Dec 1 // washi tape


Washi tape is just one of those perks for having to wrap up my handmade bags every few days. I have finally found a good routine. With a few simple items like colorful tape, twine and a "thank you" note and then away it goes. So many awesome colors and patterned printed on these little rolls of tape. I order a few ever couple months probably sometimes more often then I should. But the little things in life seem to keep it interesting. Anyway thought I would share a few of my favorite shops that sell washi tape, they might be the perfect thing for wrapping up your holiday gifts. If I lived somewhere that sold them in a brick and mortar shop I would love it!

On another note... 
I awoke this morning with a tired body and mind and said out loud before getting up "I really wish I didn't have to sew today..." I have a large amount of orders and have sewed all week, usually Saturday is my only day off from sewing so I look forward to it. But this week I was supposed to sew anyway.. Well within minutes of getting up my wish came true in the worst way possible. I grabbed a scorching hot cast iron pan which had been baking in the oven ( alex was seasoning it) and I had no idea. It was pretty awful. So I guess next time I better be careful what I wish for. I have spent the day with my hand in a ice cold bucket of water watching Mad Men and trying to at least get some laundry done. Well hopefully it will heal up soon...  

Happy December All!
