While I was searching for historically correct wallpaper, my interest in this topic grew. I came across a lot of interesting facts about how, when and why wallpaper evolved, and how the designs changed over they years. I have included some of the information on the web pages in case you too may find it interesting. Wallpaper began as a cheap substitute for tapestry and paneling. Some historians believe that the use of wallpaper dates back to the 1400s.The first wallpapers were decorations for wood panels, introduced into England by Flemish craftsmen. The papers were small squares with images printed by wood blocks, which were then colored in by hand. A lot of the vintage wallpapers that are on these pages were made from actual photographs. I love restoring old family photographs and old documents, restoring the wallpaper photographs is just an extension of that hobby. Searching for wallpaper from the 1950's-70's took me forever. Finding pictures of wallpaper from that era was hard, but finding nostalgia websites about those decades was easy. I spent hours reminiscing. Lost in a time warp. I have included some links to these vintage websites to help get you in that nostalgic mood for working on your projects. I hope you enjoy your visit here. Jennifer
