DIY washi tape letters are a great decoration for a kids room or for birthday parties. My daughter Keira is obsessed with letters right now. She has to point out any time she sees a letter especially K for Keira. She wanted a K for her room and we will probably get the rest of the letters in her name to hang up in her room. I first wanted to try out a K. I was thinking glitter letters but didn’t want to deal with the mess. My place still has glitter from the last glitter project ;). Decorative tape or washi tape are so easy to work with and pretty.
What you need to make it:
Wooden or cardboard letters(you can find them at Target or a craft store)
Washi tape or decorative tape
Scissors
Start at the top and put a piece of tape straight across, cut off the part that hangs over. Continue to put one piece at a time straight across until you get all the way to the bottom. I alternated with two colors of tape. You can alternate with different colors or patterns. Then cut off any extra pieces in the middle(depending on the letter).
Put a piece of tape on each side piece lining it up with the front and cut off any extra in back.
I am a little obsessed with washi tape now! It is just so easy to use and makes everything pretty.
