So I happened upon this magical assortment of paper tape while I was shopping for cat food, goldfish crackers, and soda pop at Target. The bright cheerful patterns and delicious colors caught my eye as I wheeled my cart past the office supplies on my way to the checkout. I did a little gasp when I saw them. A happy dance ensued as I put the tape in my cart and continued to the checkout. SCORE!!
After I bought this unexpected find of sticky goodness, I brought it home and joyfully covered this little cardboard tube. I'm not sure where this little tube came from. It's been hanging around my house for a while. It looks like a mailer tube, only smaller. It has white plastic plugs on both ends and seem to be a perfect container for keeping my crochet hooks all together in one place.
Woot! Woot! My little hooks have a fanciful home. Oh happy day!
That's super cute! And perfect for your crochet hooks. I'd heard there was washi tape at Target -- thanks for showing it. I'm thinking there will be a little Tar-jay shopping this weekend! ;-D

Very cute. And cheerful. I bet your hooks are quite happy in their new home (everyone loves a cheerful home, don't they?!) Check out Attic24's blog, too. She made some very cheerful teeny, tiny buntings with her colorful tape. Thanks for sharing!

Adorable! At Target? How much were they? I've been searching everywhere for Washi tape that doesn't cost an arm and a leg!

Where was all that Washi Tape when I was looking for it?? Had to make my own instead.
Your little hook home is so cozy and colorful!

Oh my goodness. I have a serious addiction to those tapes. Especially the ones designed by Tim Holtz. *swoon*
