Learn how to craft boxES & CARTONNAGE DESIGNS
Cartonnage is the art of crafting boxes and cartonnage designs with its origins in the 18th Century.
Since 2003 I have been reinventing the artisanal savoir-faire of cartonnage
in respect of the traditional techniques inherited from the master makers of the 18th Century
Hi, thank you for your interest in my beautiful craft!
I started The Cartonnerie in 2003. I always wanted to do something creative, but I spent a long time searching for what kind of creativity, until I went to a box making workshop, also called 'cartonnage'. I've been making boxes and cartonnage designs by hand in a traditional way ever since.
I love to teach you how to craft your own boxes or cartonnage designs. To elevate your creative work or to learn a new craft. On 20th June 2024, the start of summer, I'll launch my book about fine cartonnage: 'Crafting Fine Cartonnage: Basics & Beyond'. You can preorder yours now!
Enjoy crafting,
launching my book on 20th June 2024

lovely words
Sabrine's courses are amazing! They are very easy to follow, along with the instruction videos and handouts. It might take some more time if you decide to create a hinged box in a different size than the course (like I did right from the start, as I wanted to challenge myself a bit having some experience in bookbinding), but she gives all information you need to know to create beautiful packaging. I truly love this craft and am inspired to keep creating more!

The journey in learning these new skills has been absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend it. The video and picture pdf guide were a perfect bundle to guide a course taker through the entire project. They were clear, concise and easy to understand. The final products look beautiful! Being able to give a touch of elegance|luxury, and overall elevating my simple wedding stationery and pictures made a remarkable difference.
