Forget-me-nots and a winged baby fairy make this wrapping paper a gentle blend of sentiment and whimsy. Designs like this belong to a long tradition of sentimental printed paper, in which cherubs, angels, and fairies were used to suggest innocence and tenderness, especially around births and baptisms. The forget-me-not, a small blue flower long associated with remembrance and true affection, adds a second layer of meaning, since it was a favorite motif on greeting cards and keepsakes. Gift wrap of this kind was often produced in quantity, so its survival and its pastel palette offer a useful glimpse at how family occasions were marked in print.
