Jane Austens favourite things Wrapping Paper
Jane Austen wrapping paper created from watercolor art inspired by visiting Jane Austen's house at Chawton and reasearching Jane's favourite hobbies and pastimes plus regency fashions. It's been painted in watercolor on a background on one of Jane Austen's letters to her sister Cassandra. Read more about my visits to Jane's home at Chawton.
Jane loved to write, to read, to socialise and sew. She also loved eating and drinking! In one of her letters to her sister she says " You know how interesting the purchase of a new sponge cake is to me"
During my research, I found that Jane would have eaten Bundt cake, for breakfast. They did not have baking powder in those days, so it was very labour intensive and made by whisking many eggs.
Jane loved buying ribbons and flowers for her bonnets. She loved a good sewing party, even saying she was the best at sewing her brother's shirts.
Jane kept the key to the tea cupboard on a chatelaine like the one in this fabric. She was a great tea lover and always made tea every morning for the family. In regency times they had no sewing machine, electric or things we take for granted!

I love this paper and it was large enough to put on the back of a glazed cabinet. It’s had lots of comments. I painted the interior to extend the image and it was very pleased with the result.

I really liked this product, the picture is lovely and the colours are really nice. I wanted it to up-cycle a writing bureau and I was concerned that the paper may be too thin. But it wasn't and it worked fine.
On the pictures I have uploaded the print looks a bit aged and not so vivid and new looking. As I wanted an aged patina but the actual print is clearer and the colours are brighter. The colour and prints are good.

Very strong quality paper used. I used it to cover a lampshade, and it looks stunning now. Vibrant and vivid. Such lovely colours.
