I love washi tape. These babies are so versatile and make crafting so easy.

It can be used for the ever-popular bunting. Imagine how easy this would be to do!

Escort cards, anyone?

Use them as a quick fix for cupcake toppers.

Or to dress up simple, cheap vases and plastic cups.

If you’re not good with paint, you can use the tape to decorate letters.

We’ll be using the tape throughout our wedding, just like the cherry blossoms and paper cranes we’ve got planned. Check out this mock up of our program cover:

I downloaded these .png washi tape files from iDIY, which has been an invaluable resource to me.

If you’d like to start crafting with washi tape, check out Etsy!

What design elements inspire you?

I fell in love with washi tape but hadn’t begun researching its myriad uses. What great inspiration! Can’t wait to see what you come up with.

I have never heard of this!!! Is this a Japanese thing, or am I just out of the crafting loop????

so cute! i love your program mockup. patterny goodness!

i think i only have the fake washi tape..the kind that’s really just normal tape with a printed design, not the actual woven papery type. i’m too cheap for the good stuff

[...] was all set on the ribbon (although it could get a little pricey) until I saw this post on Washi Tape from Mrs. Glasses, and received a link to Happy Tape from Weddingbee reader [...]
