You are an amazing Artist. Bless You for sharing your talents, inspiration and imaginations THANK YOU 💛

[@Merveillesenpapier]

Oh thank you Anthony, you are very sweet !!! :))

[@gaslitworldf.melissab2897]

You are the _BEST_ paper artist out there, b/c your creations capture the quality of paper, showing texture under color. Much of the papier mache' out there looks like wood or resin when it's completed. Your eye for detail is impeccable. And your wonderlove imagination suits every age.

[@Merveillesenpapier]

You are very kind Melissa thank you for this very sweet and encouraging message :))), Hope you will like the next videos coming!

[@heathers510]

I am always drawn to Marie Antoinette items for my home decor. I especially love vintage pieces. Your creations always have that style. If I had seen these in a shop in my travels, they would have my heart racing with excitement because they are so beautiful! So perfectly executed! I absolutely love both versions of Marie Antoinette! They are stunning! You are an incredibly talented artist! I’m so glad I found your channel! 💗💗💗

[@Merveillesenpapier]

Thank you Heather! The first Marie- Antoinette was really a draft version I did pretty quickly . I hope you will like what you see here :))

[@zetasattic]

Another magical video . Love history so much also. Happy to see Clochette napping in the widow! And the letter!! And book passages! Happy you’re feeling better. Summer heat gets me down too. I’m a cold weather person also. Thanks for sharing your art with us😊

[@Merveillesenpapier]

Thank you!! Clochette doesn't leave the window corner these days, she pretty much lives(even sleep at night) in the studio with me now. Yes I'm enjoying a handful of cooler days before the warmth comes back next week, hope this beginning of summer is not too hot where you live ;)

[@zetasattic]

It’s so very hot!! Almost 100 degrees Fahrenheit. I swim everyday to cool off. Counting the days till autumn lol.

[@annissa8959]

Absolutely fabolous work! Watching videos like this is pure joy!

[@Merveillesenpapier]

Thank you Annissa! :)

[@rozanidesignsmasquerade7050]

Fabulous❣️ Very interesting, as always and also intriguing to learn about the relation between the artist and the client. Your figurine faces and overall representations of these historic characters are amazing and inspiring to me. The attention that you dedicate to detail in re-creating their personas and exquisite costuming is most impressive. These are truly labors of love.💖👍

[@Merveillesenpapier]

Thank you Rozani!it''s also a lot of fun to do them. It's a completely different way of working and working with paper. :)

[@rozanidesignsmasquerade7050]

You’re most welcome. Yay❣️

I just finished a Marie Antoinette biography❤ So excited to watch your video! I love your research and creations!

[@Merveillesenpapier]

Thank you :)

[@davidjohnston9356]

Dear Laetitia. Making realistic faces must be the hardest and really shows your skill. They look wonderful. 🌿 Glad to see you well, and hope your street was not damaged during the recent demonstrations. Wishing you a beautiful summer. Sabine🍃

[@Merveillesenpapier]

Thank you Sabine! It's a fun challenge yes! my street wasn't damaged but the downtown streets and shops very much so ....I will not make any comment on this topic..... Yes have a a beautiful summer too , it's starting to get very warm now overhere.

[@davidjohnston9356]

I understand you don't want to offend anybody. I was thinking and worried about you and hoping your antique book store was ok. Luckily your videos take people away from the realities of the world. 🍃

[@Merveillesenpapier]

Thank you Sabine ! The street of the old bookshop has been pretty damaged ,especially the expensive clothes shops but from what I could see fortunately not the old bookshop !Thank you we allneed that these days !

[@davidjohnston9356]

I am glad, I am fond of this old bookstore with all its treasures. Thank you

[@PaisleySzuSzu]

Incredible, beautiful work!

[@Merveillesenpapier]

Superbe!!!!

[@carlabevan2046]

I absolutely adore your creativity and your videos. I have recently sat and watched them all ( mostly) in the evenings and find your history lessons absolutely riveting made even more special by your love and passion for ancient buildings and antique books. I am the same - i love that period in history and know that all our ancient buildings are more than treasures for us to look after and pass down to new generations. Your artwork is stunning. A side note - i used to have your tapestry coat from Zara- and often mourne for it as it got taken to a charity shop by mistake last year 😢. I enjoy watching you wear yours though. Thank you for your continued inspiration ! Oh ! Will you be watching the up coming film on Napolean ? Xx

[@Merveillesenpapier]

Thank you Carla! Glad you appreciate my videos and also the historical ones.Oh yes that coat , it's sad youirs ended at the charity shop ! I will keep mine forever especially because I can't find anything I like and of decent quality in shops these days. I just need to redo a lining. Thank you for your kind words! I'm not sure , probably not , but it's good that these films exist for people who are not familiar with history or with Napoléon, I' ve watched the trailer, there are many things which are not correct , in the few minutes of the trailer, I'm too fussy with history and historical details to enjoy these films, the main actor doesn't look like Napoléon at all , Joséphine never had this crazy 80's haircut,Marie -Antoinette had no wig before being guillotined ...I'm too fussy! ; ) but welI hope it's a good film and that it will make people interested in this period. Thank you for stopping by!

[@carlabevan2046]

​@@MerveillesenpapierI feel the same way about everything. All my furniture, clothes, fabrics etc are 2nd hand, vintage and antique. It's the best way ( as you said ) to get the best quality and beautiful intricate designs. Thank you once more - such magic ! X

[@aletheadavis2461]

Hello! I enjoyed your video. It is amazing and inspiring. I tried some mulberry paper, but it does not do like yours. Can you tell me your specific brand? I would like to try it.

[@Merveillesenpapier]

Thank you! I buy mine in France , it doesn't have a specific brand, maybe you should try to buy yours in another shop.
