Here are some Cigar Box Kits Ann and I are working on. These contain everything you need to make your own journal, album or scrap book. A typical kit includes bits of vintage ephemera, old buttons, postage stamps, ribbon, twine, old-fashioned picture corners, tags, labels, mini envelopes, fancy fasteners and more, all housed in a beautiful cigar box. Kit also includes two book boards, pre-cut, pre-drilled and covered in vintage paper along with two antiqued binder rings.
I love the bit of ephemera that says "Nerves Ruin Pep and Sleep." Ain't that the truth!
Here is another one:
The book boards are covered in some gorgeous old handwritten ledger paper from the turn-of-the-century. I love this ledger paper and have been using it in lots of our handmade paper goods.
The endpapers on inside book boards in this kit are pretty.
This is what they look like all packaged up. If you are interested in Cigar Box Kits, email us at inquire@secretleaves.com.

everything you need, a gift within a gift. lovely idea. i just posted on 'recycling/reclaiming' vintage bits -- would love for you to stop by.
These are great. I've been looking for cigar boxes for awhile. What do you charge for a kit like this?

Hi Kimberly. Thanks for stopping by. The kits are $85. You can also purchase a kit without the book boards, rings and blank pages (it just contains all the notions) for $65. We have the two kits you see here plus two others available right now, and three more in the works. We can also make a themed kit for you: Travel, Wedding or Baby. Thanks for your interest!
