Chinoiserie Gift Wrap


Wrapping your gifts in Chinoiserie style is a piece of cake with these wonderful Chinoiserie papers from Caspari. The toile ones are even reversible as shown. The line also includes coordinating gift bags, tissue paper, gift tags, and ribbon. I have just ordered and received several rolls and thought I might try framing some in frames from Ikea or Michael's for some beautiful budget versions of framed Chinoiserie panels.

  5. I love love these papers. I heard Colin Cowey say that everyone should have a signature wrap. How perfect these are for YOU!! My signature wrap is none other than black and white stripes. So easy to dress up for male or female gifts. Speaking of stripes I did a post today on a footstool makeover that you will probably like since it has a greek key pattern on it. Take a peek when you have a chance. I marked this wonderful paper site in my favs. thanks so much for introducing it to me, Kathysue
