It’s been a busy week here…squeezing out the last of summer before my grands go back to school! And I have been reminiscing about my trip to Paris with my oldest grandson when he was ten. Will I have the stamina to take the littles when they are his age? Time will tell! But in the meantime, here are my favorite Paris projects with a vintage touch!
I recently shared my Parisian architecture {aged paper} candle wraps, including the graphics and a tutorial for aging paper.
You can even frame them as vintage-look prints!
Here’s my linen and burlap vintage Eiffel Tower pillow…still a favorite of mine!
I also love this vintage book bundle with antique Paris postcards to copy…always on display in my home!
It was fun creating this vintage Eiffel Tower book bundle…but any image could be used!
My Parisian inspired candles were super easy…using Paris-themed wrapping paper that is still available at Hobby Lobby. Or if you don’t have one nearby, I have provided links to some great vintage Paris postcards that can be used instead.
I had fun playing with vintage maps of Paris to create candle wraps, book covers and vintage frameable prints! Plus there’s a link to this fun little vintage Eiffel Tower cut-out!
Baby Kitty says this is his favorite since he gets to play Catzilla!
And they are not just for Easter…my French découpage eggs! I used a full image of Notre Dame Cathedral to create this one…my favorite!
And just in case you would like a little vicarious trip to Paris, here’s where to start with all the details of my week in Paris with my grandson! How can it be that he’s almost fourteen and taller than me now? Sigh!
