washi tape frames

And no, the answer is not spray paint. Which is odd, because the answer is almost always spray paint, but not this time…

washi frames


I’m talking washi tape! Gold washi tape, in my case, but any color/design will do. The last couple of months, whenever I wanted to add a little style and color to my frames, I reached for the washi and I’ve loved the results each time.

All three of those frames above started out as standard, white, Ikea frames (which are the BEST, in my opinion). Two strips of tape per corner is all you need for a high-end, high-impact look.

Oh, and on the far left frame? I just added some gold Sharpie marker on the mat to add even more interest.
