20 WASHI TAPE CHRISTMAS CRAFT IDEAS

Washi Tape is just about my favourite thing for making Christmas decorations with.

It’s modern, edgy and easy to use.

Which makes it great for kids to craft with as well – including big kids like me who are all fingers and thumbs with crafting.

We always have a bit of a Washi tape stash in our craft cupboard.

I find it doesn’t even need to be Christmas themed to make simple but effective Christmas decorations with.

Of course the other great thing about Washi tape is that it can be super quick to use.

There’s no preparation, no drying time, you just whip it out and start creating.

THE LOVELIEST WASHI TAPE CRAFT IDEAS FOR CHRISTMAS

I’ve put together a curation of the loveliest Washi tape Christmas craft ideas.

Ways to use Washi tape to create simple homemade Christmas decorations, ornaments, candle holders, wreaths, cards, gift wrap and advent calendars.

To make sure you’re all set to get Washi Taping your way towards Christmas, you can find some great Washi Tape to buy over on Etsy.

2. WASHI TAPE ADVENT CALENDARS

Washi tape advent calendars are a little bit more work than just buying an advent calendar.

But sometimes it’s worth it to create something really magical for your kids at Christmas, rather than just getting an identikit advent calendar from the supermarket.
