Say goodbye to Washi Tape clutter! Make a quick hanging storage system in just a few easy steps. Organize your craft supplies with this simple DIY.

Struggling to organize your washi tape rolls? My friend Amy from The Happy Scraps had a genius idea!
On a craft day, she brought the cutest DIY washi tape hanger that kept everything neat and easy to access.
Inspired by her, I decided to make one for myself. Now, I'll show you how to make your own quick and easy hanging washi tape storage!
Instructions
Use a heavier piece of cardstock and punch with a paper punch.
The shape of the punch doesn't really matter, it just needs to be larger than the core of the washi tape. Mine is a 1.75-inch circle punch.
A circle can also be cut by hand if a paper punch isn't available.
Use a hole punch to add a hole to the center of the paper-punched shape.
Cut a 16-inch piece of ribbon and tie a knot on the bottom.
Bring the ends of the ribbon together and push through the center hole.
Tie the ends of the ribbon into a knot, then cut off the excess ribbon close to the knot.
String the ribbon through the core of the rolls of tape and hang!
You can even vary the length of the ribbon of these washi tape holders to make them long or short. It is a perfect solution!
Great for crafters and organizing their crafting space!
Frequently Asked Questions
Washi is a decorative adhesive tape made with thin Japanese paper.
My favorite thing about washi tape is all of the colors and patterns it is available in!
Since this is a tape, and is self-adhesive, there are so many things you can do with washi tape.
It can be used in crafting, journaling, and with stationary.
Apply it to paper for a colorful stripe, or wrap it around a piece of wood to make a handmade piece of home decor.
While at work I applied Washi Tape to my iPad keyboard, lotion containers, claw clips, and stapler.
Washi Tape is a common crafting supply found at almost any craft store, like Micheals.
Amazon also has a HUGE selection of colors, patterns, and widths.
