Adding Detail To Furniture With Washi Tape

by Canary Street Crafts

This project is a super simple tutorial for adding detail to furniture projects with washi tape. We used it to add a pop of color to the drawer on this little white table, and wanted to show you how easy it is.

We recently painted this table white, and after doing some distressing, we still felt like it needed a little something to make it special.

We found this pretty aqua washi tape in our stash, and decided it was perfect to easily add some detail to the sides of the drawers.

We used a similar technique on these stacking tables we sold in our booth a few months ago. After painting them black and white we still felt like they needed something.

LIKE IT. ON LINE I'VE ONLY BEEN ABLE TO FIND UP TO 3/4 INCH, EVEN AT THE WASHI TAPE WEBSITE. KNOW SOMETHING I DON'T?

  @Shirley Hey Shirley! That's about the width of the tape we used. There's actually 5 strips of tape on the side of the drawer, it's not one piece. Hope that helps! ~Amy
