"The title is spot-on; this book is chock-full of quick and easy
projects that use washi tape as the prime material. From sprucing
up switch plates and personal tech devices to creating custom
wrapping paper, Courtney's book showcases the versatility of washi
tape and the way its patterns can add color and detail in
unexpected places. What I love most about this book - and washi
tape in general - is that it's so flexible and customizable without
a major commitment. " - Design Sponge
"Washi tape landed in our offices (and our hearts) a few years ago,
and has continued to gain popularity every step of the way. The
transparent tape originated in Japan and comes in countless colors
cute patterns. It is only slightly tacky, which means it's safe to
use on even the most delicate surfaces. In this new craft book,
you'll find over 101 cute innovative crafts where washi tape
shines. Author (and maker) Courtney Cerruti shares ideas for home
decor, entertaining, fashion, and fun. Since opening the book (and
promptly reading it cover to cover), we've personalized gift tags
updated our iPhone chargers. Next on the list? Geometric wall art!
Trust us, it's time to stock up on washi tape- you'll have a long
list of fun projects before you know it!" - RueMag.com
