What is washi tape you may be asking yourself. Washi tape is a fantastic new colorful, super fun and crazy easy product out in the market place that can transform anything especially your craft life! I was introduced to washi tape by my friend Michael over at Inspired by Charm in this blog post, 10 Inspired Uses for Washi Tape. Then I purchased my first four rolls on Pick Your Plum. Then I researched some ideas on Pinterest and was hooked. My first project was this one.
I chose my top 2 favorite tapes and wrapped around the USB charger. I can’t even begin to tell you how easy it is to work with. There is no way to mess it up- just peel off and start over! (**Note: the photo above was my inspiration, it is not my actual final project** Source http://www.coolmomtech.com/2013/04/washi-tape-phone-charger-diy.php)
My next project was a bath room vanity. The unit was not pretty, but I was not willing to spend any money replacing it. At first I was going to paint a decorative pattern on the door, but I ran out of time and energy…so I just added two washi tape borders to the door. I think it turned out great for a quick and inexpensive transformation.
My most recent project is probably my proudest. I got the idea on Pinterest, OF COURSE!! I merged several different ideas into one. Some may say it is too busy, and that is okay, but I love it! I took 3 washi tapes and created a frame border for my inspiration board above my jewelry work station.
For more ideas and inspiration on what you can do with washi tape, check out my Pinterest board. I have compiled all of my pins and ideas in this one board, What the Washi?!!
My next project that I am going to tackle is a 3 month calendar wall in my studio to help my team and I stay on top of projects. Here is my inspiration.
I would love to hear and see what you have done with washi tape, so please share.
