Paper Source papers as art

A few weeks ago the Mister and I stopped in the Paper Source while in the mall.  I'd never been to the Paper Source before and was enthralled with the wrapping paper.  I'm not really into wrapping things super fancy, and the wrapping paper is rather expensive as wrapping paper goes--$8 a sheet--but as art, its cheap!

There are tons of choices, but for art purposes, I looked for papers that had more of an abstract feel.

There are a few marbled papers:


Brushstrokes:

Florals:

Waves:

Hearts:


Chevron:


I may have gone a little overboard buying pretty papers.  I'm still in the process of putting them around the house.

  3. Can't wait to see what you come up with. I bought a Paris map paper from there and framed it. Can't beat the price of the art!

  4. Ha, I went to a Paper Source in Pasadena, sounds like on the same weekend you visited one. My first time, too. I bought a vintage map of California and it's up on my new stairway gallery wall!
