With Mother’s Day right around the corner, I thought it might be fun to share a cute idea for gift wrapping with washi tape. If you remember my duct tape gift wrap from a few months ago, you’ll see some similarities. I love the versatility of both washi and duct tape and I love that they both make it so easy to brighten up a package.
To make the washi tape gift wrap, you’ll need a wrapped package and rolls of coordinating washi tape. I used a white gable box for my package but you can also wrap a gift in white wrapping paper {or use my trick and turn patterned wrapping paper inside out and use the plain white inside}.
I wrapped two stripes of washi tape all around the bottom of my gift …
… and then made a washi tape flower. I folded a piece of washi tape back on itself …
… and repeated until I had five petals. I cut them all so they were equal length.
I overlapped two pieces of washi tape side by side and cut a leaf shape from them, then repeated that with another pattern of washi tape.
The flower petals were glued together with a dab of hot glue …
… and glued onto the gable box. I finished it off with a cute button in the center of the flower.
I’ve started truncating my posts … please pop over to my blog to read the rest!
So sweet, Randi! I especially like the little flower. 🙂
So cute! Gotta love a little washi!
Take care,
