These are the tapes currently in my collection. The blue polka-dotted one I’ve had since 2014 and it actually went through the washing machine once oops
The goldfish and underwater sea animal tapes are my two newest. I need more though…
Washi tapes usually cheap until you add customs duty and shipping Some people sell washitapes at second hand shops like “Dolap”.
here are my washi tapes & PET tapes!
I don’t always buy full rolls. sometimes, i just purchase samplers and cut them up to store in my sticker paper insert.
One really nice use I’ve found is decorating picture frames. I buy cheap-ish plastic picture frames (the kind that hold multiple photographs), and use washi to decorate the plain edges. They end up looking quite nice and even make cute gifts
Quick question for the washi tape lovers out there: if you send washi tape samples to someone, what do you put the samples on so that the person can unstick and use them? Any recommendations, please? Thank you!
I have received them on playing cards
Cut out stiff plastic from toys packaging
I use “PVC cards” for tapes without backing paper.
They are Php 5 (about $0.10) and you can cut them to smaller pieces to make more cards. They’re very sturdy! I like them. Otherwise if the tape has backing paper I’ll just leave as is.
MT is my favorite washitapes, too.
Although it’s a little expensive, viscosity is high. It is very good to use. The pattern is very beautiful and colorful.
This was two years ago, so now I think I might have 10 more or so.
I must admit, it’s an addiction.
Does your tape look like a lot of tape from China? Because I saw Chinese characters and Chinese Panda, ha ha ha:+1:
I have a collection of some narrow tapes. I usually use them to make borders on the postcard.
And!I think no one will say no to the gilded tape!(Gold is not used, it is just the name of a craft.)
Gosh, the red ones are gorgeous. I need to buy red tapes to fix my journal cover
I assume that i have plenty of washi tapes) One my table i keep a small box with the most used ones
And pieces of washi my pelpals send
Separately in a small cupboard I have some not often used or seasonal washi
I’m using a small Tea Forte box (from a gift) to store my washi tapes. It has a small inner box, so it is two tiered. It fits nicely on my desk. I’ll graduate to an empty Saran Wrap box after this!
I get most of my washi tapes from Dollar Tree. If you like one, don’t wait! They won’t be there for long! I also like Scotch brand which I got from Wal-Mart.
I finally got an empty aluminum foil box. It works out great! The metal teeth cuts the washi tape perfectly!
This is a brilliant idea, actually, never thought of it before!
I have an addiction to washi but I have become more selective lately about what I keep. I prefer Japanese brands like BGM but I also really like collecting licensed/character prints like Sailor Moon, Sanrio, etc!
