Deutsch: Japanisches Reispapierklbeband – Washi-Tape (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Time to get your crafty-ness on & this week I’m showing you guys 4 craft ideas related to WashiTape!
What’s washi? {Quoted from Wikipedia}
Washi (和紙?) is a style of paper that was first made in Japan. Washi is commonly made using fibers from the bark of the gampi tree, the mitsumata shrub (Edgeworthia chrysantha), or the paper mulberry, but also can be made using bamboo, hemp, rice, and wheat. Washi comes from wa meaning Japanese and shi meaning paper, and the term is used to describe paper made by hand in the traditional manner.
Washi tapes are really gorgeous and the uses are limitless. In this post, I’m gonna show you how you can add washi tape to your paper craft, keyboard & even use it for beauty DIY! So let’s get started and see what we can do with it.
