When I spotted this gift wrap idea from the peeps at Martha Stewart, my first reaction was “ooh, pretty colors”, quickly followed by “what a neat way to use lace”. This wrapping paper is made using scans of real lace on a black backdrop, and the coloring “magic” happens in a graphics program like Photoshop, so you can make the papers in any hue that you’d like. Best part? You don’t actually have to part with any of the precious vintage lace that you’ve been stashing away in order to create a pretty, lace-wrapped gift.
