Absolutely ages ago I was sent some lovely Washi Tape from the Scotch Tape Expressions Range.  At the time we had just moved house so I immediately came up with some washi tape ideas to make our new home feel a bit more personal. So far I have already used it to make a birthday card for my step mum, put up some art in the nursery and update the shelves of our living room bookcase by running it along the front of the shelves.  I really love Washi tape but it has until recently been quite difficult to get hold of in the UK.

What I especially like about the expressions range is that it come in different widths and the range of plain but vibrant colours as well as some really fun patterned designs, as well as the fatc you can buy it from WHSmiths which makes it instantly more accessible than ordering online. (Although you can buy it online too).

Washi tape is fantastic for making quick DIY updates because the tape stays looking neat and tidy but yet can be removed easily and changed later.  I actually put the print up in the nursery with it as a temporary measure but now It’s up I actually really love the way it looks.

And if that isn’t enough washi tape ideas to get you going there are absolutely millions of ideas available on pinterest.

DISCLOSURE: I was sent 4 rolls of Washi tape to review for the purpose of this post.  All thoughts, opinions and pictures are my own.  The range will be available from October 2013 from larger WHSmith stores, www.3M Direct.co.uk and . RRP £2.79 inc VAT for 15mm x 10m, £4.49 inc VAT for 30mm x 10m.
