Easy Washi Tape Crafts

Washi tape is a versatile crafting material with countless uses. You can use it to decorate notebooks or planners, creating a personalized look. It’s also ideal for creating homemade greeting cards, adding a colorful and unique touch.

You can use washi tape for wall decoration, creating patterns or shapes directly onto the wall surface. It’s an excellent tool for scrapbooking, allowing you to add stylish borders or highlights to your pages.

Plus, washi tape is perfect for customizing everyday objects, such as phone cases or pencils, turning mundane items into eye-catching accessories.

Washi tape is loads of fun to play with because there are so many different designs. I really love the kawaii styles but they’re hard for me to find. Most of the time, I use sold or patterned Washi tape. This spring garden card uses three different types of Washi tape and paper flowers layered on top of each other.

Do you need glue for washi tape?

No, Washi tape is sticky on the back so you do not need glue to use it.

Tips for using Washi tape

Plan your design: Before you start, have a clear plan of what you want your final product to look like. This will help you choose which colors and patterns of tape to use.

Layer your tape: Don’t be afraid to layer your washi tape for a more intricate design. It’s easy to peel off if you make a mistake or want to change something.

Use a ruler: If you’re working on a project that requires precision, a ruler can be very helpful. This will ensure your lines are straight and your measurements are accurate.

Seal your work: If you’re using washi tape on a surface where it might get rubbed or scraped, consider sealing it with a clear craft sealer. This will help protect your work and ensure it lasts longer.

Be creative: The beauty of washi tape is that it can be used in so many different ways. Don’t feel limited, and instead, let your creativity run wild!
