Gorgeous vintage wrapping paper from the 1970's.
Reminds me of the wrapping paper box that mum used to keep in the storage cupboard.
She would keep good wrapping paper from gifts that had been received
(that we hadn't mangled too much in the present opening process),
(that we hadn't mangled too much in the present opening process),
give it abit of a 'flaten out' and keep it in the box ready to use on a new gift.
I think the wedding one is my favourite in this set.
Many thanks to Annie, anniewalter.com for allowing me to share
some of her beautiful wrapping paper collection here.

DeleteThese are such adorable papers. What a great post, Donna! I love stuff like this. I actually saved the image of the kittens playing on cotton (?), because I liked it so much.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like them Heather! As soon as I saw them I knew I had to share them on the blog.x
DeleteWow you just bought back memories of many a birthday gift that I got in the 70's.
ReplyDeleteHi Vicky! Yes, stirred up some memories for me too. They remind me alot of 70's swap cards too - with the cute kittens etc.x
DeleteLovely work, you wrapped that post up well! I reuse wrapping paper a lot, it makes sense! Pantry one is my fav!
ReplyDeleteYep, I reuse alot of wrap too. I thought the Pantry one was cute and it had to be included. Not sure people have Pantry Tea's anymore!x
DeleteKittens!
ReplyDeleteYes - lot's of cute kittens in this post! : ) x
DeleteWow, i love thes, especially the cat with confetti (?) on its head! I have 5 sheets of retro christmas wrap that i've been slowly using for projects and a few cards also of that era that i really wish someone would reissue, eeh them were the dats! X
ReplyDeleteI really love that cat one too - I had a flashback to a similar wrap from my childhood the second I saw it. Great colours. I wish vintage wrap like these would be reissued too. Would love to see your Christmas ones! Have you blogged any of your projects you've used them for? Would love to check them out. x
DeleteLove the first one,engagement?
ReplyDeleteHmmm - yes, I think you may be right there. Love the colours & bell bottoms on their outfits.x
