The fad of washi tape has been one of my favorite for the last couple of years. As a photographer I am constantly sending  packages and letters in the mail and I like to add extra elements for cuteness. Washi is functional tape, similar to masking tape, making it easy to apply and reapply and it comes in so many colors and patterns.

I find myself using it for many other reasons: gift wrapping, decorating a flower vase, and making cards.

and these little tricks…

I decorated my laptop keys.
