Vintage Holly Hobbie

I’ve been told by the boss of this blog that I need to save the big gun wrapping paper post for a rainy day, but I’ll give our readers a small taste of my passion for vintage wrapping paper by featuring Holly Hobbie. Now, if you are unfamiliar with Holly and Google her, you will be sad and disappointed. New Holly Hobbie sucks (except for Toot and Puddle)… However, vintage Holly Hobbie items contain some of the cutest illustrations I’ve ever seen.

My favorite by far is the paper with the illustration of the girl photographing the boy. Also, if you’re wondering, I don’t really save this stuff. I use it to wrap presents. But only for those who, as the label notes, deserve “the prettiest packages ever.”

Update from Sarah: That’s cool. You don’t deserve the prettiest packages ever anyway.
