Very unique handmade Washi tapes. The pieces of napkin are a great idea & I’m guessing that Matte medium would work well too if you didn’t want the gloss. I’d love to see the brown paper bag done with just napkins too. Would have been so pretty with the pink roses, some green leaves & something else. Thanks for the tutorial. You’re a very chilled, relaxing crafter to watch.
WOW!!! Excellent tutorial!!! Previous viewer was right, YOU, young lady, are a very relaxing, chilled crafter to watch!!! THANK YOU, love your work!!! Unique!!!
I will do more video's soon. I took on a bit more than I could handle with opening an antique store with my husband but have since let him run the store entirely so soon soon I'll have ample time to get my Junk Journal space and video's back on track!
Great tutorial! And no loud music competing with your voice! FYI matte medium for normal weight papers is better than Mod Podge! Gel medium is for heavier weight papers. As far as I know, they leave no shine, but a flat matte surface.
This is so much fun, and such beautiful results! The other day I made a whole collection of DIY washi strips from 1 inch wide double-sided tape and inked kitchen paper. Every time I mop up ink with kitchen paper, I pick a piece out of my box, choosing one that has more or less the same hue on it (e.g. blues, greens, browns, etc.) so that I don't end up creating mud. Once the sheet is completely covered with ink, it goes in a pizza box ready for use in collage etc. Being two-ply, you get double for your money. I lay the sheet down onto the tape, a little way from the edge, and stick it down. I then tear off both edges to give a nice deckle-type edge to the tape, and then lay the remaining piece down on another length of tape, until I've used the whole sheet. I do have some napkins but haven't used them for this - the inked kitchen paper is fabulous - really vibrant colours, and free!! At the end of the session I stuck down all the torn off scraps onto another piece of tape. I didn't use any additional glue. You can also stamp on top of it if you want. I love your idea of adding some glitter glue! I have Stickles in all shades, which would be great for this. I must also try your fabric tape idea. I love art that involves using recycled materials and stuff that most people would throw out. It's so satisfying, making trash into treasure, isn't it!! There's no excuse for throwing anything in the bin, really... (My hubby thinks I'm crazy.)
I was getting lots of them from a store here called Tuesday Morning, they use to have loads of gorgeous designs, but sadly stopped. I now search 'decoupage napkins' on ETSY and find interesting ones.
Thanks Louise. These are lovely. I’m guessing you removed the ply from the serviettes prior to application? Oh sorry you answered my question around the 13 min mark. Sorry 😅
When I first used serviettes to decoupage journals, I honestly did not think to remove the ply's so it's a valid question! I learned the hard way to do that ☺
I use to get napkins from a store chain called Tuesday Morning, they had the best selection, but have since stopped carrying them or the stores have closed down entirely. I now source them online. A favorite shop is www.decoupagenapkins.com
Do you ever have a problem with color running from the napkins? I’ve tried using napkins and good quality matte medium. I ruined 3 small projects cuz the color ran on the flowers. Not sure why.
By the way; or BTW, my journals are going to be an interactive art exhibit this coming month in Johnson City, TN! www.erwinrecord.net/living/erwin-couple-to-present-art-exhibit-on-june-7/article_074aa28e-1dce-11ef-a0df-4fe2072720c3.html
They are coming soon. We have spent the past year opening an antique store and last week an adjacent thrift store. Next opening a repurpose/reuse craft supply store with adjacent craft studio (soon soon!) and THEN I'm back to posting my tutorials as well offering public classes in the studio :)
Thank you! This came out really cute! When you say sticky tape are you talking about double sided tape, masking tape, scotch tape, or something else? Thanks for the info!!
I really like both of them but that was pet tape blew me away! I just found your channel and I really did enjoy it so much that I already subscribed and can't wait to see what else you've been up to 😅
@@kimberleymaloy1728 I'm getting super close to having my studio back up and running. Just did a major shift moving from my cottage studio to a massive space and had to pause to open an antique and also thrift store with my husband. Nearly back to crafting again!
I got them off of Amazon. I buy as much as possible from our local shops but in a small mountain town, we don't have many shops so I'm not sure what brick-n-mortar would have it. Just search for Double Sided Adhesive Scrapbook Tape.
It is double sided craft/scrapbook tape. I'll try putting a link to an example here: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01NBJVU04/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Possibly. You could definitely adhere the napkins to the sticky side and then just use glue to attach it to journals. Great idea! Probably less expensive than the double sided tape.

I love it!!! Thank you, greetings from the Netherlands 🪻⚘️
Thank you! and Greetings from Tennessee!!
I love making my own faux washi, but you've introduced me to 2 new ways I had not thought of, and yours are beautiful. TFS.
Thank you!
Fantastic! Love the idea of using leftover napkin bits and the roll of brown paper readymade snippets is 🤩 😊!
Repurpose/Reuse is where my heart is!
WOW!!! Excellent tutorial!!! Previous viewer was right, YOU, young lady, are a very relaxing, chilled crafter to watch!!! THANK YOU, love your work!!! Unique!!!
This is stunning! 💗 By far the most gorgeous washi tapes I've ever seen!! And so easy to make! Incredible! 💗 Thank you ever so much for sharing! 🌷
Clever! And oh my gosh, so pretty!😊😊
Thank you!
You could also paint on glitter acrylic paint. I use it on cards often. Very creative and beautiful work on your homemade washi tape!
Such a great idea! Love that! ❤
Thank you! They are super fun to make.
Beautiful ideas. I hope you do an updated video of any new ideas you have. Very creative!! Thanks
I will do more video's soon. I took on a bit more than I could handle with opening an antique store with my husband but have since let him run the store entirely so soon soon I'll have ample time to get my Junk Journal space and video's back on track!
Great! So unique and beautiful
Thank you! I need to make more of these soon soon, they are fun to create!
Great tutorial! And no loud music competing with your voice!

Love the idea on wrinkled washi paper tape thank you again 👌🏻💚
My pleasure!

You are not crazy! More people should repurpose/recycle/reuse. It's my passion as well.
Absolutely love your washi tape creativity thanks for sharing can’t wait to try it
Thank you!. It's so much fun to make and gives a unique look to journals.
This is great idea, and fun to design! I love it.Thank you for sharing.
They all look gorgeous. I need more interesting napkins, like the beautiful ones you have.

@@cuteniquestudio Thank you so much for info; I'll go hunt some down. I was suffering from gorgeous napkin envy. :-)
I’ve gotten some napkins from eBay where you can usually just buy 2 instead of a whole pack. Pretty inexpensive that way.
I just love this! I have never seen anyone do this. Thank you so much for sharing this with us today.
You're welcome! Often I'm inspired by others but this one was an idea that came to me.
Thank you for sharing this...I'm in the process of moving house, but I'm keen to make my own washi once the move has occurred!❤
I watched a lot of videos and how to make washi tape. This is by far the most beautiful. I’ll definitely try this. Thank you so much.
Thank you!
GORGEOUS!!!! Gotta try this for sure!! THANKS A MILLION, great tutorial!!!
Thank you!
What a great idea, and very clever. Beautiful washi tape.
They are so much fun to make!
Love it when you’re on a video roll Thank you for another great video
Fun ways to use up scraps. Thanks so much for sharing ❤❤
These are gorgeous.
Very creative! Thanks for sharing!
Very cool washing will definitely try this out. Thank you for sharing.
This is GENIUS!!! I love this idea!!!
Great way to use up bits of scraps!
I love this! Thank you!
Love it, thanks for sharing!
oh my gosh, I have so many napkins and now I have a way to use so many of them...wonderful tutorial, thank you
Thank you!!!
I would love to see some of your projects that you use these on
I'll have to backtrack which journals have these in them! but I'm making and using more so will try to add links here when I get that sorted.
Great ideas. Thanks for the video
Brilliant idea to use bits & pcs of pretty napkins.
Relaxing & The Easiest way I’ve ever seen
Very inspiring. Can’t wait to try these. Patti
Beautiful!!!!
Thank you!
Great ideas 💡 thanks .
Wow, Amazing!! Thankyou♥️

I LOVED LOVED THIS❤️🦋❤️

Where do you find such beautiful napkins?
Beautiful washi tape!!!

Adorable 🥰
So happy to find you 💗
Happy you're here!
Do you ever have a problem with color running from the napkins? I’ve tried using napkins and good quality matte medium. I ruined 3 small projects cuz the color ran on the flowers. Not sure why.
I have but I recall was just certain napkins. I'll have to do some experiments with different napkins and medium to see if I can figure that out.
By the way; or BTW, my journals are going to be an interactive art exhibit this coming month in Johnson City, TN! www.erwinrecord.net/living/erwin-couple-to-present-art-exhibit-on-june-7/article_074aa28e-1dce-11ef-a0df-4fe2072720c3.html
Is it better to use thinner or thicker double sided tape? I have some heavier dbl sided carpet tape on hand. Woukd that work for making washi tape?
I just found this but seems there are no new tutorials, what a shame.
They are coming soon. We have spent the past year opening an antique store and last week an adjacent thrift store. Next opening a repurpose/reuse craft supply store with adjacent craft studio (soon soon!) and THEN I'm back to posting my tutorials as well offering public classes in the studio :)
@@cuteniquestudiothat’s great! Congratulations! I wish I lived close enough to visit your shops!
Thank you! This came out really cute! When you say sticky tape are you talking about double sided tape, masking tape, scotch tape, or something else? Thanks for the info!!
I should have clarified it's Double-Sided-Tape!
What is your reason to not use mod podge on the Kraft tape? You switched to a glue stick but didn’t explain why?
I really like both of them but that was pet tape blew me away! I just found your channel and I really did enjoy it so much that I already subscribed and can't wait to see what else you've been up to 😅
Waspet tape😂

@cutenique4911 nice to have your own store, I bet you rarely run out of supplies. 😆
@@kimberleymaloy1728 I still seem to find many excuses to buy more supplies. lol
@@cuteniquestudio don't we all?
Great tutorial. I would not to cut around the edges at 19:30. It was so lovely before (19:17)
BTW, I think your accent is beautiful! (I am English)
Thank you!
love
Cute 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Where do you buy the large rolls of 1 in double-sided tape???
I got them off of Amazon. I buy as much as possible from our local shops but in a small mountain town, we don't have many shops so I'm not sure what brick-n-mortar would have it. Just search for Double Sided Adhesive Scrapbook Tape.
Duly noted
I take it that you are using just the napkin ply that has the print, right? You’ve already taken off the two white plies of napkin?
Yes, she mentioned that :)
Is that double sided masking tape your using??
It is double sided craft/scrapbook tape. I'll try putting a link to an example here: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01NBJVU04/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
could this be done with masking tape as well? 🤔
Possibly. You could definitely adhere the napkins to the sticky side and then just use glue to attach it to journals. Great idea! Probably less expensive than the double sided tape.
@@cuteniquestudio definitely plan to try this out! such a great scrap busting idea!!!
Glad you asked. That was what I was going to enquire after. Experiment #42 coming up.
Where do you buy the 2-sided masking tape? Thank you.
It's double sided crafting tape, this is a link: www.amazon.com/dp/B01NBJVU04?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
Thank you @@cuteniquestudio
thank you again, I ordered some on amazon. Just another quick question, do you remove the white backing from your napkins? @@cuteniquestudio
Excellent! Volume is low.
Thanks! I'll look into that
Beautiful
Hummmm, “…a very easy tutorial”… that lasts 44 minutes?
That's because I talk sloooowwwwwwly. lol
Great video! These are so pretty. Thanks for sharing!
Can i use your homemade washi tape in resin?
I'm honestly not sure about resin
