Object of the Day: Victorian Scraps

This is one of several little Victorian scraps which I recently acquired. This one shows a child holding a fan and a card, wearing fanciful clothes.


Scraps such as this were carefully cut out. Sometimes they were mounted in scrapbooks. Others were glued to cards to create greeting cards. Others still were mounted and decoupaged to boxes, screens and other bits od the decorative arts.
