Just about anything can be Washi-fied!
This incredibly simple technique may be used to adorn a variety of items with washi tape. Trophies, action figures, baseballs, hockey pucks, you name it, I’ve decorated it. Spray paint your unicorn white. Let your unicorn dry really well. Then use your tape to cover it. You can make zig-zags, patterns, and a variety of other things. That’s it!
Butterfly Craft
Can also be turned into magnets!
Cut your white cardstock paper into fourths to begin. Use washi tape to embellish your small cardstock piece. Directly fold your cardstock piece in two. Slide the folded end into the heart punch, leaving a small amount of space free at the bottom (see picture above).
The heart is punched out. You’re left with little butterfly wings in the shape of a heart. In the center of your butterfly wings, glue a tiny popsicle stick. Glue on two little googly eyes and draw a mouth with your red marker to complete your washi tape butterflies.
City Play Mat

Time to plan a city!
To build a road, place two pieces of tape approximately an inch apart. Place roads throughout your board, connecting them in a variety of ways, just as in a real city. Buildings should be placed in the free spaces around the board. Instead of being torn, the tape looks finest when it is clipped off the roll.
This phase would be enjoyable for older children who want to participate in the “city planning!” process.

A great kid’s craft for summer!
Two clothespins can be made from a tiny Washi tape roll sliced in half lengthwise. Choose any pattern and color you like. After that, cut a strip of fabric tape about 3.5″ long. Fold it in half lengthwise again, this time with the sticky side facing out.
The wings will adhere to the inside of the clothespin neatly, and you should be able to open and close it without the two sides colliding. Change the shape of the wings to make different bugs or insects, such as butterflies, beetles, ladybugs, or flies.

The cards are 3 inches long. Kids can do single image matching activities and when they get a hang of it they can use this for memory games. Also, these can be used as dominos. Have Fun!
Popsicle Stick Flowers

They will brighten your day.
Begin by wrapping the washi tape around the popsicle sticks. Popsicle sticks are the perfect size for washi tape. It neatly covers the front and sides of the sticks. For the stem, use tape to cover an ordinary popsicle stick. My color scheme was green.
Simply tighten the edges of the stick together. Toss the mini sticks together with the hot glue gun. Begin by constructing across with the first two sticks, then make a second cross with the remaining two sticks on the opposite side of the first. Just a dab of hot glue in between the sticks will enough.

This is what a momma’s heart needs!
Paint the puzzles’ borders pink and blue to make the washi tape puzzles. The washi tape sheet in the grey puzzle is actually a washi tape sheet. Then, because washi tape is semi-transparent, paint one of the puzzles white. Then gently applied a washi tape layer on top of the jigsaw pieces once the pant was dry.

Once the ribbon wands are dry, give one to each child and let them run around outside on a beautiful spring day! They are seriously going to have so much fun with their new wands!
