DIY Fabric tape

Hola everyone!

I am back with my 2nd post. For the first time I recorded a video for you all with instructions and all, haha. So I have been craving for Washi tape all week and it's really sad that I don't get it here, in Mumbai. And of course, the online ones are really expensive. So I thought of making this! Check out the instructions below or you can also see my video on YouTube!

So here are the things you will need:

1. Tape (Use paper tape or even scotch tape will work)
2. Random pieces of cloth
3. Scissor
4. Glue (Fevicol or Mod Podge)
5. Butter paper (or even wax paper)
   

So let's beginnn!

1) Cut the butter paper according to the size of the tape. Make sure its width is more than that of the tape!

2) Cut the cloth according to the width of the tape that you are using.

3) Once you are done with that, pin up your butter paper to a neat support.

4) Okaaay now we are ready to do the real work! :P
Start by sticking the tape onto the butter paper. Since you are using butter paper, the tape will peel off easily when you want to use it!

5) Once you have done that, take the glue and start spreading it onto the top of the tape!

6) Now comes the fun part! Take the cut piece of fabric and carefully start placing it onto the glued surface of the tape! Press it firmly :)

7) Let it dry completely for 15-20 minutes! And there you go! It's readyyyy! *woohooo*

I know it's a little shabby. :P

8) Use different materials like this fabric ribbon that I found! It luckily turned out to be the same size as that of the tape so I could conveniently paste it onto the tape! :D

Here are some more that I made.

Use them in place of almost any kind of boring tape. Check out the gift boxes that I wrapped with this tape. They look oh-so-adorable!

Hope you all liked it!
