Friday- Washi tape magnets

Hi everybody! Today's tutorial is really versatile so feel free to put your own spin on it.

You'll need
-sticky magnet roll
-washi tape in as many types as you want magnets
-scissors
-paper (optional)
-ball point pen

First things first, cut a square shaped piece of the roll, then trace the shape of the magnet you want to make and then cut it out.

Stick the shape on the tape, and cut around. If the magnet you have has a sticky side, you can also use craft paper.

There you have it! A cute magnet you can use on your fridge or locker.

Thursday- Washi tape bottles

Hi everyone, today's tutorial is again simple, but cute. It's less for use, than for display. These would be cute in a craft room, or even to store little things. It's a bit like the boxes we made a few days ago

You'll need
- washi tape
-small bottles (mine were from samples of olive oil)
-scissors

The first thing to do once again is to choose the tape. I suggest finding a few for each bottle (3 approx.) that look nice together.

Then wrap it around the bottle and cut it once it's gone all the way around.

Doing the cap is a bit tricky, but I traced the top and wrapped the sides, and cut all the excess tape. It will vary so just do what you can. Otherwise, you can easily paint it.

Voila!! Happy Thursday!

Wednesday- Washi tape clothespins

Another super easy tutorial today, but equally adorable.

You'll need,
-plain wooden clothespins
-an assortment of washi tape
-a board you can use an Xacto knife on (optional)
-scissors or an Xacto knife

First, lay your piece of tape over one side of clothespin.

Then cut around the peg so that there are no bits of overhanging tape.

Ta-Da!! Now make a whole bunch!

Tuesday- DIY stamped washi tape

Hi again everyone! Today we're making something amaaaaazing! I love this, but it takes perseverance.

You'll need:
-washi tape, nothing too flashy or metallic
-scissors
-rubber stamps
-an ink pad

You want to do this project on a surface that you don't mind messing up a bit, trust me, you'll probably get ink on it.

Lay out your tape. For your first time, don't use a tape that you're too fond of. Chances are, your first one will not be spectacular, mine certainly wasn't.

Stamp your stamps onto the tape. This may not work the way you want it to the first time, but don't get too discouraged. It happens.

At this point, just leave it to dry. But be very careful with it, because I ALWAYS end up smudging mine. Try not to make my mistake.

There you have it! One of a kind washi tape!!You can use all kinds of tape and stamps, and make a  whoole bunch

Monday- Washi tape boxes

Hello crafters! Today, we're making super simple washi tape boxes with simple things you have around the house. You know those little brown boxes you get a new piece of jewelry in, well it's time to re- purpose them into cute gift boxes or trinket boxes.

 

All you need is:
-various washi tapes in different colors and thicknesses
-boxes
-scissors

This is super easy. The hardest part is really to figure out what tape you want to use. But once you've made you decision, just take the beginning of the tape and put it under the the rim of the box . Then stretch it over the box until the other side, then tuck it under the other side and stick it down firmly.

Do this with as many stripes of tape as you want to, until you have the look you want.

You can choose tape based on what you'll put in it, like a kind of label.

There you have it! The simplest tutorial there is!
