I had asked my brother to look out for washi tape on his travels so when he saw a craft store he went on the hunt. The store was crammed full of product and a bit on the messy side and no one spoke english. He asked for washi and they took him to a bolt of fabric then they indicated that they didn't have any so he stared to leave when he decided to turn around and look for himself...it was full of stuff so he thought they've got to have it. And they did.
Yum...

edited to add: I have been getting questions on what is washi tape and my best explanation is masking tape for scrapbookers and card makers (narrower and in way better colours)
wow! they are so many, cheryl! >.< if i got this, i'll be end up only staring at those since i don't know which one to use first. hehe :P
ReplyDeleteWhat does washi tape do? How did he find it? And how did he ever know what to look for?
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad I asked for diamonds..

ReplyDeleteYou could use it for anything really...it sticks to walls and metal and anything masking tape sticks to but better colours. I asked him to look for it before he went. We googled it so he had an idea and he was well versed before he left.
ReplyDeleteSorry but he could not find any diamonds in Japan....all out.
that is right...what a dilemma I have on which one to use first
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of washi tape but oh my how cool. Your brother deserves a huge hug for bringing home such a great treat. :)
ReplyDeleteOK Cheryl - sounds like a road trip to me.
ReplyDeleteStart packing!
I am in Antonella
ReplyDeleteso cool! I can't wait to see what you do with it!
ReplyDeleteWell, I just learned something new. If I had heard about Washi tape before reading your post I would have thought it was tape for washing machines...lol ;-) I'd love to have some of that!
