What Inspires Me: Washi Tape

Palette made with washi tape from Leslie Shrewring of A Creative Mint's Inspiration Book for decor8

In January I fell in love with washi tape. You'd think it was a creative packaging idea that captured my heart. Nope. It was a page from Leslie's inspiration book that she created for her Color Me Pretty column. Since then I've been looking for projects where I can use washi tape (as well as an excuse to buy some).

Love washi tape too? Looking to use it in your day? The possibilities are endless. Garlands. Cupcake Flags. Signage.
