Washi Tape Fun - #PrairiePayItForward
Recently I was introduced to a new website – Prairie Charms.
It is full of fun, gorgeous and pretty girly accessories for hair, nails,
parties you name it! On top of this they are run by some very very lovely
people.
One of my most favourite things is when you can work with a
brand and a charity and that’s exactly what Prairie Charms and I have done
here. They’ve teamed up with the Make A Wish Foundation who grant wishes to
children and young people suffering from life threatening conditions. They challenged
me to buy something lush from their site, 25% went to the Make A Wish
Foundation. What a great way to give back to the community, and show you a
creative way to use the product. Now one of my favourites on their site is
their gorgeous, pretty and fun Washi Tape.
When it arrived in the great packaging (pink, sparkly and scented)
I couldn’t wait to get started!
Nails
First up:
Being a company which is designed to make you feel and look
good I have to go for something immediate and immediately chose to do my nails!
First up choose your tape and ensure you have some little
nail scissors ready.
Undercoat with a layer of clear nail varnish and lay your
chosen tape on top and cut to perfect size. Then seal in with a top layer of
clear nail varnish. I used these for a party in the evening and they lasted all
night and were much admired! Simple way to update your look!

I wanted a bit of beauty in my house too! We have a little
bit of counter top where I end up leaving scribbled notes for my husband and
kids and they always walk past. So how fabulous is this?!
All I needed was a simple cheap photo frame, beautiful fun
washi tape and a wipeable pen.
First up, make sure you don’t choose one with too fussy a
pattern. I ended up starting again after going slightly bonkers trying to line
up the patterns. Then layer it up across either light plain paper or card that
fits inside the frame. The great thing about washi tape is that if you go wrong
you can peel off and start again. When finished. Pop it behind the glass and
start scribbling on the top!
A perfect way to grab the boys attention!
Party
Wear
Third:
Just a quick one but we had friends round before the party
and I wanted to jazz up our glasses so popped a quick bit of tape round to make
them fun!
Perfect and easy to peel off before chucking in the dishwasher!
What do you do with your
Washi Tape?
