WASHI TAPE DECOR


Washi tape decor by Rama Eshwar

Materials needed are : Scissors and Washi Tape of your preference

 First choose the surface you want to stick the tape, it can be either drywall or door and clean the area with dry cloth.
Decide on the pattern and colors you want to make and you can start sticking the strip by starting at one end and continue to apply pressure along the length of the strip, and when you reach the desired length cut the end.



For decorating doors you don't have to follow any color pattern, you can go with random colors and random patterns.

You can for either go for horizontal or vertical pattern. In this door both horizontal and vertical patterns have been used.


 For this ZigZag pattern you don't have to take any measurements, the easiest way is first stick the center tape starting at the corner edge of the rectangle and end it at the other side so that it is slightly above the midpoint of the length of the rectangle, repeat the same process starting from the other corner edge of the rectangle.

For the remaining stripes just eyeball the distance from the center stripe and stick it out.

For the bird pattern cut 2 inch stripes of your desired colors and stick like the above shown picture.
