This kitsch christmas wrapping paper set brings back every big-eyed figurine and blow-mold decoration from a 1950s holiday table, all drawn into 21 all-over repeating patterns. Expect Santa kittens tumbling between ornaments, spaghetti-hair angels, tin robots, poodles pulling sleighs and gold starbursts, each one filling the whole sheet edge to edge with no central picture to work around.
Print them on US Letter paper, either borderless or trimmed to size, and use a matte finish for anything going into a journal so pens and adhesive behave. Wrap a gift, line a pocket, back a card or build a whole junk journal spread around them.
Using these images: free for personal projects such as printing, coloring, cards, journals and gifts. Handmade items that include them may be sold up to 30 pieces per design. More than that is commercial use and is not permitted, and neither is selling or sharing the images themselves or passing them off as your own. Please ask before any other use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What paper weight works best for printing these sheets?
A weight between 60 and 80 lb (about 160 to 220 gsm) works best for printing these sheets. It holds up to folding and gluing while still feeding through most home printers without jamming.
Should I print borderless or trim the edge myself?
Print borderless if your printer supports it, since these patterns are meant to run edge to edge. If borderless is not available, print with a small margin and trim it off with a paper trimmer.
Can I print these on A4 paper instead of US Letter?
Yes, A4 works fine, though the pattern may sit slightly smaller or leave a bit more white margin than it would on US Letter. Scale to fit the page in your print settings rather than forcing full size.
Are these sheets sturdy enough to use as actual gift wrap?
Yes, printed on cardstock or heavier matte paper they wrap small to medium gifts well. For larger boxes, tape a few sheets together edge to edge since the pattern repeats cleanly across the join.
What is the easiest way to use these in a junk journal?
Trim a sheet to the size of your journal page and glue it flat as a background, then layer photos, tags or ephemera on top. Pocket pages and card mats are just as simple since the pattern fills the whole sheet.
