I had to bring home baby, birthday and Mother's Day presents from my daughter to distribute. She always manages to find beautiful cards and wrapping paper.
I was at an estate sale and found that the lovely lady kept every scrap of wrapping paper she had ever come across. I am in love with this large stash. Here is a bit of what I think is Mother's Day paper.
Amber tries to help with choosing a box and wrapping paper for Christmas gifts but that dratted cone makes it difficult!!

I love this shop, it's been there for as long as I can remember. I buy most of my greetings cards there. They sell prints and posters, gifts and stationery. The staff are always so helpful and polite. I'd be devastated if they closed. It's one of my favourite London shopfronts and I like the gate very much. Thank goodness I photographed this when I did as there is now a row of Boris' Bikes infront. In January the bikes had all been removed. I wonder why? They're now back again.
The Medici Society was founded in 1908 by Philip Lee Warner and Eustace Gurney. The shop opened in the 1930s and is believed to be the oldest greeting card specialist in London.

This is our tree this year. I love sitting in the evening when everyone else has gone to bed and just look at the tree.
Chicago Printed String Company dates its origins back to 1898 to a company founded by Aron Weiner outside Prague in what is now the Czech Republic. The business made cotton bands that surrounded hats. Weiner moved to Chicago in 1912 – 1913 and founded Chicago Printed String in 1915. Its business was now advertising tape: cotton yarn imprinted with a company name used for binding, which it called Print-Ad-String. RIBBONETTE featured material comparable to silk and satin ribbons. The company moved to what became 65,000 square feet of space at 2300 W. Logan Blvd. in 1929. By 1960, it was reported the company produced 600 million yards of decorative ribbons and 210,000 reams of wrapping paper. To show its diversification, the company changed its name to CPS Industries in 1965. Shortly thereafter, it moved its production facilities to Tennessee and, two years later, was sold to Papercraft Corporation. Faced with the wrecker’s ball, the building was saved in 2004 and currently houses a fitness center.

Detail from a gift sack my husband brought back with him from Thailand. He used this hold postcards. The paper has that thick, chalky feeling of Thai-made smooth fiber papers and an intriguing heart motif.

Octava and Tereza Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles, 8 units, no glue
Another two stars from 2011, made from slightly different rectangles.
These canvases had some pretty bright wrapping paper over them but since I repainted my orange hallway grey, I am sticking with a grey/black/white colour scheme. So I searched all over and this was the only nice b/w wrapping paper I could find. I wanted 4 different patterns but no such luck. So I recovered them all with the same paper.
i'm in the process of updating my pattern/textile portfolio... here is an olllldie but still a goodie. Looks great as wrapping paper!
This looks like Estate Sale fare. The real telltale sign is wrapping paper. There's always another Christmas: People don't sell wrapping paper at yardsales usually. They sit at your house until you die, and then get sold at an estate sale. I haven't paid market value for wrapping paper in decades. Fuck that capitalism, that stuff is totally overpriced.

BACKSTORY: Got up around 8:50AM, made it out driving by ~9:15 and went out until 2:27PM for a total of 5.25 hours. Spent $60.55 plus ~$10.66 gas for 40.0 miles of driving (14 mpg @ $3.73/G), for a total cost of $71.21. We drove to 24 yard sales, stopping at 15 (62%) of them. We made 44 purchases (69 items) for a total estimated value of $814.81, leading to a profit/savings of $743.60. So in essence, we multiplied our $71.21 investment by 11.44X. (Also, if you think about it, the profit counts for even more when you consider that we have to earn ~$900 on the job, pre-tax, in order to take home the $789 in cash that we saved. How long does $900 of disposable income take to earn, vs the 5.25 hrs we spent here?) Anyway, this works out to a *post-tax* "wage" of $124.26/hr as a couple or $62.13/hr per person.

Our son, his wife and their two children were finally able to come over for Christmas. We had a fun time playing and reading books with the children.
This is the aftermath of their presents!
Treasure Hunt 73: Wrapping Paper
It took me a little time to think about this one!! So, in the end I used some light green "see-through" wrapping paper that my wife has to block out some light. I did like the effect the light made when falling across the paper!
