I'm starting a new glue book creating a collage collection with French ephemera. I'm using vintage French papers such as postcards, book pages, and postage stamps, and then adding some colorful images of vintage French furniture to create a collection of collages.
I start with a huge poster of images of vintage French furniture that I cut down into small pieces. I want to use an individual piece in each collage. In addition to that, I pull out my stack of vintage postcards that I acquired in Antibes, France, when I visited a few years ago.
This is just the beginning of my art journaling adventure in this glue book! I've got so many blank pages left, so I'll have lots of opportunities to come up with some new ideas to continue.
The poster came from Cavallini Press. Some art stores or book stores carry a selection of their posters.

I love the craft paper booklet. It looks like it could easily be made...maybe. lol
Thanks so much !!
I agree with you, Tonya. It definitely could be made. 👍🏼
Beautiful collages!! 💌⚜️
Bonjour Margarete 😘...such a lovely way to use our million of french papers, stamps and so on... 😀
Love your pages of furnitures ... They make great focal points. I think I will try a french collaging journal but "mobile" ring bound or bound with my Cinch... 😉 Have a great crafty sunday
Thanks for sharing.... You inspire me so much... 🙏🙏🙏
Hugs 😘

The French sure were prolific writers!! Are they still? 😉👍🏼❤️
This is a really neat idea. I've never seen a polio like that over here in New Zealand 🇳🇿. I'll have to have a look out for one and see if we have them. Thanks for sharing.
love it
Pleasure to see French papers, postcards,.. I have the same things which were to my grandfather. I hope to begin a collage with them. Thank you for sharing your ideas and tutos.
Wonderful, Sylvie❣️ I hope you will have the opportunity to do something with them.
Coucou Sylvie.... J'adore vraiment le travail de @Margarete, elle m'inspire tous les jours dans ma façon de scraper....
Au plaisir de te retrouver sur notre groupe... Bises

This is unrelated I think, but I clip out images of furniture and home decor that I like, and I have a binder with sheet protectors in it, and I put them into sheet protectors by room. Supposed to be my Dream House. So the first pages are the front yard and front door, then living room, kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, laundry room etc. Extra pages for holiday decorations like dining table set for Christmas. Trouble s I really don't get any magazines.
I had a binder I was working on but I misplaced it and had to start a new one.
I have a dollhouse and like mini chairs for some reason. There are so many different kinds of chairs.
It's a neat idea if you'd create a gluebook make with those pieces of furniture you cut out. That would be so cool! 👍🏼
@@MargareteMiller its good for ideas when I'm drawing a blank
Makes me want to go antiquing in Paris... 😢
I love it!
You can buy vinyage papers online, Dana. Try Etsy or Ebay. 😉
@@MargareteMiller oh, I know Margarete, I'd rather go and buy them in person
Qué inspirador trabajo este!!! Me haré un gran libro de acordeón para trabajar similar, gracias.
¡Maravilloso! Me alegro de que tengas una nueva idea con la que jugar. 😉💙
I would especially enjoy seeing how you use the vintage envelopes! ❤
I'm already thinking about it, Nancy 😉
Love your idea. Antique furniture, vintage postcards, envelopes, writing papers,- you can’t miss. Anything you add to this collection is the cherry on the sundae. Carol from California
Thanks, Carol!! 💙
I really like the accordion book base you are using and the theme of the French postcards and furniture images. I was surprised you didn't add any postage stamps, though! 😀 Thanks for the great video, looking forward to seeing your progress.
I guess I forgot 😂.
Thank you for this very fun and inspiring video. You do such a great job going step by step so those of us watching can see your process. I LOVE how your journal is turning out. ❤
Thank you so much, Michele! I'll keep sharing more as I go along 👍🏼💙
I love these collages. And i like your small booklet/portfolio you are putting them into! Thank you for sharing your process.
You're welcome, Dawn. I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 👍🏼💙
I sat here with a good mug of coffee, watching this vid start to finish. I really enjoyed it. Thank you for the inspiration. -janet
Awesome! Thank you for watching. I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 💙
Thank you for sharing your thinking as you go along. And your mess! So refreshing!
Thanks, Susan! I'm glad you enjoyed it 💙
What a FUN project! ❤
What about some kind of textured paper behind the chair in the top right corner? Something fiber-y?
Enjoyed the video. Beautiful project. The postcards look thick. Can you peel the front from the back so that you are able to use both sides?
I've tried that, but most of the time it doesn't work. I love the idea, though 😉💙
Hi margarete do you know where I can find this poster with the furnitures?
Your work is amazing.
Thank you for sharing your projects.
Hi Emily, the furniture poster is made by Cavallini Press. I don't know how to locate what stores carry it, however. 😔
I’m curious how the Book will Look at last. Thank you.
I hope to keep sharing as I am creating. 😉💜
This is lovely! Can you post a link for the folio?
Here is the link: daisous.com/products/4549892192241?_pos=43&_sid=def6f6e01&_ss=r
They are so cheap ($1.75) and therefore they only sell in bulk of 10 per order, unfortunately.
Thank you so much!
Love watching and listening to your process. Would you please share the brand and source of the portfolio? Thank you
It came from Daiso, which is a discount retailer here in California. I'm not sure if they have an online store. If you can't find something similar, you can always make something, using hinges to connect the pages. 💜
Do you ever scan or copy postcards so that you can use each unique side and grunge up the copied side? I haven't found any foreign language books yet..darn it.
Have you asked your local library if they have a used books section? Or find out when is there next book sale. 💙
Do you ever scan in or copy really interesting things like the postcard that’s interesting on both sides?
I do sometimes, Dorothy, but usually when I have a specific purpose for it in a project. I don't typically scan things just to store digital files.
Will the glue stick hold for years? Some say they don’t last.
I haven't had any issues so far, Linda. 😉👍🏼
Thank you!
is there anyway you can send us a few of the flowers and or papers and of course the great chais plezzzee .thank you we dont have any of theses beauties and we my daughter and i love this french items we never knew we want to make a journal thank youu
No, I am sorry, I don't create kits for collage. I encourage people to look within their own environments to fins papers.
Where do you get the die cuts?
Do you mean the pieces of furniture? They were from a large poster printed by Cavallini Press. I tore the entire poster into small pieces.
@@MargareteMiller No, the flowers. Thank you
