Hello!

I am looking for large sheets of handmade paper, the nice soft, delicate stuff that I can use as a sort of wrapping paper...

do you know where I can get some - need lots or have some I can buy from you????

    They do the large sheets in our local craft/stationery shop. Do you have anything like that near you?

    I've seen those packagey type things done before and they look really nice. Might nab the idea myself. You have to show us pics when you're done.

    Well, along the same lines of your idea. Probably completely different, but in my mind they were the same.?

    I think you'd find the handmade paper too thick to use for wrapping. Also I doubt it would fit neatly in an envelope and will cost more in postage if it's above 5mm deep. I'd save your money as the paper would be put in the bin as soon as your invites are received anyway.

    I was thinking more of the tissue paper stuff....... and my envelopes would be C6 or A4 anyhoo as my invitations arent conventional. hmm you might be right tho..

    LOL is anything o our wedding conventional?? lololol.... I've spent the last hour looking at WW2 posters - dont ask!

    and cheers for the link PW.
