View Full Version : Please look out for this paper on your travels!
Hi all!
I am going to be cheeky and ask you to be on the look out for some special 'wrapping paper' for me - I have had a look around town today and I am struggling to find what I am after. I need some Victorian style paper (thought wrapping paper) with either angels/cherubs or Santa on it for a project we are working on, at an art class I attend each week. I will obviously carry on looking myself but if while you are on your travels, you could keep your eyes peeled I would be REALLY grateful!!! If you find any, please PM me and let me know where!!
Thanks in advance
Lisa :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Managed to get something similar - one with victorian fairies on. Still after the angels or santa though people!

hope that helps
I stuck with the Victorian Fairies (thanks to any of you who replied or kept an eye out for the other paper I was after!) and the finished result of the project we were working on at the art group was a lovely Paper Mache bowl decorated in the fairy paper which I have used for a nut bowl over Christmas. Lots of people have commented on how lovely it is - so I'm really pleased with myself!!

I have some with cherubs on left over from Christmas. I have it in cream with gold cherubs and maroon with gold cherubs on. You want me to scan it into my pc and email it to you?

Many thanks Titian! You're a star!
Sorry for the delay of about 6 months! But, here is the finished bowl made from paper mache that I needed that special paper for! I used the bowl at Christmas for the shelled nuts! Here it is
