Washi tape is one of my absolute favorite craft supplies. It is inexpensive and makes decorating plain everyday items, such as pencils, super easy. I have a drawer full of washi tape on hand at all times, but if you don’t have any washi tape at home you can pick it up at your local craft store or order some online. I have found that Amazon has some awesome deals on large sets washi tape, so I usually order mine from them.

Check out some of my favorite washi tape designs available on Amazon:

Directions

  1. Take a roll of washi tape and slowly wrap one of the pencils. I left a little bit of the solid color at the top of pencil showing.
  2. Make sure you overlap the tape as you work down the pencil, and cut off the excess.
  3. Repeat steps making as many pencils as you like.

    Now this is an awesome idea and an easy way for kids to showcase their individual style. Something tells me a washi tape order is in my near future. Fun!

    My teens decorate everything with washi tape but I don’t think they have taped up their pencils like this. I’ll have to show them this craft idea and see what they think. I have a sneaky suspicion I’m going to be seeing some very festive pencils soon.
