The last of the 2024 French Ephemera Bundle Boxes are here. Each parcel is filled with vintage French treasure to inspire your art journals, junk journals, collage, altered books, or other mixed-media work. Each box is curated by hand and is filled with hard-to-find handwritten paper, post cards, cabinet photos, and French brocante, all authentic and little pieces of mysteries and unfinished stories that have been waiting to be found. (I also add plenty of English and Welsh pieces, too. Because they are here. And I can.) To see still photos, scroll down.

While every box is different, each contains:

  • Vintage tin (distressed);
  • French, hand-addressed envelope;
  • 4 Vintage French Holy cards
  • 1 Mourning card
  • 1 Piece of Mourning Stationery With Black Borders
  • Vintage envelope and letter with black mourning border;
  • Three handwritten cartes postales;
  • Edition of La Mode Illlustrée, a womans fashion magazine dating from the 1870s to the 1880s. Four pages;
