happy sticky stripes.


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!

I 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. :)

I 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.

I can't tell you how much I love that you put Lightning in there as a frame of reference. He travels everywhere with us.

I just visited a store today thinking what would I do with all that Japanese tape?
Now 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.
