Who doesn’t love a fun washi tape project? How about adding some washi tape decor to a room?
Grab a few supplies — Exacto knife, washi tape, and a chipboard letter. I picked my ‘R’ up for $2.99 at Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago. I wasn’t sure how I was going to embellish it, but then the ‘washi’ spoke {giggle}.
You’re just going to make strips on your chipboard with your washi tape of choice. I did mine in small sections, rather than covering the entire letter upfront.
Then you’ll take your Exacto knife and trim off the access tape, using the chipboard as a guide made the trimming easy breezy!
You’ll just keep doing this until the entire piece is covered. I only did the front, because I knew the back wouldn’t be seen hanging on the wall.
I hammered a sawtooth hanger onto the back and added it to my gallery wall in my workroom. I couldn’t be happier! So fantastically cute, right? It’s truly washi fantabulous!
What fun washi tape projects have you been working on?

This is so fun, Kelly! I wish I could find Washi tape here in Canada. We are washi-deprived 🙁
Looking forward to all the projects!

Hey Claire:
If you live in Toronto, you can find Washi tape at a store called The Paper Place. It’s located on 887 Queen Street West and they also have a website you could order from. Here’s the link here:

I bought a couple of rolls and I’m still trying to decide what to do with them. Hope it helps.

Wow! I am so going to copy this idea! I hope you dont mind! I saw your post on the link up at Trendy Treehouse…it was my first time to link up, so I hope I did it correctly.
Back to the Washi Tape, my youngest son picked out the same letters, spelling out his name, but I have them put away because I could not decide how to decorate them.
I just bought a couple of Washi Tape rolls, so I am going to get the letters out and let him create away!
Thanks!
Lori says

I went to Target yesterday and I could NOT find any washi tape! I asked 3 people that worked there. 2 of them looked at me like I was an idiot and one actually walked around to HELP me find it. No luck. Where can I get this stuff???
