Decorative Fun with Washi Tape

It's giveaway season here at ATP so be sure to check in each Monday to see the latest offering. First up is Zakka Life blogger Jessica Okui's new craft title, Fun with Washi. This handy little book, measuring only about six inches square, has 128 pages filled with clever, modern projects. You'll find novel uses for all those tantalizing rolls of paper washi tape you may or may not have already been tempted to purchase.



Fun with Washi - Book Cover


 

Included are home decor, accessory, stationery, and party/present wrapping ideas. Quite a few of the 35 projects would be ideal to make and give as holiday gifts.

 

Party Favor Packages with Washi Tape

 
The beautifully photographed book starts off with a thorough section on Materials & Tools and another on Techniques. 

Here's a sampling of the Home Decor Table of Contents.  
 

Fun with Washi - Project Sampling


Jessica's smocked paper luminary and several examples of washi tape wall art are some of my favorites. Step-by-step text directions detail each project; there are helpful diagrams where needed.


 Folded Paper Luminaries with Washi Tape


 

True Japanese washi tape is low-tack, making it ideal for use on walls. A standout is a faux headboard line drawing... a casual, but effective substitute for the real thing. And how neat are these temporary Christmas gifts!

    My daughter uses washi tape in her journal. We had lots of fun picking what patterns and colors to buy. I would love to use washi tape in my art classes for kids and think there might be some good inspiration here. cguard skyview at countryspeed dot com
