and was never seen working on that room again. There was also a comment that stood out to me on one of the vlogs shared on here saying something along the lines of “at least he’ll be appreciated more than Stephanie did”, that sounds like the words of someone who knows more than just a superfan.
Irritates me very much too. In her videos, when she is visiting a church, garden or town, what will you see ? Her grinning face not the place.
On her visit to Marqueyssac, she doesn't notice that much of their boxes have been attacked severely by the boxwood moth. She does know nothing about gardening. In Europe we have this moths since ca. 2000. I would not plant box anymore because much of it will die. We did have many old (maybe nearly 200 years old) boxwood trees and hedges in our garden. Some years ago the moths attacked. Box squeletons remained
.
Don’t forget the discount she probably pulled out of it by showing his stuff to her deeply loving audience. She’s a real dealmaker, understanding the ‘art’ of it, just a comparison to once again get the narcissistic angle in the conversation.
She has many, and to all our delight and/or disgust she has them all on display for the world to witness. Unfortunately not many people are willing to help her overcome these challenges and instead are enjoying themselves recognizing themselves in them.
Possible, for me it was obvious that Selmar was pissed off of the gift grab at least. Perhaps other things too (waste, superficiality, fakeness etc).
He likes the parties but I think he likes to dance at parties but there has been not so much dancing respectively he had to make a one man show....
If you look at the projects he did in NL, you see that he is more eco and at the tit-o they don't care about ecology, environmental pollution, pandemic etc.
Stephanie never shows the finished work, only little glances during work. I think the stable for the nativity scene was the only thing Selmar did, she showed finished and I don't think that he doesn't finish his projects. IMO it's princess who comes with new ideas and is getting easily bored with projects. There has always to be something new for her, she has no perseverance, except in grifting
.And indeed are really making her worse by encouraging it and adding to the money and the acquisitions. While they think they are helping, they are actually harming!
I know what you mean !

Exactly. Let me be clear about my intentions: I certainly don't want to help her and as soon as the grifting is put to an end and she pays back what's she has so deceivingly stolen, I couldn't care less about her or her miserable HMN. It is interesting nevertheless that us tattlers get the blame for what is actually caused by the continuous encouragement of her super-fans. She will no doubt get her lake back, only to drown in it.
Can't see Daddy's paintings fitting in on one of those walls!
You can just wait until the moment SJ finds out Emmy Postma is getting her own tv show in Holland (your welcome, shittelaine). She'll be making appearances at this chateau shortly, trying to portray more of the slow and tonedeaf DIY Selmar is offering, because, well, you know, it makes her own place look so much more grand and his choice to work somewhere else so much more foolish....
I checked with official French websites.
There's no legal obligations for a freelance tradesman to work for three or more clients.
The freelance tradesman can have one client only but it's a risk of course.
Selmar got registered in France as a freelance tradesman (maybe auto entrepreneur or maybe not, doesn't matter) as any French freelance person has to do.
As previously said, as Dutch he doesn't need any work permit to work in France.
So... either they understand nothing (what a surprise) or they talk BS (what a surprise tooooo)
That monstrosity of a chandelier is too big for the room she intends to put it in. The ceiling is not high enough. She came over as an impulse buyer with no preplanning. She would have spent longer selecting which underwear to put on.
Such an accurate description of Isabelle/Mummy/IJ/The original grabber! I know we can't (yet) prove the granny farming, but just spending a few moments in her company explains everything about SJ's grifting skills. Not just apples that don't fall far....
His awful paintings fit nowhere, that's the problem, but SJ insists on them being prominent in just about every bloody room. I've said it before and I'll say it again, dodgy subject matter aside, they are just not nice to look at. Badly composed, awful palette choices, poor or missing backgrounds, and that very simple block pop art style is very hard to pull off unless you're very good -and sadly he's not. They just look like a hot mess.
That's what happens when Queen Emmaus goes antique shopping... she never fails to deliver on her origins.everything is possible but she should have a look at least before she said OK to the FIRST price

FFS, that money should have gone to charity. Local charity preferably, like the one mentioned on her village's Facebook page.
Worse Sj will be barging in with Philipa to translate her hyena laugh into Dutch! Emmy will have to suck it up though. Cannot believe she is living in a house with black mold on the walls. And the worst case in above their own bed. Well they will get a lot of work out of SJ and her poodle when they show up. Hahahaha
Run Selmar Run!
It's almost freaky how you have managed to start thinking like a true Jarvis! I trust this is all in the works indeed.
We all know there will be some installation ceiling height drama (because only suckers measure rooms and ceilings) and with a little Disney magic and et voila! Stephanie graciously takes the wee (so cheap that we won’t bore everyone to death by announcing the price the Patrons just forked over) chandelier into her bed chambre. Mystery solved. Nothing to see here. Move along please!
This is actually a really interesting and telling glimpse into his frame of mind: he thinks he's settling in. I know she's been trying her hardest to get him to that point, but still, given her history I would have gathered he'd given that some more thought. The only reason he's still around (sorry to open your eyes BJJ, you snort cutely, but it's just not for me) is the pandemic and the consequential lack of inflow of new masculine men to castrate.
Because the artist got f**ked over by the insanity of her commissioners.
I find that part sooooo disturbing, the part where he refers just about anything to his deceased grandparents. He's just using his family history in a very similar way to SJ: as if it adds something to their charm. It doesn't, BJJ. First you have to become somebody yourself.
