DIY Friday: washi tape notebooks

I'm almost always in need of a notebook or paper when I'm out and about. Whether it be for doodling, jotting down a good quote, or just because, I always have a notebook with meh and a cute one to boot!

Helpful hint:  Without paying a lot for JUST a notebook, find one in the dollar spot or in the clearance section and add some pizazz to your writing tablet! 

It's a quicky chicky easy DIY to do! 

You'll need:
Super cute Washi tape
Notebook ( I hear moleskin works, but i just used the regular paper kind)

1. Set out your notebook(s).



2. Eyeball how long of a strip you'll need. Then adjust the tape where you would like it. Start with one corner of the notebook with the washi tape. Press firmly. Fold the tabs to the under side. 


3. Do two parallel strips of tape. Then  tear a very long piece off. you will then want to make that one perpendicular to the others, you'll then wrap it around to the other side and fold under.


4. Then you will want to put a small piece on the top corner aswell. 

5. Stick it in your purse or in your desk at work, and Enjoy using it!


Stripes:
1. Add washi tape in parallel strips all the way down the notebook. 

2. Fold the washi tape under. 

2. Ta-da!!!




Hope you enjoyed this! Happy Friday!-Ryn
