#PlanningForPleasure: Papermela Washi Tapes

Last July, I shared with you guys Papermela’s latest planner sticker releases. If you missed reading it, you can find it here.

This month, I’m happy to share with you that Papermela has just released something new – washi tapes! Yay! If you’ve been following me on my planner IG account, you’d know that I love washi tapes just as much as I love stickers. I use both to decorate my planners to make them look prettier.

So, I was really, really happy when I saw Papermela’s washi tapes. This is her first washi tape release and I’m in love with them. Look!

There are four (4) different designs. The colors, as you can see, are pink and green, which is a favorite combo of mine. Three out of the four designs are regular sized washi tapes, while one is a thin version. Each roll has 10 meters of washi. These are premium washi tapes, by the way. They’re made of high quality material and doesn’t break or tear too easily like the cheap washi versions.

I’m a girly girl so I really appreciate the floral designs. But I’m also into macarons so I love that washi design as well. As for the thin version, it’s full of motivational phrases / quotes, which is really great during those days when you need some positivity in your life. I don’t have a lot of thin washi tapes in my collection but I’d love to have more especially since I’m now using a smaller planner. So, this one from Papermela was really a welcome addition to my stash.

This week, I used Papermela’s washi tapes in my pocket Foxy Fix traveler’s notebook, which I use as a wallet and planner combo. Here’s how I used them.

I decorated October in my monthly insert. I don’t normally put a lot of decorations on my monthly layouts to begin with. Just a little washi is usually what I use here.

For this week’s layout, I kept it really simple to highlight the washi tapes. Of course, as the week passes by, this will be filled with my handwriting and more stickers.

I’m also using a couple of new notebook inserts, which have a plain kraft cover. So, I decided to prettify it with Project Life cards and of course, Papermela washi tapes!

These washi tapes can be used in all sorts of other ways though, not just for creative planning and journaling. I’m sure you all can think of other stuff you can prettify around your house.

I super love this new release from Papermela. I only hope she releases more washi tapes soon and stickers too, of course!
