Get Back to School with DIY Washi Tape Chalkboard

Filed Under: back to school, BLOG, DIY, The Spectacular Summer Blog Hop Tagged With: Back to School, Craft, DIY, Spectacular Summer Blog Hop, Washi Tape

Here in NY we are knee deep in summer vacation, warm weather and more.

Also, as most know, I am happily a part of The Spectacular Summer Blog Hop.

Spectacular-Summer-Horizontal

Today’s post is my second and last contributing post for this awesome blog hop.

Have no fear though there is still much more to come with this blog hop and will be continuing to share the other amazing bloggers’ work here with you through the end of the month. 

But now back to the issue at hand.

See soon enough the school bus will be pulling up once again in the mornings. Therefore, we will be back to school before we know.

On the Cool Bus for After School Snacks

I am trying to slowly prepare us for it in all sorts of ones.

One such way is a fun, but easy DIY craft activity that my kids could help me get to work.

This craft uses Washi Tape, which most who know me know just how much I love this stuff. Plus, my kids absolutely adore using tape for all purposes, especially Washi Tape.

Washi Tape Supplies

The DIY craft, we are excited to share today is using Washi Tape to decorate a wooden chalkboard.

Chalkboards and school go hand-in-hand.

I actually found a small wooden chalkboard at my local craft store, AC Moore already put together and just waiting to be decorated.

    I have yet to dive into Washi Tape! I can hardly believe it myself but it’s true. I have so many crafting supplies I’ve forbidden myself from purchasing any more until the end of the year πŸ™ Your chalkboard is adorable. maybe I should rethink this no-buying-craft-supplies rule πŸ™‚

    • Janine says

      August 3, 2017 at 3:10 pm

      Aw, Mary I am addicted to Washi Tape and seriously keep trying come up with more Washi Tape ideas now LOL!! πŸ™‚

    We actually start back to school on Monday here. Madison will begin her Kindergarten journey. This craft is super easy to make and we both can do it together. Maybe I just might and have her do her work on it for “fun”.

    • Janine says

      August 4, 2017 at 6:43 pm

      Wow, we don’t go back until after Labor Day next month. But still love the idea of having Madison do her work on this. But how is she already in kindergarten?! Seriously are kids are growing up too fast!!

    This is super cute! We started BTS last week πŸ™ Boo, but at least I had this cute tutorial to help!

    • Janine says

      August 5, 2017 at 5:14 pm

      AW, sorry you started back up, but glad this will help still πŸ˜‰

    The Washi tape makes the chalk board look so pretty! Great idea. I’m going to use the tape to freshen up some things…..thanks for the tips. Happy weekend! xxoo

    Love Washi tape – it is affordable and you can do so much with it. Great little project if you are feeling like you’ve run out of things to do with the kids on summer days. Add a shopping trip for kids to pick out tape, and you can kill a little more time:)

    • Janine says

      August 7, 2017 at 8:26 am

      Great idea, Seana and definitely also agree about Washi Tape here, too πŸ™‚

    Oh my goodness, this looks ridiculously cute!

    For years there were washi tape crafts and I couldn’t find washi tape in our stores here. I would say in the past year it’s become VERY popular because it’s EVERYWHERE!

    Love this Janine! Thanks for sharing.
    xoxo

      Thank you for sharing for me and hope you can make this soon, too Jennifer!! xoxo πŸ™‚

    • Janine says

      August 8, 2017 at 6:51 am

      So do we Leah here and always amazed though how many other places start up way before us and end way earlier than us still!
