A Washi World


I saw these photos on the fabulous Hello Sandwich blog and couldn't believe my eyes! Washi heaven. These are some photos that Ebony Bizys of Hello Sandwich took at the 2011 mt Masking Tape Expo in Tokyo. Many of my favorite washi-style tapes are mt masking tape from the Kamoi Kakoshi Company in Japan, so I was so excited to find this! 


I do believe there would be much less road rage in the world if we drove washi covered cars. Heck, let's give up cars altogether and ride washi covered bikes! Is this not the cutest thing ever? Seriously. So stinkin' cute. Pretty sure I'd ride my bike more if it was this cute.


Check out this AMAZING display that she captured...



The tape comes on these long rolls and then are cut down to the smaller rolls...



You can read all about how masking tape is created here. It's so interesting!
Hope you enjoy!
