I have had an idea for sometime to dye French newspaper a pale pink tint for gift wrapping. This romantic gift by The Seven Gypsies has captured the look I was after here. I love how she has used stamps to seal the edge and the beribboned gift tag.

Heather Bullard is the undisputed queen of vintage wrapping into presentation of beautiful slendor. She is a good recycler too, often using vintage flowers, bits' of vintage ribbon and my personal fav............leftover wallpaper, especially the metallic ones with a romantic nature.

Oh my, oh my, oh my...These romantic giftwrapping ideas melt my heart! I have a little stash of vintage buckles that I hope to use on a very special gift one day-perhaps for my mother-in-law's upcoming birthday. I adore vintage adornments, and Heather Bullard is so talented!! Speaking of pale pink tinted newspaper, I have some tucked into the base of my other homemade Christmas tree...I just never had the time to "finish" it and photograph it. Maybe next year.
