How to Make Washi Tape Geometric Ornaments

Materials You’ll Need:

• Plain white ceramic or plastic ornaments
• Various washi tapes (black, metallic, and neutral colors work well for a minimalist look)
• Scissors
• Ruler (optional)
• Thin ribbon for hanging

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Clean the ornaments: Ensure your ornaments are clean and dry before starting.
2. Plan your design: Decide on the geometric pattern you want to create. Simple stripes, triangles, or grid patterns work well.
3. Apply the base layer: If using multiple patterns, start with your base layer of washi tape. Carefully apply it to your ornament, smoothing out any bubbles.
4. Create your pattern: Use different washi tapes to create your geometric design. You can use a ruler for straight lines or cut small pieces for more intricate patterns.
5. Trim excess: Carefully trim any excess tape around the edges of the ornament using scissors.
6. Seal the edges: Gently press down all edges of the tape to ensure they’re securely adhered.
7. Add hanging ribbon: Thread a thin ribbon through the ornament’s hanging loop.

Tips:

• Stick to a limited color palette for a cohesive, minimalist look.
• Experiment with layering different tapes for more complex designs.
• Create a set of ornaments with coordinating patterns for a polished look.
