Japanese Washi Tape

I can't get enough of Japanese washi tape! It comes in so many colors and designs, and can be used for all sorts of packaging and crafts. More and more, washi tape is being used at parties.

I loved how Jessica of Modern Moments incorporated stripe and polka dotted washi tape (or wasabi tape as she calls it) at Jackson's Rockstar Party.

If you're a washi tape newbie like me, there are some great tutorials out there. Find out how to make these decorative eggs, and apply washi tape to serving plates, candy bowls and cake stands on Elizabeth's blog, To Be Charmed.

Lisa from The Red Thread shows you how to create mini bunting out of washi tape here.

Want to make this simple invitation? Merrilee over at Mer Mag shows you how. Guaranteed to be easy peezy.

So where can get your hands on some washi tape? Lacey, known as "the girl with the kraft box/bag...washi tape...baker's twine obsession", carries a large assortment of washi tape and other goodies at her shop, Le Box Boutique. And I'm so excited that she will be one of the sponsors for our first Party Tutorial Contest (coming soon).
