Well, I finally did it…I bought Washi Tape! So exciting. I was at Target the other day and bought the last three they had. I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with them at first but it finally hit me. I need to start decorating the mantel for Memorial Day. And, I think the colors are fun and summery enough. If you don’t know what Washi Tape is, it is decorative tape found in the office supply section. Here is the Washi Tape that I purchased:
At first I thought I would wrap the candle holders themselves but then I thought, no, that’s already been done. Let’s see if this stuff sticks to the candle. Sure enough it did! I started wrapping from the top. Below is a picture where I am halfway through wrapping the candles:
I completely eye balled it and didn’t measure. I literally wrapped my candles in less than 5 minutes! Here is the final product:
When I get done decorating in a patriotic style I will show you my finished mantel. For now, I LOVE my Washi Tape candles. Very patriotic looking

What a FANTASTIC idea for Memorial, 4th of July and Labor Day weekends! LOVE Debbie!
Thanks girl!! I’m behind the 8 ball on the Washi Tape
Thanks so much for your gift at the conference. I LOVED it
Cute, might have to buy some, but better finish the two projects already bought stuff for, or my hubby might ban me from Michael’s!
Do not buy any Washi tape. I have TONS and I mean it. You are free to use it
Awesome!!! I am glad you bought the last 3 packages.. They are hard to find!!! Great idea for the decorating candles. I guess this tape sticks to most surfaces… Thanks for sharing!! Happy Wednesday!!
WOW! I love them. Washi tape is so cool.
Love it…I need to check this stuff out!

I love all the ideas and inspiration you have for Washi Tape. Thanks for sharing!! Thanks for linking up at Romance on a Dime!!
Where do you find your washi tape? I’ve had a difficult time finding some!
Target in the office supply section where they sell tape. It was hard to find. You can also search on ETSY for handmade designs
This is such a great idea! Something I can actually create, lol. Thanks so much for sharing at Mix it up Monday

These look great! I can never find any washi tape. I’m still on the hunt for it.
Have you tried Target? Also, ETSY has some great Washi Tape too.
Except none of that is washi tape. That’s just the crappy paper tape from Target, definitely not the same thing.
What Washi tape do you like?
