Beautiful
i clicked on your link out of curiousity and first thing i saw was a link to a webshop. aargggg. i had never heard of the washitapeshop (how!) and now i’m in heaven. and they have world wide free shipping. someone stop me please.
mchay, this is a topic full of addicts so I don’t think anyone is capable of stopping you if they can’t stop themselves either. I’m so sorry, I wish to be strong for you too but… it’s washi!
But if it helps, feel free to share a link of your favourites from that shop, instead of buying! I’d love to see!
looking up my favourites will only make me wanna buy them more
but these are super cute for spring (they are stickers actually) here and of course also with cats
and these are so beautiful
that is all i will be leaving this topic now
Oh god, I clicked those links as well now
Today I bought these two sets of scotch tape. Each has 4 pieces of different widths, the length of each roll is 5 meters. I stood in the store and repeated the mantra: “You don’t need ribbons anymore.” Finally I was able to leave
LOL they are pretty though.
Lucky you it was a physical shop and you can run away home.
For me it’s on my mobile phone 24/7 taunting me
I deleted most of it from my cart. But of course they keep on turning up on my feed
I cut it very thin to enter the postcard or depending on the print I made a collage and on top I put a Lolita doll stickers.
your collection is amazing.
Are these stickers and Washi tape from Japan? are beautiful
where did you buy them? Are they from Japan Washi tape ? they are beautiful and I love Sanrio sometimes I find them at daiso and buy them because they are expensive to go to Sanrio to buy
Yes, if the pattern is not a specific item, I usually tear in it in half or 3 parts. I cannot cut it tidily with scissor so I prefer to tear it and give it ragged look
Hi i’m from south korea and i bought them from a local stationery shop.
I love Washi tape and this is my mini collection, I use them all at once for decoration and I don’t have stock at home in drawers because my apartment space is small, whenever I can I go to the store looking for what I would like to decorate my postcard and buy several types at daiso and cando.
hello ah it’s explained. Korea things are beautiful and cheap right. thank you for replying.
The price varies a lot
Some are cheap especially from daiso and some are expensive. Just like in japan.
Regarding the sanrio washi tape set i bought, i love the design and it was cheap but very small and short.
I have been thinking. Washi tapes used to be like 5m, 7m or 10m long. But nowadays there are many cheap ones for 2-3m only. I think it’s better because that way we can get more variety. How does everyone feel about it?
I usually count any prices based on a reference value, for example, how much a kilogram costs (if the price is for 100 grams) or 1 meter of something. And it seems to me that it is more profitable to buy long ribbons than short ones. The main thing is that you like the drawing. I recently bought one 1.5 meter tape, at a fairly high price, and it ended on the 4th postcard (apparently, there was even less in the winding, maybe a meter or so). So for me, a short scotch is more of a disappointment than a variety. I’m always looking for long ribbons, thick books, large bottles of shampoo, etc.
Yes in term of value, bigger is usually cheaper. I also prefer the largest shampoo/soap etc for things that I use regularly. But for washi I’m still torn I get what you mean. It kinda sad if 1 washi can only last for 4-5 cards. Maybe 5 meters is ideal. 2 meters is too short. 10 meters maybe a bit too long? well unless if the drawing is really really cute.
However unfortunately in my country nowadays almost all washi is 2-3 meters long. The market wants cheap cheap cheap, so they produce cheap (and shorter) washi tape
