Hi creative friends,
There’s a little extra sparkle in the Craft Room this November as we welcome our newest collection, A French Noël.
Inspired by the timeless elegance of French Provincial Christmas décor, this month’s collection brings together soft blush pinks, champagne gold, vintage papers and beautiful festive details for a Christmas filled with old-world charm.
Our talented Design Team has been busy creating with the new collection, and this week Sandra, Nicola and Agnieszka are sharing three lovely projects to inspire your own Christmas crafting.
From pretty storage ideas and handmade ornaments to a clever little upcycle, there’s plenty of inspiration to enjoy!
Sandra ~ Atelier Vintage Rose
Sandra has started her month of crafting with A French Noël by creating one of her wonderfully practical monthly storage envelopes.
These pretty envelopes are a lovely way to keep all those leftover fussy cuts and little paper treasures organised, ready to be used in future projects. And, of course, Sandra always manages to make even the most practical projects look beautiful!
She also created a second version using the envelopes included in the A French Noël kit, showing just how versatile the collection can be.
Even better, Sandra has shared a quick tutorial on her YouTube channel so you can create one for yourself.
Thank you, Sandra, for sharing these lovely ideas and for always finding such thoughtful ways to make our crafting time a little more organised and enjoyable.

Nicola ~ Shabby Journals Crafts & More
Nicola has brought a touch of vintage Christmas elegance to the Craft Room this week with her beautiful handmade ornaments.
As the creator of our November Craft Room prompt, Nicola has been inspiring members to explore new ways of using their papers and embellishments.
For her project, she combined papers from A French Noël with decorative moulds and paper clay to create ornate, vintage-looking Christmas ornaments.
It’s such a lovely way to add texture and dimension to paper crafting, and the finished ornaments have that beautiful, old-world charm that fits perfectly with this month’s French-inspired theme.
Nicola has also shared a video tutorial demonstrating her process, making it easy for members to follow along and try something a little different.
Thank you, Nicola, for providing this month’s creative prompt and for encouraging our Craft Room members to experiment with new techniques. Your beautiful ornaments are such a wonderful inspiration for the festive season!

Agnieszka LaLoggia
One of the things we love about Agnieszka’s projects is her wonderful ability to see creative possibilities in everyday objects.
This week, Aga has worked her upcycling magic once again, transforming an old magnet into a sweet little Christmas decoration using the beautiful Santa papers from A French Noël.
It’s a simple but clever idea that gives something old a fresh new purpose, while adding a little festive charm to the home.
Projects like this are a lovely reminder that we don’t always need elaborate supplies or complicated techniques to create something beautiful. Sometimes a little imagination and a pretty piece of paper are all it takes!
Thank you, Aga, for sharing another of your creative upcycling ideas. We always enjoy seeing the unexpected ways you bring new life to everyday treasures, and this sweet Christmas magnet is no exception.
