How to store washi tape

It’s been about a year where I have a draw full of washi tape but it’s all everywhere. It wasn’t until I was given a wooden cutlery draw filled with cutlery and after I took out the cutlery, I nearly chucked it and then I thought I wonder if my washi tape could fit in here and I wonder if the cutlery draw could fit in my washi tape draw. So I took a brave step and decided to give it a try.

I took all my loose washi tapes. Some came in packs in circular containers but I had emptied them previously because that was annoying to get one out from the bottom of the container each time.

Picture of the cutlery holder I was going to chuck with my loose washi tapes:

So the cutlery draw fits the only other problem I have and maybe I should buy another cutlery draw to solve this and repeat the same process and add it to the top. So I can easily see all the washi tape, if I take out one cutlery draw.

In the meantime, I put the other washi tape on top of the cutlery draw and this is how it turned out:

It is definitely not perfect. But it’s much better than just having them spread every where in a draw. I do think now relooking at the final picture that adding a second cutlery draw to the top of the first one will be a good idea.

Do I still want more washi tape? Yes, I love buying washi tape because there are so many different themes for scrapbooking that you can buy them for.

Do I have enough for the moment? Yes, I have heaps. I don’t think I have even finished one tiny roll yet. So it’s going to take a while to use it all.

Do you have great washi tape storage that works? Please share in the comments below.

How I use my home for craft

So my home is decorated by my craft. For example, I have a craft room where I store my craft supplies and have space to do my craft and then I have in my lounge room showing my craft creations (pictured above) and also storing craft supplies like yarn, where I love to look at and think about the possibilities of what I can do with my craft supplies. It makes me feel good to come home and be surrounded by my craft. And it’s ok to never have your craft room finished. For me it’s a work in progress. I am always changing it and my supplies and where to showcase my supplies. This is because my interests change. One month I may be heavily into crocheting so I don’t need a table for that, I can just sit on the couch. I really just need storage for my yarn and crochet needles and my half completed crochet projects such as draws to cater for these. Another month, I may be into scrapbooking so I do need a table for this, my set of draws for the stickers and tapes and then ...

Crocheting my first blanket

So I decided that crocheting animals etc is pretty stressful. Not really stressful but not relaxing. A cool end result but I wanted to find something to crochet where I didn’t have to count the stitches or focus on the different type of stitches. So I decided to crochet a simple blanket. I just wanted to use a small amount of stitches and not count them. I didn’t want to do anything fancy. But I still wanted to crochet. I believe if I could find something to stitch that I could just relax doing than it was worth it. I started googling a simply blanket planet using single crochet stitch. And I found one. It’s simple start off with the first row with a chain stitch and then turn it over and do the rest with a single crochet stitch. Brilliant. So I started crocheting a baby blanket. It didn’t work out. The sides were uneven and the blanket was all different lengths. So I googled and realised after I do a row of single crochet stitches, I have to do one chain stitch at the end before ...
