Everywhere I look I'm seeing Japanese masking tape and more creative uses for it. I blogged about it a while back but I figure it's worth a revisit. Especially now, since it's so easy to find and buy online. Below you'll find a few projects to make with the tape. Also included our directions on how to create the package above.
Supplies:Decorative Edge Scissors
Japanese Masking Tape
Cellophane Bag
Ornament ( optional)
Cut out two strips of masking tape the length of the opening of the bag. Trim the edges with decorative scissors. Place the tape on the bottom of the bag so half of it's hanging off. Fold the tape that's hanging off over to the other side. Fill bag with contents. Tape ornament to the top. Place the other strip of masking tape on top of the bag just like you did for the bottom. Done.Here are a few more ideas to get you inspired.

That's so cool, I can't believe how many colours and styles of tape there are *_* I'm going to have to go find some from the stores you listed!
You make the most ordinary of things seem like such a treat. Great idea to trim the edge of the tape with decorative scissors... does it have a backing or does the adhesive gunk up your scissors after a while?
What a great simple, yet stunning idea! 'Thank you' for the pics and the info on where they are available...
So creative!
Makes the packaging way more interesting!
the tape alone is a beauty so no wonder adding it to anything can make so much appeal
merry christmas!!
