Swap Reveal : Part 1

My swap partners have all received their Paris Edition Petite Inspiration Boxes so now it's time to reveal the goodies to the rest of the world. Are you ready? Today I will show you what I sent to Elyse and Becca. Then in the next two posts I will show you what I received in return from them!
I covered the outside of my boxes with French paper and then tied it with tulle, a delicate pink paper rose, some vintage millinery lily of the valley and a glittered tag featuring a vintage lady.
I covered the inside of the box with pages from a French book and packed the box as full as I could with all sorts of lovely pretties.
And Voila! Here's what's inside!
French postcards, vintage wallpaper, book pages from a French novel, French language flashcards, a fleur de lis rubber stamp, the palest of pink Mother of Pearl buttons, vintage lace, paper rose and velvet ribbon rose handmade by moi, brass charms in French motifs, and a few other fun items. Hope the girls enjoy their little treasure boxes!

  5. What a lovely assortment you sent Jeanne! You really managed to tuck alot away in that small box. I'm sure Elyse and Becca loved them! (I love paper flowers-this rose is so pretty!)
