white cherry blossom sparkle gift wrapping paper

Written on Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007 :: 0 comments to this post

This wrapping paper is one from our new range and it is absolutely divine!

It is a beautiful white colour with a swirly and with a flower that is similar to a cherry blossom pattern. The pattern is so pretty and sparkles as light hits the surface of the paper. The paper is slightly see through and quite thin which makes it even more gorgeous. This paper would look stunning as a table runner or decoration for a wedding. You could also use it for scrapbooking projects and it would look lovely on wedding or party invitations.

This is handmade in India and has the most beautiful surface - a quality light weight paper. The paper size is 56cm wide X 76.5cm long, large enough to wrap an average gift with some to spare.

This is perfect for wrapping that special birthday gift or perhaps will look good on presents under your Christmas tree this Christmas!
