B300. Crafting Fine Cartonnage: Basics & Beyond by Sabrine Den Os.

Explore the timeless craft of French Cartonnage—the art of creating beautifully crafted boxes, a tradition originating in the 18th century. Since founding The Cartonnerie in 2003, Sabrine has been dedicated to preserving and reinventing these traditional techniques, and now she invites you to learn the basics and craft your own unique pieces.

In this book, you’ll find step-by-step instructions for a variety of projects, including a box with a fitted lid, desk jotter, folio with notepad, and more. Each project is accompanied by links to helpful video tutorials on www.thecartonnerie.com. Plus, there’s space for notes at the end of each tutorial, so you can track your learning journey.

With clear guidance and a range of inspiring projects, this book gives you the skills to build a solid foundation in cartonnage and encourages you to combine elements to create your own custom designs.
