This season, our household is trying to be as green as we possibly can. Our Christmas tree now saves us a whole lot on our electricity bill because we opted to skip on the lights. I think it still looks pretty!
I even suggested we skip on wrapping paper this year, so all our presents are wrapped in reusable kraft paper bags and boxes. I wanted to make the wrapping a bit more festive and decided that washi tape was the answer! I used it to make patterns on plain gift boxes. The goal is to make the giftee think twice before throwing the box away! 😉
Washi tape is made of paper & a light adhesive, with texture that is similar to that of floral tape and japanese paper. It’s a favorite among crafters, and lucky for us, they are now available in the country, thanks to Hey Kessy!
They come in many different colors and patterns.
There are so many ways you could us them: from gifts to garlands!
Our friends from Hey Kessy are giving out Washi Tape Sets
