Where French Cartonnage meets Needlepoint

Elevate your Needlepoint with the elegance of French Cartonnage!

French Cartonnage is the ART OF CRAFTING BOXES, and other pieces, from greyboard sheets, with its origins in the 18th Century. Since 2003 I have been reinventing the artisanal savoir-faire of French Cartonnage in respect of the traditional techniques inherited from the master makers of the 18th Century.

Handcrafted cartonnage designs with NDLPT frames enhance your canvas with refined, fabric-covered finishes. A timeless, professional presentation worthy of your artistry.

Whether you're finishing a cherished heirloom or your latest stitching project, this fusion of French Cartonnage and NDLPT framing offers a uniquely beautiful and professional presentation—one that’s worthy of your time and talent.

Enjoy,

Meet Sabrine

I started HOUSE OF CARTONNAGE in 2003, driven by a desire to create, though it took me a while to discover the right path. My journey began when I attended a box-making workshop, learning the art of French Cartonnage.

I’m the creator behind the NDLPTframe© for a needlepoint canvas, and love to create finishing items for your NDLPT creations.

If you’re passionate about the art of French Cartonnage in combination with needlepoint, you’re in the right place!
