Washi
tape is taking the craft world by storm, and inside this book
are 101 ideas on how to use it. Find out what it can do (and
what it can't in a very useful list of do's and don'ts) and
how you can incorporate it into your craftwork. It isn't just
for making cards and papercrafts; here you can see it used
to decorate glassware, furniture and a cat box, made into
jewellery and hair decorations, adorning party ware and scrapbooks
as well as artwork. How did you manage without it?
There
are some good instructions in here, written by somebody who
has a talent for doing so. Simple projects have some very
self explanatory pictures, more complex ones a short list
of worded directions, while more demanding projects feature
some illustrated staged instructions. I like knowing what
I can and cannot do with the tape, and the bright modern style
of the designs suits the projects. There is a wide range of
things to make to suit many hobbies, many attractive photographs
and lots of inspiring ideas. I admired the brevity of time
needed for many impressive looking pieces, especially those
lovely flowers, realistic feather earrings and the party masks.
Simple and fun to make, this lovely book is sure to inspire
crafters to grab some rolls of tape and get creating.
