Washi Tape Art Creations

Colorful text reads "An easy washi tape art project for kids" with an example of abstract art creations and rolls of washi tape.

Washi tape is so much fun to use!  You can pick up decorative tape at office supply stores, Michael’s, Hobby Lobby or other craft stores.  I also have bought washi tape online from various places.  Amazon has a lot of designs.

The concept is simple.  Peel off the tape, stick to paper and color in the sections!  Here is my description statement we glued on the back:

Students made colorful designs with tape as a short exploration in color and design.  They practiced fine motor skills with unrolling, cutting and placing tape on the paper.  Then, they used Kwik Stix paint sticks to add color and additional design.

Art Creation: Use washi tape to divide a sheet of paper into sections, then color them with vibrant markers.

We used Kwik Stix to color in the sections, but you could also use oil pastels, markers or crayons.

Colorful art creations made with washi tape and paints, featuring text: "Make Art with Washi Tape" and decorative tape strips.
