DIY Washi Tape Gift Tags



It's all grey and rainy today, so I couldn't resist having a little fun with bold colour!

Card stock, washi tape and a couple of punches are all you need to craft up a multitude of fun gift tags in colourful stripes.



Start by covering a piece of card stock (white or cream works best) in strips of washi tape. Throw together any colours, patterns or widths you please. There are no rules here.


Use a large craft punch to punch circles from your washi-covered card. I used a 2-inch (5cm) punch. But go ahead, use any size or shape you have.


Continue taping and punching until you're satisfied.


Use a small hole punch to make holes in each circle - instantly transforming them from giant confetti to gift tags.


Tie one on! For added fun, apply washi tape stripes and use a fun colour of twine.  More colour, more fun!


If you're like me... ahem, no self-control... you might end up with heaps more tags than you need. If so, why not share your pretty creations? Slip a handful of tags into clear polybags...


Then add a colourful header card and a little more washi tape.

Well, that was fun! How do you use washi tape for wrapping gifts?

Happy crafting!
