Paper cabinet of curiosities

 Hello friends,

Some time ago, I found this book «  cabinet de curiosités « 

I began to cut and to assemble the pieces of paper and I did not know what to do with them, so I took cardboard shoe boxes, painted them black and displayed my découpage in them.

I have some more left to assemble.

The scarabée and dragonfly, were part of my daughter Xmas present sand I just made them yesterday. Not easy to make!

For my last Birthday, my son has sent me these books about «  Cabinet of curiosities ». There is a shop in Rouen which is a real cabinet of curiosities it’s a very nice shop.

The cabinets curiosities are the ancestors of our museums, born in the 14thC , they were made from extraordinary objects.

(The book « cabinets de curiosités is from Ed de la Martiniere)

I hope you will have a good day!

The flower is what I did this afternoon.
