Tape your hoops

September 7, 2012 by Denise Felton 1 Comment

As soon as washi tape hit the market, I started collecting it. I didn’t know what I was going to use it for; but I’m a craft addict, so I had to have this awesome new supply. So far, I’ve found it useful for borders on greeting cards and scrapbook pages. But I’m thrilled to see that Lia of Love Is a Many Splendored Thing has put it to work in needleart. She’s spiffing up her hoops and coordinating them with the stitching by covering them with colorful washi! Brilliant. See how she does it at her blog post.

And many thanks to Lish Dorset of Craftzine.com for pointing out this find.
