Scotch Expressions Washi Tape, Black, .59" x 393", 1 Roll

I got a sample of this tape from 3M. I'll be honest -- I had never heard of Washi Tape; I'm a guy and not a crafter so my first thought was, "Why would anyone want designs on their painter's tape?" My wife laughed at me and brought me into this century. Since that time, I have actually used the tape on a gift package I was sending to a friend. If you try to tie a fancy bow on a mailed package, it gets smashed, yet doing without any ribbon looks as if you have forgotten something. I remembered the roll of wash tape and used it to "fake" a ribbon around the package and constructed a flat "bow" that gave the mailed gift a finished look. I'm sure that if I were more of a crafter, there are dozens of things more I could do. But I'm going to go out to buy some more Scotch wash tape in several different colors to be ready for the grandchildren's birthdays that come soon.

Received my free sample - My grandson (3 yrs old) came to stay with me, I had purchased him a flashlight so we used the washi tape to decorate it and he thinks it is so cool to have his own personalized flashlight. He also has a mini ball collection so we found a clear plastic container with a lid and he personalized it with the washi tape so great to have a special container for all his balls. I really can't wait to see what our next project will be on his next visit.
