Hey Kessy x Googly Gooeys Blog Giveaway! (Contest Closed)

Ever since the Happy Things blog giveaway earlier this year, people have been asking, โ€œWhere do can you buy washi tapes?โ€  I got that question one toooooo many times I actually wanted to put it on our FAQโ€˜s section!  I also get asked the same thing over and over on Instagram I actually wanted to build a separate section of Instagram FAQโ€™s on this site ๐Ÿ˜›

On the other hand, Mansy of Hey Kessy and I would meet from time to time to do some random arts and crafts or visit art events for fun.  I mentioned to her how much Googly readers would ask about washi tapes.  Iโ€™m pretty sure that if youโ€™re a crafter or a washi addict like me, you already know about Hey Kessy.   Hey Kessy also sells bakersโ€™ twine and decorative straws.  However, aside from being an online shop, Hey Kessy also aims to build a community that fosters creativity through its various workshops.  Speaking of workshops, you might want to check out the  Hey Kessy Messy Washi Party I attended last year ๐Ÿ™‚

What are washi tapes?  Washi tapes are decorative multi-purpose tapes.  We initially wanted to show you the many uses of washi tape but you might just get overwhelmed!  So, Mansy decided to share with us how to make a washi coaster while I played photographer & calligrapher on this post ๐Ÿ™‚

Make Your Own Washi Coaster Tutorial

How to make your own washi coaster? Youโ€™ll be needing the following:

a bottle of sealant (just mix equal parts of glue & water)

a foam

a base

your favorite washi tape!!

The reason why you have to make sure itโ€™s dust-free is to ensure that the washi sticks to the base neatly.

Make Your Own Washi Coaster Step 3

 

Make Your Own Washi Coaster: Put some washi tape on your base.

Make Your Own Washi Coaster: Flip it over & cut the excess tape

Mansy says itโ€™s important to cut the washi tape this way so that you wonโ€™t end up having funny edges on your washi tape.
