there are endless options for a little roll of tape, no wonder blogland is still buzzing about pretty masking tape. i cannot get enough of the clever japanese masking tape features by luzel over at iDiY blog. be sure to check out part 1, part 2, part 3, and part 4 for crafty tape ideas. lets just say, it made a believer outta me. i ordered a new batch of happy tape for my own craft space.
it's hard to know how big the rolls will actually be, here's a bit of a reference for you. i love all the shades available. i ordered the candy stripe 5 pack along with the teal grid for wrapping up spring packages.
oh I just bought some for myself too :) and did a post about what they did over at the Kate Spade shop in New York! I love masking tape, the possibilities are endless!
ReplyDeleteI do love this stuff. I bought some while in Seattle shopping at Uwajimaya. I totally freaked when I saw it in real life and had to bring some home. I've tried really hard to use it and enjoy it instead of just hoarding it. :)
ReplyDeleteAll those pretty colors! No wonder people are going crazy for these!
ReplyDeleteOkay I just spent $60 on tape!
ReplyDeleteWe need to start a support group.
oh boy, i have yet to try the beautiful sticky stuff but have been tempted too many times. these ones are too cute for spring!
ReplyDeleteooo I love it! I've only used the cheep-o kind from Micheal's craft store. I'm excited to expand my collection. There are so many things to do with designed tape!
ReplyDeleteyou nailed it - the blogworld is buzzing about this tape like crazy! i keep seeing posts about it and each one convinces me more and more that i need to go out and buy some for myself!!!!
ReplyDeleteI just adore pretty tape....have you seen the floral numbers at Liberys of London.....you must check it out.
ReplyDeleteI am reading your blog with my 3 year old on my lap. As I scrolled down he suddenly screamed in my ear, "LIGHTNING MCQUEEN!" It's official, he's now your biggest fan.
ReplyDeletei enjoy the size reference. it works for me.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the pretty things you create with your pretty tape.
ReplyDeleteI can't tell you how much I love that you put Lightning in there as a frame of reference. He travels everywhere with us.
ReplyDeleteOMG!! .... OMG! .... OMG! I know! I can't stop saying OMG! I'm just that excited about this stuff. I've never seen it before. Gotta go get some!
ReplyDeleteahh, i've wanted this tape foreeevvvver, but i just haven't gathered up the courage to make a purchase...
ReplyDeletecan't wait to see what you do with it!
I just visited a store today thinking what would I do with all that Japanese tape?
ReplyDeleteNow I know. I am going back and buy a little starter tape. :D
thanks for the links! i've been seeing this everywhere but i had no idea what i'd actually do with it once i bought it. good to know it won't sit in a drawer and collect dust now.
