How to decorate a Paper Mache Letter with tape

I love a quick craft project and this one does not disappoint.

To decorate a letter with washi tape, start by deciding what color palette you want to use. I wanted all different shades of green tapes, so I stopped by my local craft supply store.

I ended up selecting a paper mache letter P and a handful of tapes.

(Ah, I sure love those sweet chubby little hands.)

Next, you simply start wrapping the letter with your washi tape.

I think it gives more interest to wrap the letter in various directions, but you certainly could wrap all the taping going in one direction – almost like stripes.

You can see below, I did a few additional patterns in opposing directions to mix it up and add some interest.
