Washi Tape Storage Options!

I just read an article of how a crafter used cookie trays to store her washi tape.  Don't get me wrong I love to recycle just as much as the next person, but I have found that sometimes the recycled containers just don't hold up and then there is the whole cleaning it, drying it, and so on.  So, this post is about some wonderful products that can be used to store your washi tape and are reasonably priced.

Homemade Christmas Ornaments

I've been busy making Christmas ornaments since we lost about half of the ones we had out in the shed.  The shed we use to store our boxes is in the backyard and leaks.  Needless to say, the owners won't clean the shed so we can move our boxes to the other side where it doesn't leak.

My box of ornaments filled half way with water and it ruined most of them.  I'm not sure how long they suffered, but when I got to them it was too late.

Because I have an ample amount of crafting supplies I decided that I wasn't going to buy any Christmas ornaments, but rather I was going to set out to make them.  I found this awesome list of 101 Handmade Christmas Ornaments put out by Everything Etsy and saved my favorites for inspiration.  I've also decided that I would like to make tutorials for the ones I did make and am happy with.

I used FREE Collage images from Retro Cafe Art Gallery for their Christmas Contest.   The Santa and two girls were from the collage sheet.
