wrap me up

I found this lovely, inspirational book at the library recently... It is full of gorgeous, funky wrapping paper designs from the 1960's! I so didn't want to return it - so ended up taking some photos of my favourite pages (too many to attach all, sorry!).

  10. Oh it's funny to see these as wrapping papers because I recognize many of them as fabrics in print right now. I guess that's where they got the idea.
