Some of us need to find ways, habits, tools to escape this modern world driven by technology and devices of all kind and reconnect to a past made of paper, ink, old books, silence and details. I show you how I do it in my own humble way in my art and everyday life living in an old apartment in an old french town.

It is wonderful that people like you still exist.

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

I'm sure there are many people like me who share this mindset but they are probably not very visible in the digital world.

@maryanneevans9563 2 месяца назад

I love to escape into your videos. They are so calming and full of beauty.❤❤❤

@lianapalumbo8457 Год назад

Isn't it interesting how many people are actively slowing down with technology in their homes. I'm noticing more and more that we are starting to take up activities, like writing letters, mending/making clothing and soft furnishings, pulling away from the craziness that is our world. Lighting a lantern at night to sew or read a book, instead of having bright overhead lights on and noisy TVs, is much more preferable. Thank you for another wonderful episode Laetitia 😊 xx

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

Yes I think it's a good sign that some of us are saturated with this technology, and dare doing things differently at least all the things we can control in our homes.What a difference it makes long term in our quality of life, Thank you Liana :)

I always get excited when I see that you have a new video up. Every one is a visual delight. Love your clothing outfits too, here and in previous video. It's all part of your beautiful and unique aesthetic.

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

Oh yes , more necessary than ever in our digital times and our quality of life and art benefit so much from these breaks :)

@davidjohnston9356 Год назад

Such a scenic walk to the bakery. Love the old narrow roads in Europe. I miss the breads the most. Celebrating and emulating the past is so important in an otherwise fast pace world. Really enjoyed this little journey away. Many thanks for putting so much effort in your videos. 🍃

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

Thank you Sabine! yes bread is such an addiction,I can imagine for you it must be hard sometimes to live without a good bakery next to you. I on't think I could survive ;) yes slowing down is so important for our mental health and happiness. Thank you glad you appreciate them :)

@davidjohnston9356 Год назад

I appreciate your time to reply. I believe you would like the small but beautiful illustrated book called PAPA GATTO An Italian Fairy Tale by Ruth Sanderson. It's about a very well dressed cat,( he is the prince advisor) his kittens and quest to find the best caretaker for them.( after his wife passed away) 😀 It's published by Crocodile Books. Have a nice week

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

It looks beautiful ! thank you for the suggestion ! ;)

Your shoe house reminded me of the nursery rhyme….There was an old lady who lived in a shoe, she had so many children she didn’t know what to do. But your shoe house is much prettier than hers.😁

@wheelhouse5793 Год назад

The way things are going I think that's a great idea 🙏

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

Thank you Sabine I can imagine it must be hard sometimes, good bread is a bit an addiction ! ;)It would be hard for me to live without a good bakery next to me Ive always had goods one a few minutes from my different appartments since I live in cities . yes we need to slow down it would be so much better even for the planet. Thank you :)

@totallydomestic433 5 месяцев назад

Your shoe reminds me of the nursery rhyme. There was an old lady who lived in a shoe who had more children than she knew what to do. But your shoe house was prettier than hers😂

When perusing your next antique market I highly recommend trying to find an antique ink wells set your beautiful decor would suit either glass or pewter ink wells. I love writing with my 1928 Parker that has a beautiful flexible stub nib that gives similar line variation to your beautiful quill pen. When on one of your walks keep an eye out for swan or goose feathers and make your own quill pens.

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

I do have one on my desk actually I put my ink sometimes in it, but I find it more convenient to use it from the ink bottle.Oh I didn't know some parker pens could do that too, that's interesting ! I tried to write with feathers but the ones we can buy in shops or online don't give the same result than the ones they were using in past centuries. Sharpening these feathers was a real art that seem to have disappeared, the ones I tried to sharpen myself were even worse....

@lynndopson1821 Год назад

I love the way you have embraced the beautiful life! You have inspired me to dust off my old calligraphy pens and reacquaint myself with that elegant art.

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

That's very good , I'm very pleased to read that Lynn !, yes it's so much more enjoyable than typing on a keyboard!

@epic5945 Год назад

Madame, you are immensely talented in your artwork, writing, decorating, and creativity. I too love the era of France in the eighteenth century. My home is decorated with a likeness to Versailles. Bravo to your channel.

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

Thank you, you are very kind! "A likeness to Versailles", wow that's intriguing ! Thank you for your message !

@fabchn6340 Год назад

Chère Laetitia, merci pour tes vidéos et pour celle-ci en particulier, j'avais du mal depuis quelques semaines à échapper à ce présent, anxiogène et parfois laid, et cette vidéo a eu l'effet d'une thérapie. J'ai hâte de voir ce que tu vas continuer à créer et à nous montrer.

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

Contente si cette vidéo vous a remonté le moral !! Merci de votre passage par ici ! :)

It's another inspiring and lovely video. Yes, a more meaning life style. Going back to our roots, I most certainly need to do this more, and we in our lives, don't we?! Your collections are so intriguing and ever so beautiful. You live in such an awesome town with architecture, so it's easy to go back in time. Ahhh, ink and quill in hand with the sound of quill scratching across the paper is heavenly. And who doesn't love the sound of a ticking clock?! Thank you again so much for such an inspiring video. Hello Choclette Question? Are your workshops more than directions and video demos? Do I need to supply my own art media and supplies?

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

Thank you Roksanna ! yes I know for us europeans, to time travel simply wandering in our towns is so easy yet few people really pay attention to it, Clochette sends you a cat hug. I'm not sure I understand your questions the workshops are made of detailed videos,with all the informations, links, supplies required, sometimes printable documents are available too , people can interact and ask their questions under each videos we also do live video calls the first weeks after the launching of each workshop. I'm not sure if it was your question though !.

@totallydomestic433 5 месяцев назад

I really need to get back to my calligraphy. Handwriting is so important. I use pin & nib, but have never used a quill.

I love living near to very old streets too, it’s a joy to see buildings that are still there after centuries isn’t it? Your shoe house is very beautiful, it reminds me so much of the nursery rhyme of the Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe. I loved this rhyme when I was little!

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

Yes it is most people who live in towns like us don't notice these buildings and all this past anymore , they take all that for granted !I'm not familiar with this rhyme, will try to find it !

@jkom601 Год назад

Dear Laetitia, what a sweet surprise as always ❣️Having vacillated from one word of the year to another, after watching this beautiful episode, you inspired my ultimate choice. Intentional ❣️❣️Laetitia, was wondering if this new shoe course is included with the older one? Your lovely living room looks so bright and cheerful with all of the light streaming in from the windows and equally cozy with candlelight ❣️🦊🧚‍♂️hope you and your family are all having a wonderful early Spring ❣️❣️💐💐🐝🐑🍄

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

Thank you Mary Anne! no the access to this workshop is only available to those who purchase it . Yes whenthe ssunny days are coming back it's very pleasant to be in this room Thank you! A beautiful transition to spring to you too !

@starbuono825 Год назад

Hi Laetitia. I love watching all your videos and also, aside from your beautiful artwork , I love how you decorate your apartment ! Are all or most of your furniture antiques ? I love everything French and am trying to decorate my bedroom in a French style and I have gotten many ideas by watching your videos so thank you very much for that I'm even listening to classical music for inspiration ! Keep up your great work and Thanks again !

@Merveillesenpapier Год назад

Thank you! In the precise french meaning of the word "antique"/ Antiquités no, none are.They are all late 19th or copies of furniture of the 18th but made in the mid20th century , une antiquité would be precisely made in the 18th for example would cost several thousands at least 1 thousand euros each piece and totally out of my budget, and too precious when you live with a cat... Glad if my videos inspire you for your home ! Thank you !

Un peu de beauté dans ce monde hideux, vous avez mille fois raison!... mais il suffit de sortir de chez soi et de voir des gens en jogging scotchés à leur portable pour que le moral retombe aussi sec.

@Merveillesenpapier 8 месяцев назад

Il ne faut pas y prêter attention il y en a beaucoup mais heureusement on arrive encore à croiser des gens habillés différemment qui regardent dans le vide lorsqu'ils font la queue ou dans les transports et ne se précipitent pas sur leurs téléphones , mais je reconnais qu'ils ne sont pas légions.
