Tonight we kick of the Washi Tape Mania (Midnight, CST)!
As a pre-event feature, I thought I would share a quick, fun project!
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 up front.
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 work room.
I couldn't be happier! So fantastically cute, right? It's truly washi fantabulous!
See you soon at the Washi Tape Mania par-tay!
Can't wait to see your projects {smile}.

This looks great! I just bought a bunch of washi tape so I am excited to get some projects done. Thanks for the idea! And thanks for linking up your projects at The Winthrop Chronicles.
ReplyDeleteWow! 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.
ReplyDeleteBack 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!
What an adorable idea. I will have to get some washi tape and try it out. I just realized I'm not a follower yet, even though I check you out often...Now I'm a follower too! I would love if you stopped by and followed back, so we can stay connected. Lori

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???
ReplyDelete:(
This is GREAT! Now we need a super cheap underground washi tape connection!
